Back in Alabama

We had a blast in NYC but it was great to get home. It was a LONG time to be away from Owen (6 days). I think I was pretty much running to his room when we pulled into the driveway Wednesday night. Kevin worked during the days and I spent my time just enjoying the city. I was able to go to Live with Regis and Kelly one day (thanks Shelley!) and got to see Katherine Heigl and Jordin Sparks. Kevin and I both went to a David Letterman taping and saw Kevin Spacey, Jesse James, and the Flatlanders. I also spent a lot of time shopping! We also ate at some really cool restaurants (including Tao from SATC, Valbella (Regis' favorite Italian), and Buddakan (Big and Carrie's rehearsal dinner was held here in the SATC movie). It was a great trip and I still think NYC is one of my favorite cities- but it is always great to get back home too!

I did not take my good camera because I didn't want to have to haul it around everywhere (sad, I know). My Canon Elph still got some good shots- just not what the big one could have done.

NY State of Mind

Kevin and I are headed to NYC tomorrow morning with The Shirt Shop. I am not as excited as I usually am about going. (I can't imagine why?) Usually, I have made reservations, booked plays, etc. by now but so far we have dinner plans one night. I know once I get there I will have a blast-it is just the leaving part that will be hard. New York is one of my favorite places to visit and special to us since Kevin and I got engaged there. I am going to meet up with some old friends too, so it should be a fun trip. Gigi has come to keep Owen and I know they will do great! The stroller will probably gets lots of use this week!

On another note...look at Owen's new trick!

Praise Baby

Owen loves watching his Praise Baby DVD. (I can't imagine where he got his love for tv from!) I got a quick video this morning of him watching it while I made up my bed. Enjoy!

4th of July

We had a great time at the beach with my family last week. I took a lot of pictures but here are a few of my favorites...

Tucker and Ashley were really excited about the 4th!

Owen is really not enjoying this too much- maybe because it was cold water and I made him wear sunglasses.

My Mom and Dad took turns strolling Owen everywhere last week. Our condo has covered parking so they stayed in the shade most of the time. I would be very interested to know how many miles were put on that stroller!

Owen got to finally meet Amy!

Pap-paw gave Owen his very first baseball!
