Fun Times





We had some great weather over the weekend and the kids got the chance to play outside lots! You can see Miss Abby is pulling herself up all the time and standing independantly and even thinking of taking her first steps someday soon! The boys are into wrestling and giving one another a hard time constantly...that's what little boys are for, right?

Abby's First Time Swimming




Our SUPER NANNY




Here are some photos of our SUPER NANNY Aubrey...We are hoping not to drive her too crazy and keep her around for the next 10 years! She started working for us in September and has been a HUGE blessing! We love Ya!

Our Disney Adventure






Okay, So I went a little crazy on the Califonia Pictures! They were all so good that I couldn't choose which ones to post, so I posted them all! We had a fun trip (for the most part) to Newport Beach and Disneyland with the kids last week. Abby unfortunatly was throwing up and sick most of the time we were there. we also had some challenges with cold temperatures and RAIN, but we tried to make the best of it. Thank goodness we brought our SUPER NANNY Aubrey. She kept us all sane and from killing one another. We did have a good time but realized that doing Disney even over a few days with so many little ones was a challenge! We may wait a few years before our next trip. Hope you enjoy our photos. This trip is a reminder to us that there's nothing better in the world than putting a smile on your child's face.






More California!

The Latest Dish

I thought I would write a little on the latest...Unfortunatly, our babies have all been so sick for the past week. Everyone was starting to perk up at the end of last week and then we landed in the hospital Friday night with poor Miss Abby who has RSV AGAIN! It was a sad experience that I am glad is over. She was so cute just smiling at the docters and nurses each time they would enter the room. The respitory therapist was the one she didn't like. They had to suction her a few times and after the first time she saw them coming! I am happy to report that everyone is now almost to the healthy side of things again, thank goodness. The best part of this is that the kids used it to get their way to a new trampoline which they are loving. We even took a family nap on it this weekend!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Just an Update

I thought I would take this time to update everyone on what is happening with us lately.
Isaac is loving preschool and can even write his name perfectly. I think we showed him four or five times how to do it before he got it. Kids pick up on things (good and bad) so fast. It is fun to watch his sense of independance grow. Isaac is such a big helper especially when it comes to his true love Abby. It is fun to pick him up from preschool and see how adored he is by the other kids and his teachers. We are proud to say that after four years we finally have him sleeping independently in his own bed with the occasional treat to fall asleep with me. Now we have to get Abby out of our bed! Ethan by far has grown up faster and more than anyone in the family. He is talking so much and surprising us each day with new thoughts and words. He lives for Super Mario and is excited to have a Mario Party when he turns 3 in a few months. Now that he is talking we are able to see this great imagination he has. One of my most favorite things about Ethan is that he loves to go to the store with me an help get groceries. He randomly will get his jacket and shoes and come to me and say, "mom, do you want to go to the store?" Abby is crawling and into everything now. She loves the trash cans and outlets so we have to watch her. She refuses to eat baby food which has presented us with a new challenge since she only has 2 teeth. We are all captivated by her beautiful smile and bright eyes!
