First time in a toddler bed

Daddy and his little angel.

We are preparing her for a big girl bed (okay, who are we kidding, we are preparing US for her big girl bed) and so we removed the crib side off today. By the look of her and her drool spot she will be totally fine with sleeping in her bed. We may have a different update in the morning though. ;)

Monterey Bay Aquarium

I don't think I realized that buying a membership to the Aquarium would mean that I would have to go twice in 11 days. While I enjoyed watching the kids enjoy all the animals, I really enjoyed the long drive home with 4 sleeping kids! I tried to take a picture of them while driving and I hit the things on the side of the road that makes a loud noise and it woke a kid up so I scratched that and went back to driving. My 12 year old niece is visiting for the month. I thoroughly enjoy having twin 12 year olds who will be turning 13 at the end of October.

Jungle Time!

It is very rare when he lets me take a picture especially as embarassing as this one!

Having fun with Grams and Gramps at the Monterey Aquarium! Alyssa was very excited to see the fish but not the sharks and big fish. She ended up waking up in the middle of the night and we seem to think she was scared of them. :( We still enjoyed our wonderful weekend with them!

4th of July at our Church

We took the Cox girls to Great America. While Alyssa still thoroughly enjoys the speeding roller coasters, she is apprehensive of the pool.

The Easter bunny visited the Hunt household

Lyssa gets her first taste of a jelly bean...and loves it!

The Easter bunny brings cash?????

Who says she only wears pink?

Posing in her Easter outfit.

Egg Hunt with our Church

On your mark.....

Run!

Tyler was working in the prize booth and I was working in the tatoo booth. Daddy and Lyssa hunted eggs.

We couldn't resist taking a picture with the bunny too.

Almost Easter!

Coloring eggs at home...

Where's the snow?

The jacket and snowsuit that we got for Alyssa.... for the weekend that it hit mid 60's and melted all the snow. :(

Lyssa and Lyle

Alyssa and her new friend Lyle. I met her mom, Melissa, in church and the girls found each other in the nursery classroom. I am sure the girls are going to do a lot this summer together because they will be entering preschool together and will be in the same class! If you notice the picture on the left, Lyle has her arm around Lyssa!!

They also see each other in nursery class during Church and MOPS. Lots of fun.

I am so sorry friends and family!

Tyler enjoying the sled....with Kiki right behind him.

I went to post and discovered that I hadn't in almost a month, SORRY!

We spent a wonderful weekend with the Marinos in Tahoe. We went to ski and sled with the kids and ended up enjoying an ice cream cone in the glorious sunshine.

We did get to sled a little bit (very little) since most of the snow was gone. Lyssa didn't really care for the sledding the first few times that Daddy took her down. We then discovered why. He was putting his feet in the snow to slow them down a bit and all the snow was hitting her face. :( After we fixed that, Lyssa and Daddy went fast and had a blast!

My camera died and the Marinos haven't sent me the one off their camera (hint hint).

Weekend with the Cox family

Even Kiki was able to play!

Lyssa is upset in the picture to the left because she thinks Jackie is pushing her off. Jackie is only wanted to hug her. :(

We had the pleasure of having the Cox kids both last weekend and this weekend. Here are some pictures of the kids...

Posing for the camera

She looks so different to me when she is fully smiling, like cheesy smiling. However she does enjoy smiling for the camera! It has been awhile since she has busted out the side posing.

Jackie gave her some pink boots that she loves and I wished I had taken one of her in the boots. She literally wants and does wear them everywhere, well unless I hide them.

Congratulations Tyler!

Tyler was accepted into Valley Christian Middle School today. We are so very proud of him and

what he has accomplished. WOO HOO! He will begin his career at Valley in August and will continue till he graduates from high school.
