Gifts from Aunty Kate

Thought you might enjoy these pics of Taija opening her present from her Aunty Kate

Fort Lauderdale Children's Museum

Today we went with some friends to the Fort Lauderdale Children's Museum.  To be honest it wasn't that spectacular of a museum...but Taija had fun.  There was a little Toddler area where she could run around, but most of the stuff was for older kids.  Not to mention there were a million other kids there!

Taija fell asleep while we were looking at some of the exhibits

This was a section of the little toddler area

Fun Day at the Beach

Taija in her wagon!  She decided she was afraid of the waves so we spent most of the time walking around with her in the wagon!

Taija in the car after the beach!

Sailboats - there were a ton today!

Taija's so happy when Daddy comes Home!

BIG smile!

This is Taija's latest face - she squints her eyes!

The other day I took these pictures as Justin was coming home from school. Taija always has the hugest smiles saved up for when her Daddy comes home!

Taija goes to the playground!

Today Justin and Kate (she is in town for the weekend) took Taija to the park while I worked (I was line judging at NOVA). Justin took some video of here going up/down the slide - she loves to climb up and slide down. Sorry our camera doesn't have sound...Enjoy!

Our Place

I thought you all might want to see where we are living these days...

This is Spike looking over the stairs from the little balcony area

This is our bedroom - it's huge! We made a little study area for Justin in the corner. We also have a full bath connected to our room and a big walk-in closet.

This is the spare room/computer room/scrapbooking room/storage room!

This is the cat's area/hall. There is also a 1/2 bath on the 1st level.

This is our front room - Justin and his parents hung up all my pics the 2nd day we moved in! Now it feels more like home.

I am missing pics of Taija's room as well as the dining area/kitchen...I will post some pics of Taija's bathroom too. It's a cute little safari theme!
