Happy Father's Day, D!

Wearing his "I (heart) My Dad" shirt Buggy made for him.

Corona Del Mar. Beach Day - June 2010

The Bug's 2nd trip to the beach. Nana came along with us. We were actually on a mission to find a location for her first birthday party next month. I'm still undecided on that - but I do love CDM. Beautiful beach.

We stayed just under 2 hours - and the Bug was super smiley the whole time:

hanging with Nana

Weeeeeeeeeeee! The Beach!

Peace!

Mommy and Buggy at the water's edge

when the wave came, she held her feet up out of the water

Nana lifting Buggy out of the way of the wave (note: gorgeous beach)

Squishy sand on her feet (notice she was appropriately wearing her seashell shorts)

watching wave approach. wave arrives. foot gets lifted.

Enjoying the sun

I don't have a clue what was happening to her hat here:

her new skill: Blowing impressive spit bubbles

Buggy all dressed up last Sunday

wearing her "Bug" outfit. (one of several - we love them!)

same pic changed to b/w - a little blown out, but I sorta like it.

after only a few minutes, she would only cooperate with a toy in hand.

always need something to chew on. She's recently tried to "taste" the cat's nose. The cat runs away before she can though.

Awwwwww

Neglectful

of this blog for the past week that is.

what I've been doing:
http://ocregister.upickem.net/engine/Welcome.aspx?contestid=18085

Entered Bug in the OC Register's "Incredibly Cute Baby" contest. Although it's not really a "contest" of cuteness - more like who's family can click on their picture the most. This is how all the Register's contests work.

Voting allows for 10 votes per minute. So that's what I've been up to. Clicking on it often. I don't expect her to win - but I would like her in the top 5 or so, so that her picture will be in the paper and I can cut it out and put in her baby book. I've become a little obsessed with this. But at least so far, have taken on the burden of voting mostly myself. Haven't bothered any of my internet friends... Yet.

If anyone is interested... she's about 235 pics from the end of the last page (new pics are loaded daily at page one - so she gets shifted back frequently). She's about 29 to 30 pages in front of the last page. So right now the last page is 50. She's the last entry on page 20.


NOTE: I have new pics coming soon - possibly tomorrow morning.

Also, Sydney now has 2 awesome new teeth. The top front ones.

Tried a Buggy "photoshoot" with my new blue background, and ended up with this. Love.
