Victor and Toy Story

Victor LOVES Toy Story especially Toy Story 2 because he loves Jesse:) The other day Felipe told me they were watching it together, when all of the sudden Victor left the room and came back with a q-tip and started to clean Woody's eyes. He did it at the exact time as the movie was doing it. It was SO CUTE:)

Amalia's Birthday Celebrations

Amalia had a fun 8th birthday. She celebrated with Abuela on the 4th of July! Aunt Julie stopped by and gave her some darling summer pj's which she loves to wear whenever they are clean:) Then the night before her birthday she got to open her scooter w Papi since he wakes up so early and she wanted him to be there when she opened it. Then she opened the rest of her presents the next morning. She got some great stuff, which mostly consisted of new clothes....she loves to create and make up new outfits in her wardrobe. Then we headed down to Provo to celebrate with her cousins.... we all went to the movies together. Karolina decorated a beautiful cake all by herself for Amalia..she is our inhouse cake girl:) Then we had a birthday dinner with Grandma, Grandpa, Maddy and Hannah:) Maddy and Hester hooked her up with some cute clothes from Maddy's new job and Auntie Hannah took her to get her annual birthday pedicure and snowcones...which she always looks forward to. Grandma made her a "puffy dress" with a matching one for her doll. She has been asking for a puffy dress for years and Grandma made her dreams come true:) She is one little girl who is loved by many:) Thank you.

Practice Makes Perfect

Karolina LOVES to draw. I would not be exaggerating to say she draws at least 2 hours a day. She works hard at it and is always trying to improve. I came across a Curious George she drew in Kindergarten and then she drew one freehand last week. Practice does pay off with time:)

She is Victor's favorite person to draw chalk with on the driveway... she draws a great Woody and Jessie and Victor always asks for her to draw them and she always does...what a nice sister!
