Christmas!!

We had a great Christmas with the kids. Here is little Ava on her 1st Christmas!

All the kiddos on Christmas Eve at Grandma and Grandpas...

Cousin Pictures

Some photos at Fashion Island with our cousins the week before Christmas.

Ava's first cereal :)

Ava had cereal for the first time this week. She wasn't thrilled, but did eat some. I'm sure her big brother will be helping feed her very soon!

We went to the Newport Beach Boat parade this week. Both the kids really enjoyed all the beautiful Christmas lights.



I just love pictures of my two little ones giving each other love. There is nothing like it!!
