We stopped at the Bontanical Gardens for a little bit. Didn't stay long since it was so hot, but we got a few pictures. Cailey loved feeding her cheese crackers to the turtles and fish in the Japanese gardens. We had lunch at PF Changes (Yum!).

Birmingham Botanical Gardens
We went to Birmingham, Friday the 18th, for something different.
We stopped at the Bontanical Gardens for a little bit. Didn't stay long since it was so hot, but we got a few pictures. Cailey loved feeding her cheese crackers to the turtles and fish in the Japanese gardens. We had lunch at PF Changes (Yum!).

Cailey's First Day at Mommy's Day Out
Cailey is now going to a Mommy's Day Out once a week at the Preschool that is now opened at our Church called Kidz Alive. Her first day was Aug 17th. Of course I had to take some pictures of her before we left with her new Tinker Bell lunch box and Nikes.
A side note on the lunch box. I made a special trip to Douglasville, GA to the closest Disney store to get this for her on the 15th! I had seen it at the Gallaria a few weeks before when we went to get her ears checked and said to myself "I wish I had a reason to buy one of those". They were only $9.50. And when it dawned on me after school Orientation that she would need one I had to go get one! And I'm glad I did!!
She had a great day at preschool and she even napped with the other kids on her new Leopard print & pink nap mat! She said she had fun!

I wanna be like Aunt Monica!
Cailey had her first Dentist appointment on Monday, the 14th. She went back with the dental assistant all by herself to have her teeth cleaned. Dr. Norby said she did soo good, much better than most 2 year olds. After her cleaning, she came out with a red balloon and a bag of goodies. A New toothbrush and a Dora Tattoo to name a few.
After applying her temporary tatoo (However it's been almost a week and it's still there!)
She pointed at it and said, "Aunt Monca" (Monica)!! No, not really! =)

WE'RE ALL NUTS!!!!
One night before bedtime we were all playing in cailey's bedroom in the floor. This was the same night of the "vintage" pictures and richard started taking some of Cailey & him in the floor and I joined in. They remind me of pictures taken from those photo booths you see in amusement parks & malls.
Ok, here we are. This is the real us!
And you are welcome for the laughs that you get out of looking at these!!

Vintage Cailey
Cailey is all vintage in these photos. She loves to try on dresses, especially this one since she discovered it hanging in her closet. This dress is another of my dresses when I was little. She likes wearing it. And the doll is the same one from a previous post (Naptime). The doll had a slight accident. It use to have red yarn hair, but Cailey tried brushing it and it came off. I haven't sewed it back on yet. Oh, this babies name is Conan Baby. You know, Conan O'Brian from Late night TV. The Red hair. (You'll have to refer to the previous posts with Pictures of him with hair.) Richard & Andrew started calling the doll this and it has stuck. It is soo cute hearing cailey call him Conan baby.
She just had a bath and her hair was brushed but it air dries some kind of Crazy!

Hey Look, Big girl Panties!
Cailey is sporting her new Little Mermaid Big Girl Panties for Everyone! She loves them and they are helping with Potty Training. She's getting closer!!
Look at that Belly Pooching out!
Geezz, pull down your shirt!!

Summer Pleasures
Nothing beats ice cream cones, ice cold rootbeer & some cheese nips in the summer. Of course not all at the same time. However a rootbeer float sounds really good!!
PlayDate
It's been awhile since I've posted any pictures. But I have a good many to post now if I can just get them loaded.
Last Friday me & Cailey went to my friend Erica's house. She has a little girl, Abby, who is almost 3. They had fun playing together.

Atlanta Trip - July 22nd & 23rd
The day after we got back from our trip, I was off to Atlanta to shop with Marieta. I didn't know when reserving this trip that we were going to SC. So this past week had been pretty busy, which was OK!!
We went to the new Atlantic Station. It's really cool. It's like a city within a city. A town of shops so to speak. They have the streets blocked off on the main shopping section and all the parking is underneath it. Above the stores are apartments & lofts. There are also condo's and other Flats nearby and also an Ikea (which is really neat). It's so large that it has it's own zip code! I didn't take any pictures, but I copied some off of the internet. I couldn't find any good ones! We ate dinner at FOX Sports Grill.
This shows the parking decks underneath the city and here's a photo inside FOX Sports Grill.

Myrtle Beach - July 17-19
Our friends Chad & Kate moved to Myrtle Beach on the 15th of July. They both got teaching jobs there. We thought we would go barge in on them and help them settle into there apartment. Unfortunately they wouldn't let us do anything. So we all mainly just played. After arriving Monday around 6 Eastern time we went and ate dinner & went directly to the beach to let Cailey know that we were really at the beach! She loved it and danced all in the water!! Didn't take long for her to be soaked waste down!
First thing on Tuesday, off to the beach!! It was great not having to battle with the wind like our Destin trip.
Richard, what are you doing?? hehe
Tuesday night, Chad had a Band meeting so the rest of us went to Broadway at the Beach. This was a really cool place with tons of stuff!! This is where the aquarium is along with many resturants including the Hard Rock, Planet Holleywood, etc. They also have a movie theater, putt-putt, Kids amusement park, hotels and tons of shopping. There is a lake in the middle of everything and they have bridges that go accross. They have a playground so we stopped to let Cailey get out of her stroller for a bit and play. We ate dinner at Joe's Crabshack. Afterwards they had a huge firework show.
Kate & Cailey
This is the back of the Aquarium.
These pictures are for You Monica!! =)
Wednesday we ate lunch at a place called Dick's Last Resort. The place & the servers just cracked me up! They are all smartallecks! They make paper hats for everyone and write funny remarks or sayings on them. Like Cailey's said "Butt sniffer", Kates had a thought bubble saying "Did I wipe?", I also had a thought bubble saying "These people suck!", Chad's said "I miss prison showers" and Richard's was "Big as a house, hung like a mouse". Funny!
Someone at another table had a birthday. The waitress yells out "Hey, it's this kids birthday! Do we care?" and everyone yells back "NO!". And that was that! =) But the food was really good!
Another trip to play at the beach! Cailey's loves it! This is a good beach to look for seashells, which is what she had so much fun doing with Chad & Kate.
Our last night in Myrtle Beach, trying to decide what to do, we couldn't resist going to the Ripley's Aquarium. We've gone to the one in Gatlinburg, so we wanted to check this one out too! Gotta love the tunnels! After hearing all of us do the Jaws thing, you know what I'm talking about, Cailey would do it when the sharks would come by. She was a little afraid at first, but she quickly got over it.
Well, that was our trip to Myrtle Beach, now Off to Charleston!
