My poor blog has been given a serious dose of it. In fact it's been so long since I've blogged that I just noticed that the updated version of Blogger now allows you to add video! That will come in handy for one of my gazillion posts I have planned for this week! In the mean time, I will give a brief update on the last nearly 3 months of our lives through pictures, starting with April. I know you're excited!
While Tommy & Mine were here for Boston's blessing we went to an indoor bounce house. The kids were laughing the entire time and the adults had a pretty good time too.
Andrei is one of the funniest kids around. He will definitely be a heartbreaker one day soon!
And my little Niko is just about as squishy and sweet as a little boy could be.
And then there's my little man. My love for this baby triples every time I look at him! He is such an angel!
Also during Tommy & Mine's visit we headed out to the coast again. We stopped at this adorable little cheese factory along the way and the kids were so excited to be able to run freely and collect sticks! Their needs are so simple!
When we got to the beach we were the only ones there. It was so peaceful and beautiful!
Cute little Andrei was fascinated by the water and we caught him just sitting there taking it all in.
We stayed long enough to see the sun set on the water and it was breathtaking! Seriously so cool.
The next day we went to Six Flags and had a great time.
I love the way Kiara is looking at Ben in this shot. The girl loves her daddy!
My little daredevil:
The sea lion guide loved Kiara and asked her if she wanted a turn talking in to the microphone. Being the performer that she is she jumped all over that opportunity! I think she said something along the lines of "fishies" and then walked away.
While at Six Flags we even saw my dear friend, Janie.
Except it wasn't her, it was her clone. Here is the real Janie.
Spooky really how much they look alike.
After Tommy & Mine left it was time for us to go meet Ben's parents and 2 youngest siblings at Disneyland. Ben's dad was speaking at a conference in Anaheim and he asked us to tag along with the rest of the fam. It was the most fun we've had in a long time! It is so funny to see Ben's little sister, Eve, and Kiara together. They are only 15 months apart! Eve was adopted from Ukraine in 2007 and has fit right in the family. She and Kiara are almost more like sisters than aunt/niece but this time they got along like BFFs. It was great!

We got the girls matching Tiana shirts and Tiana best friend necklaces. They looked so dang cute in them.

Grandma also went a little nuts in the Bippity Boppity Boutique and let each girl choose their favorite complete princess outfit. True to their personalities, Kiara chose Tiana and Eve chose Jasmine. This is one of my all time favorite pictures because it perfectly captures the girls' mood the entire time we were at Disneyland. It really is the Happiest Place on Earth!

Unfortunately these are all of the pictures I got of our trip because I forgot my camera (seriously, who forgets their camera when they go to Disneyland!) and was left with only my phone to capture these shots.
This last one has nothing to do with Disneyland but I love it. Is my boy the cutest or what?
