DATE NIGHT

Lance and I finally had our first date night in about 3 months. The girls and I may not make it one more day together. Being stuck in the house is so hard for us all, so they were shipped to have a sleepover at pa and meems.

We went to dinner at Bankok Grill( Thai food, Lances choice) and is was super good. I am glad he made me try something new, I can't wait to go again. Next to the movies. My pick, Juno or P.S. I Love You and Lances, Cloverfield or I am Legend. You know I won so Juno it is. It was really cute and we had a great time. As much as we love our girls it was so nice to go to bed solo and wake up solo. We should try date night more often I think!

PHOTO CLASS

I just finished my 101 photo class taught by Nicole Hill. It was so much info very quickly but I love it. I am taking her 102 class next month. Here is a bit of what I have been taking. I am not looking to be pro or anything but it is so nice to know what all the buttons on my camera are for. Hopefully this will prep me for my last years goal to finally learn to do digital scrap booking. You know I had to take pics of my favorite cookies!!!I had to follow meg, shooting what she does in a day step by step. I had no idea that this was going to be so much work. She so over me taking pics of her.

9 MONTHS

Ava just had her 9 month apt and is doing so good. She is 20 lbs 3 oz, in the 73% and 28.5 inches tall, in the 78%. She is finally eating a bit more, will have nothing to do with babyfood but loves people food. She has the spiciest little personality and is the happiest girl. We are so blessed to have such amazing girls.

CALI CHRISTMAS

My whole family went to Cali this year for Christmas. We had a great time. We stayed at Jen and Kevins house in Huntington Beach.

Meem and the girls.

Disneyland

It was so cold in Disneyland. I had to buy gloves, beanies and blankets and we were still cold. Usually Meg is tied to meem at all times but not this trip. She forgot about meem and it was all about Jen. Our flight, on the way home, was delayed 3 hours and Meg said to me I miss Jen, our plane is not coming so can I go back to Jens. Its a Small World. My dad loves it, look at his cute smile.Ted bought every accessory. I think he had a good time.Sea WorldThe Mega Claw. Lance plays the claw everywhere we go and he usually wins. For as cold as it was, Ava was still so happy.
