Love those Wildwood Days - Boardwalk

We walked the boards after dinner so Natalie and Zach could go on some rides. Even Pam was convinced to take Natalie on the Sea Serpent- with much coaxing and soul-searching! If you look very closely you can see Pam's face as the roller coaster drops! :) Zach watched in amazement and nervousness. Then he felt better after his first ice cream cone. Natalie and Daddy rode the teacups and Zach, Natalie and Pam rode the merry-go-round. What a great night!

Happy Birthday to Mom Mom Millard

Saturday was Mom Mom Millard's birthday. Pam, Mom Mom and Poppy all enjoy Gyros (year-os), Natalie had Chicken Fingers and Zach trashed my cheesesteak sub. Overall it was a very nice day and a beautiful night for the boardwalk. Here are some pictures.

Love those Wildwood Days - Beach

Saturday was our first beach day of the year and Zach's first real time on the beach. Many more to come including fourth of July weekend! :)




Zach and Daddy walk down to the ocean. Love how little Zach looks in this picture.

Zach loves the beach and his Mommy!



Zach trying to be like his big sister!





Look Boss, De Plane, De Plane!!!




Right before Natalie shook her towel and sand went all over Pam.

Go Phillies!

Just a little fun...I wanted to see what daddy's hat would look like on our little man.

A little pre-Wildwood fun!

Took this shot on Thursday night. Could you tell the kids were excited about heading to the shore tomorrow? It was too cute. Natalie and Zach really love each other!

Check out my patbelly

We have learned our first body part. Ironically when I was this playing this video for Pam, he was listening to the audio and every time we said belly he started patting his belly. Next up. Dancing Zach. :)

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all of the Fathers out there! What a wonderful day. Pam let me sleep in and then made me my favorite breakfast of blueberry pancakes. Then I played a game with Natalie while Zachary took his nap. She beat me pretty badly in Memory which really tells me that I am losing my memory. (That and Natalie has a tendency to cheat!) Natalie got some new clothes and then we ate homemade turkey burgers, pasta salad and corn on the cob! Yummy! Of course I never thought to actually take pictures of me with the kids on Father's Day but I did get some nice shots of the kids! :)

Strike a pose.



What do you mean I look like I am up to no good???



Zach trying to tell Natalie that its entirely too hot to snuggle!

Happy third birthday to Jackson!

We had Jackson's third birhtday party on Saturday afternoon. It was tough enduring the heat but it was still a fun time. Zach wasn't too fond of the swing the first time he tried it, but this time he loved it! We got Natalie later on that night and she got to go swimming in the Poppy's pool. She was so gracious!







I even caught Zach checking out the chicks!

Finally!!! :) :)

Just when you thought your son was too stubborn to walk on his own, he starts taking multiple steps. Pam was able to take a few videos, this one was small enough to post.

Ooh, he's a little runaway

Here is a video of Zach's showing how interested he is in learning how to walk. He is getting better though. Just yesterday he put two or three steps together so we're getting there. ;)

Zach loves his front facing seat.

Phew. I can stretch my legs, finally! Such a big boy, now!
