"Look at all the 'ish!"

While we were down at the beach we took Brooklynn to Ripley's Aquarium in Myrtle Beach. She absolutely loves fish, so you can imagine how much fun she had watching all the different kinds. Watching her enjoy her first aquarium trip made the admission price well worth it! Oh yeah, and the sharks we're really cool too.

Even more...from the beach.

Just when you thought you'd seen everything from our beach trip, here's even a few more photos for you to check out.

More from the beach!

Here are some more photos from our beach trip last week. Enjoy!

Somebody loves the ocean!

We just got back from a wonderful week at Pawley's Island and boy did Brooklynn love the beach. As soon as we took her down to the ocean the first evening, she ran straight to the water and didn't want to get out. For the rest of the week our time on the beach was spent chasing after our little ball of energy who figured that she could run straight into the ocean without parental supervision. Look for more photos soon. Our internet has been down, so sorry for the delay.

Look at the 'do!

Even after 3 haircuts I have managed to get Brooklynn's hair in little pigtails and, boy, does she look cute with them. I have been waiting forever for a chance to do something with her hair, and now the day has come!

Come on, baby, just dance with me...

Brooklynn loves to dance. Whenever there's music in the room, she's always in the middle of the floor showing everyone her moves. I just had to capture a little bit of it and share it with everyone.

Finally, something to keep her busy!

This past weekend we made the trek out to Toys R Us and finally got Brooklynn her own little kitchen. She just absolutely loves it and can't stop playing with it! We put it in the kitchen right by our fridge, and it seems like she's always in there cooking something up for us...okay, maybe she just opens all the doors and drawers and dumps everything out, then puts it all back in...such a little busy-body!

It's carnival time!

We took Brooklynn to a little carnival downtown tonight and it was so much fun. She got to go on her first "ride" which was a little train that went around a pretty small circle. She must have been the youngest one on there, but she was such a big girl and rode all by herself. She loved it so much she had to ride it again...she then proceeded to clap her hands each time she came by us. We also gave her her first taste of cotton candy, which she pushed away with a yucky face at first, but then became addicted once she had her first bite.

Little sleeping beauty...

Brooklynn is so cute at nights when we put her down to sleep. She can't go to sleep unless she has her "dee-dee" (baby). I went in one morning last week to wake her up and I just had to snap this picture. Covered with her blanket and baby in hand...she was sound asleep.
