6 months pics!

Landon turned 6 months old on Sunday and we had pictures taken. He took some adorable pictures, and my friend Holly and her baby Jenna came with us, and we had a blast! Landon is now eating solid foods and Loves Bananas, Apples, Squash, and many other things he has tried. We love trying new things and seeing how he reacts to them.


Landon, Me, Holly, and Jenna! Holly was my college room mate and Jenna is about 6 weeks older than Landon!
Landon and Jenna! They had so much fun grabbing at each other and playing with each other.

San Diego

We went on Vacation to San Diego over the weekend! We had a blast and really enjoyed ourselves. We went to the Zoo, The beach, The USS Midway, and a few other places around town. Here are a few pictures. Sorry there are quite a few I just couldn't decided which ones to show you. We decided on the drive home that we want to go back soon and hit the spots we missed! The weather was absolutely gorgeous, it couldn't have been a more perfect weekend.

Zach, Landon, and I eating dinner on the bay!


Look Zach can fit in a torpedo tube! This was taken on a Russian Submarine that they had set up as a museum. Only Scott and Zach went in this submarine, the American one was tight enough for me.


Scott and Landon taking a break in the shade from touring the USS Midway.


Landon and I in one of the door ways on the USS Midway. It was alot of fun to tour the Aircraft Carrier, it was huge especially when carrying a 17 lb baby on your front :o)



Scott, Zach, Landon, and I sitting at RT's Longboard Grill on Pacific Beach. We came here to get t-shirts b/c as most of you know we are HUGE Deadliest Catch fans, and this is where they filled this year's "After the Catch."




Zach at the beach for the first time!



Landon in the Ocean for the first time! The water was 69 degrees so this was as far in as we went.



Zach "driving" the submarine.




Scott, Zach, Me, and a sleeping Landon at the San Diego Zoo. Do you see the Panda bear in the background?



Scott and Zach petting a giraffe, with Tristen our guide. We went on a behind the scenes tour and got to pet and get up close with lots of different animals..it was a blast.



Zach feeding the Giraffe, Silver. It doesn't look like it, but they tug hard when they take leaves off of the branch!

Landon and I taking a break at the San Diego Zoo. He was being super cuddly :o)



Landon, Zach, and I at the San Diego Zoo! Landon wasn't so fond of the hat, though it kept falling into his eyes.


Mommy and Baby Koala.



Panda Bear. I have now seen Panda Bears in both locations in the U.S. San Diego and the National Zoo in D.C. The boys saw their first Panda's here in San Diego!

Happy 4th of July!

We wanted to wish everyone a very Happy 4th of July. We had friends and neighbors over to BBQ and hang out. We had a blast! Landon was so busy playing and hanging out with everyone, that he crashed about 1/2 an hour after everyone left, around 7 p.m., which rarely goes to bed that early! I am now working on finishing up my school work for the week so I can start on this next week since we visit the Geneticist on Tuesday and then go to San Diego on Thursday for our vacation!

I am so excited to go to San Diego. I have never been to California, and I have been dying to go to the San Diego Zoo since I was little. We are also going to go to the beach since Zach has never seen the Ocean besides Galveston, TX and that is so gross it's not even worth counting. Scott wants to go on a Harbor Tour so we will do that too. I am secretly hoping that we can go on a Sunset Dinner Cruise too, but we will have to see if we have time. I am slaso dying and really hoping we go to the Longboard Grill where they filmed this year's "After the Catch" I really want to get a T-Shirt. For those of you that don't know I Love, Love, Love Deadliest Catch! And our wonderful friend Garry got me a t-shirt from the Lockspot where they were filming "After the Catch" before this season!I can start myself a collection :o)

In baby news, Landon has start bulldozing! He will stick his butt up in the air whith his legs and head still on the floor and push himself forward with is feet. it is really cute to watch. He can also pivet himself around to look in all directions. We are not far from crawling and being mobile, which means we need to start baby proofing our house. I found the baby gates I want for our stairs. Our neighbors have them and they are amazing. I am going to order them off of Amazon once we get back from San Diego. Landon and I alos have Thrush. I do not wish this on anyone. The poor guy is so miserable. He has it on his tongue and his poor little butt, and I have it around my nipples, from nursing...can we say miserable? But we have meds and just have to wait for them to do their thing.

Anyways, I digressed, but I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend!
