great pics.

For those of you who do not know, my stepfathers dad is a photographer. He gets the most amazing shots of Darren (and all of us too). Thank you so much Manny for always having your camera handy! I love this series of Darren at the baptism!

Way too tired to blog tonight....sorry.Here are just a couple of the pics from the baptism, there are many more to come. I just wanted to get a little something up for those of you that were unable to make it, especially Julie.

Happy first Father's Day Tim!

Darren took Tim to the Giants game today and of course they brought home the win.

Happy first Father's Day Tim. You are such an amazing and loving Father and Husband, hope you enjoyed your day. We love you!

Arizona trip

We had such a great time in Arizona, I'm so glad I made the trip. The heat was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be, me and D both did really well with it.
Carly made the trip so much easier for us by letting us use her car seat so I didn't have to lug mine around the airport. She also brought out at tons of little guy toys to keep Dare entertained. Thanks so much Car!

Ava's birthday party was so fun, she is such a good little girl. The house was decorated with Sponge Bob decorations and she would point to them and say "Bob?", it was adorable! She got tons of toys and seemed to love every moment of her party.
I wish they lived closer =( It was a short trip but so worth it for me to get to catch up with Carly and let our babies play together.








stealing Darren's toy and watching me at the same time!

First airplane ride

Darren did so well on the flight! He slept the entire way there and most of the flight home.





sleeping soundly

DeAnna came down to Fremont yesterday to visit with Julie and the girls and was kind enough to take pictures of all the kids. They turned out amazing as usual. Thank you so much DeAnna!

Autie Julie, Lily and Emma are here!!!!

Auntie Julie, Lil and Emma are here to visit! Expect lots more pictures!

Pictures of the week

This week Darren had his four month well baby check and weighed in at almost 15 pounds! While we were with the doctor Darren decided to show off and roll over. He did this 30 seconds after I told the doctor that he only rolled over for one day a couple weeks ago. Tim got to see Darren roll over for the first time today too, so I think this is finally going to be a habit. This week Darren has also found his loud voice. He has been squealing and almost yelling at us thinking the whole thing is hilarious, I'll try to post one of the videos soon, its really cute.

This time next week me and Darren will be in Arizona for my friend Carly's daughter's first Birthday. I'm a little nervous about traveling alone with him. Think good thoughts about our flying experience, I think he'll do well though since he loves to be held!

4 months old

Our baby is four months old! He is cuter than ever these days, he has started to make laughing like sounds and squeals when he is really excited. He holds his head up really really well now and is even enjoying tummy time more. He still has not rolled over again since I posted the video, that's what I get for making him do it 30 times that day!
Sleeping seems to be getting better, I think we might actually be over the hard part, I don't want to elaborate too much because I don't want to jinx anything =)
We love him so much, he brings such joy to our lives.
