Sneak Peak for Halloween

Because we really have the cutest Strawberry Shortcake, I had to do a little sneak peak of what is to come for Halloween. Ali had a costume parade at school, and (I know I am biased) she was definitely the hit of the parade!

Here she is with the rest of her class. The lighting is kind of bad.

She really did have fun, despite the lack of smile. She was so excited about this parade that she woke up last night at 1am, then 2am, then 3 am... Help me!

Prancing and Ponies

We have been especially lucky this last few months to have Nick home each weekend (This last week was the last weekend with Nick for awhile). We decided to make it a good one, so we headed out to Griffith Park, where I have been wanting to go for awhile. The girls rode ponies and we all hopped aboard a mini train around the park.

Me and Kat. She only let me hold her for this picture. One second after this she "had" to sit by herself. I guess it is good that I am having a new baby, because my old baby is getting too old.

The ponies were a huge hit (no surprise). Kat got to go first in the line of kids and so she thought she was queen of the track.

I think Ali was most excited because she got to pick out which of the ponies to ride. According to her, this one is definitely the fastest one.

After they were done they didn't want to get off the ponies. They probably could have spent all day riding.
Last: Kat and Dez started a little dance class

Kat had to dress the part, and when I told them to pose for the camera, this was their response.

Random assortment of our month

This month has been kind of calm. Since Ali has started school it has been days full of drop-offs and pick-ups, but there have been a few photo worthy moments.

For labor day we spent the 3 day weekend in San Diego. For the girls that means Abuelita's house! They love that they have all different toys there. Plus this little rocking chair (along with lots of different books) is a big favorite.

We went to Sea World, which the girls loved... until Daddy sat us in the wet zone of Shamu's show. I should have gotten a picture of all of us soaked, but there were NO smiles involved.
I had to add this picture because it has Nick in it. A rare occurrence, I know, Nick has had decent rotations this month, and every weekend work-free!

Alicia lost yet another tooth! Here she is showing me her "hole."

Kat started gymnastics!

She is in the same class as Ali, so of course they have to hold hands most of the time.

This is just a picture of Ali that I liked.

For Ramona, here I am at 33 weeks! With my super itchiness, I am hoping that this baby comes early.

This is a picture for Jen, cause she always says that I am pushing out my belly in normal pictures, so this is me really pushing out my belly.
