Baby boy is growing up






Jeffrey is turning into such a fun little boy. We are enjoying having a son and seeing how he is different from the girl mold. He loves to play and always tries to get in on whatever the girls are up to. He jumps on the dog pile, steals their ball, plays peek a boo. When he has his big grin or cute little laugh, you can't help but smile or laugh too. It's always short but we love when he lays his head on our shoulders for a love. This boy is a great climber. He is a great eater. He is a decent napper and a good night time sleeper (took his sweet time to sleep through the night). We wouldn't trade him for anything.

Fun times in California

In the freezing cold of January, we headed to Southern California for some sun and fun. We stayed at Newport Coast Marriott Villas. We spend 2 days at the beach, 2 at Disney (1 Disneyland and 1 CA Adventure) and 1 at Safari Park. The bonus for this trip with Grandma and Grandpa Jeff joining us for a few days and the Nelsons hanging out with us (and hooking us up with the room). 
We could not stop quoting Alvin and the Chipmunks "Those aren't pineapples, that's our family!"

Jeffrey got to hang with G&G when we went to Disneyland and it was so nice to be stroller and baby free. The girls were so excited to catch up to Whitney who was there with her friend, and be able to go on a few rides with her.
Mackenzie and Brooklyn got such a kick out of the roller coaster rides. The Tower of Terror proved to be a little too scary though. M was brave enough to go a second time so she could take her mom though!
