Couch Climbing

Danny loves to scale the couches and chairs in our house and give me heart attacks all day long as a result. He enjoys it so much and is so proud of himself though. What's a mama to do besides work on his safe dismount?!?

Motor Vehicles

As always, Danny loves his weekend bike rides with mom and dad. He's ready!

And he loves riding his motorcycle, a hand-me-down from Alan at Jimmy's office. Vroom vroom!

Bedtime Baseball

Love this little baseball uniform footed PJs. We even had to break out his plastic bat for a little swing practice before bed...

Insta-Lately

I've recently really gotten into Instagram. Here are a few of my favorites these days. For those of you who follow me on Instagram, sorry for the repeat of blog fodder!

TMuffin & Music Class

I belong to this mommy Meetup group that does various outings throughout the week. Our favorites so far have been a playdate at this free-for-all play center called TMuffin and a Mommy and Me Music Class at the Wilmington School of Ballet. So excited for the month of October and all the fun Halloween themed activities we have planned.

TMuffin fun...

Anniversary & Sunday Funday

September 19th, two thursdays ago, was our 4 year wedding anniversary. How'd we celebrate? Well Thursday we took advantage of a generous gift card to Havanas from Martha and Ron. Havanas is where we had our rehearsal dinner four years ago - a little different experience now with Danny - and one of our favorite restaurants on the island. Yum! Thanks again Martha and Ron!

Saturday we had reservations to Manna in downtown Wilmington and a babysitter for the night (Nana), so we decided to really make the most of the free time and had some great wine/beer and antipasto plate at my favorite wine bar, Fortunate Glass, first.

And then dinner and dessert at Manna was AMAZING, but what came next was arguably better... drinks at Satellite with Matt and Kari, in town from Charleston that night. The rest of the pics in this post are all sourced to Kari. Thank you, thank you, thank you Nana for taking Danny for the night!

And then with Matt and Kari still in town the next day, we had a sunday funday. Complete with two TVs in our small living room and lots of yummy food. The Panthers and the Redskins both played at 1 - Matt and Jimmy were like kids on Christmas. Too bad the Redskins lost :(

Danny and Oscar "dadoo"

Shame on us for not having a single picture of the happy couple on our special day, but a very belated "happy anniversary to us" regardless! It's been a great 4 years - so excited for what the future holds!
