Everyday is a new day......

So everyday Charleigh does something new, something that makes me laugh out loud. Yesterday as she was eating her ice she started singing "Ice Ice Baby..." Just like her Grandma does when ever Charleigh asks for ice.
I think about how many wonderful firsts I have gotten to share with her, being a stay at home mom. I really love my job(most of the time) and I love the medical feild and all the crazy stories that come into the hospital on a daily basis but I love being at home rasing my sweet girl way more. I know that I am very lucky to have an understanding husband who agrees that the most important job we have is raising Charleigh. He has to stay out tonight and we are missing him, so Ben if you are reading this tonight, Thnaks for all you do for us, we love you

MYRTLE BEACH

This is outside the aquarium, Dad said that it "wasn't his thing" so he went and scouted out our next adventure: The Imax safari.

She is such a little follower. She does what we do and it never ceases to make us laugh. ARRRRGGHHHH

Ripleys Aquarium

Charleigh kept wanting to dive in with the sting rays. OH NO YOU DON'T, we will not be pulling any Steve Erwins on this trip, thank you.

This picture is over looking the shark and fish tank that we were under in the other pictures."just keep swimming, just keep swimming, swimming,swimming,swimming" Name that movie.

UNDER THE SEA

RIPLEYS

She kept coming back to this aquarium, it had starfish, urchins, and coral. I guess the bright colors kept calling her back.

Look at her sweet lil' reflection in this and the next picture.

SHARK!!!!!!!!!!!

A million memories....

.....and a million pictures to go along with them. I know, I know. There are so many pictures from our vacation that I love that I couldn't decided which to show you'all. I was going to put them all on a slide show but then they wouldn't show up on a disc when I save it for her baby book. And each picture tells a different story, so here they are. All 256 of them....

They are so cute together.

GOING UP!

She is counting with her daddy, this is her 2. They would count to three then either fall down inthe water or, he would throw her up in the air.

She looks more like she is pretending to be a little devil, than counting to two.

Here we go!!!!

BEN AND CHARLEIGH HAVING FUN

Ben wants Charleigh to become a stunt double. Don't worry he only dropped her five times. Well only five times on the concrete.

SHE WENT INTO A SPIRAL TWIST ON THIS ON

SHE LOVED BEING ABLE TO SIT IN THE WATER.

SHE ALSO LOVED BEING ABLE TO SWIM ALL BY HERSELF. HOWEVER, WHEN WE WENT INTO THE BIG POOL SHE THOUGHT SHE COULD SWIM BY HERSELF THERE TOO AND SHE WOULD GO UNDER.
