Happy Birthday to Me!

I had a great birthday. I went out to Chili's with 4 great friends, (thanks Dana, Andrea, Kami & Joni!) then when I came home Eric & the kids had a little family birthday party for me. I feel loved today. :)
My dumb camera wasn't working so we used Dana's camera phone for this pic...My little party at home...
The kids made me two "crowns." :) My favorite gift! :) Andi wrapped Kaleb.From my friend Dee... She ALWAYS sends me gifts in the mail and one of them is ALWAYS a Christmas ornament and some Angels stuff. :) I LOVE them! Thanks Dee!Even the baby made me a card...

Baby bathing suit beauty!

How cute is she????????!!!!!!!!!! :)

Today the baby went in the pool for the FIRST time! :)

She LOVED the water and would kick her feet and spash the water with her hands. :) I LOVE living in a place where we can have a great pool but not have to worry about it being in our back yard. :) lol Our friend Mr. Nick was at the pool so he was nice enough to help us with a family shot. Thanks Mr. Nick!

Yes, I am one of those moms... I think EVERYTHING that Kaleb does is cute!

Notice the peanut butter on the side of his face... LOLLater that night, he decided to give Sissy a message with a rolling pin... :) haha

Cute outfit

I just love the baby in these summer pants and had to share... :)

Ready for the big 9!

In a little over a week (August 17th) Miguel will have his 9th birthday and this year he is getting a big party. (on the 15th) Still cheap, but with lots of kids. lol He has not had a big party since we got him when he was 5 years old so it's time. We decided to make good use of the park/splash pad just doors down from us and have his party there. No need for games & such since the kids will have plenty to do with the slash pad & playground alone. Last Sunday we drove around and let Miguel deliver his invitations after church. :)

Baby's first time in the splash pad!

Below: This bathing suit used to be my niece Elena's and it's a size 12 months! :) Doesn't she look cute~! We also put a little bathing suit cover on her. I could just eat her up!

I LOVE those chubby leg rolls! :) (Just not on me...) lol

Below: tired out from playing at the splash pad...

I have a new niece...

Cheyenne Nicole Lander came in to the world last Tuesday, weighing in at 7 pounds 15 ounces and measuring 20 3/4 long. Pops & Nana are thrilled to have a new grand baby join the Lander family. :) Isn't she cute? :)

Congrats Che'ree & Mitchell!

Six years ago today...

Eric asked me to marry him during the fireworks show after an Angels game. That was the best night of my life. Better than my wedding day. :)
