la with the birthday girl

we went on a quick trip to visit kelly for her birthday! i wish we could have been there longer! basically all we did in cali was eat (thanks to me :) but it was so nice to see my sissy! we miss her so much!



on the plane...
this was the first time colin had a paid ticket! no more lap baby since he turned 2




lunch with the birthday girl. colin didn't really eat his lunch but his auntie bought him a giant cookie anyway :)


birthday dinner with kelly's lovely roomies and tori's cute friends




colin is such a big help blowing out (spitting on) candles!


birthday kisses


father's day lunch




<3


this is colin's new "cute face"


my mom heard about a place called Millions of Milkshakes! of course we had to try it out...yum yum!



it was a fun trip! we even had a few celebrity sitings! we saw ahsley tisdale from high school musical, lisa gastineau from the reality show gastineau girls, and just when we thought our trip was over, we were standing RIGHT behind kiefer sutherland in the long security line st lax! who knew he flew southwest?!

happy father's day!

(summer '84)

happy birthday miss kelly!

we love you and are so excited that we get to celebrate your 26th birthday with you!

:)

i found this picture on kelly's blog and had to share :)

Mexico

here are a few pictures from our family trip to mexico. we had a great weekend but misssed all of you who couldn't make it! can't wait 'till next year!!!

we found out las week that we are having another boy!!! we are very excited for colin to have a little brother :) and are getting ready for our house to get a little more rowdy!!!

a big boy and a baby bump

colin has moved into a big boy bed!!! since we are going to need his crib in a few months, we decided it was time to try colin out in a toddler bed. he LOVES is new bed. he plays in in all day bringing any and every toy he has in with him :). so far, he has been sleeping in it great! (i do put a gate up at his door just in case he gets up and decides to wander). i still can't believe how big my baby boy is getting. he is growing up too fast!!!!!!!!!




on sunday, we took our big boy to Sesame Street Live! it was a fun show but i can't decide what colin liked better, the characters or his snow cone and cotton candy! i only got one good picture and of course it is of him with his snacks :)


just in case we didn't have enough junk, we went to in-n-out after the show. maybe that should be colin's first job because he looks pretty cute in a paper hat :D



i can't wait for colin to be a big brother. he has already started practicing. he has me wrap up his little babseball guy-doll in his lovey and he holds it and kisses it. he is so sweet. he kisses my belly and puts his binky on it to share with the baby. and last night he was singing to my belly! i'm pretty sure it was "happy birthday" which i guess will be perfect in a few months ;). it was the cutest thing ever!



i have had a few requests for belly pics so here you go! this is my bump so far...i will be 5 months tomorrow.


p.s.-we get to find out the sex of the baby on wednesday!!!!! so stay tuned for an update!!!
