Our Anniversary with the girls

We made a long weekend out of our Anniversary! It landed on a Thursday so Brett took Thursday & Friday off and we got a hotel from Thursday - Sunday. We had the girls until Friday night so they got to enjoy the hotel with us.

First thing we did was reserve a table at the Blue Bayou in Disneyland. I have never eaten there before and thought it would be something fun and different to do for our actual Anniversary since we would have the girls. It was sooooo hot that day at Disneyland so that is why both Brett and look so red.

I am so glad I remembered to bring Penelope's hat since her poor bald head would have fried. The dumbo line was one that was really hot since most of the line is in the sun.



Luckily the next line was Peter Pan and some of it is covered and you get some air conditioning.





Our hotel was close to Disneyland and cheap but it had a huge jacuzzi pool which Gwen (and of course Brett & I) loved!!! Penelope just loved to sit on the big bed and play games on Brett's iphone.



She is already addicted!



Sorry for the overload of pictures but sometime the girls are just to cute not to take tons.



We took the girls to this really cool park by Disneyland, but it ended up being mainly for older kids. Gwen still had a good time.



I did get this hilarious outtake of Penelope. It is way better then the real picture.

Valentines Party.

Our playgroup had a little Valentines party today. It was so fun to pass out Valentines to all the kids, I spent the night before writing everyones name on their little valentine, I loved it.

The kids all loved being outside since it has been POURING rain for a long time now. It wasn't raining but it was really cold outside.



Gwenie just wanted to say cheese along with the boys. I was so glad that she was in a good mood. She had not been feeling well and did not sleep really great last night, which is sooooo not like her. She is getting in alot of teeth and I was thinking that she might have a bladder infection because she had been acting weird yesterday, but so far today she has been fine.



Gavin and Brody. Buds forever. These guys are so cute together.



This girl loves the slides. Boy was I happy that she was happy and having a great time. (Aside from the couple of times that she screamed for no reason, sorry girls, I bet it hurt your ears.) I was hoping that she would get tired and take a great nap and she did, 3 1/2 hours!!! She totally needed it.



Thanks Abby for organizing the party. I didn't get to eat anything but a little cupcake since I was talking to everyone and chasing after Gwenie, to bad since there was a ton of food.

Park

Another hot day here in Cali. What is with it being almost Thanksgiving and in the 90's?!?!?! CRAZY! Luckily the park has a big cover over the toys so the kids don't burn.

Here is all of us mom's camped out ready for the park.



Cute kids.


Gwenie always can tell when someone is unhappy or sad. She comes and gives you hugs and kisses, she is so sensitive to others. She could tell that Hayden was sad, but she got her smiling fast.



Here I am in a shadow. I have to get a picture of me somehow.



Friends. Only some of them. Really we need to take more pictures of us together. I love this one, the colors are so pretty and you guys all look great!



This is one of Gwenie's favorite parks, she loves everything about it. Especially that it has a big field and she can run far where I can still see her. Freedom is her middle name.

Dinosaur weekend

There is a park near by that is nicknamed " The Dinosaur Park" for this reason only:

Gweniveve had no interest in the Dinosaurs this is all she wanted to do:



After this we then spent Sunday at the Clinic finding out that this last week and half Brett had a sinus infection. Luckily we got all the medicine that he needed : antibiotics, nasal spray, benadryl, sudafed, dimetapp. I think the doctor wanted him to OD. Isn't that a little to much?

gwenipant's adventures

As Backyardigans is Gweniveve's favorite show and they are always going on adventures, Gwenie decided to have some of her own.


Our Sunday walk. I was in the Easter spirit, hence the ears.

Grabbing Dad's nose at Disneyland

First taste of Thai food, she loved it and was begging her dad for more.
