Has it really been 10 months?

This lovely $34 (on sale) shirt from M. Fredric is worth every penny because it says it all!

The Social Butterfly

Karissa had quite the social calendar last Saturday, Matt and I could hardly keep up. Addi was just as patient as can be, watching and laughing at us and... not napping.

Kayley and Karissa posing before the Spring Fashion Show at Nordstroms. That would be my child insisting upon wearing the bikini. She walked about 1/4 of the way down the runway and started crying and ran to Daddy. Why? Because she says that everyone was staring at her. This marks the end of her modeling career. I fear that I may have scarred her for life!

Our fashion models!

After the runway meltdown, Karissa was off to her next event.

Her friend Kyle's Star Wars birthday!

Last but certainly not least. Our friend Janet's, (far right) 30th birthday.

Addi is just chillaxn' with her Uncle Mark...and still not napping!

Our queen..note the crown on her forehead!

Ballerina, Bruises, Bronchitis and ....Barf

Warning...the picture below is graphic.

Matt was so proud that he caught this on camera, I had to share.

The girls got sick on March 6 and are just getting better as of today. The both had bad colds that with pink eye. Then poor Addi had a double ear infection and finally both girls developed Bronchitis. And they passed it along to me! AHHHH. I am on medication though as of yesterday.

Poor Addi, she was very sick yet still wanted to play as much as she could.

Here is the awesome shiner on Addi's forehead.

That darn table got in her way 2 times in one day!

And how could I forget our ballerina. Her she is ready for dance class. She loves it! Karissa and Kayley will be in a recital on July 12 at 6:00pm for anyone that is interested in attending, please let me know.

Great News

Matt is now employed! Matt accepted a position as a travel agent at the AAA office in Santa Barbara. The drive is about 45 minutes from Camarillo to Santa Barbara. Let me tell you nearly the entire way is along the ocean. Who wouldn't want to watch dolphins frolicking in the surf?



We are very excited and want to make sure that you are making all your travel arrangements with Matt. I will post his contact information as soon as it is available.

Thank you to all those that were praying for us and especially to those that helped with childcare while Matt had interviews and was testing for positions. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

9 months old!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where has the time gone?
Addison had her 9 month check-up today and she is in perfect health. She weighs 17 lbs 12oz and is 27 inches long. Because Addi and Karissa are exactly 3 years apart, I always compare their stats. Karissa weighed about 4 oz less than Addi but everything else is the exact same. I wonder if I hadn't begged to be induced if they would have had the exact same birthday?
Actually, Addison is a million times more melow than Karissa was or ever will be!

Valentines Kisses

We had a very sweet Valentines.

After a night of partying, the cousins are all tuckered out!

Daddy gave Karissa a roses too!

From my amazing husband. He is a Saint for putting up with me!

Sweet love!


These girls have way too much fun!

Edward or Jacob?

Survey - Are you an Edward or a Jacob fan?

I have spent every spare moment in the past month reading the Twilight series and I'm now about 1/3 of the way through Breaking Dawn. (Matt can't wait for me to be finished because then he can have his wife back.) Linnae, Beth and I have had several discussion on who we like better. So please comment and let me know.
