More to do in Florida!

And higher...up to 900 feet. They dipped our feet in the ocean once too!

High and higher...

But not as much fun as she had here! Since my sis is a BIG SISSY and would not go parasailing with me, Adriana volunteered. What a sport! Thanks Drana! We both decided it was quite cool but not the BIG thrill that we thought we would get. Skydiving's next! Wahooooooooooooooooo...

Adriana having fun in the sun!

Somebody missed their boyfriend! Hi Travis!!

Kenz collecting shells.

p.s. I love the way this photo turned out.

Lisa's crab sandwich... I can't believe she ate it!

What a peculiar shell. Wonder if it won a catagory?

On Sanibel Island we collected shells for a seashell contest. Judging was later. Many catagories were won; smoothest, prettiest, uglest, smallest, largest...and so on...oh, the catagory I won: most boring shell. Thanks girls! I love you all.

More excitement with friends! The Church's, Halls, & Goodwins.

Let's eat at The Fish House. Oh, I forgot to add the pic of Lisa's crab sandwich. Check above pic... Oh, can you spot the lobster in this pic? pssst...far left

Linda was in Florida with her sister for the week. Fun!!

Lt>Rt: Linda, Diane, Lisa, Lisa, Julie.

And let's meet Lisa's friends for...hummm...a beer ladies? Do I see a pattern here?

Hey, what a great meal at Pinchers...oh, and a glass of wine or beer.

No, we didn't serve the kids Mille Lite, they were daquiris...non-alcoholic of course.

What else to do? Oh, let's have a drink (or two). These margaritas are FANTASTIC!

From left to right- My oldest niece-Mackenzie, sister-Lisa, Me, youngest niece-Adriana, and Kenz's friend- Mel

So what does one do when visiting Florida...Hey, let's go to the beach! Here we are the first day. You can tell it's early on because Adriana doesn't look like a lobster yet. Yes, my sister asked her (more than once might I add)..."did you put sunscreen everywhere?" ... Well, lessons learned I guess. We all still had fun!

Katie's not feeling good

Katie started having abdominal pain Monday night and ended up in the hospital today. Diagnosis: post-op ileus and uterine infection. OUCH!! She'll be in for a few days. Marcus was sooo good all day today. He's a little trooper. He is staying with Katie at the hospital. Hurry home you two!

More of Baby Marcus

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Thanks for riding back here with me Mommy! Let's go home now...

Let's get another nap in before I go home...

Daddy loves me!

Marcus Allen McDaniel is here!!

Daddy's very good at changing diapers. One last change before we go home.

Proud Grandpa & Grandma Vaughan. Grandma didn't meet Marcus until he was 3 days old because she was with Great Aunt Lisa in Florida. Katie's original due date was the 12th so she thought she could get back in time. Lots of text pics were sent those first 3 days!

The angel sleeps...a lot! Cutey pie!

Daddy-Josh, Mommy-Katie & beautiful baby, Marcus. What a cute family!

Marcus Allen McDaniel was born Thursday, April 2nd at 7:07 pm weighing 8# 7 oz and 19 1/2 inches long. Katie had a long labor and was not able to progress, so he came by way of C-section. Both mom & baby are doing great! So far he is a very good baby.

Grandpa's day off and it's time to play

Weeeeee.... This is fun Gramps! Do more!

Grandpa you're silly! But I love you. Let's play more...

Hold on little guy, you're pretty high up there.

Since Grandpa was on layoff this week he was able to help Grandma with Maxton. We all went to Chili's for lunch. Maxton was very good!

Another fun day! And the Easter bunny was here early...

All this play makes Maxton a tired boy...nap time yet Grandma?

I guess I am kinda cute in these things. hehee

Then Grandma put these silly ears on me. Grandpa tried to warn me they were coming...


Then we had to clean up...gee, these papertowels don't cut it...off to the bath for a little soaking...

First we started off fingerpainting. This is fun! Look Mom & Dad, my first artwork. Does it go on the fridge?

My first cheerio and new blocks!

Thanks for the new blocks Mommy & Daddy! These are really cool. Look how I can stack them (with a little of Grandma's help)

I think I like them Grandma! Give me more.

Come here you little cherrio! They're sooo tiny...

The food was yummy. Thanks goes to Becky, Laci, MawMaw & Felicia! Thanks to Gary, Nick & Josh for setting up all the tables. We couldn't have done it without you!

Where do we put all this great stuff? Better get the baby's room ready SOON! It won't be long now. Less than 5 weeks...

Fun with Mommy & Daddy!

This is fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun... I love you mommy & Daddy!

The upside down little boy. He loves it. Mommy does too!

Daddy you're funny! Tickle me again!

A day with my Grandmas!

Ok, let's play! Wait, I'm falling over...help Grandma!

Is the food here yet?

Who's on the phone Great Grandma Coffman?

I don't want to nap! Let's go out to eat at Red Lobster!

Who doesn't love a baby in the bathtub?

Can I get dressed now Gigi?

I feel soooooooooo clean.

Now that the work is done, let's play! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

I'll wash my face so you don't have to do all the work. I'm a big boy!

Grandma, this water feels just the right temperature. Have you done this before?
