Life According to Instagram: September

Since I have become an avid Instagramer and I usual post my favorite pictures or moments on there I decided to start a "Life According to Instagram" every month.  I love instagram for the simple fact that I can use it to capture the  little moments of every day life.  They are the things that are so easy to forget yet often mean the most. The kids are truly growing up before my eyes and I don't want to miss a thing.  So here is the grand debut! Enjoy!

1. This is Love. Best big brother ever.
2. This little girl was made for gymnastics
3. 90 degrees calls for a pool day.  So long sweet summer.
4.  Sunday fun with daddy.
5. Arrrgh!! We got us some pirate booty today in the form of 2 dozen doughnuts.
6. The cutest pirates you ever did see!
7. Her first blowout.
8. Their toy choices for the day.  Nature vs. Nurture?
9. Riley is getting so strong!  Love family tummy time.
10. Is it just me or is this little boy VERY good at coloring within the lines?  He's already better than me.  Best coloring book ever and only cost me 50 cents!
11. The countdown has officially begun!
12. Afternoon naps in the car while daddy runs errands. 
13. How to entertain you children for 2 hours when you feel like crap.
14. Did you know this kid can be Captain Hook & Peter Pan at the same time?  He even reenacts the entire story word for word.
15. Em has really been into drawing and writing lately.  Here is her interpretation of our family.
16. First trip to target alone with 3.  Remembered everything I came fore, got lots of sales, remembered to pay for everything hiding under Riley, remembered my pin, left with one kid asleep, one crying, and one happy and obedient; I even put the cart away... I'd call that a success!!

1.  All my babies at 2 months old.
2. Getting out some wiggles on the trampoline before bedtime
3. A much needed date night with the hubs & first time leaving Riley.
4. Guess who slept from 9:00 pm to 7:00 am last night.  That is 10 hrs people!  It is going to be a great day!
5. Watching my parents be grandparents is one of my favorite things.
6. This little miss is too hot to be swaddled and too wiggly to stay asleep, yet too tired to keep her eyes open for more than a minute.
7. Backyard camping with my favorite peeps.  Love Em's marshmallow and chocolate sandwich.
8. When me and my mom found these matching dresses we could not pass them up!  I guess I'm officially that kind of mom.
9. Holidays are much more fun with kids!  We were so excited for Halloween we decorated a little bit early this year. 
10. Broken flip flop while on a walk, milk leaking on shirt, two crying kids and what did I do?  Laugh!  And then take them to the park.
11. Morning walks with 3 kids in one stroller.  At least they love each other!
12. I love that she can already put herself to sleep even amidst the chaos.  Best baby ever.  She is a Score alright.
13. P had his first day of soccer.  He loved it!
14. Tagged grandma's house for her birthday.
15. The kids started gymnastics and I am seriously way too excited about it.  Our favorite day of the week!
16. After a rough morning with all 3 kids I am laying down next to this sweet girl and cherishing every minute.

Have you noticed?

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

Em's Blessing

Emily's Blessing day was so great! Since we were moving home so soon after she was born, we decided to just wait until we got out here to CA so our family could be there for it. It was pretty low key compared to P's (and by that I mean less family there) but was still just as wonderful. Jeff gave a beautiful blessing. It was also special because she wore the dress I was sealed to my parents in. Jeff wasn't a fan of how long it was for such a small baby, but it was so neat for her to wear something that is so special in my family. The P-man looked like a little stud in his outfit too! I wish I would have gotten some of the two of them together, o-well. It was a fabulous day! Thanks so much for all the family and friends that were there, it meant so much to have you there and we missed those who couldn't come! Isn't she so perfect! I love this picture of her laying on the grass. She is so pure and clean and perfect ! I love her!

Disneyland

A little late but . . . We Went To Disneyland! So you may or may not know that we went to Disneyland back in July. It was so much fun! As we were planning the trip I was really worried about how it would be taking 2 babies there, in my mind they were way too young to do anything there but boy was I wrong! All of us had a great time and we all went on tons of rides, even Emily! Here is a list of all the rides we went on: (The bold ones were P's very favorites) Disneyland Railroad Train Enchanted Tiki Room The Jungle Cruise Tarzan's Tree House Pirates of the Caribbean Haunted Mansion Winnie the Pooh It's a Small World Story Book Land canal boats King Aurthur's Carousel Dumbo Mad Tea Party Tea Cups Peter Pan Mr. Toad's Wild Ride Pinocchio Finding Nemo Submarine Autopia (Cars) Did you know babies could do this much! I sure didn't! I even nursed during 4 of the above mentioned rides which was so nice and saved tons of time! They both did so well on all of the...
