Big boy

Chase thinks he's big now...he wants to be with the big kids wherever they are. His happy little smile lights up our home. We love you Chase!

Jokes

The kids are fascinated by jokes lately and try to make up their own...

Luke: why did the chicken get in the car?  Mom, say "why"

Mom: why, Luke?

Luke: to drive to cafe Rio!!!

Awesome. And yes, we eat at cafe Rio almost weekly. Love my Luke!

Muffin Top

The muffin top...best part of the muffin, right?!  Well, my daughter told me today that she is going to call them muffin tiaras because they are the yummiest, best part!  I think she really is a princess.

Overdue

Janey on the first day of Kindergarten. I was worried that she would have a hard time because she kept saying that she missed Clover Elementary (where she went to Pre-K) and all her friends from UCLA...but, little kids adapt easily, and she has made some cute little friends and loves going to school.

Luke started preschool this year too.  Here he is with one of his little friends from class.  He LOVES preschool and is usually sad on Fridays when he doesn't get to go.  

Chase is getting so much bigger.  He's a healthy happy little dude.  Great addition to the fam.  I think we'll keep him.

Lukey walking home after picking up Tay from school one day.

Tay wanted her pic by the pretty flower.

All three on the walk home from Tay's school.  I've been walking to and from her school almost every day.  So nice that we live close enough to do that - parking is a nightmare pretty much all the time around the school.

Life is flying by.  Adam is finished with his first year of Investment Banking.  I have 3 hours a day with only one kid (nice!).  Doing well and just living life.  The three monkeys make it all worthwhile!

Impromptu

One of the many reasons we love living in cali...we can stop at the beach anytime. So fun!

A couple things

The garden is flourishing!!! I'm still waiting on tomatoes (should be any day now) but we picked our first zucchini - hooray!!!

We fried it up and ate it - so good! I have about 6 more growing right now. So awesome to be able to enjoy something that I grew myself - and that I put so much time and effort into.

And, Chase boy decided to try some rice cereal. He did well the first week, but then regressed and refused when I tried to give him some veggies with it. We took some time off, now he's back on the cereal and eating it like a champ!

Happy little guy :)

He thinks he's so big...he's growing much too fast for my liking! Love you Chase!
