Charlie's birthday

I bought Charlie tickets to the Laker's game for his birthday.  Noah has really taken a liking to basketball and so we decided to have him go along.  They had a blast and Noah watched the entire game!  I couldn't tell who was more excited.  We also got together with my parents and brother's family and went to BJ's and came home and had some cake. 

Baseball 2012

This year Noah is on the Braves and Charlie decided to co-coach.  He is now playing player pitch and is learning to hit much better.  I truly am enjoying watching his team play and noticing huge improvements from last year.  We are proud parents and are glad he loves to play!

Aly's first haircut

BEFORE.........

AFTER! 

Aly had 6 1/2 inches cut off and she was a trooper!  She would never let me take her to get a haircut until just the other week.  Her first hair cut included a certificate with some of her baby hair, a manicure, a ring, braided hair and her choice of a flower clip!  I also had to post a picture of Aly in her dress and matching hairbows she got for Christmas from Grandma Gray.  I love my sweet princess!

Jog-A-Thon

Noah had fun at his school's Jog-A-Thon and ran over 100 laps.  I was amazed that he and his friend Azeem ran the entire hour!  Thank you to all our family and friends who sponsored him.

Easter 2012

Aly loved her pink Easter dress from her Grandma Gray.  She is so lucky to have such a wonderful Grandma.  We didn't get together with the Osako side, since Grandma and Grandpa Osako just got back from Japan and were still suffering from jetlag!  The kids had fun at Aly's annual preschool easter egg hunt.  Since Noah gets out of school at 11:30, he was able to join in the fun!  We were also able to spend Easter Sunday with the Call family and had yummy food and a mini egg hunt.  Aly loved riding in Addi's Barbie car.

Family Pics 2011

Thanks to our good friend Kate Thorpe, we were able to take some family pictures.  It truly is amazing how quickly the kids are growing.....we feel so blessed to be an eternal family!

First tooth, first day of school!

Noah started his first day of school....we can't believe how fast he is growing...I will miss having him around everyday! He also lost his two bottom teeth! Sometimes I wish he was my little baby again!
