Like Mother, Like Son

People have been telling me lately that Daniel looks like me. I didn't see it until today. Today while Daniel was sleeping my mom took a picture of him and we compared it to one of me and it was a little crazy to see the resemblance. (If you couldn't guess...I'm the one in the dress ;)


What is even crazier to me is that I was only 1 week old and Daniel is almost 3 months old :) I don't think he looks like me as much when he is awake though. He sure is cute and sweet though.

Do you guys see the resemblance?

Dan's Trip to the Ocean

This last weekend we took Daniel on his first overnight trip! We went down to Charleston to visit grandma and grandpa. I was super nervous about his first trip but he did really well! He had his own bed to sleep in which was really nice. Thankfully my mom saved my brothers pack and play so now when we visit we have somewhere for Dan to sleep and play. I also have to say that the best part of visiting was that my mom got up during the night with Dan. He only gets up once but it was super nice to be able to sleep uninterrupted and Mike and I really appreciated it :) Thank you mom!

While we were there, we decided to take Dan to the beach for his first visit to the ocean! It was perfect timing because we got to walk on the beach and play in the water for a while and then as we were walking back to the car it started to sprinkle a bit and the second we were in the car it started pouring down rain so our timing was perfect :) I think Dan enjoyed his first trip to the beach. We put his feet in the water and he liked it (no surprise really...this boy loves water) however, he was sleeping and wasn't really a fan of having the sun in his face waking him up.






After the beach, we got to introduce Daniel to some of our friends down there. It was fun to show him off. I can't wait to be able to take him back to the beach when he can actually enjoy it and play!
