The Past Days

We have had a lot of fun the last few weeks and here is a little re-cap of all the joys:
Rael is rolling all over the house now and she does not stay in one spot any longer.


She had a horrible earache this last weekend and is finally back to her happy self after a lot of fussy days. She loved being held – Uncle Tim and Auntie Nicole got some snuggles that made her happy. Laylie did a good job making her laugh here and there.




Laylie has been such a big helper - She helps clean the house, take care of Rael,  run errands with me and even mows the lawn for her daddy. We love her tender heart and feel so grateful she is our daughter.





 
My Aunt Beth flew in from Washington with her fiancĂ© Ron and we threw them an engagement party at my parents’ house. We loved hanging out with our family and celebrating the new couple being in love.





My sweet sister Lisa turned 30 and we had a lovely “Night in Paris” birthday party at Crepes and Corks in Del Mar. We had tons of fun celebrating Lisa, eating yummy crepes and hanging out with family again.





Jason and I went to my childhood friend Megan’s wedding up in Murrieta. It was a beautiful wedding and Megan looked stunning. We were blessed by our awesome friends, the Watts, to have them watching our girls as we attended the wedding. Laylie had a blast with them making cookies, playing with Chancen, and dressing up in her Tinker Bell outfit. It was a treat to be able to enjoy each other’s company knowing our girls were well taken care of – but we sure did miss them.
                                            





We are excited that the Holidays are coming and that we will be making more fun memories as the days go by. Bring it on!!!

Happy Halloween


Happy Halloween!
We had a wonderful and super fun evening! Laylie and Rael dressed up as the cutest little leopards and they looked darling together. Before the fun began we stopped at G.G.’s house to say a little hello since she helped make Laylie’s costume come together perfectly. The girls loved showing off their outfits and taking pictures with her. Then we were on our way to meet some friends at the Horizon Church Harvest Party. Laylie had so much fun jumping in the different bounce houses, going down huge slides, and even watching the human cannonball fly through the air and land safely in a net. After spending some time at the church, we headed to Fairbanks Ranch where we had the greatest time eating dinner, hanging out with friends, and going trick-or-treating. Laylie enjoyed going door to door and getting candy – and folks, the legends are true – in Fairbanks Ranch they give you king size candy bars. We had such a fun night and Laylie is now very excited about eating her dinner each and every night so she can get 1 piece of candy.

Sullivan Gregory

Our sweet little nephew Sullivan Gregory Troncone has arrived. He arrived on October 30th at 6:21 weighing 8 lbs and measuring 20 inches. We could not wait to meet him and hold him when we found out he had arrived. The very next morning we headed down to Scripps Memorial in La Jolla and we got to hold him and take pictures. Laylie was in love and she would not even let us take a full turn holding him - because she wanted to snuggle him the whole time we were there visiting. As we held Sullivan, Jason and I could not believe how much Rael has grown in the past 4 months and is no longer a tiny newborn. Sullivan – we adore you and love you to pieces. We can't wait to watch you grow up and play with our girls. You truly are blessed to have the best parents and big sister. You light up our world and all of your cousins already can’t wait to play with you.
