Eastern Shore Style

I took a trip to see Nana Mary and she certainly knows how to do things right in Cape Charles. There were toys, a table that was my size for eating and drawing at, PLAYDOUGH!, and a little couch just for me with Elmo on it. I could not have asked for more. Oh and we went to the pool too! Such a good time. Getting there can sometimes be a bit boring but mama does a pretty good job of entertaining me from the front seat, as long as she's not busy telling dada to slow down.

Balancing Act
Now wait, the trip gets even better. My aunt and uncles were there! Let's see - there was Aunt Becky and Uncle Thomas and Uncle David. I always have such a good time with them. And we're always so busy - playing in the backyard, reading books, wrestling, having screaming contests. This is when I was enjoying some quality bonding time with Uncle Thomas.

And it gets even better yet. I went swimming in the bay! Oh my gosh the waves were so much fun. Each time a wave would come, dada and I would scream as the water would splash our faces. We really had fun out there and out there really means OUT THERE! I looked out and all I saw was water, water, and more water.

Swimming in the Bay
Better yet. I really had fun with the Abby. I see dogs all over the place back home but I'm usually in my stroller and don't have a chance to play with them. Abby was right there for me to play with and that meant a lot. So much that I gave her a kiss to say thank you.

Kissing Abby
I know I'm only, what, not even two? But I do know how to appreciate some of the finer things in life. I mean I have a pretty nice ride in my Bugaboo, I am quite the little traveler (Hawaii, Florida three times, Chicago twice, South Carolina twice, Virginia three times, LA three times and hey I'm there right now), and my parents really are all about me because when I look around all I see are pictures of, yep, me! So yes, it's good to be me but I try not to let it get to my head because at the end of the day, nope, wait, I'm still me! Hey this is a pretty good deal. Sitting back, relaxing, and taking it all in, in LANDEN'S WORLD.

Taking It All In

Landen - there is always a place for you here, whenever you come visit. And there will always be toys. There will be small toys, big toys, quiet toys, toys that make noise, toys that you can be creative with, toys that you can pretend with......... because I like toys, your dad liked toys and so did your uncles David & Thomas. And I had such fun too with you and your mom and dad and Blankette. I love you, Nana Mary
