Hello! Welcome back to my bliggity blog!! My oh my has sooo much happened since I last graced you with a post! We have 2 babies now! James Kelly was born May 20th, 2009. After having preterm labor on and off for 6 weeks I finally was induced 3 weeks early because of pre-eclampsia! Anywho, he came out healthy, strong, and tiny at 5lbs 4oz! Maddie is such a good big sister, she wakes up every morning and gives "baby brudder" big sloppy kisses until he cries from being smothered. Kelly is finally at work in Riverside and we are living in a beautiful apartment in Corona! I'm sorry I have been such a bad blogger, and I am not very good at telling stories or writing things, but I will do the best I can and try to blog once a week until we get a computer of our own, then I will do it as often as I can! Thanks for reading! P.S. pictures of baby James still to come!!

What happy cheesy girls!

Is she not such a happy girl!

This is me the week before Baby J arrived!!! My belly always seemed to get in the way!
So here are some pictures of our summer so far... starting from here at the bottom!!!

YES ON PROP 8!!!

Protect the sanctity of marriage and the freedom of religion by voting YES on prop 8 this election!! I feel very strongly about this. We need to tell the people that we know, our neighbors, our teachers, our co-worker, family, and friends!!! Let's have OUR voices heard, not just the voice of the minority. THANK YOU!!!!!

o.. p.s. Kelly and I are having another baby!!!! WOOHOO... (kinda ;)) due around June 8, 2009!

Maddie's One!

Sorry I have been so bad with blogging but here is our most recent milestone in Maddie's life! On August 30th she turned 1!!!

Nana and Maddie looking adorable in pink!

Dada and Maddie (Maddie is gagging herself, her new trick)

This little girl was a speed racer on Esther's big girl trike!

CAUTION!! TMI!! NOT FOR THE WEAK STOMACHED!

So Maddie had tio much big people food yesterday and was having a hard time pooping in her diaper.. so I had a bright idea of putting her on the toilet so she could have some good leveredged pooping and she was on for about 1 minute before she got some momentum going and as you could see it worked!

I can do it I can do it!!!

look at those miniature people terds!!! Grandma calls it "man poop"!

I did it I did it!!

"Bye Bye PooPoo"

This was her favorite part!

Thanks for participating.

Our Trip to Beverly Hills

The MAC store at the Beverly Center mall was having a party for their new spring line and they had this handsome hunk standing in the window being painted by the party guests.. well I had to get myself a piece of the action, so I went to the window and just stared... well the nice shman running the show brought me in and asked if I had steady hands and I of course said yes so he let me paint the pocket on his rippling pecks..

Just a little flushed.

Isn't She Lovely!

I know that you shouldn't brag... but I can't help it! She is just so cute! Maddie is just learning how to really get scootin' and now she can successfully go in the opposite direction she is trying to go.. BACKWARDS! It's crazy how time has flown, she is already 6 1/2 months! Wow. Well I love my little lady and we are having so much fun.

Esther and Maddie Visit the Easter Bunny

Kellie Ann and I went to South Coast Plaza yesterday with the girls and bought coordinating dresses at H&M and then went and found the Scary Easter Bunny.. Well at least I thought he was scary, the girls were fascinated with him. This is the only picture with them actually looking at the camera all of the other ones were of them staring and touching the bunny!

Maddie loves to jump soo much that she has TWO jumpers. One is the "Johnny Jumper" shown above and the second is a jungle jumperoo. She is so get and gets sooo much air... its hilarious!
