Girls Weekend 09

What a fun weekend. For great commentary look at these posts from my friend Jessica. I would just copy exactly what she wrote, but I will post my own... 

We ate out at CPK, In n Out, Chick Fil A, Sprinkles, IHOP.

We saw "He's Just Not That into You".

We got pedicures.

We shopped. Alot.

And not once did we have to get a stroller out of the back of the car!

Here is a documentation in pictures!

Reunited.

While others did this...

I can't wait until next year. It was a great weekend!

For the Birds

My friend Autie and I had a "kid crafternoon" the other day. We tried (You will come to find out why this didn't work as you read on) to make bird feeders out of the kids names. 

Here we are putting the birdseed into the cookie cutters.

Max was a perfect name for these birdfeeders. B E R K L E I G H and M E R R I C K. What was I thinking?? :)

After the letters fell apart, we wrote names on their cups, and hung the crumbled letters from the cute tree outside.

Here are the twins and Max walking carefully to the cute little tree. (I usually don't dress Berkleigh in a nasty short dress. It had leggings, but she didn't want them back on so she flaunted it. :) )

Hanging our bird feeders in the tree.

Waiting for the birds and shaking the tree.

When Tyson is NOT on call...

stuff like this happens.

The kid has no fear.

Every time a wave came she would throw up her arms and say, "Oh wow."

I can't complain. :)

Another beautiful January day in Southern California.

Random Things About How I Spend My Days.

I found a mouse called Berkleigh eating our cheese.

And then the bread.

She could be French with how much cheese and bread she consumes.

This is Berkleigh's incognito hiding place when I pronounce nap time. I seem to find her everytime though.

Merrick is such a climber, but it gets him in trouble every so often.

But look how proud he is of his accomplishments.

Feel the Love

I used to not like Valentine's Day.... but now I have a special place in my heart for it because it is the twins birthday. I got really excited about some Valentine's decorations I have been thinking about. I am excited that they are completed and now I can feel the love!

My friend Autie got this idea, and we had fun making them with our other friends sitting on the grass outside in the 80 degree weather.

I have wanted to make XOXO for a long time. I made them with my friend Lisa on Friday. Actually, she came at about 9 in the morning. We went to the beach, then put the kids down for naps and made our letters, then we decided to go to Disneyland. That is way much to do in one day! I was so exhausted I threw up when I got home. It was a crazy day, but super fun!

Happy Valentine's Day (a month early!)
