The 4 of us decided to make a "summer wreath" for
our front door...so off to Lowe's and Michael's we
went to collect all our supplies...the kids helped us pick out
all the decorations we needed.

 

The kids were extremely proud of their completed project!
I'm have to admit, i really LOVE the way it turned out!

We took the kids to Sea World for the day this past Saturday
and had a blast, it was so nice having Brian with us...
a lot of times we do the theme parks during the week when its not
so crowded...



Posing in front of the flamingos




Sophia actually look this pic of Bri & I...not bad kiddo!
Maybe we have a little photographer on our hands?!







Riding the water rides with mommy (Noah was not tall enough)
next time hopefully he and daddy can join us

Loving all these summer nail polish colors...feeling like a real girlie girl!

SO behind on the blog, so i figured I would do
a little recap on both of our munchkins.
Look at our little rock star....rocking those cute sunglasses!

Picasso??? Nope just Sophia, painting what she loves to
paint most...rainbows, clouds and moons!

We officially have a little fish on our hands!
We can't seem to get Sophia out of the water
these day's...she could swim all day and night if we
let her.

our little girlie girl got her face painted
at Sea World

brother and sister riding the trolley at the Irvine Spectrum.
Noah is so obsessed with trains i figured he would love the
trolley...and he did! It's a little taste of what the San Francisco
trolley will be like one day! Sophia obviously loved
it too!

Sophia working hard at her ballet practice, her recital is in one month
and she is super excited for the big day!

Sophia is in full swing tennis lessons and loving it.
She is the youngest in her class, but she loves it and
continues to ask for more! She also has been enjoying watching the
8 to 12 year old girls play and I'm loving
watching her LOVE the sport!

My mom resurrected my old Hawaiian dress from
when I was a little girl and of course
Sophia was excited to play dress-up and put it on!
She plans to wear it in Maui next week.

Fun times at Zoomars!
The kids sitting in an old horse drawn carriage.

Our precious daughter, can't believe
she will be 5 in just 2 weeks...mommy
is still adjusting to this, it may take me awhile!

Sophia "Styled" herself...we have a little
fashionista on our hands!

the kids wanted to watch there uncle aka Kavor John play
his tennis match...we had an evening dinner at the tennis
courts...

Beautiful evening in Palm Desert, this was the night of
the biggest full moon in recent memory

I have been so behind on our family blog I figured I
would do a little update on each child!
Noah loves painting, as you can see in the above picture.
He is always asking "Mommy please can I paint"?

There is so much LOVE between these 2 kids!
Noah looks up to his big sister so much and wants
to copy everything she does...I love how Sophia always has her
arm around her bro...the feelings are mutual!

Noah is always so sad in the mornings when daddy leaves
for work, he usually sits on the stairs for a few
minutes by himself and has a little quite
time...this time was especially cute because
he was muttering under his breath "I miss my
daddy I don't want him to go to work".

Noah is one happy little boy!
He is my buddy, we do everything together...usually
lots of running around while Sophia is in school.
This picture just makes me so happy.
He is trying on sunglasses because he said he
needed some for the beach!
Check out that smile!

Ugh...be still my heart, Noah looks so BIG
in this picture it kills me!
And with that bowl cut haircut we got going
on...he is definitely not a baby anymore...

Hilarious photo! We borrowed an extra suitcase
from my parents for our upcoming trip and when
i brought it home and took it out of the car
Noah started running up and down the street pushing
the suitcase around...well if you look close he has some
Kid Binoculars around his neck....So pushing a suitcase
around with some binoculars around his neck, he looked
like a regular Tourist!!! Brian and I were in tears laughing...
Noah you are one funny little guy!

Noah learning how to skateboard in Palm Desert...

The kids and I try and go on lots of jogs
in the stroller or nature walks whenever we can,
this paticular morning was a PJ moring jog for
mommy...and the kids hopped
out of the stroller and decided to go exploring on their
way home. 

If you know our little guy you know he is a picky
eater...it's just beyond anything I've seen. Apparently I
was a very picky eater so I guess this is payback time
for what my parents went through with me.
We are always trying to get Noah to try new things
on this specific day he decided he liked corn dogs!
I will take whatever i can get from this sweet boy!

It's every LA sports fans dream...
Magic Johnson, the best Laker of our generation
is an Owner of Brian's beloved Dodgers!!!

New Water Park

We are so incredibly excited that San Clemente
has a brand new water park in town and the
kids are in love with it!
If the weather was sunny everyday we would
be there 24/7

I just can't get enought of our little guy....

I am incredibly behind on the blog..sorry friends
and family but I have a bunch of pictures to come!
In the meantime Brian, Michelle aka Meech
and I went to a Flogging Molly concert
at the House of Blues in Hollywood
and the above sign was posted in the bar...
I thought it was super cool!

sunday stroll

Our family is 100% ready for summer!!!
We are constantly talking about
the weather warming up and spending our
day's at the beach...it can't come
fast enough! This morning we
were at the beach watching the waves
and praying for summer to come!!!

Posing for the people walking by!

Noah  is obsessed with trains
honestly everyday he asks me
"mommy: you, me, Sophia and Daddy
all go on a choo choo today K"!
Such a cute picture of our little
guy watching the train
pass by

                                                              Stuck inside

Poor Sophia, stuck inside sick all day
with a high fever, our sweet girl...
allshe keeps asking to do is go to
school because she misses her friends

And then there is Noah...super healthy and not
sick this time around thank God...
His new favorite thing is sitting like a
"big boy" at the kitchen counter
playing on the ipad...this
little guy is so smart and wants to do
anything and everything his sister
does.
