Burpin Beauty

Somehow, my 20 month old daughter can burp on command. And yes, I can myself, but I did not teach her! lol The other day, she was talking so cute that I had to pull out the video camera & the following is what ensued...... (Turn up your volume.)

Btw, don't anyone faint that I've posted 3 blogs in 3 days. ;-) And please excuse the horrible video quality- I don't know what's wrong lately! :-(

Happy 6th Anniversary Baby!

This weekend we celebrated our 6th anniversary. We were fortunate enough to be able to drop off the girls at Grandma & Grandpa's for a sleepover. We also slept in til 9:00, which hasn't been done in a LONG time! lol So, last night we went back to where we got married, the historic Balboa Pavilion, to have a drink. It was so fun to reminisce there. Here's a pic from that beautiful night 6 years ago.

And the craziest thing that happened on our way there??? As we were walking past the hotel that we stayed at on our wedding night (which is right across the street from the Pavilion), we noticed a restaurant called "SIENA"!!! How ironic is that?! It just solidified how we were all destined to be together. Of course I had to take a picture.

Here's us 6 years later... we may be a little grayer, but definitely still very much in love!! :-)

2010 and 20 months

I remember being amazed that it was turning the year 2000 & now it's 2010?? Wow. Plus, my girls are already 20 months?? Although you watch them grow before your eyes, you just don't notice how much until you look at old pictures...or see how big their clothes are getting...or hear them say "Mamma"...or be amazed that they can finally eat a bowl of cereal on their own...or give hugs & kisses... I always knew I'd love being a Mom but being a Mom to Sara & Siena is a HUGE blessing. I love getting them up in the morning & laying in bed together watching Elmo. I love watching them get SO excited to see an airplane in the sky. I love that they love to help me with the laundry. I love seeing them grab eachother's hands & walk around together. And I especially love Saturday mornings when they realize Daddy is home & they run to his side of the bed & say "UP!" The list is endless.

Here's some pics to sum up the past month.

Siena's hair is sooo much longer than Sara's & whenever Sara watches me give Siena a braid or pigtails, she wants them too. :-)
