Visit with Nana & Grandpa in Tucson

Had a relaxing weekend in Tucson....spent most of the time watching Zoey crawl around

like crazy...

Put silly things on her head...

Check out her early birthday present toys from Uncle John & Aunt Jenny...

Play in the bag the present came in...

Hang out in her favorite Tucson toy (otherwise called "the magic gizmo" by Nana...)

Eat tasty meatballs...

And last but not least, enjoy a bottle before heading back home....

Good times....

Zoey & Mimi

Go D-Backs! (The pink bat returns...)

Random Saturday Photos

Just your average Saturday, but Ducky is just too cute not to take a couple pics of...first she was enjoying some time on the patio (probably the last for the summer!)

Here she was enjoying her favorite 5:30pm ritual of watching the wonder pets with her new found comfy leg position...


And of course bath time!!!

She found Nemo....

And was very pleased with herself...

Thought he looked tasty...

Tried some sushi...

And ended her bath with a duck on her head...

Our Little Reading Monkey

Zoey loves looking at books right now, especially the ones with flaps....she has almost destroyed the one that she is playing with in these pics...

The Cats Meow

We went to the zoo a few weeks ago with Nana & Grandpa and Zoey got this shirt...she just looks super cute in it so I took some pics :)

Wonder Pets

Zoey loves the Wonder Pets!! Her face just lights up whenever she hears it on. Honestly, I love it too....it's super cute. I have a hard time getting the theme songs out of my head. Our favorite character is Ming Ming. This is definitely one of those "you know your a parent when..." moments.... :)

Why Ducky?

Thought I would post the above photo for anyone wondering how Zoey got the nickname Ducky..... :)

A Mother's Day Mohawk

Zoey's hair is long enough again for a mohawk! Yeah! Couldn't resist...

Post Mohawk...just a cute profile pic

Zoey having fun with her Daddy

Visit with Mimi & Pop-Pop and Mason's First Birthday Party!

We had a busy Saturday! First visited Mimi (formerly Granny) & Pop-Pop's for a yummy breakfast.




Then it was off to Mason Brown's first birthday party! How fun! He was a speed demon crawling around the house and wouldn't sit still long enough for me to get a good picture of him. In fact,
my photography skills were lacking quite a bit and most photos I took didn't turn out very well and I didn't take many photos with adults in it....but it was a great party! Lot's of people showed up and Zoey was able to play with some new toys, meet some new people and chase Gus the dog around. She loved it. It looked like Mason was having a blast also---boy did he have a ton of presents! Zoey misssed her afternoon nap though, and we left before he finished opening his presents and before the cupcakes.

Mason looking so big!!


Mike Brown & Zoey

Mason spent quite a bit of time playing with a little fan...

Zoey spent quite a bit of time chasing Gus around

Zoey talking...

Zoey playing with Tanner McCarthy (Tanner is 9 months)

After Gus...

Tanner talking...

Still after Gus...

Mason opening his presents! And still I couldn't get a good photo...

Zoey was exhausted on the way home...I had to hold her head so it wouldn't flop over...
