Boats…

I felt bad because Jack and I are at the pool for a long time, but Aya and Stacy go back early for a nap or because we don’t want Stacy to be in the sun that long, so in the afternoon I set up Jacks old boat play toy:

Of course, Jack wanted to play as well so he had to get out there to ‘show’ Stacy how to do it correctly.

I dunno if it made a difference not being at the pool because Stacy learned she could just dump the water on herself and ended up being soaked!

Pool Time…

Luckily the weekends have been nice and warm so we are taking advantage of it by going to the pool.  Stacy loves going to the pool:

Jack doesn’t mind the company because it just gives him more people to splash!!

15 month checkup…

Stacy has her 15 month checkup last month and everything was a-ok.  Actually, Aya and I had a little bet going because Stacy eats so much that we thought the doctor was going to tell us she was a little fattie.  We were betting on how much weight Stacy has gained in the past 3 months.

Her was Stacy’s percentile’s….60% and 15%.

Yup, we totally thought it would be 60% weight and 15% height…instead she is ONLY in the 15%-tile for weight and 60%-tile in height!   No way!!!

I thought my mom didn’t write the vitals down correctly, until I realized it was the doctor’s check-up sheet…so it couldn’t be wrong.  Who knew?  Our little fattie isn’t really a fattie but her big gut just hangs over her pants!!   We are just glad she is happy and healthy!!

Easter–School…

Sometimes I really dislike Jack’s school.  There was an Easter egg hunt scheduled for 10:00 in the morning and Aya had the day off and I left work for an early lunch to watch the Easter Egg hunt at school.  We got there early because we didn’t want to miss it but the school decided that the parking lot was so crowded and people were waiting so they started it early.  It ended just as we got there….boo.

Jack was just as happy to eat his Easter snacks and us keeping him company:

Farmer’s Market…

The weather was so nice on Saturday that Jack, Stacy and I headed out to the Farmers Market in Playa Vista:

The kids were gobbling up all the fresh fruit at the Farmer’s Market, that it ended up being cheaper riding the train:

Good thing I snapped this picture when I did because right after this the train conductor put a sticker on Stacy’s shirt and she freaked out and cried 1/2 the train ride!   Stranger-Danger!!  hahahaha!

Stacy and Aya…

The past few months Aya was spending a lot of time either at the hospital or at Brea visiting her mom.   That usually meant it was just me and the kids but things are settling back down and Aya was home an entire Saturday with the kids and Stacy loved having her mom around!!    Normally, Stacy is happy to be hanging out watching tv with dad but this day was all about being with mom…I couldn’t even carry Stacy today!
