"I'm Busy"

Victoria says "I'm Busy" all the time when she's well...busy. So this blog post is about my busy babies...Kindermusic, playdates, swiming, birthday parties, new adventures, Little Gym, and all the craziness in between

Victoria loves to get her face painted - favorites are hearts, flowers and butterflies

O'Neill has been teething and has made it into our bed a couple of times.

One of O'Neill's favorite things to do is take all the plates, bowls, forks, spoons, out of the drawer. It is so loud and makes a mess - but it is just so much fun! He does this about 2 to 3 times a day

Victoria and her playdate pals touching the sting rays. She LOVES the aquarium! Isabelle is the one with the blonde hair and is in her class at school. She knows all the Disney princesses and is teaching Victoria about them

Calling cousin Kate in Austin; telling Kate she isn't going to school today because she is going to soccer and asked if Kate is coming too! How sweet!

Daddy came to visit O in Little Gym. O was so happy to show off.

Brother and sister after bath before bedtime.

O'Neill's first experience at the Mommy and Me Mondays at the Arboretum. He had a blast at the sing a long, petting zoo and our first attempt at a picnic BUT we will stick with the high chair for a little bit longer.

Brushing the goats!

Frontiers of Flight Museum - Victoria pretended she was the pilot flying to Italy! and Costa Rica (wherefriend Isabelle went for Spring Break)

Brother and Sister having breakfast -

Victoria likes to play Candyland...well, sort of. She just likes the idea of a land full of candy.

KISS!

Dinner time! Victoria's favorite veggies are cucumbers and corn. O'Neill loves applesauce, yogurt, meat, grapes.

Bathtime is bananas at our house. They both love the water and they love to splash! We have to wipe down the whole bathroom after bathtime because water flies everywhere. O'Neill tries to climb into the bath before we are ready and then cries when we take him out. They love to take a bath in our master bath because it is huge and has bubbles.

Happy baby after dinner. He loves ripe pears!

Friends

O'Neill is such a sweetie. He loves to give hugs and kisses and sharing - all things he's learned from big sister. Here is his friend Reese

The kiddos got a swing set delivered this week. Victoria's favorite thing to do at the playground is swing, so she now has her own. She loves it! And O'Neill is such a trooper just swinging away...

Sharing with Sophie

His hair is getting a little long...so I put Victoria's clip in while he was eating - poor little guy. (He has since had a haircut)

Hard sleeper - he is OUT!

Victoria Goes to the Dentist!

Victoria had her first dental check up and she got a glowing report. When she got home, she was all about the silly string (floss) and all the gadgets to keeping teeth clean. And she flossed everyone's teeth and also "brushed" O'Neill's teeth! She even slept with her flossers.

Introducing O'Neill

O'Neill is what we are calling Baby Boy Zavala; formerly John Henry, Henry, Jack... but O'Neill fits him the best. The paperwork to legally change his name is in the works... and he will officially be John Henry O'Neill Zavala. whew. that'a alot of names but O'Neill is what we will call him. Victoria is so good about it and calls him O'Neill and sometimes she just calls him "Baby" - that's alot easier.
