In this video Santa has just made his way to Santa's chair and children have run to be the first in line. This is what Armanie thinks about it. Not much has changed from last year!

Armanie and Jerry a year later!

She owned this house from the moment the candy arrived not deterred once from decorating or even tempted much by sampling the stucco or fixtures.

She loved it.

and licked her fingers when she was done!

Winter is in our house!! Thermostat said 56 degrees

I broke and turned on the heater Come on PG&E bill I want to see how much you are!

Armanie loves this photo book her YaYa sent to her. So much it can be the perfect incentive to clean her room, brush her teeth, pretty much whatever I want her to do. And she love showing her friends like Viv, the boo boo she got over the summer or her cousin Rowdy!

Armanie's fashion these days

I've tried to fix the text so it lines up and isn't so helter skelter but to no avail, excuse my inability to make my blog look pretty

"textually"

ps Locke just reminded me of where helter skelter originated. I'm using it for the meaning of chaotic but you can say I 'murdered' this post with the horrible text placement. Help is needed by proficient bloggers!!

Visitors

This was so long ago. But my sister and her little one came Ella had a rude awakening of what it's like to be with a 2 year old. Poor girl only slept when she was away from Armanie Here she is after a 20 minute outting in the back pack.

These two are going places. See Ella so excited shes coming out of the screen in the front! Heather wants a bike for Christmas just FYI Towards the end of the visit...they are better friends

After an evening stroll. The wagon becomes a bed. She stayed like this for a good 3 blocks

We are expecting. See side bar for more details but the babe is due sometime in June. I have to keep perspective with this preg. I do feel more sick but that's because my body is working right?! Almost out of the woods with sickness stuff and feeling better everyday but still not ME.

Yogurt kisses

Miss Cinderella herself

Didn't care to fill the glove with popcorn just wanted

to eat it!

It's only a matter of time until she finds one!

Stanford WON!!

It's been a long time coming! 14ish inches Gone! I feel so much better. Really some other child will love this hair more than I :) Ps. I want to go shorter! Thanks Masa!

Halloween costumes!

So my original idea for A's costume was this sweet little car freshner tree! I thought just a little green felt and white felt... simple!

That was before we went to Utah where Aunt Alicia has almost all of the Disney Princess movies at Little ones use.

Needless to say we watched a few...

So The costume has changed...She'll now be this

I feel she's the most realistic Princess there is. Although Aurora is runner up. I just don't like the true love kiss at 16 part. hahha just kidding.

So we went to the fabric store this morning and brought a picture of Miss Cinderella and off I go to try to create this wonderful dress to fit Armanie! It should be lots of fun!

*Really this story must be told*

At night Armanie goes to sleep with 'armanie' the baby doll.

I thought it was sly of me to put 'armanie' in bed already to make the transition of going to be

easier, with family being in town and all.

But she wanted baby doll out because she didn't want to go to bed.

So here she is in her determined self saying I want baby, no diaper.

Half Moon bay beach

Caught them both in a trans (sp?)

I wish this picture came out more clear

I love this picture. Shin guards on

she's ready to play!

Armanie's close friends; Jack and Anna. I love it when they come over very selfish, but I can actually do things when they are together! They all play so well. Thanks friends for making my day easy. Anytime you want to drop your kids off.... Maegan and Jane, don't hesitate! Perfect pair!

She makes messes he cleans them up or

eats them up :)

Pez Museum

We recently went to the PEZ museum in Burlingame. It was a fun trip. The owner has most of the Pez's ever made.

Look at the 'Mexican Boy' on the left :) Cute
