Throughout the month we've put finishing touches on the front yard including final mulch and landscape lighting. Enjoyed more of the garden veggies including our first experience with pulling carrots. We have had visits, from Uncle Joe and Dana, and a play date with the Geithmans. Our outings included a first trip to the OC zoo, a perfect day at the beach with the Harpers, family trip to the Livingston Park followed by a dinner out at Naples Rib Shack....mmmm..., and some library story times. Good times were had with many visits with the Snow's including play dates with Haiden. We got to sneak in a last visit with the whole local Chavez family for Memorial Day before the arrival of Dylan Jacob Chavez on June 8th! JoJo and David still came to represent the Chavez Family on June 10th for Kaylee's big 2nd Birthday Party brunch. The best thing about having these parties is the reminder of how lucky we are to have such amazing friends that surround our family. Of course watching the girls run and enjoy the party is pretty awesome as well!
For Kaylee's Birthday dinner we had a first time at Joe's Crab Shack where we almost saw Kaylee sing Happy Birthday to the whole restaurant, but decided that was a little much and they all sang to her instead! The love and appreciation of Daddy was celebrated on Father's day with all of us spending time together which is how we wish every day could be. The whole family washed Daddy's truck and he finally got Chicken Fried Steak and Eggs followed by ribs for dinner and bottling/kegging our Trappist Ale.
Cienna had glowing reports for her last day of preschool and can't wait till next year. She also was super excited for her dentist appointment and was a great patient! She has improved her monkey bar skills and tried out skates for her first time.
So, our baby is 2! There are no words to go with the number of emotions and amazement's that brings!.... sigh...... (sorry not good with words)... Kaylee now rides a scooter that is too big for her and does many other things that are too big for her but has a great role model in Cienna to follow. She picked an ABC cake for her birthday and will pretty much do a seat drop on any surface when she feels the desire.
Cienna has done a great job showing Kaylee her love of books and ummm her love of dressing up! I think even Porter has had a tutu on at one point. Speaking of Porter also had a Birthday and is now 1 year old. He has truly impressed us with his personality and obedience while we have worked on the front yard. We don't have to worry about closing doors or gates and he can enjoy being out there with us while staying on the porch or nearby!
Hear are some pictures to bring the words to life.
