The Cheerios Stage
Meet my baby Annabelle-
We are at that place where she has officially entered what I like to call, "The Cheerios stage." You other moms out there know that this is the stage when you find once wet, now dried Cheerios in diverse and often unexpected places- like inside a sock, or stuck in your hair. This is most definitely the stage where these same shrunken O's have to be scraped out of the small gaps in the car seats, stroller, and high chair.
Oh yeah, we are so there.
Meet my son, Dillon (and his "don't expect me to smile for the camera" face).
He has a very strange phobia...... Cheeriophobia! He won't sit at the same table as someone who is eating them. In fact he'd rather not be in the same room at all! He can literally smell them from 100 feet away- even on someone's breath! HE HATES CHEERIOS.
So, you could, at very least, say we have a conflict of interests here. Annabelle is having a great time exploring the great taste, texture and technique of Cheerio-eating and Dillon is basically living his worst nightmare! James LOVES to tease him and throw a stray Cheerio into his Frosted Flakes, or something. I don't think its very funny, because he won't eat the rest of his cereal!
Our little Annie now has her two bottom front teeth and can sign milk. I tried all I could do to get them both on camera and ended up scraping the inside of her mouth with my fingernail!! I feel sooo bad!
At least I was able to get a pretty good picture of them :)
We have a new member of the household! Meet my littlest brother Nathan.
He has absolutely NO FEAR of Cheerios, which works out well. He's living with us for a couple of months this Summer, and we're thrilled to have him. Dillon tells me just about every day,
"Mom, today is going to be the best day ever. Nate's here!"
In about 7 weeks, our home will be overflowing with people! Meet my Sister-in-law, Lyna.
I've added the link to her new blog in the sidebar (Bellebordel). It's got a lot of great make-up tips and who wouldn't want a few tips from her?!!? I know I do.
Her and my two little darling neices are going to be spending a good chunk of the summer here escaping their cramped, fast-paced NYC lifestyle to the wide open sunny skies of Southern California :) We are UBER excited about it!! Hope they like Cheerios!!

California LOVE
Let the beach days begin!
We spent both of the last two Saturdays at the beach. First, with my little brother at Del Mar beach on the base. We had a crazy good time and I don't know how I'll ever live away from the ocean ever again!
I was so worried about Annabelle and how she would fare with the wind, sun and sand, but the pictures speak for themselves! She thoroughly enjoyed herself- even when she stuck her sandy hand in her mouth (I wish I'd have taken a picture of that) and gagged a little, she still laughed and thought it was funny! :)
The boys made an amazing sand castle, played "Davide Hasselhoff and boogie-boarded. Annabelle and I just soaked up the pure enjoyment of it all.
Don't feel obligated to watch the video. Some side effects may include, jealousy, nausea and self-pity, but are rare. Please tell your doctor if you are experiencing any of these symptoms, as they may be signs of a rare, but serious disease called California-envy!! ;)
This last Saturday we met my mom and step-dad at the other base beach- San Onofre. It was a little colder and pretty windy, but do you think any of my kids noticed?
Grandma got her grandbaby fix :)
I love that my brother, Dustin and his family had family pictures taken now that they have their sweet addition- Shiloh. Here's a few of them, although my insanely pretty sister in law made me promise not to post any with her in them.... she's nuts!

Can you tell which baby is which?
Most people tell me Annabelle looks like Charlie. Well, I came across a picture of Dillon yesterday that totally freaked me out a little! It looks strkingly similar to one I took of Annabelle a few months ago. See if you can tell which baby is which! (They were taken when they were the exact same age, too)
