Surfside Beach

How do you take 311 pictures in 3 1/2 days???

By having SUCH a cute model...that's how!!

Just as the title says we've been at the beach.

We walked on the Pier








Spent LOTS of time in the pool



This is Chatham's first time with his toes in the sand (this year)

Daddy walked him down to the ocean

At first he wasn't so sure.....


but with a little help from Mama he was running in and out of waves in no time!

We even built a sand castle!

We DEFINITELY have a beach bum on our hands!

More Water Fun

These are all from the Splash Ground at Nevin Park

The Right Place At The Right Time

We went to Nevin Park in Charlotte this past weekend with the Cadwallader's.

It's Race car themed (surprise, surprise)

We got there early enough that we had the entire park to ourselves. So we did a little swinging

But Chatham wasn't a fan.

We climbed on ropes, walls, and planks.

We slid down poles and climbed up ropes.

By the end of the day EVERYONE was worn out.

There is a Splash Park there too that we enjoyed- pictures of that will come soon!!

Water Day

Friday was 'water day' at school for Chatham

They set up water tables and let the tots have at it


Chatham, of course, watched the others for a few minutes before deciding what exactly HE wanted to play with.

He splashed- He played with animals- and OF COURSE he played with Cara (she's there in the blue polka dotted bathing suit)

but after alllll that...

The cups won!

Just like he does in the bath tub, he went to town dumping cup full after cup full of water onto the ground!!

Although much to his surprise it wasn't frowned upon on Water Day like it is in our bathroom.

Piano Lessons

Poppy has been teaching me to play the piano.....

No one thought I was paying attention, until they heard me play on my own!
