Kacie's Baby Shower

Another busy weekend for the Erwin girls we went to a baby shower for Sydney & Tat's soon to be cousin Brooklyn. It was very fun and we got to see our Aunties Janice & Kathy and cousin Jennifer and Grammyria AKA Grandma Maria

Family Weekend

WOW!! was this weekend ever busy. The plan was to relax and not do to much...then we get a call on Thurs. from Auntie Leslie (Steve's younger sister) she coming down from Santa Cruz for a surprise visit. Like I said wow it was not relaxing in the least but OMG it was soo much fun. The girls went to the mall ALL day on Sat (Sydney is just the best little shopper). Then the grown - ups decided to go out for a little karaoke. What a fun weekend.

SK loved meeting her Auntie Leslie for the first time and totally became shopping buddies.

Even cousin Kayla came over to hang out.

New Year's "Potty"

This new years was a pretty quiet one. We spent the day shopping ( a favorite pastime for both me and SK) then just hung around the house. But during our shopping excursions we found a cute pink potty chair Sydney just had to have. She has been VERY interested in using the potty lately and wants to sit on it at every diaper change (and alot of time in between). She has even gone twice in the big potty and once at Grammy's house sat and sat then got off and pooped on the floor next to it (well it was close)... So does this mean it's "potty training" time??

Creative Girls

Tatiana and Sk are so creative ( okay Tat slightly more than her lil' sis), but anyway Tatiana is always into making and creating things. She is now making Chibi Charms ( chibi is an Asian type of anime) so of course Sydney had to get into the act. So we let her go at it using playdoh (thanks Aunt Amy).

nicely asking Tat for more???



These are some of the charms Tatiana has created. She is also selling them, and even takes custom orders ( she made me a mini camera key chain) and Yes I had to pay (not even a discount) wow what a business women :) Watch out Donald Trump!!

A Quick Visit

Sydney got a quick visit from her BFF Ryan. They came to spend part of the holidays in Ca. to see family but thankfully managed to squeeze in a visit to us. SK showing Ryan how she likes to use her new blocks yummm

and the ever popular Uncle Jason with his gaggle of girls... Tat almost looks like she could be his girlfriend/wife scary isn't it.

Bikes x2 for Chirstmas

How funny is it that even though our girls are 13 years apart they both got bikes for Christmas. Tatiana has been wanting a beach cruiser forever and Sydney loved using the bikes when she has visited Jenny Hart. So perfect they both got one. The only problem was the rain ALL DAY so the girls had to wait to use them.

Sydney actually made us push her around the house forever

When we finally had to take a break this was the reaction we got...


Though when there was a small break in the showers Tat just had to take a quick test drive.
