Getting her face painted
Snow cones for all
Every year at the end of the year my school's PTA puts on end of the year carnival and this year they did a sockhop. We had these adorable poodle skirts that Leslie has made for Brooke's 2nd brithday, so the girls and I put them on and headed to school for some fun. It was really fun for Brooke and Bri, they had face painting, music, dancing, snow cones, popcorn, icees and more! The girls had a great time!

Take me out to the ballgame....at Preschool!


It's Baseball Day!!!! Daddy took today off and volunteered in Brookie's class. She was in heaven. They did baseball art, read baseball stories, had hotdogs for snack, and got to play a baseball game! It was a fun day for Brooke and Daddy to enjoy!

Yeehaw It's a Girl to be!

One of my closest friends Danielle is expecting her Baby girl # 3 this June, so we threw her a little cowgirl shower at Lucille's. It was a great afternoon (minus the hailstorm) and she enjoyed the time with her friends and family. It was a nice way to welcome baby 3!

Little Lady is 15 months old!


This kid is hilarious! She seriously makes us laugh all day! She has a great personality and so much life! Can't believe how fast she is growing. She is learning lots of new words, here is some he knows: Mama, Dada, Dog-Dog, Moo, Ruff, Harlow, Shoes, Nose, Dora, Uh-oh, owie, ding-dong, Milk, love you, Mia, muah (her kisses noise), hi , yee haw, and bye-bye. She is working on sissy now.
She can identify where her feet, toes, eyes, nose, and belly button are. It amazing how the understanding of language grows. For example commands like, "get your shoes, please" She will go get them and bring them to me!
We love this little lady soooo much!

Sleeping Beauty




Aunt Jackie and Mar Mar invited us to see Brooke's very first play. It was a version of Sleeping Beauty. I wasn't sure how Brooke would do, but I was pleasantly surprised at well the girls did. They didn't say a peep and were engaged in the whole thing! Thanks girlies, we had a fun afternoon with you!

Folsom Zoo Field Trip


All ready to go!

She found all the animals!

Daddy and Brookie


Eating snack!

Brooke and Teacher Maria

The animals get really close to you and are super friendly (all the animals at this zoo are rescued animals)

ALL ABOARD!

I wish someone would push me in a swing like that!


Last Thursday I was lucky enough to go with Brooke's preschool class to Folsom Zoo on their field trip. It was so much fun and of course Brooke loved the fact that I could go! We all met at the park outside the zoo where the kids played and the class had snack and then they sent us on into the zoo for an animal bingo game/search. The best part was Daddy surprised Brooke and met us there during his prep period-she was super excited! We toured the zoo, rode the train, and played a little more on the playground. It was a beautiful day and I had so much fun with Brooke and her class!

Spring Fever

First ice cream store trip!
Practicing her letters on her new white board in the garage
PEEK A BOO

We drew and colored in a Brooke look a like!
Having some fun with the sidewalk chalk!
We were so glad to see the rain go away and enjoy some time outside!!! The girls love to play in the front yard right when we get home from school They love doing the sidewalk chalk and bubbles. They like to ride their bikes or scooters around (well Bri likes to pretend to ride)

Happy Mommy's Day!!!


The best job in the world is being a mom. It is not the easiest, not the job that pays the highest, it is not one in which you get a lot of sleep or get to relax a lot, but it by far the most rewarding experience a person can have! I am so thankful for my two little angels and all the laughter and joy they bring to my life. I can only hope that as they grow up and become mothers we will be lucky enough to have the type of relationship I have with my mom. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful mother, she is the one that taught me how to be a good mom and for that I am so thankful for all the sweat and tears that went into raising me............Love you mom!
