Live Taping of "THE VIEW" in LA

I forgot my camera at home so I took these pictures from Jolene! My brother-in-law Tom heard that "The View" was coming to LA so he got 4 tickets to take Jaime to Wednesday's show. Plans didn't work out for them so Jaime asked me to invite a friend so I asked Jen to come with us. We left extremely early in the morning so I didn't sleep and picked everyone up at 2:45a.m. It was crazy but so much fun. LA was so cold that Jolene's toes were like a McFlurry but I have to say McDreamy McWarmed us all like a McMuffin! (Ha Ha...that was for Jolene!) Patrick Dempsey was certainly NOT a disappointment! Plus we were happy to see all the ladies from "The View" and receive 3 give-a-ways even though I am behind times and do not own a Wii for the game (Pixar's movie "Up") or a Blu-Ray player for the Wall-E movie! Oh well. We also got a subscription to a new Disney magazine!Jen, Me, Condy and Jolene waiting in our COLD seats before they took us to the set.Sisterly Love...Jen and I finally ready to watch "The View" The Set!

Opening Day!

It's time for softball again! We missed the actual "Opening Ceremonies" because I had a migraine but that didn't stop us from being fashionably late!It was also picture day !My sweet little Isabel is a Texas Longhorn this year :)Jolene is coaching Isabel, Carrie and Taylor. Kaitlyn is on the 10 and under team.Jaime is team mom. I try to make my girls call Jolene "Coach Eliaba" but I guess Jo Jo will do :)Cleo and I getting sun burned and not realizing it. I sure felt it the next day and I felt so bad when I looked at my poor baby with red arms and cheeks. You could even see where her headband was on her head! Oops. Cutie Katie! Her team sponsor gave them visors and sweatshirts. How nice!Kaitlyn's team...UCLA Bruins! This picture shows just how tiny Kaitlyn is next to all her teammates. They can't help but pat her on the head or pick her up and spin her around!

Cleo Clapping her Hands! Yay!

Last week Cleo started to clap her hands and since I'm her mother I think it's adorable. I was finally able to get her to clap with the video camera on but then she decided the curtains were way more interesting. She also clicks her tongue but I doubt I can record that but I love a challenge. She also loves to wave goodbye to herself and put her hands on her head...funny little thing. At the end of this video, Kona decides to visit and stretch/yawn right in front of me. It was kinda funny but he startled Cleo and made her cry :(

Friday the 13th

Isabel came home from school with a cute little birthday crown on her head, a new pencil and some beads. She also came home with all of her valentines. She loves having her birthday on Valentine's Day!Kaitlyn with her Valentines box. I helped her decorate it...isn't it cute? She used to get annoyed when I would get carried away with projects but now she embraces it. That's my girl!

Cleo being her cute little self. She loves to play on the floor with her toys and she puts everything in her mouth. We have to really watch her. No more leaving out the Barbie shoes :)

Lily was relaxing on the couch . She is always ready for her close up!

Chad took this one. Isabel entertaining everyone with the crayons. She was so funny. After the crayons were just right she would blow them over like they were candles on a cake. What a goof :)
