Labor Day Weekend

A couple of weeks ago, the girls met Courtney, Natalie, Mason and Sam at Uncle Larry's restaurant. 


The kids love Uncle Larry.  He swung each of them by their arms and they had a blast.  Thanks, Uncle Larry!


Katelyn is loving Kindergarten.  She especially loves her teacher.  She says she is very nice and says funny things like, "hocus pocus, everyone focus."  The first week of school, her classmates had to look for clues Clifford left for them in the classroom.  They baked Clifford a big bone and he took a bite out of it.  Her teacher shares class pictures on a Shutterfly site for parents to download.


Although she loves Kindergarten, Katelyn had a tougher time adjusting to her after school program.  There were not as many of her classmates there.  The first week she was staying by Teacher O's side most of the day.  Each day is getting better and she is slowly getting more used to it.  She no longer takes naps during the day.  She is fine during the day, but wakes up at night now.  Daddy thinks her body is adjusting and regulating itself.  It's been a tiring couple of weeks with the the middle of night awakenings!


Mommy set up a play date with Lucia who is also in Katelyn's Kindergarten class and after school program.  Lucia was crying every day at the after school program.  Mommy thought Katelyn and Lucia could help each other by becoming friends.


Uncle Albert and Auntie Lety had everyone over for a BBQ.  Auntie Suzanna curled Katelyn's hair.  She loved it and was sad when the curls came out.


Bella tried to mess with Christian when he was taking a nap.


The girls went to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk for the first time.  Their favorite ride was being co-pilots on the helicopter.

The girls got a special treat and stayed over night in a hotel and headed to Monterey Bay aquarium the next day.  The great outer bay tank had hammerhead sharks.   Bella took a seat while the sharks swam by her.


Katelyn thought these fish were funny looking.


The girls played in this clam for quite awhile being silly and laughing.  Mommy enjoys moments like these when they are not fighting over things.


Bella wanted to take a picture with Mommy since they were both wearing sunglasses.


Auntie Jill and Millie FaceTimed the other day.  It's so hot in their area,  Millie got to wear just her diaper.


Katelyn has been doing crafts at home like making felt animals.
