Flamingo Invasion

Our neighbors are raising money for a local gym and this years fundraiser involves flamingo yard art. It is soo much fun!! They sneak around and put lots of plastic flamingos in your yard and you have the choice to remove them or send them to a neighbors yard. Last night we were invaded by the flamingos!!!

Miguel and I actually caught them in the act. I saw a shadow go by the front door and thought someone was trying to break in. So Miguel rushed over and turned on all our outdoor lights and foyer light to try and scare them off. He heard lots of yelps and giggles and quickly realized it was the flamingo squad! I think we really gave them a fright!!


Susanna enjoyed exploring all the flamingos today. She was so cute walking around with them since some were the same height as she is.


She kept calling them ducks, but I think that is because duck is the only bird name she knows right now, haha!!


By the way, did you notice in the pics that we have grass now! The yard is finally finished and we love it!!!

Party Animal

For those who havent seen this in person, Susanna is really walking now!!! What a big girl :)


Susanna had a VERY busy weekend!! It all started Friday night with dinner out with Mommy and Daddy. She generally does pretty good at restaurants and this was another good trip. However she was seated right in the walk-way so as everyone passed she would either tap their back or rub their belly... it was funny for whoever walked by but really embarrassing to Miguel and I bc we had no way to get her to stop... she has really fast hands! Another new restaurant trick is saying "HI" to everyone and she will not stop until they say "HI" back. She will turn around in her seat and make sure she talks to everyone!! This too is a little embarrassing but we decided that only mean people would get annoyed with a cute baby saying HI :)


On Saturday Susanna started the day at Little Gym. Then after a LONG nap we headed to her friend Mackenzie's first birthday party. It was sooo much fun and Susanna had a great time playing with the birthday girl and all her other friends.

As soon as we got home from this party we went straight to the next... another first bday party for a neighbor. Susanna had her first taste of watermelon and LOVED it!! She was soo cute to watch eat it too, yummy yummy.


We also recently learned that Susanna can eat an apple all by herself. Until now I have been pealing the skin and cutting it into bite size pieces for her. Well no more work for me, she can do it all by herself!!! Once again, she is really cute to watch eat :)
