My Birthday and more!

The fun continues over here! We celebrated Valentine's, my birthday, AND went to Sesame Street Live all in a 4 day span. Party! Here are some pictures from the last week:

 We have a little path behind our place with some water (nasty water so don't get too jealous). It is a fun path to walk and every time we get home now Amelia says, "A yittle walk mommy? yittle yittle walk please?" So we walk back to the water and throw in a few rocks. It's a fun routine.

 Maya is obsessed with the stroller these days and I love to see what little toys she collects in there.

Or some days she climbs in herself.

We made these valentines for grandma and grandpa. Amelia had a cute valentine exchange with her playgroup. She kept saying, "I give candy to my friends" and was so excited about it. It was 45 degrees at 9 in the morning which Amelia whined about and sat wrapped in a blanket on the park bench. We Texas people sometimes forget that the mornings are pretty cold here, it gets up to 70 by the afternoon. 

 The girls got these straw glasses and heart-shaped pancakes.

 I made Juan a "Date Nights at Home" jar. 

 And Juan got me some flowers. We celebrated by going out with the girls, buy one get one free at Qdoba if we kissed at checkout. Deal!

Maya made this face every time she was ready for another bite. She is pretty hilarious.

 Sesame Street Live! It was so much fun. Amelia loved every second, and she really hasn't seen Sesame Street much. It was just all the colors and they know how to work a crowd full of kids. Definitely going back again.



I adore this picture. First of all, can she be any cuter? And Amelia and Elmo, I guess they are best friends.


 And my birthday! Juan woke me up with breakfast in bed. Sausage mcmuffins (home-made) and eggs and a cheese danish (not home-made, he didn't go that far!). All my faves. The girls were so excited to help and Amelia came running in saying Happy Birthday! which sounded like Poppy Daddy, haha.

 Their dresses laid out for church, still melts my heart. I love having my two girls.


 Juan also invited friends over and made a fantastic meal, including this amazing fruit salad. Can you believe he cut all that up?

 Maya's really starting to love the attention from all of our friends, particularly the guys. We have a bunch of friends over for The Bachelor on Mondays and she makes the rounds, hamming it up with everyone.

 Juan picked out cake balls to make as my present. And when he told me, I knew they wouldn't be pretty. I can't successfully do cake balls. He burned the frosting and just kind of spooned it on, isn't it cute though? I really love Juan. And they were really tasty!



 Besties and gym buddies.

 And my love.

Amelia looked like she was on cloud 9 at the Sesame Street concert. So fun. That pic of Maya opening her mouth for a bit is hilarious. I think she wants you to put the whole plate in her mouth by the looks of it. Haha. I am so glad you had a great birthday. Who cares how the cake bites looked as long as they were yummy.
