Liv cut FOUR MOLARS LAST WEEK!!! Poor baby & mommy! She's SUCH a cheeseball!

Audrey used this straw all day and kept it in her special straw-holder. Gross...I know.

KT has the BEST hide-and-go-seek spots! We can never find him. The other night we seriously searched every single room so thoroughly...he was under Liv's crib with a bumbo in front of his face. So funny.

 Family dinner at Grandma Bev's.

 Our girl

 I think she looks like Kyle.

Happy 8 years!

We took a little Laguna Vacation for a night for our anniversary. We stayed here, and absolutely LOVED it. It's a block away from the best spot on the beach, the best restaurants and a movie theatre. We didn't get in the car a single time. So relaxing.

1st stop...redbox. We watched two movies on dvd and one movie at the theatre.

 How fun is this balcony?!

 Kyle was determined we eat here and it was so yummy.

Thank you Nancy!



Special Disney Day

We had an EXTRA special Disney day this week. We finally got to meet Merida!

When Audrey was two and started getting super into princesses she'd always talk about how she wanted long straight hair like the princesses had. I wished there was a curly headed princess (surprised there wasn't one...there are so dang many of them). So...when I heard about Merida I was so excited for my curly-headed girl.

When it was our turn, I started telling Merida about how we've been wishing for a curly-headed princess and she was SOOOO SWEET about it. She cuddled Audrey right into her arms and told her all about how they have the same eyes and hair. And how beautiful and special she thinks Audrey is. I, started crying...I couldn't even talk to her. I'm sure she told all her friends that night about the psycho mom at Dland! Sorry! It was our best day, crazy-tears and all!  

They gave each child a quick lesson on shooting an arrow and let them each shoot one. SO CUTE!

Liv's special place is Small World. She moves and grooves.

 The end of our best day. Watermelon slices on our way out. They each had a completely clean rind when we got to the tram and were DRENCHED in watermelon juice.

Lately

Audie B

 Liv is OBSESSED with shoes...she has been since she could grab her feet. She's always been so happy to put on her shoes, even though she goes nuts when I dress her. Now she begs all day long to put on everyones shoes. As soon as they are on, they have fallen off again and the whole cycle repeats itself, all day. She tried to put one on herself and this is how it turned out. She was so happy though and so was I, because it actually stayed on this way. She ran around the house like this for so long.

 Audrey couldn't have cared less about this dress, until she saw a video of her Aunt Kacey dressed as Ariel in a wedding dress singing the Ariel tune. Now she lives in it. She's watched Aunt Kacey's video so many times and had to make her own video. Aunt Kacey is the perfect Ariel. I don't have Kacey's permission to post the video so I won't. 

 KT went out of town for a few days on a surf trip so we prepared a homecoming party to welcome home our guy.

Livie's hair is finally coming in a little and curling at the bottom. She's her own little person, all the way down to the hairs on her head.

Mother's Day

I LOVE Mother's Day! It's like employee appreciation day and I'm the employee. A big thanks to everyone, especially KT who made my Mother's day so special. Kyle babysat all weekend, made breakfast with the girls this morning and gave me lotsa presents.

Audrey is a big girl now and she sure showered me with love, all made on her very own. It was extra special. Kyle gave Liv a piece of paper to do what she wanted with and she smeared food on it...perfect representation of Liv. I loved it.

Bruiser

...this poor kid always has more than one bruise on her head! So sad! She's such a tough little nugget though. She gets right back up and keeps on going.
