3 peas in a pod

I snapped this cute picture before church today. Can you believe I made it to church on time??

Oh the places you'll go

Little miss Shelby had a fun time on the girls trip. Basically she is a cute little traveler who lives to be in the carrier. 

She saw the Golden Gate Bridge. 

Sh saw the lands end hike and the baths and the ocean. 

We played at Dolores park. 

She enjoyed the ambiance of a fancy Italian dinner. 

She liked the Capitola pier and dock

We went all over and while she hated the car rides, she liked being all around the girls!

Santa Cruz

Some of my girlfriends planned a trip to Santa Cruz his weekend and my husband was sweet enough to give his blessing and let Shelby and I go. 

Shelby liked the beach. She basically slept and nursed. My new lularoe shirt works great for nursing at the beach. She was totally covered. No sunburn for Shelby!

We then stopped for ice cream. It was huge and amazing. Topped with toasted marshmallow. Delicious. 

Siesta time

Here are some cute pictures of miss Shelby while we were in Chicago. She had her first pedicure and took a couple siestas. 

Double stroller

I have been jogging lately with my new (to me) double stroller. It is so nice but I am so slow when I jog. Another problem is that the handle bar is slightly too low so I get kind of bad posture and it is hurting my lower back. But I am researching ways to fix that (since I don't see myself leaving 2 kids at home anytime soon)

Anyway, today we ran with auntie ashley and Shelby finally fell asleep. I asked Mac if she was asleep and he turned over to her and started tickling her!

Cute boy. But I needed to remind him we don't tickle people who are asleep. 

Best buddies

Last Friday grandpa great came to my rescue. He helped me with some errands that were short enough to want to leave my kids in the car, but long enough that I couldn't leave them alone. Hence, great (as Mac calls him) to the rescue. He rode along with me and say with the kids in the car. 

Then we went to Ryann's assembly and he helped so much with Mac. It was nice that he had a bag of candy corn to keep Mac happy, but both of them enjoyed it a lot. 

So really who lets their 2 year old eat a bag of candy corn?  This mom does if it means he will sit quietly with his great grandpa for 45 minutes!

Kindness

My Ryann got an award at school for being kind. 

She is a very kind girl and we are so proud of her and for this recognition. Mom, dad, grandma, grandpa great, am and Shelby all came to cheer for her. 

Blessing day

Yesterday was a great day as rich was able to bless our sweet baby girl. She was peaceful and calm and beautiful even though I forgot her pretty bow. 

But I was just thinking how impressive it was that we made it to church almost on time. (Right after the opening prayer!)

Busy Saturday

I didn't get many pictures from the busy Saturday we had yesterday, but I snapped these two gems at the pool with Cory and Katie and ashley. 

Mac actually went willingly into he water and enjoyed it!!! Breakthroughs people. 

Tourist

Little Shelby is quite the tourist this trip. Stand donuts, riding the L train, going downtown, millennial park and taking a picture with the bean, and oh so much more. 

Okay fine. She just sleeps through all of it. She is a dream baby. And why wouldn't she be? I never put her down. Yikes. 

Pardon my grungy mess. It is super hot and humid today.
