February

 Happy Valentines Day!!  We had a special breakfast to get everyone ready for their parties that day!
 Jayne in her new Valentines day dress (see babyjaynes.com for their valentines and our festivities)
My boys in outfits with red in them :-)
 Happy 4th Birthday Ryan!!!  I can't believe he's 4!  We got to celebrate for about a week straight!  He got to celebrate at school.  We got to bring a treat.  He chose Krispy Kreme Donuts, glazed with chocolate!  They were a big hit.

 We had a small friend party with his playgroup.  I took the boys to Chuck E Cheese!  Ryan was beyond excited.  We rarely go there and he's always begging to go, so it was so much fun to bring a few of his buddies along. 
 We also had a party at our house to celebrate the February Birthday's in the Jonas family!  Kacie and Ryan loved their cake and the cousins had so much fun.
 And last but not least, we got to celebrate at my parents house with my side of the family!
 Ryan got his favorite cake twice this week!
It was so much fun having cousin Ashton in town to celebrate!
I got to make 14 outfits for Jayne's Daisy troop to perform next month.  They have to wear the traditional dress from Madagascar! More pictures in March of their performance.
 
Jayne received a special award at school for academic achievement!  We are so proud of her!
 
My Boys... just chill'in :-)
Jayne danced in the school talent show with her whole Daisy troop.  They did such a great job!  And of course she loved it!
 We went to the Santa Ana Zoo for the first time this month too.  It is very small but we had fun.  We saw all the animals and played at the park there for a long time.  The boys loved it!

January

Jason took Ryan to his first Monster Truck show at Anaheim Stadium!  They went with all of his buddies and they had a blast!
I love my boys soooooo much!!  They are so cute together!  They play so well.  I hope they are always like this.
Ryan building a ramp with books :-)
Ryan's first day in Primary!  He was a little iffy at first.  He really wanted to go back to the toys in Nursery.  But he loves his teacher.  She does such a great job, so  he has really enjoyed it!
Going for a morning run!  They're kinda heavy, but they are so cute!  I love it!  They love going with me so it's fun.

My big boy!!  He's pulling up on everything now.  And finally kinda sleeping a little better.  We found that he loves some silky fabric.  I give him that and he's happy as can be.  He now has to have it to sleep.  We'll get there soon :-)

December

Jayne and her Daisy troop walked in the Laguna Niguel Holiday Parade!  She loved it!!
 I'm Jayne's Room Mom for her class so I got to plan the class Holiday party!  We had so much fun!!  It was a Gingerbread theme- made Gingerbread Houses, decorated Gingerbread Man cookies, played Holiday Bingo, read the Gingerbread Boy story and made a Gingerbread Man out of paper to take home.
 Jayne's Holiday Music Program at school.
 Ryan's Holiday Party at Preschool!!  He was so cute singing all of his songs.
 The boys were good helpers all month so I could get everything ready for Christmas!
I finally gave up on baby food and started giving Kyle regular good.  Here's the first time I gave him Spaghetti.  As you can tell, her loved it!!
 Christmas Eve!!  We went to dinner at my Grandma's house.
 We also exchanged presents that day with my family.
 It was a really fun night.  Here's the girls!
 Kyle got to be baby Jesus.  He was a little big but he stayed put on Jayne/Mary's lap.  Ryan absolutely did not want to put on a costume but he would sit by the kids.  He is his father's son :-)

My sister and I.
 Christmas morning!!  The kids were so excited!!  I love our Christmas morning traditions and wonderfully magical day!  We had so much fun together all day!
 Waiting on the stairs for a picture till they get the 'all clear' to see what Santa brought!
Everyone trying out their new bike!!
 The next day we took a road trip to Scottsdale AZ to spend our Christmas vacation with Jason's family.
We took family pictures.  I got this one while we were waiting.
The kids LOVED swimming in Grandma and Grandpa's pool.
They also loved getting to play with their cousins and see all of our extended family.
We got to go to a Phoenix Suns game and watch from a private suite...
took the kids to a fun train park, 
went to see Stomp, at the theater, and
celebrate New Years!!  It was a wonderful Christmas!  We are very blessed!!
