Studio 5 and Photo Shoot

On Wednesday, I flew to Utah for Shabby Baby. On Thursday, we were on Studio 5 modeling women's and little girl's dresses. So, for those of you who have wanted to see m growing body, check it out. Addi had a bit of a breakdown about 5 minutes before we were supposed to go on live, and the only way she would stop crying was if she was eating. So, you will see her on TV chomping on a bag of Ritz crackers. Even with a mouth full of food, she is still pretty cute. My sister, Katie and her daughter McKinley are modeling too, so to see us cut and paste this http://studio5.ksl.com/?nid=58&sid=3721920
Here are some pictures od Addi and Kinsi making funny faces in the mirror of the dressing room.

Then, on Friday we had our photo shoot for our fall line. Addi and Kinsi were the two models. Addi loved having her picture taken for most of the shoot, but of course freaked out after the last clothing change because she got a scratch on her foot and all of the M & M's in the world could not calm her down. Why is it that my daughter is the high maintenance one? Here is a picture of the two of them in one of our new dresses, we think it is pretty cute and of course Addi has her mouth full of chips.

4th of July

For the weekend we went up to the cabin for the weekend with the fam. We spent the weekend watching movies and reading and saw the fireworks show on the lake. We had Gidget (or "Jiget" as Addi calls her) with us. Addison loved dragging her around the village.

Megan's visit

So much catching up to do...Last week, my good friend and old roommate Megan came into town. We look forward to her visit every summer when she comes with her family. Addi and I met her at the beach in Laguna to play in the sand and water. Addi did so good with the waves. She is usually a total wimp in the ocean. And as you can see, she spent the better part of our time there chomping her apple and of course chasing birds. What a fun day at the beach!

Busy Weekend

Because our life has been crazy this last month with birthday parties, weddings and showers, we decided to play hooky from church and go to Sea World with our good friends Jaime and Dan. It was the first thing we had done as a family in many weeks. It was so great. The weather was not too hot, the kids behaved perfectly, and we were able to see all that we wanted to see and still get home by 5:30. Here are a few pictures of Addi and Luke, we still think that they are in love.

I know this is a lot of pictures, but they are just too cute.

They have a new Sesame Street water area for the kids

Kori's Shower

Marsha and I, with the help of many others threw Kori a baby shower this weekend. I think I was more excited for it than Kori. We had it at Casa Gamino in their banquet room, and it turned out so cute (the food was great too). Here are a few pictures of us and the decorations, it was a jungle theme just like Kori's nursery.

Death Cab

In an effort to "live it up" before baby #2 comes into the picture, Ian got me tickets to Death Cab for Cutie for Mother's Day (who it was more of a gift for, I'm really not sure). So, on Monday, the Blad's joined us for a great night out, starting at Cheesecake Factory and then heading to the show. It was amazing. A few minutes into it I told Ian, it was almost like it wasn't real, it was so good. For my birthday, which is next month, Ian has already purchased tickets to Jimmy Eat World, (see parenthesis above). It should be great, as I have seen them a couple of times with a few of you "bloggers" out there. Good times.

The cat is out of the bag...

Well, I am officially PREGNANT! I am due December 21st, which just happens to be one day before the due date that I had with Addi. We are hoping for an early arrival like last time, just hopefully not on Addi's birthday. Addi still doesn't understand what is going on. When we ask her what is in mommy's tummy, she always replies, "belly button." She is going to be in for the shock of her life when the world as she knows it does not revolve solely around her. I dug up a picture of my last pregnancy to show everyone what you (and I) have to look forward to...

This was me at Sea World about 3 weeks before I delivered.
