California etc.

some pics of what we've been up to...

Our friend Aiden came to visit-he was born a week before Lina
Lina loves to eat!and sleep:)

tummy time:)
Daddy loves Lina:)
One night when I was changing her diaper, she started going again-very common for the little dear:) So I waited a little bit before I put a new one on to let her finish. Once I got the new one under she started again! She filled 4! diapers before she was done. she gets a little backed up every once and a while;-/
Lina loves her bouncy seat!
one day we went on a walk with Angie and Raquel to get some strawberries-Lina was thrilled:)
A few of the girls from church came over to meet Lina and swim
Lina loved the pool:)
Lina at her 2 week check-up...she weighed 8lbs 6oz and was 20in. The Dr. said everything looks great!
Aunt Lydia came home from Ireland!!

We were in california Tues. July 15-Mon. July 21. It was kind of a last minute trip (we bought the tickets 2 days before!) but we wanted to see Bj, Kirsten and Justice before Bj left for Iraq.

Lina's first flight-she was very good-not a peep the whole flight!
The brothers and their babies:)

Justice getting a closer look-at first he wouldn't touch her, but by the end of the week he got pretty comfortable with her and liked to try to pinch her:)
what a cutie!
he was trying to get some privacy whilst filling his pants:)
It was very exciting to watch dad play Xbox Lina loves Aunt Kirsten!

Justice is fearless of the water-he'll jump right in whether you're there to catch him or not!
Evan flying into the pool

poor Kirsten had her wisdom teeth pulled the morning before we got there-she was pretty sleepy so she stayed with Lina while we went to the pool

we couldn't be in CA and not see Rachel! Bj and Kirsten went out to dinner so Justice stayed with us, and then we left Justice with Evan (kinda scary:) and went out too!
definately not me at my finest-why do kids wake up so early? It's a good thing they are so cute to make up for it:)
Bj leaving for work-Justice wanted to go too!
So did Evan:)

we did a lot of sleeping:)

she looks like she was doing the hula or somethingI taught Kirsten how to play Liverpool Rummy-we now have another addict:) Daddy sure likes to take a lot of pictures
sometimes it makes me angry!

cute little family
It was quite a task taking pics with two little babies-only 1 or 2 out of almost 50 pics would turn out:)

Bj right before he left:( We are praying for you!
what would your daddy think??
so cute:)
Uncle Evan and Justice getting ready for the beach
Del Mar beach on the Marine base
Justice loved the waves! playing cards...again:)

Lina and Justice made quite a duet-maybe Evan was biting them:)

Justice got a new pool toy so Evan had to try it out with him before we left

that's all for now:)
