BBQ at Edward's House

Went to the Edward's House (home to LJ's friend Dylan -and Hudson very soon!- and his parents Jodel and Justin) for some outdoor fun and BBQ-ing today.
LJ had a wonderful time swimming (seems over his aversion to pools!), on their splash pad, playing with friends, swinging, etc...

Dads on pool duty!

Barrett showing LJ how it's done!


LJ's scared face! Barrett was throwing him up- he liked it but got scared!

We jumped in from ledge about 30 times in a row!

"No more splashing me mom!"

Practicing blowing bubbles


So much fun!

LJ loves this splash pad!

Mark (Ben's dad) was LJ's new favorite person for pushing him in the swing for so long!

Great Sunday afternoon for us!!

Shower for Evan Russell Wood



 Today my friends Jodel, Karyn, Laura and Sang threw a shower for the soon-to-arrive Evan Russell Wood (Due Aug 17, 2012)!!
A picture with the wonderful hostesses!

I am by far the luckiest and most blessed person I know! Thank you everyone who made this day so very special for us, and missed everyone unable to attend!

Another amazing cake by Karyn! 



12 onesies to take a monthly picture of Evan for his first year of life!






Matching outfits for my boys!!! Can't wait to see LJ and Evan wearing these!!

Uggs for Evan this winter!

Best diaper cake Ever! Don't think I'll be able to take it apart because it's so cute!

Shower Games... Can't say these words ...

Cutest idea ever! Everyone at the shower drew Evan a picture for 1st alphabet book- we will treasure this always!




Adorable favors bags with Starbucks giftcard and chocolate inside- Must be most used favors ever!!

What a special and wonderful way to get ready for little Evan's arrival! I am 28 weeks pregnant now (7 months)... Evan is a busy little man- moving, kicking, flipping all the time. I am feeling great though! Now it's time to get everything ready for him to join us... updates to follow! I know it will be here before we know it!

So thankful for all the wonderful friends and family in our lives that made this such a special day!

Dan's Bday Dinner

We had dinner at Queenie and Grandad's house to celebrate Dan's birthday.  And before dinner, everyone had a great time outside- playing golf, riding cars, finding bugs, etc!

Bahia de los Suenos - Day 2

Our last day in the beautiful house on the beautiful beach! Woke up early to an amazing sunrise out of our bedroom window!

Had to make the most of our morning so we headed straight to the beach after breakfast.  LJ did a lot of walking along the shore, while Capi went sailing and Gig went paddle boarding.

LJ and I walking in center of picture...

LJ loved collecting rocks in his bucket

"Run Dada!!!"
Loved walking up and down the shore- just not into the water (we do NOT have a little dare-devil)!

Capi sailing!


As soon as we'd take LJ out, he would start saying "Bye-bye ocean. All done water." But Barrett did get him to enjoy some time out there while pointing out boats, birds, etc...

Then he surprised us by totally relaxing with Gigi on her paddle board! He was so content!

Gigi on paddle board, Barrett and LJ walking, and Capi sailing!

Great ending to a morning in the water!
