And the accessory obsession continues...

Daila's modeling her favorite new accessory find. Apparently this headband makes her feel like a princess!

Reading her book with her headband.

Cruising the house with Kai, while wearing the headband of course.

Mama, mama, mama... This really means "will you please put this on my head for me?"

Party!!

Busy weekend.

Gigi and Grandpa hanging out with Daila and her favorite new bunny earmuffs.

Daddy Kai and Daila at Pam and Stevens house.

Our friend Scott came for a visit!

Well it seems our lives are getting a bit more active these days and we're starting to get out and be social again! Our friend Scott came and stayed with us on Friday night and he and Billy played the Wii Bowling until the wee hours of the morning! We went to Ihop the next morning. This was our first time going to a really crowded restaurant, waiting to be seated, and having a friend with us. Let's just say it was hectic, but we survived...:) Then Saturday we loaded up the babies and took them to our friends house in Tustin for his Birthday party. They have a 4 yr. old daughter and she and her friend put on puppet shows for Kai and Daila while we got to skate their bowl in the back yard! Sunday we took the babies up to Pamela and Stevens and Billy and I went to San Pedro. We then made it back for Max's basketball game and then had a wonderful family Chili dinner. End to a perfect weekend!

Just some great photos.

This one just melts my heart...:) Daila Sue, not camera shy.

Kai cruising the parking lot of our favorite skate spot in San Pedro. He really loves rolling around on a skateboard. Maybe we will have family skate days in our future?

When my girlfriends were here last weekend my friend Lisa took these and I think they're just beautiful photos. There are some more that I will post later too. Thanks again Lisa!

Girls weekend!

Kai, Nikki, Daila, Hudson, Lisa and Melissa hanging out on the patio getting ready for a skate day while Billy cooked us the best breakfast ever!

Lunch time at San Pedro, our favorite skate spot!

With a little help from daddy Kai pops his first ollie at San Pedro. He seems quite fascinated with skateboards...:)


This was probably one of my favorite weekend in years. Seven of my really great girlfriends that I knew back when I lived in Colorado came in for 4 days and we hadn't all been together in the same place in 8 years. I met them down in San Diego on Friday night and we stayed at this amazing house on the beach in La Jolla, sadly I forgot my camera...:( But we had a wonderful time catching up, going out and basically pretending like we were 25 again! Since the days when we all ran around together in Colorado most of us have had children and all of our lives have changed significantly, but we all still love to skateboard. I'm so lucky to have such wonderful women in my life. Each one of them is a blessing. Sadly Nikki (who is one of my best friends and was even in our wedding) is moving to Australia in 6 weeks, so it was so great to get everyone together again as it's hard to know if it will ever happen again. I'm sad about this but happy for her, and I know somehow we'll still be in touch and see each other on occasion. It was everyones first times meeting the babies. Kai quickly learned that if he would walk up to one of them with his belly showing he would get all the belly raspberries his little heart desired, so whenever anyone would look at him from across the room he would lift his shirt just enough to get peak of his little pot belly, and sure enough he would be getting raspberries and giggling with glee in no time...:) And Daila just could get enough of hanging out with the girls. She loved just sitting in the middle of everything and babbling like she was part of the conversation. She's so social!

Billy catered to our every need the whole while taking care of the babies and it was definitely a great weekend that I'll remember forever.

Silly Sue Bear!

We looked down the other day and she was running around the house like this. Silly girl. She looks like a little teletubby!

Daila is really starting to not be a fan of wearing t-shirts. Every so often she wanders around looking like this...:)

Such good babies!

This is the first time the babies used a plate of any kind and they didn't even end up on the floor! We are inching our way towards civilization everday...:)

Recent cuteness.

Having a very "rare" quiet moment together...:)

Daila loves to read books, especially this one.

Hangin' out!

Kai loves playing peak-a-boo with the blanket with Billy.

Daila being a silly girl. She loves to pull salad bowls out of the cabinet and just sit in them!

Sunday Funday!

We brought Kai and Daila over to Gigi and Bobbies house today while we were able to get up to San Pedro to our favorite spot for some skateboarding. They love sitting in their new chairs that they got for them for Christmas and we haven't been able to bring them home yet because we can't fit them in our car! When we got back we all had a nice family dinner together and Pamela, Steven and cousin Max were over. It was a perfect last day before everyone has to get back to work this week and life gets back to normal after the holidays.
