Spring Break

We went to the zoo, and Sarah got to come with us since it was spring break. Rylee, Karlie, Liam, and Jake came too. They got to see the new baby ducks and the peacock all spread out.



They were all trying to get close to the ducklings. I think they counted up to 27 babies.

Camping Trip



We went camping a few weeks ago with my friend Ronda and her family. The girls got to play with their friends for 3 whole days! There was a creek with a rope swing that the girls loved!




I have a picture just like this from when I was little. Karlie looks just like my cousin Monica did, and my girls look just like me and Jennifer! (I was always jealous that Monica could have long ponytails!)


Liam and Molly were playing in the garbage cans. They were so happy!





A butterfly landed on Sarahs leg, she thought she was SO special!




Megan finally had a baby shower! Rachel and I put it on at Rachels house. We made it for the kids, so the girls had such a great time with all of their friends!

Such a happy baby!

Such a cute face!



Rachel got her some new shoes, they are SO tiny!

I made a diaper cake.


Someone grabbed my camera and took a shot of me.


The girls playing a game where you race to see who can drink all of the juice from a bottle the fastest.


Ronda opening up presents with Megans video in the background. Rachel put together a video with pictures of Megan, it was really a great present!

We had some really yummy food!



Rondas 30th Birthday!


Ronda, Rachel, and I celebrated all of our birthdays. We went for breakfast, went shopping, bought some dresses, had our nails done, and then had sushi for lunch. It was SO much fun!


Way Behind....


A cute picture of my Molly Cake.



I attempted to take the girls picture on the beach. It was super foggy, but the girls did a great job. We will try again when there is no fog. Sarah had fun dancing and being free.

Heather found a ladybug.


This kind of picture was my goal, but with the fog, everything looks yucky and grey.

Not Mine.....

Sorry for the confusion... Megan is not our baby. She is my best friend Rondas. When I get to hold her I do like to pretend though....

Pictures of Megan.... Oh she is so cute!

I got to take a bunch a pictures of Baby Megan. I had such a great time, thank you Ronda! She is 7 1/2 lbs now, and 3 months old. She is doing great! For those of you who dont know about her, she was very early, and only 2 lbs 14 oz. when she was born. She was in the nicu for a month then came home and is doing wonderful!

She is even cute when she cries!




Such a beautiful face....



The zoo

We have been to the zoo alot already this year. Here is Molly with her buddy Jake.
Here is Molly trying to show me that "blood is coming out of my eye!"

Trip to Aunt Wendys in Simi Valley

We went to visit my Aunt Wendy and Uncle Wes and their family. The girls love to go there, they climb trees, pick oranges, play with frogs, and all their animals. This time we got to see Baby Lola, Wendys new granddaughter. The girls had a great time talking to her, singing and dancing for her, and just loving her. Lolas big brother Gabe was there too, he is in Kindergarten like Sarah, and they all played pretty good.


Aunt Wendy pushing Molly. I thought I had gotten a better picture of her and the kids, but I guess not.


Heather entertaining Lola, she is a really good baby.




Here a few other pictures that were really cute. I was having fun playing with a new lense for my camera.

Do you think they are sisters?



Sarah lost more teeth


Sarah was very proud of loosing more teeth. She lost 3 teeth in 4 days. She decided she likes to "yank them out".

Gymnastics

I have been taking Heather and Molly to an open gym at a gymnastics center. They love it obviously. All of the equipment is real competition equipment, they just use mats to make it little kid friendly. Molly is a dare-devil. I am having trouble keeping her from running on the high beam!Molly practicing her Michael Jordan moves.

Heather doing "strong arms", before flipping over the bar.




They let us do this one of the days. The kids pull each other around and try to keep their balance.


Molly on the high beam, ready to jump off the end.


Heather is doing very good. She was able to do a cartwheel on the low beam. The teacher put a pad around it so it was a little wider, and she was landing her cartwheels just like a pro!


Did I say she was a daredevil????

Heathers first day of Preschool


Heathers' first day of preschool was a very rainy day, but she was super excited. The first day was the week of valentines, so she had a party the FIRST day! What a way to start it off!
