The other day I came accross this woman’s blog.
She started talking about Muffin Tin Mondays. It is a fun way to present breakfast, lunch, or dinner to your child. I thought it was such a fun idea that I decided I want to do it too!
So here is our first Muffin Tin Monday Meal 🙂
Jillian got chicken, fried zucchini, cheese, watermellon, grapes, and broccoli.
My aunt received an edible arrangement the other day. She was on her way over to our house when the doorbell rang. She was shocked because in her hand was a magazine page showing how to make your own edible arrangements. Crazy how the world works.
So she hired me to make 4 edible arrangements for my cousin’s birthday party. My mom and I worked all morning on these beautiful creations! We had some issues with one of the arrangements. It kept falling over, my mom came ups with a great solution. We decorated the platter with support fruit and greenery.
Overall they were a big success! They turned out fantastic but I don’t think I’ll ever do it for one of my own parties. If you want to pay me I’ll do it for yours. It was just way too much work to be done for free. Now I understand why the edible arrangement company charges so much for their baskets!!
Happy 4th of July everyone!! We had a nice relaxing day today. We went to Capo Beach to watch the fireworks. Jillian was excited about the fireworks that people were setting off on their own. Unfortuantly once the real show began she was not happy. I think the loud noises were just too much for her. Olivia slept through of course haha. We ended up leaving early since Jillian was not happy. It worked out okay because we were able to see the fireworks from the car with muted sounds. We also beat the crowds returning home, YAY!
We hope you had a fun and safe Independence Day!!
Dear Friends,
I’ve been having issues with my blog these past couple of days. Necessary updates caused me a major headache. Things were lost, changed and just completely mixed up. I’m going to have to redesign everything. Luckily Adrian is getting really good at WordPress themes YAY! Hopefully it will look much better soon 🙂
Lots of Love,
Sarah
What a cutie! She is starting to like taking baths now 🙂
So I have yet to redo my header since the arrival of Oliva. I feel bad every time I see it! At least she’s too young to be saddened by it haha. My goal it to have it done by the end of Summer. I start the Master’s program in the Fall and I probably will not have much free time between that and two babies.
My sister in law graduated High School this Wednesday! We’re so proud of her and are excited about her heading off to college in the fall! YAY! The ceremony was nice… hot as usual. It never fails, June gloom hits like crazy around the beach, but every graduation I’ve been to has been the hottest day in June. Adrian and I were late getting the the school (of Course) so we didn’t have a seat. It turned out to be in our favor though. We sat along the wall below the bleachers. We were in the shade teh whole ceremony. When it came time to flood the field we were right by the opening. We found Bre right away … well I did anyways haha I turned around and in an instant Adrian and I were separated. Thank goodness for cell phones! We invited the family back to our place for a celebratory dinner. My mom is the best and made pasta for everyone and I made a graduation cap cake for Bre.
Today was Adrian’s 3rd Father’s Day. Lucklily nothing Baby related happened today, haha. On his first father’s day we brought Jillian home from the hospital. On his second father’s day we found out about Olivia.
We started the day off in a great way! We had Crepes in San Clemente with our friends Mike and Jill. We then hung out at the beach. Mike helped Adrian surf. He even caught a wave! He was super stoked about this! He wants to go to Costco and buy a board. I guess we’ll have to put it into our budget in the near future. Jill stayed on the sand with me and the girls. She was such a big help with Jillian and I am so thankful that she was there!
After the beach we headed home and had a BBQ at my aunt’s house. I was nice spending time with my Dad and the rest of the family. MMMmmm we had some yummy food but the best part was both Jillian and Olivia were sleeping. It was the best being able to eat in peace! Our original plan was to go to Javier’s but we decided to take advantage of sleeping babies. We’ll hopefully plan a date night soon and have a nice meal there.
After Jillian woke up and ate dinner she just had to go in the water and since it was father’s day, I was nice to Adrian and took water duties, thankfully the jacuzzi was heated! After a nice bath we went to visit Adrian’s dad. Jillian had the time of her life playing with this toy hamster that was motorized. I love her little laugh!
No pictures from today sorry! My camera was left in my car at every event. oops!
Jillian turned two! I can’t believe it’s been two years. Time flys by so fast when you’re watching your children grow. To celebrte Jillian we threw a bubble party. There ws a bubble mchine, bubble wnds – large nd smll, and lots of fun! Jillin had a few friends but the guest list was mostly adults, but I think they enjoyed the bubbles more than the kids. Our friend Chris and his Fiance Lisa got us a giant bubble maker. We’ve been having so much fun with it! I think we go outside everyday now and make a giant bubble
