**Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice **

My little girl is growing up too fast. I already have two boys and yes, girls are different. She is a little more dramatic than the boys when she gets hurt (which is hard to imagine with my dramatic boys) and I love her little voice. It sounds like she has inhaled a little helium. Haha. She is my little parrot who copies many things I say, sometimes not good, for example: when I was talking about a celebrity that I was disappointed in (Lindsay Lohan) and called her a name. Breck said it too. Haha. It wasn't a super bad word atleast.
Breck has a little mullet because her hair is growing in but I decided to try pig-tails. They were so cute but only lasted about an hour until she discovered them and pulled them out.
Anyway, I love her and I'm excited to learn how to do girls hair better than mine.
Here are some pics of her pig-tails.





Here is a video of her saying a couple of words:

Trip to California

***Warning*** A lot of pictures below!
Well, we were able to drive down to California for 11 whole days! The weather was chilly but nice and we had a blast with my Mom and siblings. I am the only person from my family living out of California. Yep, it's hard sometimes.

Anyway,we went to Knott's Berry Farm which I haven't been since I was 17 years old. Super fun! I love thrill rides though.
Me and Shawna, my sister-in-law. She's great!
Jake and the kids having fun on a ride.
Jonah and cousin Julie.
Gavin and cousin Ryan.
Jake and Breck who is too attached to the binky.

We went to see Christmas lights after Christmas.



Jake and I went, kid free, to a New Year's Eve party at the home of Jon and Su Billings. Happy New Year!!

Jon and Su.
Me and my honey.
Me and my pals, Kelsi and Su.

We visited Jake's old roommate, Chuck and family. We hadn't seen them in about 3 years. I didn't get a picture of the whole family and I'm bummed. Sorry Cara!

Jake and Chuck. (with Breck)
Jonah, Gavin, and one of the girls, Brooklyn.
Jonah and Brooklyn became buddies that day.

It was so fun to see everybody. We are planning our next trip down............maybe in May?
