M-I-C-K-E-Y MOUSE

*WARNING....This post will be HUGE!

Last week we were lucky enough to take a family vacation to Southern California (mostly Disneyland).  We had a blast spending time at the beach and visiting our favorite Disney characters.  Also, Nana and Bumpa were kind enough to join us, and that made the trip even better.  We had SOOOO much fun!!!



We went to the Beach:








Nixon did not like the feel of the sand on his feet :)




 



 We had lots of yummy things to Eat:







We spent 3 days at "the Happiest Place on Earth":

Boston had so much fun!  She liked seeing the princesses, but what she loved the most was going on the "big kid rides".  There was nothing she wouldn't try.  Her favorites were "Splash Mountain" and "Pirates of the Carribean"

This poor little guy had such a hard time on our trip :(  He was teething and ended up with a really bad ear infection as well.  After 2 days of screaming we were able to get him some antibiotics and he did much better!















We met lots of Characters:









We waited in line for over an hour to meet Rapunzel!



 Jordan and I even took a walk on Rodeo Drive:


He was really impressed with this car :)

It was such a great trip!

Valentines

What a LOVE-ly day! We have had such a fun day today!


The kiddos woke up to a surprise Valentines gift and they were thrilled!  They also got spoiled by their awesome Grandparents! They are very LOVED!!!



Boston made me this crown for my Valentines gift from her.  She is a sweetheart!


 We also got to host Boston's preschool Valentines party!  We had a blast with those cute little ladies!

The Girls boxes

This was Bostons Valentine this year.  (I know I'm not the first to do this, but I think it turned out super cute!)



We decorated Valentines cookies

I don't think he knew what to do with that many girls in the house :)

I was lucky enough to sneak away and have lunch with this handsome guy, minus the kids.  I love him so much!!! I am so lucky to have such a great Valentine!

Slumber Party

Last Friday night our family had a slumber party.  We moved our coffee table out of the way and set up our air mattress in the middle of the room.  We ate lots of yummy treats and watched the Smurfs.  It was a blast! I love my family!




This is how we tell when Nixon is tired.  He has done this pretty much since birth when he gets sleepy......hopefully he will grow out of it someday :)

Another Random One

We really haven't been up to much lately.....just a bunch of homebodies.  I have managed to take a few pics though and here they are :

This little man climbs on EVERYTHING!

My two little monkeys

Nixon got the larger version of this car for Christmas and when we saw this one at my grandparents he was convinced he would fit in it.  He tried and tried to climb in :)

He loves to color just like his big sister

Can you tell what her favorite color is?

Nixon and Annie

Last week my sweet little guy fell down the stairs while we were at my parents house.  (I know it doesn't seem like it, but I really do watch my kids.)  It was awful!  I still can't get the image of it out of my head.....luckily this was the worst of his wounds.  We are blessed!

Boston making bracelets with her cute friend Hayden

He's still saying CHEESE......I love it!

I love this one too!

Nixons favorite drawer

Nixon always plays in this drawer while I am getting ready.   I just thought I should take some pics so I can embarrass him when he gets older :)

GUM

So, today during primary I took Nixon out in the hall to get him to sleep.  After just a couple of minutes I saw Jordan and Boston walking toward me with this:





I was able to get most of it out, but it left it looking messy so we cut a few bangs.  She looks as cute as ever.....little stinker!
