Late on pics (May - July)

Another trip to Tahoe with my family!!

My little camera took terrible pictures so some are blurry! Here's my cousins baby Jake!











Papa and Maggie out in the lake.














We finally got a family picture together in Tahoe. Sean and I have been through a lot since October (me getting a C-section, then hernia surgery, and then he got a vesectomy). All of these were because of that little terd that I'm holding that is the most stubborn baby ever (well compared to Maggie).






Oops. Right before church someone decided to eat some markers. Look at how much hair little Sean is finally getting! He's 9 in a half months now and on Father's day he took his first steps. He'll stand by himself and take steps (especially to my dad) but he still crawls to what he wants (which is dog food and the bathroom). He also scavenges around for little dust balls to eat. Every day he manages to find all the dust balls in the house and eat them. It's not that hard to find

















4th of July we went to Tahoe with Nicole, Abel and the kids. Nicole bought us matching t-shirts to wear for the 4th. We thought we could just wear them that night, but no, we had to wear them all day (on our bike ride and all around Squaw Valley). Ha ha ha! We had so much fun!








This is a dress that my mom wore as a little girl so Maggie wanted to wear it to church. It's still pretty cute for being a dress from the '50's. Maggie is 3 now and her new favorite things this month is beating up her brother, riding her bike w/out her helmet, telling me my breath smells in the morning, and pointing me to the shower after I work out. I love this girl!







Maggie loves all her babies (especially her real one). Look closely! She wants ALL the babies to watch cartoons with her. Poor little brother!










Sean's cousin Tiffany got to come for Maggie's b-day so we had to take a picture of all the kids together. Maggie and Norm need to catch up on their tan!









Maggie and Gabe just love hanging out together. Their getting ready to walk down the aisle at Carrie and Randy's wedding in October. It's going to be adorable.

Pool party!

I have not posted pictures in sooooooo long because finally "beefcake" AKA Sean Jr. is finally sleeping good now that he is in his own room. I thought they could share a room but he's in the office and sleeping from 6:30 - 5:30 a.m. He just recently (in the last week) has been sleeping till 6:30. He might finally be trained. He's also taking 2 naps during the day which leaves my computer getting dusty. But a baby sleeping is much better than me paying bills, and checking my e-mail. :)

Omaha!

We went to Omaha to visit my Uncle, Aunt and cousins (and of course, Baby Ryder). Here's cousin Kevin holding Baby Sean! He looks comfortable! Kev took good care of us. He bought me 6 pack of beer and a baby for Maggie. She LOVES her new baby that goes in the bath with her. It's the cleanest baby we have for sure. Oh and glad you got a haircut for the Baptism Kev! :)





Awwwwww! My dad and Uncle Pat holding Mag's hands at the Omaha zoo!












We took Maggie to a children's museum and she had a blast. It was such a great place! The kids could go pretend grocery shopping, dress up, paint, and play on an old fire truck. Very serious!

















Just the girls at the zoo!













Do I need to say anything?


















And here is baby Ryder ( my cousin Maureen's baby) He is now 4 months old! He is so cute with his blue eyes, dark hair and he has the cutest nose ever!

Cousin Mike played with Maggie a lot (even took her to the park with Daisy). He's such a good Uncle! He was my wine drinking buddy! Why didn't we take a pic of our wine glasses? Did you find my card yet? That little monkey was so close to us and of course my dad tries to pet him and he showed his teeth at him. I told him it wasn't a petting zoo!

Everyone at the zoo! Little Sean looks like a Russian baby! It was pretty cold and rainy when we were there and right when we left it got warm. But we at least go to go to Super Target! We need one in California!

My baby's all sleeping on the plane. Maggie asked, "How do we get down from here?"

Side note: Sean took Maggie to Costco and into the Men's bathroom. He said it was so crowded he went into a stall! Maggie shouted, "Oh, man dad that's a lot of pee!" Everyone started laughing!

trip to SF

We all took a trip to the city to visit Mike (my cousin) and Marianne's baby. His name is Jacob Michael Sorani and he is adorable. It was me, my mom, dad, brother, aunt and the kids.










Maggie got a little crazy so Papa took her in their old elevator.


















Look at this view! The park was right down the street and it was the coolest park. There was a group of parents that were just hanging out, drinking beer and another group that were drinking coffee. I thought, this is the coolest place EVER!!!!







Papa and Maggie walking to the park! We had to hang on to her tight because there were some crazy drivers that don't see stop signs or people walking. My dad knows because he's one of those drivers in the city!!!!








Here's baby Jake!!!! So adorable!!!!

Easter & Teeth

Family Photo

Maggie was "reading" a book to Gavin and he was such a good listener!

Maggie loves being a big sister to Sean Jr. She comes over to me with the saddest look and says "Mooommmm, how come he's not smiling at me?" She loves to make him laugh so if he doesn't, her feelings get hurt!!!!

I was looking through pictures and realized that we haven't taken a family picture since the day he was born. We've had Halloween, Thanksgiving, X-mas, St. Patty's day & Easter and we did not take a picture together. Sooooo George took this one on Sunday before church!

Nice tinted glasses and creepy moustache!!!! NNEEEERRRRRDDDDDD

uh.... duh!

SJ moves around pretty good in his walker. We either find him under the table with Maggie or in front of the TV. His new words are .... "uh... duh... uh... duh... uh... duh" He's almost sitting up by himself too.

We let him cry a lot last week and we think were finally in the clear that he's sleeping through the night. I tried to put them in the same room again but one wakes up the other. It doesn't matter... one of them wakes up in the middle of the night.


This is my favorite new face now... i love it... he opens his mouth and screams... i think all baby's do it but it's still cute!











Handsome boy all naked. Why do babies love being naked? He's a pretty happy baby unless he's tired. He smiles and laughs and even plays by himself in his walker.










How are you fitting in a toddler bed especially eating 80 trillion Cadbury eggs. Sean gets so excited during Easter... he just slurps down those Cadbury eggs.









We tried to take pictures at the Picture People but they didn't work out. Oh well! I think they were a little shocked when we didn't buy any.

Next time!
