Our Weekend with Jade

Micah went on a fun weekend "vacation" down in Carlsbad with his Gigi and Papa. He had a blast and we were kind of excited to spend a little alone time with Jade. She has never been an only child and is not used to all of the attention. So we spent the whole day together just showering her with attention. I think she liked it! She often asked about "her Micah", but had fun with Mommy and Daddy!
We went to breakfast at Pipe's Cafe.


Then ran a few errands and ended up at the mall in a candy shop...for Jade, a little piece of Heaven!




Rode on a couple little rides...and laughed a lot! Lots of hugs and lots of kisses!


Jade is so feisty and fun but she is also really sweet and enthusiastic. We can't get enough of her! She keeps us laughing ALL DAY LONG! Love my beautiful baby girl!

Blackberry Fields Forever

We went down a few weeks ago to see Mitch's Grandparents and while we were there, we went to pick some berries with the kids. We picked berries, peaches, apples, zucchini, the biggest watermelon I've ever seen, and most importantly, passion fruit! I have never been able to find fresh passion fruit anywhere in California! And there were trees just full of them! My favorite fruit in the world, we used them on our Acai bowls here. There is nothing more delicious than fresh fruit right off the trees! We had fun and the kids loved putting the berries in their old halloween baskets. Thanks for the fun Grandma and Grandpa!










That's Grandma Donna hand delivering the beautiful, purple passion fruits.

Summer Time

This is what we have been doing ALL SUMMER LONG! Basically all we do is either the beach or the pool- all day, everyday! We've had lots of fun swimming parties with friends, family or just going to our pool every night when Mitch gets home from work! So, here are a million shots of our summer.
P.S. Love this picture Elise took of Mitch throwing Jade up in the air! And she took all these amazing black & whites! Every photo she takes turns to gold...I don't know how she does it! Love you Elise!

So, Elise is a little obsessed with Jade, so there are always a lot of Jade shots...which is great for two reasons. 1- I am obsessed with her too and 2- I cannot get a decent photo of Jade if my life depended on it!



Elise and her Micah Man!

So hot...just had to say it!

Bree and Micah doing monster faces at Jade! Jade has a thing for monsters!


Not entirely sure why, but Jade hops and ribbits,"bibbits", like a frog all day long!


So here is my pregnant belly about a month ago, at 23 weeks.


Getting buried in the sand

More pool days!







We went to the funnest lagoon in Irvine with a group of some of my favorite friends! It was perfect for the kiddos and they ask if we can go back all the time!

"Surfing"

The water slides in the middle of the shallow lagoon...heaven for those little ones!


Jade and her little twin, Taylor!
Love my sweet, funny Micah!





Jade's new mermaid floaties...she loves them because she can swim by "herself".


It has been a perfect summer...thanks everyone for swimming with us! Let's do it again next summer!
