our LIFE is a SMILE

I just want to squeeze them all.
ALL they do is SMILE, well yes, there is always
an occasional fit and several “cry it outs” but all in all our LIFE is a SMILE.

I love the three of you more than you will ever know.
You are my three little walking miracles and you were worth
all of the wait and trials to get you here.

A smile costs nothing but gives much.  It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give.  It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever.  None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it.  Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away.  Some people are too tired to give you a smile.  Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

Grandma & Papa are COOL

Tonight we went over to Grandma  & Papas house for a last minute dinner.  The kids LOVE Grandma & Papas house. The kids think “Papa” is so cool, oh so many reasons… here are just a few… He is a Fire Captain (retired now), he surfs (who else can say that papa surfs), lives at the beach, has a million surf boards oh and paddles too, has a motorized bike with a surf rack, travels all over… oh boy… this list could go on and on. Kaidin wants to GROW up to be Papa, a full time Papa. If only he knew just how much he is loved by these 3 little people. OH and don’t forget Grandma, she spoils them and they know just how to get what they want from her!  It was a great night as always…

Game Boy! Holla'

Tonight was Kaidin's Little League game. I LOVE watching these boys aka “Orioles” run the field. They are so stinking cute. They are so serious and LOVE the game. We also have the Best Manager & Coaches and oh… did I mention the Team Moms. Just sayin! Kaidin had so much fun as he always does, this boy loves baseball. He got “Game Boy” tonight and when they get that they get the “game boy candy award”, hence BEST Team MOMS EVA! See you next game…

The Jones Annual Easter Bash

Our Easter day was perfect. Minus that we were unable to see both Grandma’s on this day but all in all it was perfect. Papa was there to represent Grandma Cheryl while she was visiting Aunt Diana and Grandma Stein had a great day at Aunt Mary’s (this made us feel a little better).  Did I mention Miya & Bode said Papa for the first time two days ago. SO CUTE… We headed over to The Jones for the annual Easter Bash and had a ton of fun as always.  
The guys got to watch some of the game...
This was before & after "Tylers Scheduled Easter Egg Hunt in the backyard"
 Here are the kids during the "backyard hill egg hunt"...  can you see em' can you see em'
 We had the annual Egg Hunt from the Easter Bunny...
 This was the cutest thing. Bode was so gentle and tried blowing it out but just kept spitting on her. It was so funny but cute at the same time!
 The Diva & Ranger Danger
 Our family of 5...
Now we all know it’s not a party until someone aka Kaidin aka Ranger Danger gets hurt. Earlier in the day he fell backwards onto a banister on the stairs while messing around with his cousin.  After Uncle Mike (our in-house personal Medic doctored his back scratch and the tears were cleared) he went in the backyard to play with some water guns. Well when I heard the big splash, without even looking I just knew it was him… shoes and all.
The Stein Family has entered the premises. 
 I hope that everyone had a blessed Easter...

Easter Morning... Did the Easter Bunny come by?

It’s EASTER… Kaidin got up at 6:30 am and ran down the hall to our bed. He didn’t want to go and see if the Easter Bunny had been here until we all went as a family (LOVE that). So we got Miya & Bode and all went to see if he had come to our house… YEP! He sure did. The kids were so happy and grateful for everything that they received.
Grandma Stein came and dropped off 3 little baskets for them as well.
They were very spoiled and had so much fun going through then
seeing all of the goodies that grandma spoiled them with.
Thank you GRANDMA!
The little DIVA had a fun morning…
Bam Bam also enjoyed sifting through his baskets…
noticed the curled toes on his itty bitty fat feet…
Ranger Danger was excited as you can see in this picture.
He was more focused on making sure his little brother and sister were ok
and helping them with their baskets then his.
I love what a BIG HEART he has!
These are the FACES of CANDY before 7am…
We’re off to The Jones Annual Easter Bash this afternoon…
MORE pictures to come…
Not only did the Easter Bunny come and fill the little monsters baskets

Today we went to the
ANNUAL Eggstravaganza Egg Hunt at the Laguna Hills Community Center.
We met some friends and family there too.
Normally every Friday I meet with my moms group:

I even saw a girlfriendI have not seen since high school (shout out to Kara- xo).

The kids all had a great time. It was crazy packed but still a great time with friends and family…
Bode was all about finding the chocolate...
 There were a TON of EGGS. It was crazy!
 It was the kind of "run for your life" moment...
Kaidin had a great time... 
Miya was her normal DIVA self. This day was all about her, right??!!?? 
 
Family and Friends...

All of our little monsters...
