Happy Easter!

We went to my Aunt Rebecca's house for an Easter Egg Hunt/Party on Saturday. She does an amazing job every time she hosts a party- this time was no exception! Food, games, prizes, family & friends. Here is the "Easter Bunny", herself:

Rebecca and David's gorgeous kids: triplets Kavan, Konnor, and Karis, and big bro Keenan.

This is Gail, Rebecca & Lynne's mom. Doesn't she look great? She does swim aerobics, so I'm about to sign up for some classes!

5 Months!

Guess who slept 11 hours straight last night???!!

More Pretty?

"More pretty?" is what Kendall told me when she wanted to wear her new tutu that Auntie Katja gave her.
But Kendall is pretty no matter what she wears.
And gorgeous, sweet, amazing, silly, fun, precious.

Sisters

Mommy is jealous...I want a sister!! Look how cute they are...I can just imagine them sharing toys, clothes, makeup, secrets. Some people have reminded me that it might not be that way. Siblings are siblings and siblings fight. But I can't help it- I am jealous. And I love them so much.

Happy Birthday, Derek!

You're the bestestest brother ever. Not to mention Uncle, Daddy, etc. You pretty much rock. We love you!!



"Wait, you're how old??!"

Der Neue Mittelpunkt

California Girls (And Guy)...

Last year sucked. This year is looking pretty good for the beach...


It was Kaylee's first time at the beach. Last year she was swimming in amniotic fluid instead. Time flies.
Kendall was afraid of the water at first. Then she watched me play with an empty water bottle for 2 seconds and she wanted to try. Then we couldn't peel her away from the water.
We like Daddy.
He's a pretty cool guy.
Kaylee couldn't be more bored out of her mind.
See? Bored. Water is old hat for babies. They just lived in it for 9 months.
Here's Kendall tanking up on sleep during the 20 minute ride home, only to skip her usually 3 hour nap upon arrival. She's a true California girl!

Big brothers are the best!!

Baby Esmeralda will read your fortune....

Developmental Milestones, Baby!

Yes, that is Real Housewives of OC in the background: don't judge! Look at the concentration, the effort.

Kaylee can now grasp her toys and move them to her mouth. Moving right along the developmental spectrum, my girl!

Happy Birthday, BFF!

Happy Birthday to my BFF Hizzle fo Shizzle. Love ya, girl! xoxo Aly
