AZ Birthday & LB Aquarium

We met up with Kurt's parents, sister, and Julianne's cousins in Long Beach to check out the aquarium. Although it was a hot day we had a blast seeing sharks, seals, jellyfish, and birds.


While in Arizona we were able to celebrate Julianne's birthday with my parents and two sets of great grandparents. She is a lucky girl to have three sets of greats in her life. She commanded everyone's attention playing with all the balloons and diving into the banana cake and vanilla ice cream. The Westergards, Petersons and Bradshaws also came for the fun! We sure miss them and want them to come visit us here in San Diego!

La Jolla

We had several celebrations for our sweet Julianne for her 1st birthday! I have taught her young to stretch it out and celebrate the whole month. These pictures are on her actual birthday in La Jolla wearing the cute outfit her New Mexican Aunt Alyssa sent her. Julianne kept running towards the ocean wanting to go swim! She is like her daddy and always wants to be in the water. She loves the sand in her toes and the waves crashing on her. I couldn't have asked for a happier, sweeter, more lovable daughter that I get to have as my little shadow. I love spending my days with her by my side and I love watching her develop and learn and grow. I just wish it went by a little slower:(

Birthday!

Happy Birthday Kurt! I am so happy you were born 29 years ago in Mexico City. We love you! We are going to make the last year of your 20's the best yet!

Happy Weekend!

Love being in Arizona with family and seeing good friends! ALthough it was difficult to leave Jules with her first babysitter I did manage to have fun with my family and especially my sister.
Highlights of the weekend so far:
-shopping
-Cardinals football game
-Yogurtland, Rosa's, Vitos
-Mom being funny - accidentally calling the neighbor boy and asking if it was Victoria's Secret
-Celebrating birthdays - Drewski's b-day and Jules again - banana cake and ice cream
-seeing my BFF Kelsee
-Nice hot weather (totally kidding - I think I am already a California girl)
-Date night with good friends (the Help and Cafe Rio)

Up To No Good

Julianne is all over the place these days. She is walking everywhere, opening child-proofed cupboards, stealing my cell phone, climbing in the fridge, pulling all the books off the bookshelf, climbing in laundry baskets and chewing on books. I happened to catch her in action and thought these were cute enough to document.

San Diego

San Diego is not a bad place to live in August! We are very grateful to be here in a new city exploring all that it has to offer! The weather is unbelievable, the beaches are close and we are now annual pass holders at Sea World! We have been trying to pack in everything we can since our stay here will only be a few short months!

California Bound - for awhile!

It's official- Our little family is moving to California! We have a busy few weeks ahead of us moving all of our belongings and trying to find a place to live before Kurt starts his new job. Wish us luck- and come visit!
