I'd never imagine...

Lately I find myself thinking, I never would have imagined... One thing in particular is that I never would imagined telling my kids to, "STOP casting spells at each other!" That's right, my kids cast spells at each other ALL the time! JJ uses just about anything as a wand. Eva, pretty much always plays what JJ wants to play, and seldom complains. However, she does get tired of JJ casting the "Unforgivable Spells" at her (you must know a thing or two about Harry Potter). These Duels often lead to real fights, and I have to send the kids to the Gryffindor common room!!!

Cyism's

While we were on vacation, Cy really started talking in complete sentences. He says rather often, "I NO WANT!" He has a lot of charming things he says and does, like when he throws anything he says, "HIKE!" He also says, "TA DA!"for everything, when he opens the door, or we put his shoes on, ect. His most common word? "TRUCK!", which for a long time sounded like, "DUCK!"Cy also begs to be "side", or outside all the time. Cy has a really deep voice, he says, "so good" so deep, I think it's so cute. And the final Cyism that I will share, he asks, "Mommy hold you?"

Spring Break

We were fortunate enough to go to California for Spring Break. We left home on a cold and snowy day, and enjoyed a week full of marvelous sunshine!!! Sadly a month later and we still have snow. 
We stayed at the most beautiful resort, Marriott Laguna Cliff, the had a splash area for the kids and a lil pool perfect for Cy. The resort is adjacent to a park that over looks the ocean. Gorgeous!!! 





We also spent a few days at Disney Land. The last time we went Eva was a tiny bit too short to ride the Matterhorn, she received a Donald Pass which allowed her to go to the front of the line. JJ is rocking out in the back, he was so excited! Followed by a picture of Spence and the kids in the "Chew Chew Train". Cy's favorite place is the scout camp where he could run and play, the big kids enjoyed it too! 




 And finally, one of our favorite places in the OC... Crystal Cove State Park. We love it!!! It's a great place for the kids to play, and I just love the beach/ocean!





I love spending time with my little family. They won't be little for long, so we are trying to enjoy all the time we have together!!!
