Playing in the Rain !!

The first morning that we were in Myrtle Beach it decided to start raining right when we got to the pool. Needless to say that did not stop Pearce from having fun .... Val striped her down and she had a blast running around acting crazy !!

Ice Cream Lover ...

Pearce really wanted some ice cream tonight so we gave her a little after dinner and she wanted no help from her mom or dad . The funny thing is that she got EVERY LAST OUNCE that was in the bowl ... she is a mess !! She is growing up so fast it is a little scary ... but I do have to say that I love this age so much . Every month I think it is such a great age but I think this is one of my favorite ... she is a very affectionate child who is always giving us kisses and it makes me melt!! I try to enjoy every hug and kiss she gives me because as we all know (if you are a parent) at some point in our childs life it will stop and we will have to beg for those kisses !!

De-De and Aunt Amanda Come to Visit!

De-De and Aunt Amanda were here all week with Pearce and she had a great time. In fact, I was at my tennis match today but Matt said Pearce was crying pretty hard when they left. Its such a great thing that SO many people love our child so much -- I could not ask for a better family.

So, Pearce got SO spoiled this week by her grandma and aunt ... I dont think she needs anything else for a long time. I think one of her favorite gifts was her new "house" ... she loves going in there and saying "I'm home" ! Thanks to De-De and Amanda for a great visit and we cant wait to see them again very soon -- I know that Pearce is missing them greatly !!

July 4th Weekend ....

We spent the 4th of July with The Hinsdale Family and had a blast. On the night of the 4th we went over to some friends of my sisters and had a great time ... there were tons of kids around so Pearce had SO MUCH FUN!! In fact she was having such a great time that she got to bed VERY VERY late (I think it was around 11 and was still charging) ... which for those of you who know Pearce she goes to bed at 7:00 on the dot !! Needless to say she was very quiet the minute we got in the car !

Earlier in the day we took all the girls to Greenville Country Club to swim ... Of course, Pearce enjoys walking around talking to everyone for a while before even getting into the pool. The club had a DJ since it was the 4th and the little girls put on quite a show ... it was so cute !!

Visit with Sara !

One of my very best friends was in town from New York and Pearce adored her visit with Aunt Sara. We hope to see her again very soon !!

BBQ at Ka-Ka and Reg's House !!

The Hinsdale family was in town for the weekend and we had a great time. My aunt and uncle had us all over and we really enjoyed our visit with each other. Of course, Pearce LOVED being with all her family and can never get enough time with the girls. It is so cute to watch these little girls grow up together -- her cousins always know how to entertain her to the fullest!! We are totally amazed how well they all get along and love each other !!

Gracyn's Birthday Party!

Pearce had a really good time at Gracyn's birthday party the other weekend . She would not do the slip n slide but checked everything else out that was there ... her favorite part was giving the dog numerous hugs and kisses !!
