Picture Update!!

Maegen taking a nap!

It has definitely been a while since I've updated the blog, so I'm adding a bunch of pics today that will tell you a little about what has been going on in our lives here in sunny San Diego. We are all doing good and have adjusted to our new life of work and school. Both the girls are doing great and growing up way too fast and John and I continue to try and balance everything that needs to be done in a day. Most importantly we are all happy, healthy and enjoying life. We hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend, especially you Aussies who get a five day weekend!! Enjoy your ANZAC Day as we all use that day to pause and remember those who sacrificed and served to give us the wonderful Australia we all love!!
We have slowly begun potty training. Some days are good, others not so good, but we are in no hurry. She definitely is more willing to try at school and many times at home when we ask her to use the potty we are told "Kenzie do it with Cristina." (Cristina is her teacher)
Maegen has begun to sit at the table with us for dinner and loves it!! She has great head control and sits across from Mackenzie and smiles at her crazy sister. Dinner is now a lot easier for us all as John and I can eat without having to hold her and Maegen enjoys feeling included.
Getting Mackenzie to eat can be tough some days! We never know how our meal time will turn out and I don't think I'll ever stop stressing about whether she is eating enough!
We celebrated my birthday with a yummy red velvet cake! I had a very nice day with a breakfast at work and dinner with my family. We also went to Disneyland on the weekend.
Happy Birthday to me!!
In line waiting to get into Disneyland. We had a great day. Not too many people so the lines weren't that long and Maegen got to go on a few rides including Peter Pan, Small World and the Haunted Mansion. Mackenzie also enjoyed going on the Pirates of the Carribean ride with me. She calls it the scary ride and actually enjoys being scared!
Waiting patiently to get inside!!
Self portrait time on Dumbo!!

Maegen and Daddy posed for a pic on the carousel, but got off before it was time to go!!

This is one of Mackenzie's favorite rides
Time for a break for both girls.


Dancing with Daddy
This is my favorite place at California and I think Mackenzie might just like it too! It's a big room with a whole bunch of screens that play parts of the Disney movies...so much to see!
Maegen already wearing her sisters clothes....especially when Daddy is left to dress her and goes to the wrong draws!!
Mackenzie after spending the morning washing the car with Daddy
This is a diaper cake that my friend Lynda made for me...I'm finally going to take it apart!
Sisters having a talk while getting ready for school.
Maegen has a boyfriend at school already!! Connor and her enjoy tummy time together and holding hands!
