Baby Jaden!

Baby Jaden turns ONE.  

The boys were excited to celebrate Jaden's first birthday.  They enjoyed playing with all the kids at the party, testing out Jaden's new ride (a Benz, of course!), and getting an awesome goodie bag.  

Happy Birthday, Baby Jaden!  We love you!

Class of 2012 - Kindergarten!

Whenever we asked Dylan about his graduation, he never wanted to talk about it.  “It has to be a surprise!”  And it sure was.  They recited the pledge of allegiance, sang songs for the Mommies and Daddies, paraded in costumes from around the world, shared the work they’ve been doing at school and even danced for the crowd.

Dylan was so happy to have everyone join him at Graduation – Lolo, Lola, Grandma, Uncle Tommy, Ninong Jeff, Tita Juli, Jaden, Ninong King and Ate Cece were all there!  As an added bonus, he even got presents!!!

Father's Day - at Central Park

It was a perfect cool summer day. We packed up for a day in the city to celebrate Father's Day.  As we do every year when we go to Central Park, first we hit up Shake Shack for some juicy burgers and delicious shakes.  It was packed as always but definitely worth the wait.

The boys loved the Central Park.  In summary, per Dylan:  this is the biggest park I've ever been to!  They enjoyed the HUGE sand box (no surprise there), the crazy bumpy slides, and street performers.  But the one thing they were looking forward to the whole was riding the subway.  They even insisted on just standing up and holding on during the ride.

Food!  burgers, fries and shakes all around.  Here's Dylan - he's the eating monster!

 

 

Yes, Mommy likes to dress them alike and in bright colors, esp when we are going out to a place with lots of people.  It makes it easier to remember what they are wearing and to spot them from a distance.

Daddy's favorite part - playing ball in the park

just the boys - this is the biggest sand box they kids have ever seen and they spent about two hours here!

they couldn't get over it - riding the subway new york city style!

we stayed for a few minutes, just watching the trains go by

for dinner - one of Daddy's favorite places - BBQs!

The next day, we went to Lolo's house for a BBQ  -  Happy Father's Day!!!!
