I caught a few cute moments of our adorable kids.  They are growing so fast! Xanthis has really mastered the art of rolling over.  Looks like I cant leave her on the couch any more!

 

The boys have started counting.  At least I hear it. :)  Mostly, they get to 3 and then go backwards.  "One, Two, Three, Two, Three, Two, Three..."  I caught a little bit of JR counting.  Hopefully you can hear it also.

Professional Photo Shoot

While we were in So Cal, I asked my wonderful friend Emily if she would suffer through a day at the beach taking pictures of my kids.  She accepted and I now have some FANTASTIC photos of my little dolls.  (ok, you never have to suffer through a day at the beach.)  

I loved seeing my boys experience the beach.  JR LOVED everything about it.  Getting dirty in the sand, chasing the birds, running into the water.  JP is his Mama's boy.  He did not like getting dirty at all!  I need to teach him that beach sand is not dirty.  Its the best feeling in the world...next to the feeling of showering it all off after spending the day at the beach.  

I am so excited about these shots!!  Thank you Emily for a great gift!!!

Happy Easter!

It is getting more difficult to get a picture with all 3 kids looking happy. Here are a few shots from our Easter photo shoot. I think they each look good in at least one of them! One day I will learn how to photo-shop!!

Home improvement

Here are a few pictures of what I got to come home to:
James ripped out the carpet in the living room and installed this laminate flooring. It looks beautiful!
He also added the glass tiles to the back splash. I think it turned out so great! It really finishes off the space.


This isnt a great shot, but he cleaned off the balcony and installed Astro Turf. Our new "yard". The boys love playing outside! ...and I don't even have to haul them down stairs!!

Trip to SoCal

For my birthday this year, James sent me to California to visit my family. Well, we call it my birthday trip, but really it was me getting the kids out of the house while James did a few home improvement projects. I couldn't handle the mess with all the kids, so we thought it would be best if I took them on a little road trip. Thank goodness for my Dad who flew up to Reno just to drive with us to Upland. I would not have been able to make the trip by myself with the 3 little ones.
We had such a fantastic time!!!

We played with our cousins:

We went to the LA Zoo:

We got to visit both Great-Grandma's:
(Grandma Gibson was so excited to play ball with the boys! She is in better shape than I am!!!)
(climbing trees at Grandma Gibson's)

We got to visit the boys' girlfriends, Zoie and Poppy.
JP learned how to drive:
And the boys got to play with grandpa's pens again:

I love going "Home". Thank you to all of my family for putting up with us, and helping out with my kids! I hope we can get down there again soon!
