One Crazy Month!

Sorry for the overload of pics, but I thought I'd blog what we've been doing over the last month, minus a lot of things that fill our time but I don't take pictures of. My parents came to visit in San Diego in the middle of February. We were able to go down and spend a weekend with them. It was fun to have the come. They came from freezing cold Seattle to enjoy our warm So Cal weather. Unfortunately for them, it was a little chilly but we still had a great time. We made it out to Pt. Loma to see the lighthouse and take in the gorgeous views. Although it looks sunny and warm, it was actually quite chilly.

My sister's family came down on the tail end of my parent's visit and stayed the rest of the week. We were able to spend a day at Disneyland with them. Emily and Lauren had a blast spending the day with cousins. Now everytime we go they ask if the cousins are coming too. So sad!

The end of February was consumed by saying goodbye to one apartment....

and finding new hiding spots in our new apartment. We are finally feeling moved in, thankfully. Thanks to all those that helped with our move!
Lauren's 2nd birthday.
Emily had her last day of dance and we got to go in and watch her showcase all her new moves. It was fun. She has especially loved tap. I think it's just because it makes more noise.

Happy Birthday Lauren!!

So I know I've been a pretty bad blogger lately, with moving and everything but I didn't want to pass up the chance to recognize Lauren's birthday. She turned 2 on Monday and is pretty excited about that. I took her to Disneyland during the day. They gave her a little Happy Birthday pin and then on each ride, the ride attendants would wish her Happy Birthday. It was too cute. She was so excited to have other people know it was her day, she told everyone 'thank you' when they wished her Happy Birthday. I can hardly believe she is 2. It's crazy that she's not a baby anymore. She is a funny kid. So different from Emily is so many ways, yet desperately tries to be just like her. She's my little 'opposites' girl, a Dr. Jekyl/Mr Hyde. She is such a dirty kid, always dirty face and shirt, yet she's constantly asking to wash her hands. She'll walk by Emily and reach out and knock her on the head, yet there's no one in the world she adores more. She has to do everything on her own, I mean everything, but she won't go to nursery by herself. She is stubborn but also so quick to say 'sorry' and give hugs. She is so friendly, says 'hi' to anyone that will listen but don't get too close to her things, she's protective. She is sweet yet defiant at times. She runs everywhere, with her tongue out. She wants so bad to be bigger, but she still wants her cuddles and kisses (I love that!!). Oh, I could go on forever. She keeps us entertained that's for sure.....We love you Lauren!!!
