whirlwind weekend!

Omar's mom, sister and his sister's fiance came to visit last weekend. We had such a fun time with them and they were sweet enough to help us get our yard cleaned up and planted! Maria (Omar's mom) is the master gardener and taught us so much and got dirty working with us. We were lucky enough to eat lots of her Mexican homecooking and the kids were in heaven to be with Grandma Maria. Plus we got to go wedding dress shopping with Aunt Cynthia and we found her a beautiful dress!

Sienna loving the flowers and being "helpful"

There are so many reasons I should not post this picture-- like my husband thinking he is funny and me looking hagard... but Maria looks like a 25 year old model so I had to include it!

Sienna loved helping with the flowers.



planting our walkway

Omar laying a stone walkway along our driveway... I am so happy to have it done!

the kids loved the weather and being outside all day digging and playing!

yard work days your kids get to look white trash, right??

I hope I do not get in trouble for putting this on here but here is Cynthia in the dress she found!

We are so glad the Fabian's made it to Utah and so is our yard :)

18 months-- HOORAY!!

You gotta love this boy... and I LOVE that he is in NURSERY now!!

He is a wild one... like today he had to have the stroller with him, literally, while he ate!

But he is the absolute sweetest boy in the whole world!

white trash OR ghetto rockstar

A few weeks ago I (the professional) gave Malachi a hair cut, here he is before I started.

Omar did not like it, so he took matters into his own hands!
He says Malachi cannot be white trash because he is Mexican-- I say he can LOOK white trash!

Good thing Mac is so cute...

and has a princess for a sister!!

raw talent

The other day I had an appointment so I had to wake the kids up from nap. I opened Malachi's door and he sat up so I went to get Sienna thinking he would take a minute waking up. When I came back a few minutes later and he was sitting in the exact same place facing the wall-- when I walked in I realized he was SLEEPING SITTING UP!!

policy models

My brother has a small clothing company called POLICY CLOTHING and we are big fans... sometimes my kids are even his models, especially those shades!

do you love Mac's glasses stuck in his binki?!?


the kids with their friend Vincent

she is such a natural :)!

Now Mikey just wishes he could afford them!!

New Background...

so....all of you have been thinking for quite sometime...WHY is Heather's background so ugly?? Well, its not her fault!! She has me for a friend, who said I would help her change it, then I did, but it wasnt cute and we ran out of time....AND then I NEVER WENT BACK TO FIX IT. Heather has been so very patient waiting for me to make it not so ugly anymore....
Its a good thing her family is so stinkin cute so you have kept coming back!!

Thanks for your patience Heather!! Love you!!!!!!
Micaela :) your lame best friend!

the perk!!

There is a major perk of having kids 1 year and 2 weeks apart... they are best friends!
