Hi Daddy!

Disneyland!

While Chris was here we wanted to make sure we had some family fun time. We hadn't been to D-land in a year and a half so we figured it was about time (yeah for me!) We could escape all the to-do's and just have fun.
We left on Wednesday night and took the kids out of school on Thursday. It was rainy and cozy that night so we only went on a couple of rides but had a nice dinner and sat in front of the awesome fireplace in the Grand Californian.They had a balloon man at the restaurant. He asked Sophie if she wanted a princess crown and she said, "no, a lizard" (that's my girl:). Maggie got angel wings (ironic?) and Sam got a dragon.

We stayed the night at Paradise Pier and had the character breakfast the next morning. The kids loved that. Goofy actually wouldn't leave us alone!

It was so fun to be there again, I just love it! It was a bit trickier with the baby, but we used some baby switch passes and I found the Baby Care Center where I could feed her.

Maggie and Charlotte were twins!

This is how Charlotte looked most of the day. All bundled up and just peeking out at us. Cute!

We had a great week with Daddy, we even got to go on a date thanks to my friend Patience. It was SO hard to see him go. It does not get any easier. We have faith and hope that we will be together again soon.

Charlotte's Blessing

Daddy's Home!! We got to have Chris home for a whole week and we made the most of it. We had a bunch to get done while he was here. Some mundane things (taxes, passports,errands) and some fun things-like Disneyland! But the most meaningful was to have Charlotte blessed.

Chris came home on Saturday and we blessed Charlotte the next day. Chris's mom came down from being up with Brooke (who was waiting for baby) and she brought Cambria & Maya with her. And Chris's dad, Ron flew in from Albuquerque. And my mom was still here from helping me out-again. It was so wonderful to have them all there.

We also had Chris's cousin, Zach and his family, Jen, Hannah, Abigail, and . They only live in Mission Viejo, but we hardly ever see them (so sad). It was so nice of them to come out.

Our little family of six.
