We spent the day on the 3rd Street Promenade today, and the girls had the opportunity to sing a little over the microphone with one of the street performers. Cara did “Twinkle, twinkle” for an audience, and AJ went about ten letters into the ABCs.
I miss Santa Monica. Such fun!

Christmas Cards, Takes 1-55
Posted in Just Life, Shopping, tagged AJ, Cara, christmas, El Dorado Park, Hanna Andersson on December 1, 2009 | 3 Comments »
The girls and I ventured out to El Dorado Park this morning to take pictures for our Christmas cards. Sporting their very sweet Hanna Andersson sweaters, jeans, and matching Ugg boots, they looked very prepared for the fall weather!
I took 49 pictures without getting a single shot of them both looking at the camera [...]
CB Update #2

Cara’s birthday celebration at school was on Friday, three days after her birthday. Miss Tina made her a paper crown (as she does for all birthday celebrations) and Cara felt very, very special indeed.
I have become famous around preschool for Cara’s bento lunches, so I [foolishly] did a bento snack that day for the [...]

I want to thank everyone here for all of the fantastic birthday wishes I received over the weekend. I’m sorry I haven’t been in touch with everyone who called, but we had quite a busy weekend. Nevertheless, it’s nice to feel loved.
On Saturday afternoon, Todd and I took the girls [...]

My BFF, Boss Lisa, and I took the girls to the El Dorado Nature Center this week. Who knew there was such a neat little slice of wilderness within walking distance of our house?
My little city slickers weren’t entirely sure what to make of it. AJ isn’t much of a walker, so she [...]

Well, we finally did it. We broke down and bought passes to Disneyland. The girls and I were going a little stir-crazy on Tuesday morning, so at 10:00 I said, “What do you think about going to Disneyland today?” Like any other red-blooded American child, they were all over it.
We spent the [...]

A new picture of our little Miss AJ.
We were trying on hats from last year today. AJ likes to dress up.
I’m Melting!

I know, I know, I’m days late posting the Knott’s pictures. Unfortunately, summer has finally appeared here and I’m too hot to be bothered to do anything. Even cleaning is reserved for the early morning and evening hours, when the temperature isn’t so miserable.
I was really, really hoping we could avoid summer altogether [...]

The dirtiest kid in the world is finally seeking some help. I’m not sure our washing machine is up to the job.
