It's been too long...

I've been spending the last hour looking over the past year and a half, reading all the blog posts. It started off in search of when Amelia took her first bite of cereal and when she started to eat pureed food. Stephanos started cereal 3 weeks ago. He hasn't taken a big liking to it as Amelia did. I made green beans tonight for him to try tomorrow. It was great reading through the past and seeing all the ways God has blessed our lives. We have been so lucky! Our children are our pride and joy! Amelia is such an amazing big sister. Today we were on the floor playing and Amelia laid back so Stephanos could lay on top of her. He dove into her cheeks and started slobbering all over her. They both were laughing like crazy! It's incredible to watch Stephanos watch his big sister. He so wants to get up and join her in play time. He loves it when she feeds him his bottle and brings toys to him, to play with. He just laughs and smiles at her. I hope and pray they grow up being best friends. Today Amelia started the "mine" thing. We were walking the kids in their new Bob stroller and Amelia took a hold of Hazel's leash and said "my Hazel." She continued repeating herself. Oh another funny....I asked Amelia if she was mommies girl and she said NO! I said "you're not mommies girl?" "No mommy, I Nana's girl." WHAT!!! She's talking sentences like crazy. We walked out of the bank and she went and stood in the corner. I told her to come here to get into the car. "No mama, go away, I stay here." I asked what she was going to do. "I stay and hold bunny, Nana get me, go Mama." Finally she decided to get into the car. Thanks mom and dad for BOB! Tonight at the dinner table Amelia asked, "where'd Bob go?" It's a great ride!!!!!

Kite Day in Sunny So Cal!

We had such a great day Sunday at the beach. It was the 3rd annual Kite Party and boy did Amelia have a blast! We had lunch at Johnny Rockets and then went to watch a few kite demos. We had the chance to buy a kite and fly it on the beach. There were a 100 kites flying all at once! Amelia's was the white Angel, Papa's was the Orange one and Uncle Dean's was Blue. What a beautiful sunny day! We are so blessed to live in HB! Amelia has had me draw Papa's orange kite both mornings. She talks about wanting to "fly high kite." Stephanos enjoyed talking his baby talk and eating his fingers. He also enjoyed watching all the people and kites. Both are growing up so fast!!!!!








Mr Rain

Rain Rain come again, Amelia loves to play in the rain! We marched and marched around the pool in the rain (3/6)
