Happy Halloween!

2009-12-12T13:12:00.000-08:00

Cailin really enjoyed trick or treating this year! She was very brave and went up to each door and said "trick or treat" and sometimes added "smell my feet" and "I like candy!". She was the sweatest little minnie mouse. Grammy made her the perfect costume and she still asks if she can wear her costume at least once a week.

Cailin has lunch with the Disney Princesses

2009-12-12T12:53:00.001-08:00

To top off all of the Birthday celebrations Grandma Bev took Cailin and Mommy to have lunch with the Disney princesses at Ariel's Grotto at California Adventure. Cailin was so excited to see all the princesses. I could not get her to look at the camera for a picture because she was too busy staring at the beautiful princesses. We had the best time and the food was great. We are really looking forward to making this a birthday tradition!

Happy 2nd Birthday

2009-10-01T13:57:00.001-07:00

Cailin turned 2 on September 26th. We celebrated with a birthday party at Jump Zone. Cailin spent the afternoon playing on the slides with her friends. She is so tiny that she practically flew down them. She really enjoyed having everyone sing happy birthday to her and blowing out her candle. Thank you to all of you who shared this special day with our family. We love you all!

Fun with Brianna

2009-10-01T13:32:00.000-07:00

Cailin and Brianna have been enjoying each others company while exploring all sorts of new things. Brianna invited us to join her at the Highland Library for story time and Cailing got to check out snakes, spiders and lots of other creatures. We also made our way up to Oak Glen for some berry picking. There were no berries to pick but plenty of things to entertain the girls.

Movie in the park.

2009-09-02T13:35:00.000-07:00

Saturday evenings in Jody's association they have a movie in the park. There was face painting, jumpers and Kung Fu Panda played on a giant blow up screen. Cailin and Cambria snacked on snow cones and popcorn and were both very good little girls. Movie in the park was a big hit....too bad we have to wait until next summer to do it again : (

Tea Party!

2009-09-02T13:31:00.000-07:00

Enjoying a beautiful day in the backyard. Cailin loves tea parties and being outside so since the weather has been nice, we have been combining the two!

A day at the beach

2009-09-02T13:13:00.000-07:00

Cailin actually enjoyed this beach trip. In the past she would freak out anytime she touched the sand and would not go anywhere near the water. During this trip she played in the sand, made sand castles and spent a lot of time collecting rocks and jumping over the waves. We had a great and relaxing weekend! San Clemente is a beautiful place and we are very happy we got to spend time with our family!

Summer fun!

2009-06-18T22:00:00.000-07:00

Since today was the first decent day in weeks, weather wise, Cailin and I made our way into the backyard for some pool time. The water was nice and warm and we got to hang out in the backyard for a few hours.

Happy little girl in her new bathingsuit.

Cailin sitting in her tiny little pool.

We spent the day going back and forth from one pool to another.

Cailin decided that she should sit in the chair and Mommy should swim.

Our Big Disney Vacation

2009-06-18T12:33:00.000-07:00

We spent three days and two nights at Disneyland. Having a hotel to go to for naps for both Daddy and Cailin worked out perfect. Cailin loves Disneyland and was so excited to wake up there. By the end of our vacation we were all ready to come home.

This is what happens when Daddy is in charge of getting Cailin dressed!

2009-06-18T12:25:00.000-07:00

She looks like such a goof ball but had so much fun running around the house nakey. This is definitely one of those pictures that you show to her boyfriend when she is older.

Notice the slippers?? Daddy didn't want her to be cold : )

Happy Easter

2009-04-13T13:47:00.001-07:00

We hope that everyone had a great Easter. Cailin definitely did! We will all be working off all of the food and candy we ate for months. Cailin had lots of fun playing the drums, hunting for eggs and playing with all of her new goodies.

Cailin's first trip to Disneyland

2009-03-18T10:52:00.000-07:00

She had a good time. Unfortunatley she did not take a nap on the car ride there so she was pretty tired and fell asleep after two hours. Luckily we decided to get anual passes so she can enjoy many more trips this year.

Rub a dub dub, two babies in the tub

Poor Baby!

2009-03-18T10:46:00.000-07:00

Cailin fell off the chair in the living room with a pacifier in her mouth and split her lip open. It healed well. Hopefully she won't end up with a scar.

Ooopps!

2009-01-13T16:27:00.001-08:00

Mommy needs to say she is sorry to everyone. I have gotten a little behind on updating Cailin's blog. Sometimes a 1 year old keeps you a little too buisy. I promise to try harder in the new year. Happy 2009 everyone!

Merry Christmas!

2009-01-13T16:15:00.000-08:00

Merry Christmas to everyone. Cailin had a wonderful Christmas this year. She was so much fun to watch open her presents. She is having such a good time playing with all of her new toys! We woke up bright and early and got started on presents and cinnamon rolls. Chistmas eve was spent with the Allen family and Christmas day with the Brokaws.

SPAGHETTI!

My 1 year photo shoot

2009-01-13T15:58:00.001-08:00

Once again Cailin had her pictures taken by our friend and wonderful photographer Jennifer. She was a good little girl and smiled pretty for the camera. She tried her hardest to pop every balloon and eat every flower we attempted to make her pose with. She is her daddy's little girl!!!

Happy Halloween

2009-01-13T15:51:00.000-08:00

Cailin was the worlds cutest skeleton for Halloween this year. We went to her grandma and grandpa Brokaw's for a bonfire and Cailin went around and stole everyones bowls of candy!

Pumpkin Patch

2008-10-21T15:38:00.000-07:00

Cailin and the family went to the pumpkin patch over the weekend. Cailin loved all the pumpkins and all of the people. She wasn't too sure about the animals in the petting zoo. Especially when the baby goat tried to eat her shirt!

Cailin turns 1!

2008-10-09T14:38:00.000-07:00

On September 26, 2008 Cailin turned one year old. On Saturday September 27th we celebrated with our friends and family. Cailin had a great time playing with her friends, jumping in her bounce house, playing on the slip and slide....and she even ate cake. Here are some pictures of her big day.

Cailin's first blog

2008-09-10T10:08:00.000-07:00

As you all know Cailin will be turning 1 this month. I have tried my best, but have failed at keeping everyone updated with pictures and the goings on in Cailin's world. So I have decided to start a blog so that you can all check in and see how our little girl is doing.

New things Cailin is doing:

She is now standing and walking along/behind things. She has yet to take a step on her own. She is a stubborn little one.

Why we all look so tired:

Cailin is cutting at least 3 new teeth right now and I think that 2 more are trying to make there way in. Poor little girl can't sleep and she is taking us all down with her.
