Drumroll Please...


It's a BOY! Xavier is thrilled! Brooklyn is coping. She really wanted a sister, but she's surrounded by girl friends who love girly things. Poor Xavier is stuck playing the prince every day! I'm hoping the boys will be buddies and they'll watch out for their big sister.
The doctor said everything looks normal and perfect. She also said this guy won't be any six pounder. Everything measured big. Imagine?! Xavier #2...? Brooklyn will have her own built in bodyguards...unless they're the ones picking on her!

Family Fun Fest



The Honda Family Fun Fest was much more fun this year than last. It was inside! Last year, the kids were miserable in the blazing heat and long lines. It was crowded this year but not unmanagable. The kids wanted to ride every ride that went in a circle. Yuck! Xavier loved all the inflatables(slides, jumpy things, etc.) and Brooklyn enjoyed the helicopter ride.

We're off to see the Wizard!





We went to La Comedia dinner theater on the last day of their production of the Wizard of Oz. What fun! The kids behaved perfectly and sat through the entire show. One of the "munchkins" sat at the table behind us. Brooklyn was starstruck. She went over to the girl during intermission to let her know she'd done a good job. As the curtain was closing for the final time, Xavier yelled out "Bye Witch!" We were able to meet the characters after the show. I was surprised that Brooklyn was brave enough to get her picture taken with the Wicked Witch of the West. Xavier wanted nothing to do with the Green Meanie, but wouldn't let go of Dorothy's hand!
