Baby Girl, Our Sarah!

Sarah keeps us on our toes. She is into lots of things with curiousity wanting to be like Coco, Mom or Dada. She just wants to be a big girl. She certainly is getting big and learning so much.
Some of Sarah's favorites things: Baby dolls. She even says "Baby" and loves carrying and pushing around her Baby dolls.
Sarah other favorite thing is her Big brother, she calls "Coco" or "Bubba." But she is always looking out and asking for her Bubba, notice they both have sippy cups. Sarah always asks for her juice and then one for Colton.
"CHEESE" She can be a ham, when she wants to but not too often on demand. Here she is being more daring than normal by standing on her car. She is becoming a climber.
Two Peas in a Pod or a Laundry basket which ever is available. But either way they sure do love one another and it is great to see that relationship grow.
If his little sister is not destroying whatever he is building with then he is smiling and ready to play with Sarah.
Children are such a joy and really do grow up so, so, so Fast! Blogging is a nice way to keep track of their lifes and share with family great moments, all in one quick task.

We LOVE soccer!!

Colton is our SOCCER ALL STAR
and he looks forward to every Saturday he has a soccer game.

For some reason he kicks better when he sticks out his tongue. I think it is a concentration technique. And it seems to help in scoring all those goals.

1...2...3... KICK!
And we never forget to stretch after the game with our friends.
We do not want to strain a muscle.

And Sarah is the purplest cheerleader always yelling "GO GO CO CO!!" Our family loves soccer and we are enjoying this season with the YMCA.

Another Weekend at the fields!

Colton's skills in soccer have really inmporved this year.
He hustles, dribbles even shoots and scores...GOOOOAALLLL!!

An Evening at the Park!

One really great thing about California is that there are parks everywhere. We have searched out some great parks. This is a no sand, no bark, in otherwords not too dirty of a park, that is made for smaller kids with great swings.
Sarah is never happy to leave and is thinking "Oh no Mom!"
Colton still loves the slides and this tunnel slide is lots of fun, however Sarah didn't share the same opinion. No matter how much Big brother encouraged her she would not adventure down.
PEEK-A-BOO!! I see you!
Never Fear our Superhero is here up high and ready to fly!
We always have FUN at the park and the kids would go everyday if they could. There are many other parks that we are regulars at especially the park just up the street from us. But it is not my absolute favorite because of the sand and the kids get so dirty.

There is Officially Peace in the House when they are all Sleeping!!

Colton is by far our best sleeper!! I only wish he would sleep later than 6:30am. If I am lucky he doesn't come into my room and wake me up until 7am. But he sleeps like a ROCK!
Sarah is another story when it comes to sleeping. She sleeps through the night Yes, but at any noise she will stir. We think it is because she does not want to miss out on something. However she is so sweet when she sleeps and quite too.
"Did I see you taking a picture of me MOM?!"
The other funny thing about Sarah is that she doesn't try to climb out of her crib but she loves sticking her feet between the bars. One night when I went to check on her, she had fallen asleep with both legs stuck between the bars. If she keeps this up we will have to put her in a bed way before I want to. I still can't figure out how she got into this position.
Lullaby, my Sweets!! Nighty-night and Goodnight!
