Happy Birthday Mommy

We had lots of fun celebrating mommy's birthday. We ate lots of yummy food, got wet at a splash pad and spoiled mommy with lots of hugs and kisses. Mommy said it was her best birthday so far.

That water was tricky, you never know when
it's gonna come out.

Lots of Love

Now that my brother is not really a baby anymore we have lots of fun playing and running around together. Britton loves to give me hugs and kisses. Here we are giving BIG kisses before bedtime.

San Diego

We took a mini vacation and went to the beach in San Diego. We had a lot of fun making sand castles, finding sand crabs and running from the waves. I let me feet get wet but it was too cold to get in the water. Some days we got so much sand on us, we had to take two baths.

Britton loved getting dirty. I think it's a boy thing

Baseball player

Britton loves his baseball and bat. I think he would sleep with them if mommy let him. We showed him how to use the tee to hit the ball. He only watched once and then he did it all by himself! I think Britton will be a major league baseball player one day. (I secretly hope it's for the Cubs or Phillies but I will cheer for him no matter what).

It's the little things...

Sometimes the silliest things make us laugh. Here is one of those times. (You can't help but smile when you hear Britton)

Happy Easter!

We had a wonderful easter and were spoiled (again) by lots of people who love us. We woke up to find a trail of easter eggs leading us to our easter baskets. Then we went outside and had an easter egg hunt. Later in the day, mommy and I colored eggs. What a fun day.


Trying to get a picture while we're sitting still (we don't sit still for long).


Big hugs.


Running to look for eggs.


Coloring eggs...blue was my favorite.

Water Day...

It get's really, really hot in Arizona. Sometimes we just want to play in the water. Here are some photos of Britton and I playing in our new sprinkler. Don't worry, we wore LOTS of sunscreen! (Thanks Grammie for our new swim suits)

Our house is a home...

Our house is quickly becoming a home. We have unpacked boxes, moved furniture around and hung pictures. As promised, here are a few pictures. Hope you will come visit me in our new home soon!

Birthday, bouncing, bike and bears...oh my

I'm 3 . . . I'm 3! I am very excited to be 3 years old. I had the best birthday ever! (It's my favorite, so far). I was spoiled beyond belief. Mommy and daddy took me to Bounce U (see post below) and to Red Robin for dinner. I got more presents than I know what to do with. I got new toys, cars, play-doh, baby doll, baby stroller and my very own recliner! I am very loved.

Happy birthday to me!


Me and Beary (my new Build A Bear) I was able to name him, pick out his clothes and help put the stuffing in him. He even has a real heartbeat when you hug him tight.


My new big girl bike!


Cupcake cones! (I helped mommy make them!)


Thank you everyone for making me feel so special!

Bounce U

Mommy and daddy took Britton and I to Bounce U for my birthday. Bounce U is an indoor play place with all kinds of inflatable toys like bounce houses and a giant slide. We had so much fun!

The big slide (I went down it about 100 times)

Ready, set...

GO!
