A Day at the Beach

We finally made our way back to the beach on Saturday and spent the weekend with the Bennett's. It's always nice to get back to San Luis Obispo and dream of living there again someday. We stopped by Avila Beach to soak up some sun and listen to the waves. I brought my camera and enjoyed taking some pics of the day.

Royal one month

My littlest girl is already almost two months old and I really can't seem to wrap my head around how fast it has all gone by. I treasure the moments I have with this little bundle of squishy joy. And relish the snuggles, smiles and coo's I have with her cause all too soon they will be but a fading memory. She is truly a wonderful baby and I finally get to enjoy the newborn, infant stage this time around. I love those chubby cheeks and perfect lips, they are so kissable, I just want to eat them up. I am so lucky she chose to be in our family and couldn't imagine a single day where I couldn't hold her close and smell her sweet hair and skin. I realize that being a mother is hard work and is less than flattering especially when it comes to your body, but I am so grateful for my children and all the joy they bring to my life.

Christmas Pics

We spent Christmas up in San Luis Obispo at my brothers house where my parents and my sister her husband and her youngest came too to celebrate with us. It was such a nice time, just lounging and letting all my nieces and nephews tote Royal all around, what a nice break I got. Until I got home and she expected the Royal treatment to be held all day, no I don't think so sweety. The kids had a great time and we ate some good food! Here are some pics of our Holiday! Christmas eve, opening the Hockman tradation of P.J's and an Ornament. Christmas morning at our house to open "Santa's Gifts"! This is the dress Grandma Bennett got for her, she stripped off the one she was previously wearing and put the new one on. She wore it all Christmas day, slept in it that night and wore it again all the next day. It was a struggle getting that dress off of her. She Loved It! This is the quilt Wendi made for my mom, amazing! This needs no explaination. Sassy girl, Alisha! Nice shoes! Daddy and his Daughter, precious! Steven holding little Royal.
