I am the Pirate Piggie! & Mother's Day

The Pirate Piggie is from an hour long Dora. (My kids love that one)

"Arg" is backwards because I have to use the mirror to draw.

37 weeks...hopefully only 3 weeks to go.

This was Alaina's necklace she made for me at school. She also made a love note box.
It was so special. She hid the gifts and everyday she would wake up (in the morning) and ask "Mom is today Mother's Day". The teacher sent home the gifts the Wednesday before mother's day....so we had 4 days of asking.

This was Milloy's "Mother's day flower for me." Nothing like a weed...I loved it!

Alaina actually took this picture.

This was the flower we got from church for Mother's Day.

These were my gifts and cards. Tyler & the kids got me a set of perfume. Alaina made gifts at school and got me a pair of earrings, Milloy also made me a card and got me a pair of earrings. And Tyler got me a wonderful necklace with a mom, dad and our three kids holding hands. (it's not pictured because it came Monday...he ordered it).

I had a great mother's day. It was so fun and so special. I sure love my guppies!

Cinco de Crazyness

Tyler and the kids wanted to sleep on the tramp for the night.

(the kids talked Tyler into it!)
Milloy thought he was camping...he's our little camper

This is what I did in the middle of the night. Insomnia set in and I couldn't handle it.

Alaina came in from outside at 1:55am and woke me up. I was never able to go back to sleep.

This was earlier in the day. I had my 36 week Dr's appointment and drew Dr. Kurian a picture. He knows I am Koo Koo so it came as no surprise to him. My Mom would do this for her Dr. and so I stole the idea from her....thanks Mom!

My Dr's will be getting a new face each week. Any votes on the theme of the next 3-4 weeks (I go every week now). I am thinking Pirate for next week...ARG!

Pass the Prego...

Poor Alaina she has to crink her neck because of my huge belly.

As you can see we just got home from church and Milloy already has his pants off.
Do you like the whitie, tighties?

Pass the Prego???

Well, maybe hold the Prego. At least in this picture it's going to last longer.
I'm freaking out- I have SO much to do before the baby is here

and only 5 weeks to do it... OH NO!

It's been a while

Alaina and Milloy set the table for dinner the other night.

(Not too bad.)
Here they are with the final product. They were SO proud of themselves.

Knocked out in the car after a wonderful couple days in Camarillo.

This was before our last event in Westlake...dinner at Auntie Nay Nay's work.

Milloy in Auntie Pepsi's Swim fins and pulls...before hoping in the tub.

Thanks Auntie Peps for my (MANY) B-day gifts.

Out to lunch with Grandpa Bird Dog at Roxbury's Deli.

Another capture of Milloy sleeping funny. He is about to fall of the bed.

The new quilt I made for Milloy...with an M.

Here is Alaina's Quilt with her A...you can hardly see it.

Alaina's Quilt. They are sharing a room. Milloy got bumped because of the new baby.

They are SO happy to have bunk beds. They switch beds every week....due to the desire to be on the top bunk. Is it really that fun? (I never had bunk beds...Linnae & Betsy did.)

Alaina in her new quilt.

We have had a busy month...hence not being able to blog in a long time.

We have been to the Temple...we got to see Marvin Miller, the Bushman's (Bro Bushman -our Sealer), the Stevenson's, and Sister Brinkman. It was so great to get to be in that great place.

We have been to Camarillo for some fun with our Cousins, Aunts, Uncles, and even Grandpa's.

Mommy got a Pedicure (thanks to Aunt Peps)! We are trying to have some fun trips before the baby comes and ties us down for a couple weeks. We are Looking forward to seeing if we get to have a Boy or a Girl. What's even more excited is that Chad & Cathy are preggers too! WOO HOO! Cathy is due only 10 weeks behind me! (August 15) They even know what they are having...A BOY!

Hope you all are great. We love you and will try to keep you all updated.

Alaina turned 5!

Alaina got a Leapster 2 and a game for her B-day gift from Mom & Dad.

Milloy said he gave her the game ; )

Blowing out the candles

Alaina requested Panda Express noodles and cookies for her B-day Dinner.

So Happy with her Cake!

Of course it had to be PINK!

I can't believe that she is 5. Honestly it feels like I just had her. And now she is 5!!! How did that happen??? Is this the way it's always going to be? Look at her- she is growing up SO fast...it's scaring me. Hopefully after number 3 gets here things will seem to be in the right timing....HOPEFULLY...more like NOT HAPPENING!

"Thanks Again Auntie TT and Uncle Matt for my AWESOME T shirt."

Seriously...he LOVES it. He has it on right now.

When it comes out of the wash he has to have it on.

He's CRAZY over it.

A BIG Huge Thank YOU to all the Auntie, Uncles, Cousins for calling and sending gifts to Alaina for her Birthday. She was SO happy that so many people thought of her. She thought just Mom, Dad and her Preschool knew about her Birthday. It REALLY made her day!!!

The LA Zoo

The kids and I at the Giraffe exhibit.
This is how I feel...like a huge Hippo.

The Giraffe the was in Love with a tree.

Can I make out with a tree???

My little Zoo Guppies

Do you like my Poser?

One eyed Willie.

This was a flower I picked for Alaina and took a picture that turned out SO cute.

Tyler and the kids checkin' out the Gorilla's.

Like Gorilla's we travel in packs.

California Seal getting a little sun.

It was such a great day at the Zoo. The weather was perfect and we all had fun.

We are trying to do more educational trips. We are headed to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach in a couple weeks. I'll post the pictures then.

Valentine's Fun

Hair Bows that I made for Alaina's (girl) class mates and for her cousins.

Milloy making Valentine's for Daddy and I...I didn't get him Valentine's because I didn't think he would care. I was SO wrong! He was bummed so he got to have some of Alaina's.

Alaina working hard on making her Valentine's for all her friends at school.

Right after she was done she was busy doing homework for the letter of the week...Rr

The sandwiches I made for the Valentine's Party yesterday at Alaina's Preschool.

And the cupcakes for the party. I didn't taste one, but one was left for Tyler to eat and he said they were AWESOME! (I am SO not into eating sweets...don't you love being Preggers???!!!!???

One of my Cupcakes with her cupcakes for school.

One of Alaina's friends gave Milloy a cup full of treats and stickers for Valentine's Day.

This is what he did with the stickers. He had them all over his cheeks as well. I only have myself to blame....I taught them to do this with stickers. The rule in the house is that stickers only go on paper and our faces or shirts....nothing else!

We hope you all have a great Valentine's Day! We LOVE you all!
