Life at 13+mths

Times DOES fly ... God how many times must I repeat that to myself (and the world)... Our Little One is 13+ mths old! hahahhhah.... from learning to walk/crawl around the house.. his newfound gym is the stairs in the house... up goes the protective mats and the gate and tons of other baby proofing stuff around the house... but it has been fun chasing Our Little One around the house (erm.. right.. sometimes it HAS been fun... try 1 out of 9)

Summer 09 - Part 2

Ok.. we have FINALLY finished our summer travels and are FINALLY home in the sands, back in Stepford-ville... luckily Our Little One managed to get some sleep on most of the flight.. meaning we got some zzz-s as well (Thank you!!!!)

It was an outstanding trip to the US to see family.. we ate and shopped and ate and shopped and ate and shopped... but we STILL managed to fit into our pants! (Yippeee!!!) Love the sales and outlet malls and NC BBQ! We sincerely thank all the great NC pioneers/inventors of vinegar BBQ (pulled pork)... the taste is out of this world!!! Fanta-Bulous!!!! nothing quite like it ever!!!! It was so good I ordered and ATE a WHOLE POUND of pulled pork on our very first trip to the BBQ restaurant... (just pork, nothing else) and managed to squeeze in room for a juicy steak (medium rare) off the grill in the evening.... yes it was a culinary delight on every level....(if you can't tell by now how MUCH we LURVEeeee that stuff)...

here are some of the FOOD pictures that we took to showcase the trip.. and more on my other website ...

Have a great summer everyone!
