Surprise!

This post was supposed to be posted exactly one week ago. It was going to be my 39 week pregnancy post. My final pregnancy picture. A picture to show how physically ready I was to have this baby. A picture to show that I was almost near the end and how I can mentally make it.

But this surprise pregnancy came with yet a lot more surprises!

American girl revisited!

The American Girl store has captured the hearts of my girls! Just like her older sister, Natalie wanted to celebrate her 5th birthday by getting her very own American girl. Her birthday isn't until August but we scheduled a Saturday to celebrate early because of the baby's due date being just days before her real birthday.

In true Natalie style, she had picked her doll ahead of time from a magazine but as soon as we walked in she completely changed her mind and chose the first girl she saw. At least she is happy with it! 

Meet Chloe, everyone!

{Natalie made sure I didn't forget to take her picture on the star!}

Happy Birthday, Natalie! My soon to be 5 year old! MUAH!

4th of July: Newport Beach 2014

With this year being so uncomfortably 9 months pregnant I did not pull out my camera as much as I would have liked. But the best thing about the iphone is that I can still capture all the little fun moments we had this year at the beach house just fine. So I'll let the pictures do the talking this year!...

As I say every year, until next year!!!
