Our last Trip...
I cannot believe it has already been a month!!!!!!!!!!!! We traveled to Wisconsin, saw Auntie Lori and there was snow then!!!!!!!!! Crazy how time has flown and how spring has sprung!
Auntie Lori hugged, played, tickled, and got her fix with us that weekend...
it was so good to see her. We are SO lucky that she is so dedicated to family! She even built a snowman with Owen! :-)
So many things just came together that weekend...it was Gramma momma's birthday so Owen drew her a picture on her card...and sang Happy Birthday! :-)
And...the circus was in town! Owen, Roger and Grampa drove to Milwaukee to see the elephants, trapeze artists, motorcycles, tigers, and more!
What a great time!
Just a few recent events...a few first/new/good times...
"Daddy" found us a great swing-set for a great price...he even got someone else to set it all up. So, when I got back from yoga, it was done and no one had broken a sweat...or an arm! :-)

We went to a birthday part and Owen got to hang with his best girl...eating cupcakes and getting super duped up on sugar (yes, we are paying for it dearly these past few days!) ugh!
Gabby let loose too...ok, so she is dancing in the bathroom, but none the less...breakin' it down! :-) she is my goofy girl! She makes me giggle!

Speaking of sugar...this was evidence of Gabby's first beater! :-)

Finally...our trip to CA...it was a month ago, but the pictures are great to look at. It seems so long ago, but it was so nice...to fly with my little girl, to spend time with Auntie Emmy, to get to know Uncle Mario...to play with sand and see nice sunsets...
I have a feeling that my little girl and I will be taking lots of trips like these! :-)
on one of our legs we got a whole row to ourselves...Gabby loved that! :-)
She climbed about, spread out, thought about her brother...
Auntie Emmy met us and saved us from the monkey on our backs...Uncle Mario and Gabby got to spend a bit of time together...one day that we left Mario to help Gabby when she woke up, we found them sitting in a chair staring at one another. We gave him instructions about a bottle and finding a snack or taking a walk, but Gabby was only interested in staring. I guess this was going on for 45 minutes and then we got home. Gabby finally got interested in her bottle and let go of Mario...too funny to think what goes through a 1 year old's mind.
Park time...
sand time...

piggy toe time...
sunset time...
watching surfers...
more park time (these pictures are in no particular order...)

I think there are a bunch more, but you get the picture...good times just hangin' out! Beautiful!

I have had no time to update...or I have made no time! :-) Very busy these days but not too busy to take Gabby for a spontaneous Walmart trip to get some lotion and some other necessities while in Wisconsin! :-)
She sat so still and never made a peep or cried when getting pierced! She is so adorable! :-)
I am trying to upload some pictures of our CA trip but I don't have my cord for my phone or camera here at school (yes! conferences are going until 8:50 pm tonight and I finally have a little break! it is 8:45...)
so...maybe this weekend? you just might get to see my little angel walking on the beach, digging in the sand, playing on the playground and monkeying around on the airplane! :-) cross your fingers!
