Trip to CA

WARNING!!! Lots of pictures ahead....

I have been a blogging slacker lately, but I am finally getting around to posting our trip to California. We had lots of fun, but I needed a vacation to recover. It's a lot of work traveling with kids! We started our trip in Vegas to see my family and then worked our way to California. We hit Huntington Beach the first day and then Disneyland the next 2 days. The kids loved it and they were so worn out by the time we were done. Rayden wasn't the little angel I had envisioned her to be, but we survived! On Thursday we played in the hotel pool, packed up and headed down to Del Mar / San Diego area. We stopped at another beach to walk in the sand and stand in the water. Friday took us to Sea World and visiting all the animals. It was tons of fun. Saturday we headed back to Vegas for the night and visited with Jason's brother's family. So we woke up Sunday morning, packed everything up and finally headed home. It was so fun to make lots of memories with our kids and Jason's parents. We really did have a good time, I think next time I may have to learn to relax a little and just enjoy all the chaos. Do they make medication for that?

Happy 4th Birthday to my little stud muffin!

About 6 months

About 9 months

And finally 4!!!!

I can't believe he is already 4. He is so full of life and has endless amounts of energy, making it impossible to keep up. Although he tests my patience every day, I love hime to death. He gives the best hugs and always wants to cuddle when he is tired. He may act like he is growing up, but somewhere deep down he is still my little boy!

Happy Birthday Ryker!
