JANUARY/ FEBRUARY 2011

OK, since my 3rd baby is due in like, uh, tomorrow, March 25, I thought I would get caught up. Here's a bit of what has been going on here.

Lily's new robe makes a great 2 headed 4 armed monster.

I told them to show me their babies and they posed exactly alike. They have never looked so similar to me until this pic.

January had some gorgeous 70+ degree weather so we hit up the beach.

I made Daisy into a mermaid and she was so happy she sat there for at least 30 minutes.

Sean and his buddy Jeff went for a little snorkel and brought back some critters for the kids to observe.

One critter being my favorite Pycnopodia helianthoides, or the sunflower star. They are the 'fastest' sea star around and are SO soft (or slimy, depending on who you ask) to the touch.

In January and February the girls both tried out a gymnastic class. They loved it!

My girls and I. I think I am about 7 1/2 months here.

As far as most of February goes, I accidentally deleted ALL of the February pictures off of my camera. I have had some serious pregnant brain this time around. SO sad about that! Anyway, on Feb 19 we moved into a new place just up a few blocks from where we are now. It has a bit more space and is working out great. It is over 100 years old and has A LOT of character. Including its pinkness! Sean is overjoyed to be living in a pink house with soon to be 4 girls.

I had some adorable pics of Lily's Valentine party at school. Her hair was done to look like two hearts and there was the sweetest one of her in her red dress admiring her valentines. There were also pics of the window she broke (no fault of her own) and almost fell through in our new house that were deleted.

Here is a retake after the window was repaired. We are SO grateful only her hands were cut up and that my friends, Sarah and Steph, were there to pull her back inside!

Alright, that is all for now. On to March.

December 2010

Get ready for a picture overload from December...

We attended my former aquarium shifts annual Christmas party. It was so fun to see all of them again.

 The local Christmas light parade.

Snow in the Park. This is such a fun day in our little town. A snow maker dumps a mound of foreign white stuff and everybody gets to play in it. Lily sledding on her boogie board.

Daisy, not so sure what to do with it.

 There is also a petting zoo, jump houses, horse-drawn carriage rides, and of course,

Santa! Daisy wanted nothing to do with him but Lily's request was a remote controlled Tarantula.

The 3rd movie in the Twilight saga came out on DVD, so of course I had an Eclipse party with friends Brooke, Steph, and Calli

Lily's "Not So Silent Night" Christmas program. The kindergarteners sang 2 songs and were so cute!

Since we were going to NM for Christmas we had our own Conroy Christmas a few days early.  Sean and the girls slept by the tree. Me and my pregnant self stuck to the bed (I love Daisy's 'pretending to be asleep' face).

Early Conroy Christmas aftermath. Pappas and Panda did it again!

New Mexico

Christmas Eve. The tradition of slicing the french cake. Whoever finds the charm is the king/queen of Christmas.

Sweet Daisy (my 6 month baby belly in the background).

 Dancing and singing Christmas carols.

Christmas morning. Cousins Lily and Emmy

Lily and Daisy

Poor Daisy was so feverish on Christmas Day.

My sisters and I at Uncle Vance and Aunt Cheryl's Christmas Dinner.

With our Little Bro Seth.

My cute cousins Harmony and Megan with their also cute hubby's Rory and Johnny.

Mom and dad with cousins Cody and Summer.

Cousins and 2nd cousins were everywhere.

Chloe, Emmy and Lily. Ready to ride in the back of the truck to Meme's house for the grand opening of presents.

One of the few shots of Daisy actually smiling. Uncle Seth let her help drive.

 A shot of one of the rooms in Meme and Papa's house. I am still in awe they pull it off for ALL of their kids, grandkids, and great grandkids! Amazing!

 

The Conroy's loot.

Cousins (and Aunt Vicki in the middle). Poor Daisy was so sick.

 Sean, my bro, and bro-in-laws, going to play some Christmas B-ball in their new sweater vests. Thanks Meme.

My whole familia.

Mom and dad with their grandkids.

Silly face shot.

We love our little brother.

My niece Chloe was baptized the day after Christmas. It was so special for all of us to be there! This is most of my dad's side of the family.

The boys gearing up for a quail hunt.

My mom always has books for the kids. She loves reading to them.

Christmas 2010 in New Mexico flew by way too fast. We made it back to Cali and immediately had friends come and visit us.

Here is Sean and Bert on the 9th hole at Pebble Beach. Bert and his fam drove out from Utah.

They golfed Pacific Grove and Poppy Hills while Jenny and I hung out with all the kiddos. You guys still owe us big time! :)

Finally, finishing up the month of December was a small New Year's celebration with our friends the Leach family and their grandkids.

We danced,

Made banana splits,

and went to bed at 10 o'clock!

HAPPY 2011!
