Update!

I just wanted to give you a little update on our family as so much is happening and changing.

Kylee is growing like a weed. She is getting so big and has so many rolls! It is pretty funny. And, she wears the same size diapers as Amaya does! LOL She ate rice cereal for the first time today and did amazing! And then slept for 2 1/2 hours!! This was great for me! She is cooing, laughing, grasping her toys, pulling our hair(ouch), rolling over and can sit up on her own briefly. She is 100% a mamas girl! It is unbelievable how much she is doing and we are just trying to keep up and take lots of video and pictures.

Amaya is becoming such a big girl. She talks so much and can carry on conversations with you! She knows her A,B,C's, can count to 14 and sings a variety of songs. She loves to read her books, play with all of her toys and she likes to watch Dora and Cailou. She is so smart, loving, energetic and a bit of a ham! We are in the process of potty training her and she is doing so well. She is the one who got the ball rolling on this so we are going with the flow. She is also a really great big sister to Kylee, you can see the bond that they have together. I hope this carries on through their life.

Zack and I are really enjoying parenthood and everything that comes with it. Although there has already been some challenges for us, we want to put our life in slow motion and take everything in because everyone tells us how quick it goes by. We have great children, a great family and a great life. We wouldn't have it any other way!

Aquarium

Extending the fun during Thanksgiving! We made a trip to
the Monterey Bay Aquarium. The kids had a blast!

Party Time!!

Amaya's 2nd Birthday Party.
We had a monkey themed party with 2 jump houses, color your own animal masks, chocolate dipped bananas and a ton of fun!!

Here are the goodie bags that I made for the kids and this
adorable cake was made for Amaya by one of my former students!

She is totally obsessed with Dora as you can see by the
smile on her face!


Poor baby.
She got a black eye for her birthday.
But she isn't missing a beat. She loves her cupcakes!


Computer nerds! LOL
