Rolling!

Noah rolled over from his back to his front today. He just gets over to his tummy and then grunts because he doesn't know what to do then. He is growing so fast. Just yesterday we discovered that his bottom 2 teeth had come in and now he's rolling over. Wow.

Mexico...

We went to Mexico today with Clarisa. It was her first time at the house. We had such a nice and relaxing day. Carol, Chris and Harry came along too. We hadn't seen each other in such a long time that it was nice to catch up. We discovered that Noah's bottom 2 middle teeth had erupted! No wonder he had been so crabby lately! Ben and Hannah had tons of fun playing with Marissa on the beach. It was so chilly and windy but they didn't care and had their pants off to play. They got all wet and sandy! They were busy with building a sand castle with a moat around it, sprinkling sand into the waves, running into and then away from the waves, and climbing on the rocks. Then they went and drank hot chocolate with Marissa while they watched some TV.

Snow in Julian..

It snowed a lot in the past couple of days and so much last night that we decided to go sledding in Julian this morning. We are so lucky that we didn't get caught in all the traffic that started as we were leaving. It looked like hours of waiting as we were leaving. So there were a lot of people doing the same thing we were but we got an early start! Sledding was so much fun but it didn't last long because the kids were tired. They made a little snowman with the sand toys that we brought and Bens favorite thing to do was eat the snow! He even brought a snowball back and put it in the freezer for later (just like what the kids in a storybook we have, did).

Babysitting...

Today we babysat for Heather (my sister) while she took a midterm exam. I had 4 children under the age of 4 years old for 3 hours! But...Ryan slept the entire time he was here! He woke up about 20 minutes before Heather got here. I thought I'd be crazy but it worked out in the end! What a nice little boy to sleep for his auntie!

Felicita Park...

We went up to Felicita Park today and went on a short hike together. It was such a beautiful walk. Ben and Hannah found a boulder and played "king of the mountain" for a couple minutes. We passed a wedding in the trees and found a playground for the kids to play at in the middle of the hike! They loved it. Noah just stayed in his carrier as content as can be.
