A few of our 1st's

What a big weekend we had for the 4th of July! It contained many firsts for Kailyn, as well as mommy and daddy!

On Thursday evening, Aunt Kelly and Uncle Jamie came up to visit and stay the night. The next morning Jamie and Jason went off to play golf and Kelly and I had a fun filled morning with baby. We packed her up in the BabyBjorn and took a walk to the neighborhood pharmacy with all the dogs! She slept the entire 2 block walk. Next we took her to the local Shoppes in Avondale to help Kelly find fun clothes.

Kailyn helped Kelly pick out the dress seen here:

We then packed up the car and drove the 45 minutes south to Crescent Beach for the night. This was the 1st ever "long" road-trip. She didn't fuss the entire time, actually she slept the entire time...but what else is new!

Once we made it to Crescent Beach, that evening we went for our 1st ever walk on the beach. That didn't go quite as planned and actually she cried through the majority of the trip. It was not because she was unhappy or uncomfortable like her daddy would have liked us to believe. No, it was because she was hungry, like most all of her cries are about!

Saturday afternoon after a lazy day of watching tennis and the back of our eyelids (Kailyn), we drove back to Jacksonville to watch the fireworks down the street from our house. It seemed like a great idea at the time, but apparently the majority of the westside of Jacksonville decided to come to the Ortega Bridge to watch the fireworks as well. We walked the 5 minutes down to the bridge and Kailyn was awake for the entire show. Granted, I don't think she could have cared less, just as long as we didn't take the bottle out of her mouth she was fine.

So many firsts for little Kailyn Paige. Hopefully she will enjoy the many more that are coming her way because everything is so much more fun seeing the first through the eyes of your child!

She looks so tiny in her daddy's arms

Silly faces for daddy (because those are NOT mommy's hairy legs!!)

Content face...

...not so content face!

Someone found the ceiling fan
