Beach Day Take Two

Yesterday was another beautiful spring day in the Panhandle, so we headed back to the beach. This time Chris got in on the fun. He even went swimming, the water was "warm" to him at 65 degrees. YIKES! Maya and I stuck to dipping toes only. The Hyches are definitely taking advantage of this warm spring weather.

Beach Bunny

Maya and some of her friends had a play date at the beach today. I can't believe she actually wore those sun glasses. Don't they make her look oh so cool? She might even like them because she left them on her head and did not try to eat them. As you can see in pic #1...she is full on crawling since yesterday. She was on the move today - LOVING the sand and even dipped her toes in the water. Pic #3 is Maya and her pal Melia - they are totally posing pretty for the camera!!

Cousins!

Maya got a little quality time with her parallel cuz today. She was enthralled with him, and he even smiled at her a little bit. What cutie pies we have on our hands!

7 Months Old

Maya Rose is 7 months old today...ALREADY!! Standing is her new favorite pastime. It happened again today for a couple of seconds. We also went to the Dr. today and she weighs 15 lbs 11 ozs. and is 26 inches. Chunky Monkey! Can't believe our little girl is already 7 months. Time really does fly when you are having fun.

I thought this picture was really cute. She discovered her tongue this weekend when trying to eat dry cheerios. Thanks for the pictures, Poppy!

In The News

Last week our StrollerFit group was on the local news. You can click HERE to view the broadcast. I am waiting on all of the calls from talent agents from Maya's big debut...she is a natural star.

Taking a Stand

So I didn't catch it on film, but Maya stood up today without being held for the first time. There were witnesses...it happened at Tia Amanda's house and Grammy was also there to see it. It was only for a few seconds. I think Sammy might have been more excited about it than anyone that she could stand by herself...probably because that means she is one more step closer to steamrolling with him. Anyways, I thought it was bloggable material, even if we don't have a pic to prove it.

Family Weekend

This weekend Memaw, Poppy & Mimi came down from Alabama to spend the weekend with us. Don't be fooled by Maya's face in the pic above, she had an awesome time. Memaw, Maya and I went and watched Chris' softball game on Saturday. She did lots of playing and "almost" crawling. When they left on Sunday, they headed back to SNOW in Tuscaloosa!! We miss them already.
