Pitter Patter

Caroline is now officially walking everywhere!!! I don't think it will be long until she is running everywhere. I love watching her walk, she is still a little wobbly! And, Oh so CUTE!! Here she is walking everywhere.

Caroline will be 11 months tomorrow. Where has time gone? My baby is growing too fast!!!!
She is into everything. She loves opening cabinets and drawers and anything she can find. She found the cabinet full of toys in the living room. She had a blast!

Juliann's Birthday Party

Juliann celebrated her 4th birthday with her friends yesterday at the Museum. Everyone one had such a great time. The kids started by getting a tour of the museum. Then they enjoyed making a visor.

Happy Birthday Juliann!!!!
Enjoying the yummy cakeLet's all get in the hula hoop
Emily and Juliann singing. They were entertaining. I got it on video. I am sure they will appreciate that in a few years.
When we got home from the party, Juliann got to open her present from us.
She was super excited when she saw her bounce house. We are going to enjoy it this summer, especially at the bay!
Then the girls put on their bathing suits and played in the sprinkler. Caroline didn't like the sprinkler, but she enjoyed playing with the buckets.
She also loves her sister's gift. She climbed in and out and all around!!
Later that afternoon, the family came over for burgers. Juliann and Aunt Jen enjoying their virgin drinks.
Juliann loved her roller skates she got. Thanks Aunt Nikki and Uncle Doc!
Juliann had a great day!!! Thank you to everyone who came to her party and for all of her gifts!!!! She had a wonderful time. She is looking forward to tomorrow (her actual birthday). We still have a little more celebrating to do.

In Full Bloom

I love the colors of Spring. Juliann and I have been enjoying the flowers that are blooming. We go outside each day to see new flowers blooming and to smell the roses.
I love this yesterday, today, & tomorrow bush. I just wish the flowers would last longer.

Here are the roses we planted a year ago. They have grown so much.
This is the rose outside of Caroline's window.
We found a visitor while we were admiring the roses. He must like them too.

First Trip to the Bay This Year

Last weekend we went to the bay. It was super windy!!! We stayed inside most of the time because of the cool and windy weather. The windy weather was great for flying kites! Caroline enjoyed all the new toys at the bay. Juliann and her Daddy flying her kite.
"I can do it all by myself!"

Easter

We had a wonderful Easter celebration!!! We started the morning by going to mass at 7:00 AM. It was a beautiful service. Then we spent the rest of the day with family! We are very blessed!!!


The girls woke up to all kinds of goodies delivered from the Easter bunny. After church, we arrived home.


YaYa and Papi were there. They had just seen the Easter bunny leaving our house.

The girls enjoyed hunting eggs. Caroline got to ride and hunt.



Caroline... "This is easy and FUN!"

"What's in here?" - Caroline

"Let's see what is in this one." - Juliann

"I think we just saw the Easter bunny's tail hopping away!" - Caroline & Juliann

After a fun morning with YaYa, Papi, and hunting eggs, we headed to Nada. We enjoyed lunch at Aunt Connie's.
