Turks and Caicos

In mid-June, we went to Turks and Caicos with my parents and brothers for a week. Noah was so excited about the airplane taking him to the beach. We had a great time. The house we rented was lovely and the beaches were awesome! My sweet red-headed baby didn't get sunburned, but his daddy did!

Noah is now confused about "beach" water and "pool" water. He thinks all water that is clear like that is "beach" water. Obviously we haven't spent much time on the Gulf Coast!

This is the real live flamingo we saw one day while we were driving around. Noah and I got out and got as close to it as we could. We were both very impressed!

The beach picture!

Noah enjoyed playing in the pool at the house.

Memphis

At the end of May, my mom, Noah and I went to Memphis for a few days. We had a great time!

First, Noah got to see the ducks at the Peabody march into the lobby.

Then we found a neat little cafe to eat at near our hotel. We stayed downtown on the street car line. It was very nice, and we could walk to lots of places.

Then, we took Noah to the Children's Museum. It was very cool. Noah loved everything. He got to drive an airplane and grocery shop, but his favorite was sitting in the police car. We almost had to leave him there!

One night we rode the street car around downtown. We all enjoyed ourselves.

Noah has been obsessed with basketball lately, so I made sure to take him to see the FedEx Forum. He loved all of the balls sitting out front.

We went to Memphis to shop, but we had so much fun taking Noah around to do fun things that we didn't get much shopping done. Oh, well. Our trip ended with a visit to our long lost friends, the Taylors. We were so glad to see them. Thanks Andrew and Jennifer for coming to see us!

Graduation

My brother Christian graduated from Ole Miss at the beginning of May. Go Christian! He will be attending Medical School in the fall. Noah had a blast at his graduation. He sat through all three ceremonies pretty well, and he sure did enjoying being the center of his family's attention. Good luck when baby brother comes!
