We are going to Disneyland!

Thats right!! I cannot believe it! Amy, Kurtis, Logan and Kyle invited us to Disneyland on December 6th and 7th. Maddy and I will be flying to Cali for the weekend to go to Disneyland with them... during Christmas season!
I am beyond excited and thankful to my lovely husband for always working so hard to make it happen.
We cannot wait to spend some time with my little men Logan and Kyle... my little loves!
Maddy still cannot believe that she will be going. She keeps asking me... are we really going? So Mickey, Minnie, Ariel and everybody else... here we come... AGAIN!

Gymnastics news!!

Madison was taking gymnastics with Miss Marla on mondays at 9 am. We went today to take her class because she didnt have class on monday because of Labor day so they had their make up class. We got there earlier to pay for her tuition and Miss Kathy she is the head coach for the girls team was at the reception desk when we were there and she said she wants Madison in her preschool class!!! I was so freaking excited so Maddy will be taking gymnastics with Miss Kathy on Monday morning at 11 am. I am so happy because this coach is the main head coach for the girls team! Maddy had an amazing class too.. she got a WOW card (not World of Warcraft LOL) a WOW card is a recognition for an specific element that they did during class that the kids were able to do on their own! She got one today from Miss Marla and she was just so proud of Maddy. Also we were chatting before class and we found out that Nastia Liukin took class there too! When she was little like Maddy! I am just beyond excited with her gymnastics classes. You just know when they will like it and Maddy is just all about gymnastics. She is so girlie girl and she loves everything about it. She likes to have girlie leos and pretty hair when she takes class and when she walked in today she kept pointing at Shawn J. when she saw the posters for Olympic month that they had at the gym.. Miss Kathy thought that was pretty amusing hehehe. Well.. I will update soon with new pics once she starts taking class with Miss Kathy which she also mentioned that she will be taking class downstairs in the big gym! Just what Maddy wanted!
When you know gymnastics you just know how it feels to love it so much.. I did and I can see that in Maddy too. I am just so happy that we have been able to give her that and encourage her to do what she likes to do the most!..... doing flips!
Go Maddy!

She's in preschool!

My baby is now a preschooler! Today was her first day of school.. it was amazing. It was such a bittersweet moment to see my baby walk in her classroom to meet her new friends and her teachers. Its a new chapter in her life and ours too. It seems that it was just yesterday when we had her and now she has become an amazing and independent little girl. She has the cutest personality and she is just a joy. I am so proud of her and I cannot wait to see what the next few years have for us. I was looking at her photo albums last night and I couldnt help cry thinking how fast life goes by.
Maddy and Allie are going to school together.. could it get any better?? I dont think so! The 2 best buds ever are now going to share this new experience together. They learned how to crawl together and now... off to preschool they go!
We love you Maddy and we are so happy you are so excited to go to your new school!

MEOW!

Maddy and Melanie got their halloween costumes.. they are going to be kitties. And they look so cute! What do you think?



Sleepover!

Madison and Allison had their first big girl sleepover! Kim and Mike went out so we asked Kim if we could keep Allie overnight. Ginny watched Ava and we had Allie for the night. Maddy had been begging me for a sleepover with Allie so they finally got to have it! They had such an amazing time and it was so awesome to see how much they love each other. They played, baked together, went outside with their trikes, danced with the Little Mermaid movie and they just had a blast! Aww they are growing so fast.. Kim and I are just so happy to see how their friendship grows by the minute. They are going to preschool in only 2 days! Maddy and Allie will be going to the same school and the same class so we are beyond excited!
Here are some pics of their sleepover.







Ballet

Maddy started ballet at a new studio. She was suppose to start Sept 14th at a studio by our house but the lady closed the place. So I found a new studio (a very cool one!) so we enrolled her last week. She loved it. She will be having a huge recital at the end of June. Here are a couple of pics of her class.
