February

 Happy Valentines Day!!  We had a special breakfast to get everyone ready for their parties that day!

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!!

Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to all of our dear family and friends!! We had another exciting year! The most memorable event was the birth of Kyle in early March. Learning to transition to 3 kids and still do all of our activities has been our year! Our summer highlights include an awesome trip to White Fish Montana with Jason's sister Jen and her family. We all loved it! As Ryan said the other day, "I want to go back to Montana...again and again and again." It was so much fun. I also took the kids to Lake Mohave with my family while Jason had to work. Jason got to get away for a short guys golf weekend with his brother, but otherwise we've been home bound with the baby! We feel very blessed to have work, all be healthy, and happy. We're looking forward to celebrating the holiday's with Jason's family in Scottsdale. We hope you all have a safe and memorable Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!

Love,
Jason, Trina, Jayne, Ryan, Kyle

November

For an early Christmas gift we gave the kids passes to Disneyland. It's been a while since we've had them and Ryan barely remembers going. I took him and Kyle after school one day. We had so much fun! It was Kyle's first time. The park was already decorated for Christmas. We met up with a few of Ryan's friends and had a great time!

Happy Boy!

Poor baby didn't get to keep him nap schedule that day. He was so tired he crashed on the tram on the way to the car. Poor 3rd child gets dragged everywhere :-)

The boys and I helped chaperone a Girl Scout field trip to the fire station. Ryan thought this was really cool too.

Jayne's Daisy Troop

I'm so happy we're almost over having the 1:30 church start time. Ryan was a mess and needed a nap but we couldn't cause we had to leave for Church. I was getting ready, and come down the stairs to find Ryan totally passed out on the middle landing of the stairs. Poor guy.

Thanksgiving Parties!! As room mom, I got to help coordinate Jayne's Thanksgiving Feast and go help with her party. Ryan had his party the same day at preschool. He sang songs and got to have his feast!

After the parties, I took all three kids to Disneyland! Jayne was so surprised to get her pass and so excited. She hasn't been for a long time.

I decided to be very brave. Besides taking all 3 alone, I decided we'd stay until bed time. It was a special treat to stay for dinner, the parade, and the fireworks. They even has a special parade for Christmas and make it snow!!

We almost never stay that late, but I have to say it was really really fun! Here's Small world, all lit up for Christmas! It was a very magical day. We missed Jason.

We got to go back to Disneyland on one of our Thanksgiving break days with a whole bunch of friends. Almost the whole boat was filled with friends. The kids loved it, of course.

Happy Thanksgiving!! The kids were all ready to eat our amazing Thanksgiving feast! We had a great day at my mom's house enjoying family.

Kyle fell asleep on the way home from Thanksgiving, still clutching his football that Ryan shared with him. So cute!!

Kyle is now crawling and sitting up really good! He loves playing with the kids.

Kyle also has 1 big tooth and a second tooth is just visible above the gums. He still HATES baby food, but is gradually starting to eat table food. His favorite food- quesadilla's, just like his brother. I love my little blue eyes :-)
