Christmas 2008

This christmas was so much fun. It was so cute to see how excited the kids got. Sean wanted to open all the presents for everyone. Brianna wasn't so sure what to think about it all, but she had fun. The kids loved all the toys. Brianna got lots of dolls and she is not sure what to think of them. She much rather play with Sean's toys. So this year we had our own christmas at our house. So Christmas Eve we had dinner with Greg's parents and sister at our house and read the Christmas story and open one present. It was fun to hang out with everyone. On Christmas day we opened gifts as a family and then packed up and headed to Valencia to spend time with Greg's family. We had so much fun the day after Christmas opening gifts with his family and of course celebrating my birthday. So now I am the big 29, time flies by. Greg's dad gave all the boys nerf guns and they had so much shooting each other and running around. It was so fun to watch. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. 

7 months

So I say this every time but time flies by. So I was starting to worry because all Brianna's friends were starting to crawl and move all over and little miss lazy would turn over ever once in awhile. So I shouldn't have had this thought because the next week she figured out how to do the worm and move around quite well. She also gets up on all four and sits in one spot buts tries to rock back and forth. She is so cute. We are having so much fun with little Brianna. Lately Sean has been loving to feed Brianna and she thinks it is so much fun. I am amazed how much Brianna adores Sean. She has a little exer saucer that she can stand in and turn around so now she just keeps turning so she can watch Sean wherever he goes. Kids are so much fun and so cute. Look at this cute picture of Brianna's crazy hair day. 

Decorating for Christmas

Well after Thanksgiving as you all know they start showing all the christmas movies on tv so Sean has been asking alot of questions about christmas and Santa. It is so cute. I can't believe how excited he. To bad he can't understand that it wont be here for a couple more weeks. So once December came we got out all the christmas decorations and decorated outside and inside. Sean watched while Greg climbed on the roof and hung lights and then later that night we ate cookies and decorated the tree. Sean was so good and soft with the ornaments, he managed to put up about half of them of course all at his level and not break one. I was so impressed. Every night we have been reading christmas stories and talking about leaving Santa cookies and how we have to be a good boy to get presents. I decided no more taking Sean to go shopping with me, he almost told Greg what I got him for Christmas. Brianna just loves to watch Sean and how excited he gets about all the christmas stuff. Here's some cute christmas pictures 

Thanksgiving!!

I can't believe Thanksgiving already came and went. I know Im so super slow on blogging but I really wanted to put up these cute pictures of Thanksgiving. We all went up to Greg's parents house and just hung out and ate lots of food. This year Greg did the turkey and he did something called brimming. It turned out really good, I was a big fan. The kids had a blast running around and playing with the grandparents. Me and Greg got a nice little break while we were up there. I was crazy and decided to get up at 6am and going shopping on Friday the day after Thanksgiving. I cant how crazy people are and how many people are out so early in the morning. I found a few good deals but decided it wasn't worth the trouble unless I went right when the store opens. I am so thankful for family, a job, a beautiful home, wonderful kids and husband. I need to sit down everyday and remember all the things I have been given. As you all know Sean got burned a month ago and as you can see the pictures he is almost all the way healed. It's amazing how fast kids heal, they are so tough. Brianna is growing like crazy and finally figured out how to move all around by rolling, or moving in a circle on her belly she's so cute.

Pony, trains, and zoo animals

So lately Sean has been getting stir crazy because he has not been able to go to the park or play with to many kids at once due to his burns. So today we decided to take all the kids to Irvine park where they have trains, ponies that you can ride, and a little zoo. It is one of our favorite parks. So first we went and saw the animals and Sean loved the Bears and goats, he even got to feed the goats. We saw a jaguar and Sean said that's Diego's friend. It was so cute. The best was watching Sean ride the horse, he was having so much fun. I kept trying to get the horse to go faster but all he wanted to do was walk really slow. We had a blast. Brianna was a good girl and hung out in the stroller, it will be fun when she can run around and understand all the things she is seeing. We had fun watching the Sean run around and get so excited about the train, ponies, and zoo. Sean has been doing so well with potty training. I love not changing diapers. All you that are afraid like I was to potty train just go for it, it's so worth the first two weeks of frustration. We have even worked our way up to teaching him how to stand and go pee pee. Which is so funny for me to watch. Sean loves to play shot the cheerios in the potty. 

6 Months Old

It crazy how fast time flies by. I can't believe that Brianna is already 6 months old. I was starting to wonder if she was ever going to really move or even try to sit up. She is sort of lazy. Also her new nickname is Drama Queen. Every time we walk away from her she starts to cry and sometimes when your sitting close by her but not talking to her or playing with her, she will start to cry, but she has the cutest laugh in the world. Well in the last couple of weeks she has figured out how to sit up (sort of by herself), squirm in a circle on her belly, sit up out of her chair, eat little graduate puffs, eat baby fruits and vegetables. She is so funny if she sees her bottle she starts to make this squeaking noise and squirming to try and get her bottle.  We are loving her and her drama. 

Cleaning!!

So this last week Greg had some time off and decided to be nice and clean the house for me. Sean was so interested in what Greg was doing that he insisted on helping. It was so cute to see the two of them cleaning the whole house. I loved watching them. I am so thankful for the great boys in my life. They both are so sweet and try to help out so much. I am also so thankful for my beautiful baby girl and great family. I hope when Sean grows up he'll know how to cook, clean, and fix things that would be so nice when he's old enough to get married.
