Evelyn started Kindergarten today. She was so nervous but excited. I am so proud of her and I know she is going to do so well. She picked out her outfit today and I have to say, she looked cute. She had to wear her "Skinny Jeans" is what she calls them. I did cry when I was driving home without her. Is it 3:25 yet?!?!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I want to wish my bestest friend a happy birthday. Audrey and I have been close our whole lives. We talk every day at least 2 times a day and we are always together no matter what we are doing. I am thankful that Brett is so understanding about how much time we spend together and how much Audrey means to me. Happy Birthday Audie, I love you so much. I hope you have a great day!

Classic Lydia
Lydia is classic for getting sick when it's the time most you want them to be healthy. Christmas she breaks her collar bone, family trip to Disneyland she pukes for 3 days straight, lands us in a California hospital me fighting them on putting an IV in her. Two years ago on her birthday got to close to the candles to blow them out and burned her eyelash off. So it shouldn't have come as a shock to me yesterday, on her birthday she comes down with the flu. She wasn't puking so we went a head and had her party, mostly because I couldn't bare to tell her it was canceled. She tried really hard to act like everything was fine but I could tell she wasn't herself. She didn't eat her birthday cake or dinner which was probably a good idea. Me being pregnant and very emotional, I cried a lot for her yesterday. I felt bad that she was so excited and was counting down the days until her birthday for a week. She is at that age where she has caught on to the excitement of holidays and birthdays. She gets sick on her birthday and I'm sure it wasn't what she had anticipated. Here are a few pictures. On a more positive note, thank you to everyone who came to the party and we missed those who were not able to be there. She is playing this morning with all her presents and seems to be doing lots better. I also slept really well last night and so did Lydia. We got some much needed sleep. I can't believe my little baby is 4, where has the time gone. I love you my pretty little Lydie.

LAGOON DAY
Well, we decided to take the kids to Lagoon since we haven't been in a couple of years and we didn't do Disneyland this year. Of course Audrey and Mikayla went with us because that's how we always do things. We didn't tell the kids where we were going, they all had their guesses but none were close to what we were actually doing. I loved how excited they got as we were driving down Lagoon Drive and the roller coasters came into view, it's priceless. We were nervous at first that it was going to rain all day but it only sprinkled a little early afternoon for a few minutes. It wasn't very busy at all which makes it really nice with little kids. Evie is my dare devil she loves the thrill of rides. Luckily we were able to get her on a few rollercoasters (she wasn't really tall enough for) and she loved every minute of it. Me being pregnant made it nice, Lydia and I went off on our own a couple times to ride some little rides that I could do. The kids were all really well behaved and the weather was great and the lines were short, it was a pretty great day at Lagoon.
