Daddy took us out to a special dinner at the Intercontinental Hotel this week. We were meeting him downtown (since he was there for meetings) so we could all go to corporate prayer together and he had the fun idea of a special dinner out. The kids were ecstatic and we had a really nice time!

Selfie with the late nighters!

These are some shots from an awesome saturday we recently enjoyed. We went to a local missions forum at church, then out to lunch at Bell St Burritos and then to a wonderful walk

We gave her a baby doll stroller and she was thrilled!!

My blogger access has been giving me problems so way behind in posts, but trying to catch up!
On February 4th, this precious daughter of ours turned TWO!!
We had a special day of enjoying her favorite meals and celebrating the amazing gift of her life.

Cream scones and tea on a recent afternoon brought smiles and giggles to the table!

Alexia and Marco will do soccer this spring and both had try outs a few weeks ago. They both love it!! We enjoyed the crisp spring weather as a family!

Whenever she plays with daddy's shoes, she makes sure to use the shoe horn!

5 kids on the swing set!

Stephanie and I met at farm burger for lunch on Friday. She was one day past her due date and ready to have that baby girl!!
After lunch we went to park day at Brook run and had lots of fun!

My hubby loves me so well. While I was napping on Sunday he prepared 3 amazing arrangements. This one on the kitchen table is just spectacular. It was Diego's touch to put the rocks in the vase.

Today we enjoyed a beautiful day at the zoo! All I can say is " Glory be to God!" that I can be 33 weeks pregnant and take 4 kids to the zoo alone. Really, it's no easy quest, but is one full of joy and gratitude. Lucia loved the animals, but when they'd get too close she'd say "No get you" bc she thought they were going to get her. I think her favorites were the zebras and sun bears. We were there for a little over 3 hours, came home for mama and lucia naps and then did school in the afternoon. Truly, homeschooling at its best! :).

Oh this crew, they're amazing!
Tuesday was quite a day!
Marco had speech at 9:00. After speech we stopped for a special breakfast treat at chik fil a and then headed to the DMV as I had to get my license renewed. They did amazingly well. I think we turned every head in that place as of course I was the only one with more than 1 child. We were only there for a little over an hour so it was not bad at all.
From there we went home to have lunch, do school and nap lucia.
At 2:20 we headed out again for my 32-wk prenatal apt. Again, they were champs. They really bless me so much, in so many ways and I am beyond grateful!

32 weeks!!

Out for an afternoon walk in this gorgeous weather!

Book ends reading books!

Sushi date night by the fire!
