Carly at 3 1/2 months old

For the Memorial Day Weekend we stayed home and went to the pool on Sunday and Monday. Saturday night we went to Saddleback Church and saw Tony's nephew Matt Papa sing and lead the musical part of the service. We also got to meet Matt's fiance Lauren. The Saddleback church is a huge campus and it is beautiful. Here are links to Saddleback and to Matt Papa's website:

I didn't get a lot of pictures of all of the activities this weekend but following are a few of Carly.

Here is a short clip of Carly. She looks and sounds like she is trying to tell me something serious. Probably that it is time for lunch!

Carly's Room

For the past week, we have been working on converting our middle bedroom back from an office to a bedroom for Carly. It currently has built in office furniture with a lot of shelving. We are removing the built-ins except for the Murphy bed to make room for the crib, dresser, toys, etc. Boy, have we accumulated stuff over the past 10 years! Tony and I both have worked from home at one point or another so we have lots of work stuff in there. Invest in Rubbermaid - I have bought a lot to store the stuff in. Once we get it done, I'll post a picture. In the meantime, here are some other pictures.

In Sydney's room....looks like Carly has her eyes on some of Sydney's stuffed animals....









A few folks couldn't view all of the pictures in the Palm Springs clip so here are a few of the pictures:

Palm Springs Weekend

I had a great Mother's Day weekend in Palm Springs. Tony's company had a weekend seminar and invited the family to come as well. It was at a place called the La Quinta Resort. Great Place! There are quads of bungalows with a pool in the middle. The property has about 50 pools in this set up. It is very spread out and lots of greenery. Very nice. Here is a montage of a few pictures.

This is a picture and a video of Sydney's riding lesson last Saturday. Hope you enjoy!

It is hard to get a picture that shows all the adorable expressions and mannerisms but following are a few attempts. To watch the video you will have to tilt your head sideways. Evidently a video can't be rotated like a picture.

Sister's videos

I figured out how to upload video so here are some samples, one of Sydney and one of Carly. Sydney came up with an idea to draw coloring pages and sell them on eBay. The video is her commercial for its advertisement. For Carly's video I was trying to figure out the camera so I will get some smiley video at a later time for you. At Carly's 10 week appointment she was up to 12 lbs 7 oz and 22 1/2 inches long.
