B.F.F...We certainly hope so!

We love that our little girls are so good to each other. Emily is a wonderful big sister and Lauren adores Emily, mostly loves to watch her dance. We have 2 sweet girls and we are hopeful that they will always take good care of each other.


Growing Up (too fast)!

Lauren had a big moment this week. She graduated to a big girl chair at the table. I know she still looks pretty tiny but she loves being able to sit with everyone else at dinner. It's crazy how fast she is growing but it is kindof fun that we now fill up our little table.


She loves her food!

San Diego Wild Animal Park!

One of Emily's favorites-Giraffe.

This last weekend we took a little break and went to visit Deborah & Allen & family in San Diego. We love to go visit them and go as often as we can. While there, we took the girls to the Wild Animal Park. We had a great day, the weather was perfect (we even had a little rain.) The wild animal park is a great zoo. Emily loves animals but only wishes she could get closer. Jason took tons of great pictures but we'll just share a couple. Probably the highlight of the day was seeing the 2 day old elephant. I'm not sure there's anything more cute. It was so tiny (a mere 230 pounds) but was up walking around.

All of us with the rhino statue.

Dancing Queen

Thursday Emily and I started a Mommy and Me ballet class (unfortunately that means I really do have to dance.) Emily loves to dance so we thought this would be great for her. Her first day was a little rough but we are hoping she warms up. She loves to dance and especially loves her dance clothes, except the tights. The first day we tried to get her to put on her tights she cried so hard she threw-up! Drama. We did found, though, that she will wear her church tights but not her dance tights, which is an improvement over no tights. She has talked about class a lot since we went so we are hopeful that is a good sign.

Sweet Baby Girl!



Our little Lauren is such a sweet baby. So far she is a lot like Emily was, smiley, happy, and very friendly. She is a very content baby and especially loves playing with Emily, we'll see how that goes.

Dress-up time!

Emily loves to dress up. She is always finding our shoes, bags, glasses, basically whatever she can get her hands on. She is especially into purses right now. Such a girl. She always makes sure that she has all the necessities in her bag: sunglasses, camera, make-up (hell0-kitty of course) and any jewerly she can find.


Daddy's shoes, mommy's purse!

Saturday at Santa Monica Pier!

Mommy and Lauren! We all got to ride on the big Ferris wheel on the Santa Monica Pier. It was a beautiful day and we got great views from the top of the ride. Emily especially loved looking at all of the boats.
Daddy and Emily!
The whole family riding the Ferris wheel on the pier.
One of Emily's favorite things is to ride carousels. She loves the "horsies." Daddy always gets to be the one to ride with her because mommy gets too dizzy. Mommy is still working on her the moving photography. In my defense, this carousel was moving really fast. The lady working there told us that at top speed it goes 10 mph per hour. Not bad.
