Disney on Ice..."Where are all the CARS?"

I have the best MIL (mother-in-law) ever, honestly I do (and if anyone wants to challenge me on
that, I say BRING IT ON!! :)

The kiddos and I had a lot of fun spending time with her while Paul was gone. Thank you, thank you, thank you for all that you did for us!

and top of everything she did for us in the last month, she topped it off with Disney on Ice tickets!!

She knew Madilyn would love it, as her favorite thing ever are the Disney CARS from the movie. Well, the CARS part, was only a tiny bit of the show, but it was so much fun!

and it kind of got me in the mood to go to Disneyland...although we have to wait until CARS land is complete sometime in 2012, I think. :)

Madilyn wearing her Mator hat...came with the $10 cotton candy. Too cute :)

Grandma in her tiara and Madilyn in her Mator hat. Paul is still pretty tan from being in Bahrain...can really tell when he is sitting next to me! haha.

MIL brought a tiara just in case Madilyn wanted to wear it, but just as we suspected, she wouldn't hear of it. So, we tried it on Cowen...he wouldn't hear of it either :)

Thanks for a really fun day MIL!!!

Spring Fever...Big Time!

I have been on a little "hiatus" from blogging lately. We have been having such a wonderful time spending time together and getting back into our routine again. It has been more than amazing having Paul back home.
We have been enjoying the nice weather days recently by spending our evenings playing outside with our beautiful babies.

Madilyn is becoming quite the tricycling pro...although she sometimes gets fixated on watching her feet pedal, instead of watching where she is going...hmmm, we are working on that one.

This little face LOVES being outside and likes to watch his sister run around.

Last night, Madilyn was playing football with Paul and some of the neighborhood boys..."just out seeing what those boys are doing" is what Madilyn says :) too funny. The night before that, they all played soccer. Madilyn is really loving sports.

I can't believe that this little guy is almost 8 months old now. He is finally sleeping ALL the way through the night...like 8pm to 9am or so..how great is that??

I am so enjoying being mom to these 2 faces.

am I lucky or what?
