Waterpark fun

It seems like all we do these days I spend time as a family having fun in the sun and working on our tan! 

We took the kids to a waterpark yesterday and we had so much fun! 

Here's a few pictures: 

Daddy and babg boy playing in the water. It's amazing how entertaining a bright yellow little ball is to a baby boy! 

The boys were feeling pretty tough after conquering all the water slides! 

Me and baby girl decided we'd watch from the sidelines... Too scary! We even offered to by her a treat if her choice, but no! Too scary!!! 

Trying to get a little warm and snuggling upto his momma! Oh I love these kids!!! 

Nothing better than a cd wet hug at the pool! 

Ball.... Oh yes that bright yellow ball again! 

Boys will be boys forever!!! 

Gotta love this handsome guy! They were all fighting over who gets to play with baby bother and take him down the slides... 

Perfect daddy-son moment! 

Me and my sugar-daddy! 

What a perfect day!!! 

Baby, paper, & oranges

Oh man oh man... Give an almost 7 month old a piece if paper and watch out... No need to buy toys?! Amazing how entertained and entertaining to watch him destroy in a few seconds. 

Baby boy is loving his hands and has just figured out that they do pretty cool things! 

The other kids were cracking up watching him work his little hands and make a mess of this paper... 

And we love oranges too... Yum! 

All we need to keep baby entertained at a restaurant paper and oranges! 

What started out as mommy-alone-time turned into bubble bath fun with my 2 littlest. 

I decide I needed some bubble bath time by myself to read, listen to inspiring Sunday music, and reflect on all that I've been blessed with when little girl found me and said, "Mom, how fun! I want to take a bath with you..." (As she began to take her pajamas off to jump in) And what mom could resist right? 

So, ofcourse I said Yes! 

Then baby boy woke up from all the excitement from baby girl and so she brought him over and sat him down in his bumbo chair to watch. 

And then we decided he had to part of the fun too... 

Oh how I love these two! They make my heart sing! 

We talked and laughed and played with squishy squirty water toys.... 

Best part of my day! And my heart is now wishing these babies never grow up! 

6 months old

Can't believe that it's almost been 1/2 a year since baby joined our family! 

He is at such a fun age right now. He is all giggles and smiles and such a good, happy baby! 

He brings so much joy to our family! And he is my favorite little person to snuggle.

he loves anything he can put in his mouth especially his fingers

He can almost sit by himself, but usually falls over easily! 

Nothing cuter than a smiley baby! 

He loves his elephant mobile in his crib! 

Where has the time gone? Wish he would stay little like this forever! ;) 

Ally can write her name

KWow, can't believe she is signing her own Valentines Day cards! 

Where did the time go? 

Can't believe my baby girl can do this all on her own! 

She is such a cutie! 

Shoelaces and Sean

So our little man Sean has his own unique way of tieing his shoelaces

Notice all the ties... Lol! 

He ties them like this once and then slips the shoe on and off as needed. 

So, this morning before church he told me he learned in School how to tie his shoes using the 'bunny ear' method, and he was dieing to show! 

 We practiced, practiced, and practiced and he was getting frustrated because he wanted to show me so bad that he could do it. 

Poor guy tried several times till he got super frustrated and finally kinda did it. Remember how hard this was to do when you were a little child? 

Keep practicing little dude! Practice will make better!

Sean's first lost tooth

My Seany-boy lost his first tooth today. 

I swear it was just a little loose yesterday and when I got home today he proudly showed me his tooth and the whole in his smile! What?! 

I think he got a little impatient and his big brother Andy talked him into letting him yank it out.... Ouch!!! or not! He seemed so happy and proud of himself! 

I remember when I was a little girl feeling so happy to have my first loose tooth, feeling older almost immediately after it fell off and excited for what the tooth fairy would bring... In my case it was 'el ratoncito Perez' (Mouse Perez)... Hahaha 

I remember laying on my mom on the couch and letting her wiggle my tooth and play with it. I remember being talked into tieing a little string to my tooth and to the doorknob to yank it off and then deciding no because I was so scared it would hurt! 

Sean was so cute he found a clear lollipop wrapper and placed his cute tiny little tooth in there. He loves to show me his missing tooth smile and sticks his tongue through his whole and says his tooth has turned red... Silly silly boy! 

Goofy girls

Ally and I can be pretty goofy... 

My little cutie

Jake is all smiles this days! He brightens everyone's day around here with his gummy toothless smiles and giggles! 

He smiles at everyone! It's the cutest thing ever!

His baby smiles save the day! 

Girls & boys night out!

While the girls enjoyed a strole, shopping, and yummy dinner, the boys went out to a Jazz game!

We all had so much fun!! ;)

Happy 10th B-day!!!

Our Andy is 10!!.... Can you believe it? I can't believe it. So crazy to think I became a mommy for the first time 10 yrs ago. Wow! 

I honestly feel like it was just yesterday taut I was hding him in my arms for the first time in complete and total awe falling in love for the first time! He change my life in more ways than I can express. 

I'm so proud of this little man! 

Happy Birthday my little stud! 

My youngest and my oldest... 

They have such a strong bond!
