Sprinklers

Just the kids playing in the sprinklers on a summer morning


And a ridiculously adorable picture of Corin on the trampoline, after he shed his diaper in the sprinklers:

Les Mis

Jason and I got to go see Les Miserables for a date.
So here's our date night selfie:

Terra's Birthday Party

The day after Terra's birthday we had a party for her.

For her cake she asked for a "really big, tall", purple cake with the purple and blue sixlets, a crown and a purple number 4:
I think I nailed it 

Terra decided to have a swim party, since it was June and we lived in a house with a pool, it just made sense.

Terra's Birthday

Our traditional "birthday child picks out breakfast"
Terra went for Star Wars cereal. Everyone agreed it didn't taste very good. Bu tit was sugary and fun because there were marshmallows shaped like Star Wars stuff




And an adorable video of her with her cereal

My Goofy girl



Then we went to McDonald's for lunch (we end up with a lot of junk food on birthdays)




Of course we got treats for her birthday while we were there.


A video here where the girls spent a bunch of time cleaning the floor and chairs with the hand wipes in the kids area.

Terra at four was fun and dramatic.

She had a WILD imagination. One morning I asked her if she had put her pajamas away and she replied "yes, I smashed them down into a cupcake and then I ate them" She seemed to always have some extremely creative/imaginative answer for everything.
Or nearly every morning she would tell us how she used her 'powers' during the night... things like a midnight trip to Disneyland, visiting the moon, watching a movie in the desert, growing taller than a house, etc.

The downside of the imagination, is that she would have crazy nightmares. Every night. Sometimes three or four times a night. She needed lots of love to calm down and not feel scared anymore. We both lost a lot of sleep during this phase.

She had the cutest chipmunk voice and talked non-stop.
