Happy Easter!
Day 94 (4.4.10) - We had a pretty quiet Easter Sunday. We're thankful that we have great friends here since we have no family to spend evrey holiday with. Today we went to our good friend Patrick's house where his mom made a fabulous traditional Polish Easter dinner. The food was delicious and the company was great. Ruby looked adorable in this little dress. Not a typical Easter outfit but it has little bunnies on it so I figured it was appropriate. She's been taking a couple steps here and there but not really "walking" just yet.
Under Water
Day 93 (4.3.10) - We took one last trip to the Sea Life Aquarium with the kids and Nick today. I've been trying to get a picture of Joey in this dome for months but could never get him to look. Finally got an ok one!
Still Sleepy
Day 92 (4.2.10) - For the last 2 years and 10 months Joey has woken me up pretty much every single day (unless his sister beats me to it). I never have to set an alarm because the kids are like clockwork..they wake up bring and EARLY even when I want to sleep in on the weekend. Well, this year between the time change and Joey wanting to stay up later and later each night, ever since we changed the clocks he has not wanted to get up in the mornings. It's actually quite funny waking him up in the morning to get him to daycare. I imagine this is what the teenage years are going to be like - him pushing me away, pulling the covers over his head and telling me to "go away." Hmm, it's not so fun being woken up before you are ready, huh buddy.
Getting Ready for the Easter Bunny
Day 91 (4.1.10) - I picked up Joey from daycare today and he was wearing these bunny ears. He was proud to tell me that he made them himself. I was surprised to hear that he wore them all afternoon because he usually hates hates and such. I had to bribe him to take a picture with his St. Patty's Day hat but today he was proud to pose with his bunny ears.
Mt. Washmore
Day 90 (3.31.10) - I know my recent pictures are fairly boring but welcome to my life. Before I got married I could go weeks without doing laundry. Then when I married Nick I realized we had to do laundry every couple days. His clothes are much bigger than mine which equals more loads. Then we had kids and now we have to do laundry daily. If we skip a day we have to do 2 loads the next. The laundry never ends. Ruby's clothes are tiny and she seems to generate just as much as everyone else. Here she is "helping" me with the laundry.
Fort
Day 89 (3.30.10) - One of Joey's favorite things to do with his dad is build forts. Sometimes their forts can be elaborate but sometimes it's just a blanket stacked up on a couple of pillows on the couch like this. Either way Joey loves it. He has a great imagination .... sometimes he brings cars in there for races, sometimes he makes me come in there (you can only imagine me trying to squeeze in there) and other times he his hiding from bears.
Ruby's Pants
Day 88 (3.29.10) - Totally a random picture but I had to post it because it makes me laugh. I picked the kids up from daycare today and Joey was wearing Ruby's pants (as shorts)! We bring the kids to daycare in their jammies and pack their clothes to get dressed there. Well, it wasn't till much later after we got home that I realized they were her pants. Granted, they are boys pants (since they were Joey's when he was her age) but he is so skinny he has the waist of a 6-12 month old! I kept telling him that they were her pants and he kept getting mad at me saying they were his and refusing to take them off.
Sea Life Aquarium
Day 87 (3.28.10) - Out of all the places here in Carlsbad, Legoland and the Sea Life Aqurium is going to be one of the places I miss the most! Since they opened a couple years ago, we've been here at least a couple times each month. Joey loves it and Ruby does too....even more so than the zoo or other places with animals probably because you can see everything up close. We actually had a Legoland double header today. We went to the aquarium in the morning then after nap we met some friends at Legoland. It's great that it is so close!
Saturday Morning
Day 86 (3.27.10) - Here's a sweet moment from just another Saturday morning. Nick has gone to the desert for the weekend for one last riding trip before we move so the kids and I are on their own. Sometimes Joey calls Ruby "mine sissy" meaning that she is his. Not such a great thing when he is taking every toy she plays with away from her but he loves to hug her kiss her and let her sit on his lap. This is a very rare moment cause you know Ruby hardly ever stays still.
