Mexico!

Warning: the following blog only contains a couple of pictures of Audrina, continue at your own risk!



Last week Zach and I took an adult only trip to Mexico! We had a fabulous time and have 0 complaints for the entire experience. Because of the poor ecomony and swine flu the resort was only at 20% occupancy (horrible for Mexico, but great for us)!

Just arriving, the ocean breeze felt so nice after a day of traveling!

We will only be this white for a few more hours!


Beautiful beach. Lots of coral and fish just a few yards into the water!


Happy 30th!!





How my legs remain so white is amazing to me!




Water aerobics!



Beautiful pools! Please notice the lack of people. At the peak of the day there were only a few more people than what you can see here!



We could have stayed there forever if we hadn't missed Audrina soooo much!! We were excited to get back to our little girl.

And she gladly helped us unpack!

'Dad, where does this go?'

'Ok, I'll follow you!'

Happy Easter

Happy Easter!
We had a fabulous Easter. In the morning my mom and John came over for brunch, Easter baskets and playing! Audrina has been in a great mood and we all had a wonderful morning.
In the afternoon we went to Zach's cousins house for more food and an Easter egg hunt. At first Audrina was confused as to what to do, but by the end she was getting the hang of it. We only wish the weather had been nicer, but we had a perfect day anyway. (Sorry for the sideways pics, I'm too lazy to switch them now)! :o)

Watching the eggs being 'hidden' outside.


Happy girl. She loves parties!





'I'm out here in the rain, now what?'

'Oh I get it, find these colorful eggs'



'Look Dad, they're even on the fence!'
Checking out her loot!


Zach, Audrina and I would like to thank everyone for a wonderful day! Hope everyone else had a very Happy Easter!

Fatticci Wedding

This past Friday Zach's cousin Meghan got married. Very beautiful wedding and we were all part of it! Audrina was a flower girl, I was a Bridemaid, and Zach was an usher. Audrina did amazing, and we all had a great time (but are exhausted and glad the crazy week has come to an end)!
I've been post lazy lately, so I'm posting quite a few pictures to make up for it.




Getting the 3 of of all posed for a picture is not an easy task! This is the best we could do.




She was not too amused with having to sit so long for the photographer, but she handled it pretty well.


One of her favorite positions - UpSide Down! ....she must be mine!







As long as she has an appropriate amount of attention (all of everyones) she is quite happy!








Zach walked down the aisle with her. I cannot wait to get those pictures back, it was one of the cutest sights I have ever seen!

Playing

Yesterday we meet Erin and Alec and Katy and James at the Broomfield Rec for some play time. They have a fantastic free play area for the kids, all 3 of them loved it, and we'll be going back soon!

Audrina enjoyed showing off her new walking skills.

She also just loves to watch the other kids playing.

James thought it was one of the worst things ever that these balls could not come home with him!

She did great climbing her way up to the slide!

And she didn't want to wait for a picture to be taken before going down the slide.


James on his way down!

This is the most common view I have of Audrina lately. Wanting to be picked up.


Getting some water after a hard workout!
We all had so much fun, and are looking forward to getting together again soon. Next week we might try the pool! (that is if I can find a swim suit that looks half way decent.....)

Getting Ready to Bike!

Saturday we went to the bike shop and purchased a carrier for Drina to ride in this year! Hooray! We have spring fever and are anxious to get on the trails again.

Drian also tried out tricycles, she still needs a few inches but loved crusining around.

Her helmet finally fits her, so we made a game to get her use to wearing it! She seemed to love that both her and Zach had these funny looking things on their heads.


Hopefully next weekend will be nice and we can actually get out on the roads!

Mall Date

Friday we met Katy and James at Flatirons for a playdate to escape the wind. Audrina loves every part of the mall, she sat straight up in her stoller talking and pointing at everything we passed. James' favorite part of the mall is the play kitchens at Pottery Barn. We could have spent half a day playing in the store, we had a great time!





James loved showing Audrina all the different kitchen appliances. Hopefully this kitchen skills will transfer over in a few years and Drina will be an excellent cook, just like her dad!
