A perfect day for swimming

It was so hot today that Tatum and I decided to hit the pool. Shauna's dad Rick had given Tatum this floaty suit last year and it was a bit too big but this year it fits great. Except that Tatum had some trouble moving around in the suit. (kind of like the little kid in the snowsuit on The Christmas Story)
Here's Tatum before she toppled over due to the floaty suit. :)

Tatum had a wonderful time at the pool and loved splashing in the water. We also found a floaty ball left there from a nice neighbor so that made the pool experience even more fun. Now we just have to work on our swimming strokes and maneuvering in the floaty suit. :)

The wagon o' fun!

We went to a friends BBQ where Tatum met some new boys. The one in the wagon is Roan and the two hit it off right away. Almost well enough to share sippy cups!

Nicole was such a good sport and dragged the wagon around the party, yahoo!
Wow, what a ride! Can we get a wagon Mom, please?!!!!





For the love of lipstick!

Tatum loves her purse and loves to pull out her lipstick and apply it...

But what's this? I thought it was play lipstick? Oh, mommy found some fun hot pink lipstick and helped Tatum apply it, so beautiful. Beauty pageants here we come! :)


Tatum meets James

Tatum meets her new friend James Carlin whose only 7 weeks, so cute! And finally, another boy in the group!

Fun filled week

We spent a busy but fun week up in Irvine. It started with a play date with Tatum's two BFFs Aubrey and Mattie. Look at how nicely they sat for the photo!


Then we went up to visit GM (that's Shauna, Tatum's God mother) and had a yummy lunch at Good Stuff down at the pier, some shopping and some wonderful appetizers for dinner. Tatum was a bit on the hungry side that night so she had 2 sticks of cheese, applesauce, Turkey Vegetables, crackers and a taste of frozen yogurt, yum! Here she is eating from a big girl plate!


Saturday, Tatum had another play date with her BFF Mattie. Mattie was trying to teach Tatum to walk but as you can see, Tatum wasn't cooperating. :)

Then we met Jenny and Mattie at the Irvine zoo on Tuesday and enjoyed the goats, bears and story time read by Grandma!


Oh the fun one can have with a baby!!
