I love fall in AZ....this particular day was hot, but yesterday and today have been freezing in the 50's!!!! Okay, I know that is not freezing, but to me it is so cold after having 100 degree weather recently. I am loving putting on jackets, but I seriously needed my winter coat last night! Anyways, we can't wait for Halloween and it should be warm by then......can't wait....

We are having.......


A BOY!!!
We are so excited and are definitely sure it is a boy from this pic.....pretty funny. And, he already has muscles! Can you believe that he was already flexing for us! It sure makes a dad proud. j/k We are so excited and happy that Brec will have a little buddy to play around with, and my hubby is especially excited because he had all sisters and never had a brother to grow up with. Now it is time for me to be crafty and get ready for a boy: car seat recovering, redo bedding, etc.... Anybody know of any good boy fabric for cheap?

Train park....etc.

This pic was actually today......I thought it was pretty cute. I have had a terrible cold/flu and the kiddos have been sitting in front of the TV a little too much, so this morning I finally went to check on them and found this....he woke up early this morning....cute...



Train Park (as we call it)



Brecon having his tantrum...


We haven't been back to train park for a while and seriously went a billion times when we first moved to AZ. We went with some friends and while we were in Scottsdale checked out where the new H&M will be......so excited!!!!!

Happy Birthday 5 year old!!!!






This year we had a little princess/prince party. I made skirts and capes out of sheets and the kids were able to decorate them. The girls also got a wand and crown and the boys got a sword. They were so adorable! We had pizza and the boys were already separating themselves from the girls and had to sit on a different blanket. Pretty funny. We played musical chairs and the kids just wanted to run around like crazy! It was perfect. Ava had such a fun time! She is so lucky to have such fun friends and she loves every one of them! Ava's actual birthday is today so I told her we could do whatever she wanted. She requested pancakes, bacon and eggs for breakfast. We went to the Disney store and played outside in the perfect weather. We saw the cute pets in the pet store, and then went to McDonalds. For dinner she has requested baked potatoes with chili, and for dessert, cinnamon rolls.......and we even rented a movie that she picked out to watch tonight! What a lucky girl! I guess for one day I can give in to everything!
Happy birthday to my adorable, sweet, very opinionated/wants to always get what she wants 5 year old daughter! We love you!
