I think Brody is digging the cake.

Brody's 1st pinata. He's with Uncle Mando.

Brody will be one on May 26th but we celebrated his birthday a little bit early when we were visiting family in SoCal. Nana and Grandpa Manny wanted to throw a big bash for their grandson and they accomplished that. There were about 70 people and everyone had a great time.

HAPPY EASTER

Brody is with cousin Analissa

Sophia and Emma are waiting for the green light to go egg hunting.

Grandpa is helping Sophia out. He' a good coach.

What a happy Nana...of course, she's holding Mr Brody.

Of course, we arrive and it starts raining in SoCal. It was raining pretty bad on Easter morning and I know my mom was really upset because what fun is it at the park when it's raining. Well, thank God because the ran stopped at 1pm and everyone showed up for the festivities.

DECORATING EASTER EGGS & OUR EASTER BASKET

This is Brody's 1st Easter so he's not sure what to do with the basket.

Decorating the eggs with cousin Chloe.

It's a tradition that we celebrate Easter with my LA family. We had a big egg decorating party at my Grandpa and Nana's house. All my cousins came to help decorate the eggs. After they left my Nana gave us our Easter basket. My basket was filled with yummy candy and fun toys.

MY SPECIAL DAY AT PRESCHOOL

My special crown that I get to wear all day.
The teacher tells a story about my family.

I get to sit in the special birthday chair and everyone sings to me.

I made these cupcakes with my mommy and daddy

My preschool celebrates birthdays and makes it a special day for that student. Since my birthday is June 12th and my preschool will be on summer vacation, I celebrated my special day early. I helped baked cupcake with mommy so I could bring them in for my friends. Also, I get to wear a special crown, sit on the birthday chair, my teacher talks about my family and then I get a special song sang to me and I get to dance. I felt so special.....I just can't wait for my real birthday.

SEATTLE CHILDRENS MUSUEM

I had a little fun with my friends at the Children's Museum in Seattle. My friends Evan, Ella and Georgia came along. My favorite thing to do was paint. I love drawing and painting.

RIDING BIKES AT GREENLAKE, WA

Well, I've turned in my tricycle for a big bike with training wheels. I feel like I'm becoming a big girl now. It was a pretty spring day so we thought it would be fun to go walking and bike riding in Greenlake, WA. My parents can't believe that I did the whole loop which is 3 miles.

BRODY'S 1ST HAIRCUT

Daddy got tired of seeing Brody's hair long so he took the initiative and gave Brody a buzz cut. Mommy had no idea and when she walked into the bathroom she was surprised to see Brody on the counter getting a haircut. We love Brody's new haircut.
