Daddy’s Birthday

To celebrate Juan’s birthday we started the morning off with protein pancakes (shocker!)…..and they were yummy!

Layla decided Daddy reeeeally wanted to go to the zoo for his birthday. We usually go to the zoo during the week and I could not believe how crowded it was on a Saturday. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed the beautiful weather.


Tatum lasted about 3 minutes in the stroller (another shocker!) so Juan strapped on the Baby Bjorn. Tatum was the happiest baby ever after that. Everyone passing by her had to comment on her thighs, cheeks, etc.

She was really so happy even though it doesn’t seem to show in any of the pictures I took.

Juan had never been in to pet the stingray’s before so he and Layla had fun doing that.

I made Juan’s favorite caramel cake. It turned out to be the best one I have made yet. And not just because Tatum’s allergies have seemed to clear up and I can eat whatever I want again. Even Juan said it was one of the best!

Happy birthday to our funny, loving, and very handsome (Layla tells him how handsome he is all time) daddy. We love you so much!


We always celebrate Kaleb’s birthday around the same time as Juan’s since we don’t know his exact birthday and know it must have been sometime in January. I cannot believe this old guy is 7 already. He has started to turn really gray. He still has quite a bit of spunk when we let him run around off leash. We sure love this dog!

Layla's First Dentist Appointment

I had needed to schedule Layla a dentist appointment for the longest time and she kept reminding me that she needed to go. She was so excited when I finally scheduled the appointment. I wasn't too emotional on her first day of preschool but there was something about watching my sweet girl looking so big and brave at the dentist. I fought back tears the whole time we were there.
She was such a good girl and even let them take x-rays of her teeth!

The dentist was so funny and was cracking her up the whole time. She left with a mouth full of clean healthy teeth and a super cool new spin brush toothbrush.

Tatum's baby

She seems to really love baby dolls already!




Tatum totally looks like a cabbage patch doll!!

Birthday Party Saturday

We started out Saturday morning with a fun pajama princess breakfast birthday party for Mckinley. I can’t believe she is 2! She is so darn cute and was wearing the most awesome cowboy boots. Joyce says she wears them constantly. Can’t believe I didn’t get a picture of those!
