We did a photo shoot on the beach. Caitlin took great pictures of the kids.

Christmas pics...Kendall had the cutest dress EVER!

Did I mention that the baby is always hungry?

Poor Sake...Kendall tries to eat him, Brady gives him

"check-ups".

Kendall's first time eating solid food. She loved the rice

cereal and wanted more. She is weighing in at almost 16lbs!

Brady only weighs 28lbs!

So much stuff!!!! We are still trying to figure out where to

put it all.

Christmas was crazy! The kids got SO much stuff! Kendall

was rockin' the reindeer hat. She had fun watching Brady open

all of the presents.

Baby sister with Aunt Mo.

Baby sister hanging out with Brad and Tori.

Do we have another officer in the family? Brady got this cool

toy that sends you on police calls. So fun!

Brady and Blake had a great time getting into the cup

and bottle drawers. they made a huge cup tower.

I celebrated(?) my last day of maternity leave in style by

going to breakfast at the Montage with Marie.

It's been a while, so try and stay with me. Brady and Natalie went on a date to their first movie (Bolt). We ended us walking out of the movie after 30 minutes because it was a little scary and the kids had pretty much crawled into our laps to hide. After we left they had fun dancing around and playing. Brady was a very active participant when it came to picking out the Christmas tree. He wanted Brett to open every single tree (OK maybe that was me...).

One of the funniest stories of the past few weeks was told to us by Brady's teacher. He went up to her at recess and said "You wanna go get some wine?" She then asked "Who drinks wine?" Brady replied, "Me.......and Grammy." The teacher luckily has a good sense of humor and didn't report us to CPS. We all had a good laugh.

Brady is constantly cracking us up with his stories and one-liners.

Update

It's been awhile and due to popular demand I am updating the blog. Brady's face met the stairs of the slide and he ended up with one heck of a black eye.

We attended the Pink Pirate Pizza Party for Isabella and even Kendall got in the spirit and dressed like a pirate.

Heather brought the triplets to see us and Kendall and the girls just happened to be wearing the same outfits. It was a cute coincidence.

We went to Sea World and the Chargers game all in one day and Brady was out for the count. He LOVED watching the cheerleaders :).

We found the cutest doll that looks just like Kendall. She loves playing with her baby.

We visited Jason and Howie. Brady had so much fun playing with the guys. Kendall ate up all of the attention.

Kendall had a rough day of me trying hats on her. I am recently obsessed with accessories for her.

Just a pic of one of her cute outfits.

Another cute outfit - thanks Martinez family!

Yet another hair accessory.

Go USC!

Kendall and her future love Chase.

Halloween

We had a FUN Halloween. The neighborhood had a party and all of the kids had a great time. Brady was a "T-Rex" dinosaur and Kendall was a princess ballerina.

Lots going on this past week. Brady had his first day at his new school and he LOVED it. Not one tear. They have a train table and water toys so the kid was in preschool heaven =). We are still watching the cheerleaders more than I would care to admit, I am still hoping that it's just a phase.

Kendall is cooing and smiling a lot now - she'll carry on a "conversation" with you now. She is quite the fashionista - our neighbor made her a really cute outfit and we found that Kendall's waist size is the same as the two-year-old's next door! She is starting to sit up in the Bumbo seat and enjoys facing out in the sling so she can see the world. Grammy tried to give her a bottle and Kendall reacted as if Grammy was trying to poison her - that is something we will be working on for the next few weeks prior to my return to work.

We went to Santa Barbara with the kids for a romantic (ha!) anniversary weekend. Brady loved the hotel room and wasn't really impressed with the beach, the pier or anything else - he just wanted to hang out in "his room'. It was hysterical how he investigated every nook and cranny in the room.

We went to the zoo, of course, and this gorilla came right up to the window and did not take his (her?) eyes off of Brady - I think that in his yellow shirt the gorilla thought that Brady looked like a tasty little banana. It was a little scary, and made me wonder how thick the glass was separating us and the gorilla. Do I have an unnatural fear of gorillas? Possibly. I felt much more comfortable with the fake gorilla "goosing" him =).

In keeping with the nature theme we seem to have going, I wanted to show the giraffe that has the most awesome view in California.

Sports class is now over, sadly I will need to find another way to wear him out before nap every Wednesday. Brady received an award that he is proudly displaying on his bulletin board.
