Fish Eye

Walking the Brooklyn Bridge early in the morning.

Arizona

Miami

Top 10 things I loved about Miami

1. Staying at the most amazing hotel for 6 nights and not having to clean a thing. It seriously was amazing.

2. Hiding all the Bliss product every day so they would leave more. I know, it's tacky.

3. Going swimming with Poppy every morning and afternoon.

4. People watching at the hotel pool.

5. Walking along the boardwalk with Poppy.

6. Staying right next door to my Sisters salon and being able to walk over and visit her.

7. Cutting baby bangs to hide my hair re-growth and having my sister make me a bright blonde.

8. Getting a tan...finally.

9. Playing tennis with Reyn.

10. Wearing a swim suite. All. Day. Long.

Key West

Top five things from our visit to Key West

1. Staying across the street from Ernest Hemingway's house in the sweetest bed and breakfast.

2. Standing at the furthest southern point in the United States.

3. Poppy wearing the hippest sun hat to go along with her delicious thighs and owning it.

4. Eating Taco Bell in the car on a road trip...the best.

5. Stopping at a beach along the Keys where you could walk way out and the water was up to your ankles.

Poppy ate handfuls of sand and seaweed and loved it.

Sister Emily came along. She lives in Miami.

The Southern tip of the USA Hates the car seat. She's a city girl. Loved the ball I bought her at wallgreens on the way. She was flossing her teeth with it.

Standing up

Poppy is officially pulling herself up to a standing position. Crazy! It's weird because we now feel like there are three people living here and not 2 1/2. She is becoming a real little human. Other mile stones: now eating yogurt, cottage cheese, and pureed meat, feeds herself Puffs, and made herself throw up by laughing so hard.
