Bug Bite and a Shiner

The day after we got back from my mom's house, Daniel woke up with a huge, swollen red dot on his cheek...a mosquito bite! Poor baby, with that sensitive skin! To top it off, the next morning he was riding Daddy like a horse and fell off...only to get a shiner on the other side! We better not take him in public or people might start to talk! ;-)


The Big 2-5

On June 6, I turned 25...a quarter of a century old...whoa! We went to my mom's house to celebrate, and she got my favorite kind of cake...Chocolate Doberge!!




Daniel...a budding musician.


Trying to fill Daddy's shoes!

Bouncing Tigers

There is a place in Baton Rouge where Daniel loves to go and play. It's called Bouncing Tigers. It is a huge inflatable playground...and they have two rooms--one for smaller kids and one for bigger kids. He loves to run around and play...especially in the ball pit.

Here he is on the pirate ship.

Taking a snack break.

Memorial Day Weekend

A little late, but here it is. We went up to Pineville for the weekendto relax and watch some UFC fights. We went over to Adam's brother's house and spent some time outside with Daniel. That boy loves being outside, no matter what he is doing!

Eating snacks and watching TV.


Just staring...
After the weekend in Pineville, we spent actual Memorial Day at the Rabalais' house for a barbecue. We grilled steaks, burgers, and hot dogs, and had potato salad, chips, and yummy watermelon. In between cooking and eating, we took turns playing Rock Band. This is Daniel singing. Actually, in this picture he is kinda eating the microphone...but later on in the day, he actually did sing!

Pooh Bear Visits Barnes & Noble







Winnie-the-Pooh came to visit our local Barnes & Noble a while back. Daniel LOVES Pooh bear, so of cuorse, we had to go. He wasn't too interested in story time, but as soon as he caught a glimpse of that bear, he was hooked!

Pictures at the Park

A few weeks ago, Daniel and I met up with some friends at Highland Park. I then went on a little picture-taking spree...enjoy!
Brennan on the slide.

Daniel will climb all the way up this thing by himself, but he will wait at the top for me to slide with him...he won't slide down by himself.

Kate sliding.


Daniel checking things out.



Ayden hanging out with the boys.


Brennan with his truck.


My baby Daniel...I guess he kinda isn't a baby anymore, is he?


Kate on the swing.


Daniel in thought.


How much longer is mom going to have this camera shoved in my face??


I think this picture is funny...Daniel's hair blowing in the breeze.


Juice break at the park...what more could a boy ask for?


Ian didn't like me taking his picture.


Daniel playing in the sand. If you look closely, you can see the Cheeto residue around his mouth :-P
