Convenient bow holder

I always find hair bows in the car and diaper bag!! Anytime I find one in the car, I clip it onto the air freshener. The other day we were driving and I noticed how funny it looked. But man, it's SO convenient!!!

P.S. Don't mind the HUGE crack in our windshield!

O'Learys Seafood Restaurant

For Father's Day Jon's awesome sister Katie got him a gift card to O'Learys Seafood restaurant in Annapolis. The restaurant is RIGHT next to the Wharf! We just barely used the gift card this past weekend! Jon's Aunt and Uncle were here visiting from Georgia, so we all went out! It was delish! The only seafood I will eat is Salmon, and they had an amazing salmon dish! More pics to come of our fun weekend with our guests!!

P.S. Those are mosquito bites on Scarlett's leg! Not bruises LOL. (Just to clarify so people don't think we abuse our child!!!) :)

I feel like the luckiest women in the world! My husband is so good to me, I could not ask for a better man. I find that everytime I ask a question like "Can we go get ice cream?" or "Can we stop here or go there?" His response is ALWAYS "Of course! My baby gets whatever she wants!" Wow, how did I get so lucky?? When I ask why he responds this way, he says simply put "Because I love you." He is constantly telling me how much he loves me and that I am the most important thing in the world to him. Awwwwwwwwwwww!

This was probably my favorite activity we did on our trip! Mostly because I am a HUGE animal lover. We went to a park that was just full of monkeys running around everywhere! We bought nuts, bananas, and corn to feed them. The monkeys were so adorable! They would run right up to us and grab the food out of our hands with their cute little fingers! At one point the monkeys actually jumped on us and we got to hold them. As much as I love my husband, I was a little tempted to leave him behind and bring home a monkey with me instead! I love you Jon!!

We spent of total of 10 days in Thailand. Five of them were spent in the city, Bangkok, and the other half was spent on the beautiful beaches of Thailand. One of our activities was spending all day on a speedboat touring different beaches and also snorkling! There is a movie, "The Beach" (with Leonardo Dicaprio in it), that movie was filmed on an island called
"Phi Phi Island". It was so cool to visit the actual place the movie was filmed! Jon and I watched the movie before we went so we knew the significance of where we were! It was a beautiful place, my only complaint was way to many tourists!

I thought it was pretty ironic that I was the one to get sick on our honeymoon. I was as little paranoid while we were in Thailand, so I tried not to eat anything weird and I always washed my hands and then used hand sanitizer. Jon on the other hand, was completely opposite. My only conclusion is that Jon is more immune to the bacteria outside of the U.S. since he has been to Iraq. After being deathly ill for several days, I finally went to the hospital. I was lucky enough to see an American doctor. They did some blood tests and the results came back that I had a bacterial infection in my intestines. The doctor told me that I either had ecoli or salmonnela. He said the most common way to get this is from drinking ICED drinks. They do not use bottled water for ice, so the ice melts in your drink and your drink is then contaminated.
