Spring Break 2019... and more

Has it really been more than a year since I last updated? I would like to blame it on life. 

Quite a bit has changed since March 2018. First off, we are no longer in our house. We've temporarily downgraded to a 1/1 apartment while our house is being rebuilt from the ground up! I'm hoping to move back by the holidays. Still crossing fingers... although we're a few phases behind schedule, I still believe in miracles. 

Our Spring Break just ended and we took a quickie one nighter trip to Monterey. Lucas went on a field trip to the aquarium and really wanted to go back again without rushing. 

Ready for our trip

Not sure she understands the concept of binoculars

Sister sister

Out of all the kids, Evangeline has changed the most in every aspect. She's a big troublemaker, but she's a smart kid. She's a super picky eater and loves to follow in her siblings footsteps. Sometimes it's not the best ideas to copy them since they're up to no good as well.

... and ice cream cones

When the trio are together and getting along, they're pretty cute. But on most occasions, the two older ones are fighting and Evangeline is just joining in the mix somehow.

And then there's Lucas... the boy who can't wait to get his own room and get some peace and quiet away from all then noise (aka: his sisters).

 Mom thinks she's pretty cool with her sun hat, too

And then there's the family pictures in April. There's Dad's birthday and Easter. This is our sixth year celebrating Dad's birthday at Benihana's. That glob of butter they put on everything took a toll on me when I got up the next morning. #gettingold

Kids are growing like weeds

 Evangie was so happy to sit on the Easter bunny

And that's pretty much April in a nutshell. We are four weeks away from summer. Hopefully there's also crazy quick progress with our house as well.
