Siena's 2nd Birthday celebrations

We had a fun weekend of celebrating Siena Rose and her 2nd birthday.  We went to SeaWorld and had a great time.  Braydon and Siena got to meet Ernie and the Cookie Monster which she was soooo excited about!  We saw dolphins, penguins and fed the seals fish.  

On Sunday night Grandpa came down and we went to Benihana to celebrate Siena's birthday again!  Braydon was in awe, the cook did Magic tricks for him :)  Siena loved it too, especially when she got to eat ice cream at the end.  

Siena Rose is 2 years old!

Our little firecracker is 2 years old already!  She is a bright light in our family and we love her so much.  She has a very BIG personality and we call her the Alpha.  She loves to sing and dance and puts on a show when there are people around.  She gives everyone big toothy grins and she loves to hug.  She loves Monty and her brother and is a major Daddy's girl.  She talks up a storm, using full sentences saying things like "I want my own goldfish bag" or "No Monty, My food!'.  I love when she yells "Hi Mommy" in her high pitched voice.  Every morning when Daddy goes to work she says "Daddy walk" which means she wants to walk him to his car.  Then she says "Hi five!" which means Daddy needs to drive out with his window down and give her a high five while Mommy holds her up to meet his hand. She's a stellar athlete already and loves to play soccer and throw the ball around and she' incredibly fast.    She loves Elmo, princesses and monkeys.  She insists on only wearing clothes that have any of these characters on them.  She also loves shoes and painting her nails.

We love her deeply and couldn't imagine life without her in it.  She is so sweet and fun.  Happy Birthday little Siena Rosey!!

Happy St. Patrick's Day 2014!

We had a great St. Patty's Day.  I made Corned Beef and Cabbage and we got a cake.  We wore silly hats and talked about rainbows and leprechauns.  When Daddy got home from work Braydon hit behind the table and jumped out yelling "Surprise!  Happy St. Patricks Day!"

Bray & Dad on a dirt bike

We went over to the Purcell's for a BBQ and they have a Dirt Bike track.  Braydon loved riding around with Daddy.

Surfer Daddy

Spring is here and in San Diego that means lots of beach time to watch Daddy surf!!  Siena loves to try and find Daddy in the water and will point and yell "Uh Oh, Daddy fell down in water!"  and when we walk close to the water says "Oh no!   Water Get Me!"

Lake Tahoe 2014

We spent a long weekend in Tahoe with a great group of friends and family.  The Morrisons with 18 month old Maverick and Liliana (age 5), The Rossittos with Bray's girlfriend Sophia (age 4), The Purcells with adorable little Morgan (age 3), Aunt Cristin and Aba Da (Uncle Cota).  And of course the Greene family came down for the weekend from Reno.  All the kids spent a day in snowboarding and ski school on Friday at Northstar and that was a blast!  Braydon snowboarded and LOVED it.  When school was done Daddy took him on a bunch of actual runs on the chairlift to teach him.  He did great!  

It was SnowFest in King's Beach so we got to watch the town parade.  The kids had so much fun!  Siena especially, she's a parade groupie, waving and clapping for everyone that walked by.  After we had lunch at Garwoods and skipped rocks on the beach.  Then we went sledding!  An action packed day!  Sunday we had lunch at the Bridgetender with the Greene's and then made pizzas at their house with the Purcells until we had to fly out.  It was the perfect weekend!

Braydon started Tball

Our little slugger started Tball with all his friends.  He loves it!  And Siena loves to watch.

Volcano Science Project

We made a volcano and added vinegar and soap and watched it explode!  So cool!!

Father/Son Kings Hockey Game

Craig and Bray went to the Hockey game with Bray's Godfather Chris and favorite buddy Connor!  They had a great time!  Braydon loves time with his Dad and friend ConMan.
