More family vacation...





Before I show more pics & tell more stories about our fabulous family vacation to Myrtle Beach here is a quick Mia story! =)

When Mia wakes up I always ask her if she slept good & what she dreamed about. Over the past month or so she started telling me about her dream before I ask-here is our conversation.
Mia: Dream puppies! or Dream 'bout puppies!
Me: You dreamed about puppies! What where they doing in your dream?
Mia: Eat a bone.
Me: Yummy! What else?
Mia: The puppy was rolling around in the grass!
Then we usually end with lots of panting, barking & puppy kisses! ;) Oh so very cute!

Myrtle Beach!
This trip was an early birthday present from Hali (Chris) to me! Thanks Love! =) I found Happy Birthday signs everywhere I went (courtesy of my amazing hubby!) I found one on my airplane seat, in the hotel room & on my pillow at the hotel! So sweet! =)

Our hotel was on the beach so everyday we would go to the beach for awhile and still be back for naptime. Then while Mia was napping we could listen to the ocean or sit on the balcony & look at the ocean.

We celebrated my early birthday, Daddy's Day & our 4th anniversary at Myrtle Beach!

Daddy's Day was fun & relaxing! Breakfast, beach & a yummy dinner! Mia woke her Daddy up with a: "Happy Daddy's Day" Mia told him that every morning & during the day the whole trip & a few times since we have been back! So sweet Baby! =)

Mia was SUPER excited to eat this muffin! Wish it were a bit bigger though! =)-


Mia and I were playing around & she put her finger in my nose, so of course I had to return the gesture & take a pic of it too! Hehehe!


We went to a small zoo & they had otters! Yay! Pics from the zoo...






THE BEACH!
We had a great time at the beach! Mia loved to dig in the sand, look for shells and splash in the water. She would say, "Mia all wet" or "Hands all wet" or "Feet all wet" She kept us informed of what body part was getting all wet! ;) I could definitely be a beach bum!

Lifeguarding!


Camera was too low, but Mia was ready for the pic! =)






Thank God for the beach!


At the boardwalk there we lots of fun stores & the best store was a delicious candy store. We let Mia pick out something...and I think she has my love for chocolate! ;)






Aquarium! We had alot of fun at the aquarium! Mia still talks about the sharks.








Self portrait!


Happy 4th Anniversary!




No place to put your camera? Just set the camera timer & let your 20 month old hold it! No worries! You even get cute little knees in the shot! ;)
