Maggie likes to put all her babies to bed including her brother. Super cute!!!!!!











Her daddy's smile!











Urban Shield Banquet 2011! Alameda County puts on a SWAT competition every year and it's real life scenarios and people come from all over the world to compete. They stay up for 48 hrs and then there is a banquet (after they sleep). We sat by a team from Jordan and they gave me one of their hats with my name on it :)







New Jersey with the family! What a great restaurant we found where you order your steak with the cook. We liked it so much we went back the next day and got a burger! Fun, short trip but nice to be away from the kids for a bit!









San Francisco Zoo! They've re-done it in the last couple years and it was a blast. Seanie loved the rhinos. He yelled and screamed at every animal but yelled "rhino" the loudest! Seanie's newest sayings are "One more time Mama" which means he wants more of something... and when I tell him no he can't have it... he says in a disappointing voice... "Awwwwwwwww".

Garbage Truck & Birthday!

Just lounging! Since hes turned 2 I feel that he is really talking away now. He loves to sing his favorite song "Party Rock" and Taylor Swifts "Mean". He also loves to run, jump, gallop & hop. Whenever he does something right he looks at me and says, "Good Boy". cause he knows I"m going to say that next. Happy Birthday to my baby boy that has tested my patience since you were concieved and has given me the tightest hugs around the neck every night before bedtime!!


Sean happened to be off for Seanie's real birthday so we went to Chili's and then had ice cream cake. His whole mouth was blue from the frosting but he was just kissing it (not really eating it).










We had a little birthday party on a Thursday morning with some of his boy friends that he sees on a regular basis. Seanie decided to take his cupcake and go to the corner of the yard and sing "Happy Birthday" to it and smell it and kiss it. So wierd sometimes! But we were all laughing!






Kente had his real birthday on the same day as the party so we wanted to sing to him also. He turned 3 and if you zoom in... he has the most enticing smile ever!!! It was also about 95 degrees that day. Who would think to have a pool party at the end of September! And as I'm typing this... it's raining out!

Every Wednesday.... Seanie hears the garbage man when hes still down the street and yells "Whoa... whoa... yay.... yay.... mommy garbage truck" with lots of screams and smiles. We sit on the front porch and wait for him to come to us. He waves and honks as he drives away!!! Then Seanie runs to the sidewalk and keeps waving goodbye as he finishes our street!
