So once again it has been quite awhile since I have been on here. But I suppose thats because I have been SO busy!!! Since August a lot has happened. This is going to be a VERY long post... We'll start with September ;) Hmm, well all I can remember about that is WEDDING! My lilttle sister got married Sept. 20th 2009. Ryan was a ring bearer, Raegan was a flower girl and I was the Matron of Honor. What a blast! What a BEAUTIFUL bride! Here's some pictures...


We kicked October off by celebrating "Mima's" birthday. Ryan got to turn his crib into a "big boy" bed. Then towards the end of the month we celebrated Daddy's Birthday.The kids really enjoyed the cake ;)



We started November off with an awesome camping trip out to Ocotillo Wells. The kids loved playing in the dirt, watching all the dirt bikes go by, playing with all their camping buddies and late nights by the fire. We always have a GREAT time when we go out to the desert. Here are some picture's from that trip...Here's a picture from the girls only ride...The kids playing on the Ranger...Camp Fire time...
Some more play time in the dirt...Before we head home...and go ni-night...
By mid November it was time for Gigi's 2nd birthday. That's right...our princess turned TWO!!! What a blast that was. We celebrated with our friends and family. It was a really special day, as you can see...We had a great Thanksgiving at Jesse's Aunt & Uncle's house. AMAZING food. The kids got to play with one of their 2nd cousin's. We all got the chance to visit with his cousin's from the east coast, who flew in for the holiday. All around it was a great Thanksgiving.



As we quickly moved into December life did not slow down. We are going going going all the time. But it has been SO much fun! The first week of December we went to Irvine Park with our best friends. We visited the Zoo, enjoyed lunch in the open field, then rode the train. We had a great time, but we always do when we are with them :)

Jesse has had to go back and forth to Las Vegas for work. In between trips we managed to get the house ready for Christmas.. The kids are finally at an age where they are really enjoying Christmas and all that goes into it. Ryan even is sort of understanding that the reason we celebrate Christmas is the birth of Jesus Christ. Here are some fun pictures of the kids from while we were decorating...Oh Christmas is going to be FUN this year :D

I have been having such a great summer with my family & friends. We have done so many awesome things. After Ryan became completely potty trained we got rid of his binki. My best friend decided she'd have an "ice cream party" for him. She was pretty happy to hear he finally got rid of it.



Then that night poor Raegan came down with a fever. Over the next 2 1/2 days it got much much worse and I ended up taking her in when it reached 105.2. After having to get a catheter, have blood drawn & x-rays taken we discovered she had pneumonia. She ended up having to get to injection of antibiotics. We rechecked the following day and was given an oral antibiotic. Then about 10 days later we eneded up back at the office cause she was not showing great signs of improvement. Now we have her on an inhaler as needed and she is having a very hard time with lack of energy. She gets real tired quite easily. Not to mention she is also teething. Poor thing. Here are a couple pic's of her the day we got home from her first trip the the Dr.



A few days later Ryan got his first bee sting. He handled it pretty well too. I was proud of him. However now he is not too fond of bee's.



Then came Ryan's 3rd birthday! It was such a fun party!!! I had my niece here with me for 3 days helping me so much. She helped me make an amazing cake for him!



We just got home from our annual Yucaipa trip. We always have SO much fun when we go. We went down to the lagoon and played in the water. We played volleyball, horse shoes, had a water balloon fight, pot lucks, cards, camp fire, and much much more. It is never quite long enough though. Here are some pictures from our trip!
