Now I can really break in my running shoes!

For a long time Reid did not want to learn to ride a 2-wheeler...he was scared...not anymore! Tonight he got on and with just 1 push he was off and going! A little more practice staring on his own and he'll have it down! It definitely helps to be able to touch the ground easily, I think this is what gave him the confidence he needed.

I'm so proud of my Mom!

My Mom graduated with her Associate's Degree in Respiratory Therapy with Highest Honors!


This is at her 'pinning'. Her class had a special dinner where they each were spotlighted and received a pin. She is well-known for her baking skills!

The Family!


The family and grandma and grandpa!

The girls!


Her class (they were the largest class this program has ever graduated!)

We're so proud of you Mom!

HairCuts!

We all desperately needed haircuts so Saturday was hair cut day!
Enjoy some before and after shots!

I had every intention of going lighter, but that failed miserably, so I had to fix it and go darker!

Happy Easter!

HaPpY EaStEr!!!!

No Way!

I can't believe I have a 6 year old!

Happy Birthday
to my crazy, hyper, loveable, curious, sweet, rambunctious, smart, imaginative, friendly, goofy, energized, silly little man!
(So I'm a little late posting this, his birthday way on Wednesday 13th)

Newport Beach-1st hot day

Last Thursday it got over 90 degrees, so we decided it was a beach day. We went with a group of students from Jed's school and had a blast!

 When A isn't used to the situation or the people she is around, she always has this serious look on her face. She slowly warms up and starts to smile...but I promise, she does smile a lot!

 I think it's time for a new swimsuit!

Digging for sand dabs!

Spring Break-Part 1

Daddy and R had Spring Break the same week so we wanted to play...unfortunately the weather was to be cold and rainy...fortunately this lady...

And this fun family...

came to visit and play with us (they were hoping to escape the cold weather)! SO sun or no sun we decided we were going to have some fun.

Tuesday we went down to Redondo Beach so Jed can show off his fishing and crabbing skills. We got there too late so we couldn't play on the beach, but the pier was pretty fun.

We got a hotel that night about 20 minutes away from the pier so Daddy and R were able to do some night fishing and crabbing while the rest of us tired folk went to bed.

The hotel was also 20 minutes away from Long Beach where we went to...

Spring Break-The Aquarium of the Pacific

Wednesday we went to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. We have a membership to it and the boys never get tired of going! There's always something new to find.

 

Their faces match!

 Daddy kept A most of the time. He loved showing her all of the animals and she loved looking at them.

 Proof that I was actually there!

 He can be such a goofy kid sometimes!

 AHHH! A shark is going to eat me!

 

Don't worry! I'll eat him for you!

They are definitely related!

 

She was so tired...Daddy could always get her to sleep!
