End of 2012

Ok...Need to get caught up. I know its been too long when I can't find my own blog and have to keep googling myself and my kids name to find my own blog and then forget the password. We closed out 2012 with Halloween, a trip to Park City for Thanksgiving and then home for Hanukkah and Christmas. I have been busy as ever with the kids. Both are in preschool at Miss Hiedi's, which is such a gem here in Laguna Beach. They both enjoy swimming lessons as well as ballet and Spanish for London. London and Henry are truly best friends. When we go to the park they prefer to play with each other over the other children. I guess they just spend so much time together. It really is cute to see them together. They can now have full conversations with each other and I try not to laugh as London tries to "mother" Henry or Henry tries to annoy London. They are getting so big every minute and I am having so much fun watching them grow.

London is in a little group called Indian Guides with Justin and here she is getting ready to do her first camp out.

Poor London is just getting ready to go into surgery to get her tonsils out. The surgery went well but it was a hard week for all.

Henry's first haircut by a professional. I still think I do a better job...lol

London started soccer this year. This is her getting her first trophy on her last game.

I took London to see her first play. "Pinkalicious the Musical". She had so much fun dressing up in all pink!

Londons dance recital and Christmas show

So cute I had to post London'd first dance recital. She didn't know much of the dance but looked really cute in her little red ballet outfit. She then had a little holiday show at her preschool where she sang such cute Christmas songs...one is German.

Her little nose red, singing Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer.

Christmas 2010

A few pics from our Christmas celebrations. London and Henry opened lots of presents, Henry mostly ate the wrapping paper and London opened everyone's gifts. We had family and friends over for a yummy Christmas dinner. London got a cool scooter from Baba, a cute doll cradle from Grandma Shelley and a dollhouse from Santa. They both got way too many gifts...but I will bring something new out every month so they won't get bored.

Thats as close as London would get to Santa

Lots of gifts for the kids...

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Well this year has gone by fast and I cannot believe it is going to be 2010. London turned one, we have a new baby on the way and we just moved. 2009 has been a great but busy year. We look foward to all the great things that will come in 2010 and are so thankful that our family is healthy.

This Christmas was really fun with London. She really enjoyed opening her gifts and having her mom and dad home to bake cookies and lounge around.

Check out London's pink cowboy boots that she got from Baba and Grandpa. She loves them and likes to walk around on the wood floors and hear them click.

We had Christmas dinner at our house. Justin was really proud of his pot roast that he cooked all day and I will have to say it was delicious! I made a yummy chocolate cake and pretty much ate the whole thing!

Hanukkah and holiday fun

London is such a lucky little girl as she gets to celebrate Hanukkah and Christmas, which to a 20 month old means lots of presents. Her Baba spolied her this year with so many gifts. We celebrated Hanukkah with the grandparents and the Halperns. The two little girls had a great time opening gifts and eating latkas.
