Summer lovin'

He loves the sand. He loves the water. He loves "splash." But most of all, he loves his $6.99 Walgreen's lifevest.

Want me to take that off? "Nooooooooooooo!"

Bye Bye Grandma! Bye Bye Papa!

While Jeff and I headed to the Islands for my parents' future reality TV show (you're hearin' it), Marco spent the weekend with the cousins (check out visits with Clara and Joey & Tommy) and Grandma and Papa.

Papa says it only took a few hours to discern Marco's talking. And as always, Marco came away with a new nugget. This visit he picked up, "GO GIANTS! Go Giants Basketball!" Well, close enough. See Jeff''s Facebook page for that video.

He was so sweet when we arrived to pick him up. He immediately gave hugs and kisses to Grandma and Papa, grabbed our hands and said, "Mama, Dada, I want walk. Bye Bye Grandma!! Bye Bye Papa!!"

Proof of Grandma and Papa adventures:

Thanks for the babysitting everyone - truly a group effort!(The monkeys.)

I love Dammy.

"Grammy" started as "Monny" and recently became "Dammy." Marco loves his Dammy's house.

Hmmm... think my Mom is going to kill me for this pic?

Cat naps

The ability to have a quick nap anywhere. Marco continues to display how obviously he favors his mother.
