Romp & Roll

Yesterday I took Sam to Romp & Roll for open gym time. He had a lot of fun and really tired himself out.

His first stop was the trampoline.

He had no fear of climbing on everything.

I got a work out too...he wanted to keep swinging on this but he couldn't hold on alone.

This weekend we went to visit my cousins and some other friends down in SC. It was so much colder down there than we expected! We went to a soccer game on Saturday night and I knew I had to bundle Sam up a little extra than I planned on. So we went to Wal-Mart in hopes to find some long johns. They were totally out, so I bought him some white tights! I so hope I have a little girl one day to put tights on...they are so cute. Sam looked pretty cute in them though! He was so tired when we got back to our hotel, he didn't wake up while we undressed him.

Just Plain Cute!

One Year Old

Well, my baby is now one. I can't believe how fast this year flew by. It's been so much fun and challenging too. I wouldn't trade this for anything though, Sam has definately added alot to our little family. Here are some pics from his first birthday. We actually had two parties for him, one at our house and the other at my parents house in Rocky Mount. Sam enjoyed both, but def. put on more of a "show" at my parents. I think his first time having so much sugar def. helped out in that! Oh and I thought I would add a picture of his real birth day just for memories!

I Love Cake!

A Day at the Park

Recently, we have been taking Sam to the park. We have a really nice one close by and the weather has been perfect "park" weather.

Labor Day

On Monday morning we went to Belle Isle with our friends Brian, Alyssa and Andrew. We started the morning with eating Krispy Kreme donuts out on the rocks on the river. Then the guys rode their mountain bikes and Alyssa and I walked the trails. We had such a nice time. I was glad we got their early because it got very hot later in the morning and very crowded. I'm looking forward to the fall temperatures!!! Here are a few pics from the day.

Beach Time

Last week, me, Z and Sam went to Virginia Beach. Some friends of ours own a condo on the North End of the beach and for the last two years have let us use it. It is so nice to get away and relax. Of course we enjoyed laying out in the sun and swimming but it was also nice to walk the boardwalk at night, listen to the bands playing and people watch! Oh and of course eating ice cream!! :) We really enjoyed our time and are already looking forward to returning next year. Although, Z keeps saying we are going back to Mexico, I think he is still dreaming about the fresh guacamole. :)
