Spring is finally here yay!

I spent my lunch hour with these guys today and a new pool I got for them. Loving the warm weather !

A spring break..

I took a couple days off this week. Darrian is on spring break and I wanted to take some time to entertain him. Our church is also hosting 35 families for two weeks through the Winter Nights program, and I signed up to help out with the children Tuesday night so wanted to be off for that.

I was REALLY bummed to see rain in the forecast all week. The only nice day was Monday so we packed it in. My Mom went with me and we took the kids to Chrissy Field for a picnic. I've been wanting to go for a while to take the kids pictures there. It didn't work out so great. It never does which is why I hire people :) it takes two people to wrangle them for pictures. But I did get a few I liked. We then went to Fort Point so Darrian could wait for the waves to come in and splash him. :)
Then we dropped the babies off, my Mom off, and met Kelly and the kids at the park for a couple hours. Tuesday Kelly and the kids came over to play for a bit, it was raining so it was nice to have company to keep D occupied.

It was a good break, wednesday we just stayed home and relaxed and I had to work in the afternoon.

Hoping for some sun this weekend ..

Easter continued

More pics :) hope you all had a good Easter!

Happy Easter!

We had a great Easter weekend, lots of fun and family time. We went to the city egg hunt on Saturday and then to a picnic in a park after, Mom and Ray stopped by the house and dropped off Easter baskets. Then we dyed eggs and Darrian helped Keith wash the car, tired yet ? I was!
Sunday was church, baskets at home, egg hunt and a delicious chicken I roasted. It was a good day, a great Easter.

A story to write down...

My babies are growing so fast, learning so much. Miles is now ways "Mo nana" (More Banana) and both trying to talk up a storm.

So I wanted to share this story and picture on the blog. This twosome. You can't leave them for too long. The other day I walk in the living room and see both babies on the table trying to get in the highchair. Miles sees me and hits the deck, pretends to be asleep. I had to laugh it was a total "if I can't see her she can't see me moment" Nice try kid.

A fun girls day..

Saturday I went wine tasting with some of my favorite ladies. We were once lucky enough to work together, and we've been blessed to keep our friendship going. I look forward to our time together. It's always filled
with lots of laughs, good for the soul.

We went time tasting in Livermore, I have never been. It was pretty and the wines were really good. It was a great time. I'd also like to give a big thank you to Keith for holding it down at home so I can enjoy my friends for a day! He's the best.

Hugs and Kisses

Quincy gives the BEST hugs, tight squeezes. I love them. He does it when HE wants too which makes it all the more better when I get one. Past few days Miles is his object of affection and it cracks me up because Miles doesn't always WANT a hug, but he's gonna get one lol. Miles has learned to give kisses, such a sweet love bug. He gives them on demand and I can't stop asking. I love these hugs and snuggles.

Big Brother..

Darrian is a really sweet big brother. He has his moments, but overall he really loves his brothers. I love seeing them interact. I can't wait till they learn to say his name, he keeps trying to get them to say his name.
He makes them laugh, and plays with them. The other day I put Quincy in ninja costume I was given. Darrian LOVED it. He plays dress up all the time and he was so happy that Ninja Quincy was ready to play. I should put Miles in the firefighter costume next time. Darrian was making goofy faces with Miles and he was laughing so hard. They love their big brother, do do I <3

Winter days..

So winter finally rolled into town. I won't complain, not because I don't want to, but because every time I start someone reminds me that it's been a seasonally easy winter. Whatever. I was so excited to see the sun by the weekend I bundled the kids up and rushed outside. Who cares that it was barely 50 degrees out and wind gust up to 20 mph. When life hands you lemons people.. Or windy days with no rain, you fly a kite.

We survived a week of rain, a little wind wouldn't stop us. Natalie also visited us this week, met the twins for the first time. It was short and chaotic but I'm glad it happened. St. Patty's day came and went, we didn't celebrate really. Darrian celebrated at school, and I shared a Guinness and nail polish painting with my girlfriends that night.

Sunday was church. I am really enjoying church again. It's been awhile. It's quiet time, and my church is so welcoming. Don't worry I won't be turning into my Mom anytime soon, just kidding. Sunday though they talked about how religion divides people so often, when at the end of the day all religion base is about love. Without it there is no belief system, and at the end of the day we all bleed the same. Anyways all good stuff.

A pretty good week despite a time change and rain. There I said it.
