We celebrated NYE at Daniel's Broiler in Bellevue. It was such a fun evening being surrounded by dear friends and love ones! Avery had a little too much fun playing with his cousins and the first time we actually let him stay up wayyyy past his bedtime! It was totally worth the hug and kisses [...]
For two whole months, Avery has been asking for a kitchen! Every time we looked at the Target toy catalog, he always points to the kitchen or some kind of kitchen supplies. We go on Amazon to look at kitchen designs as well as watch videos of kids playing kitchen on YouTube! We keep saying [...]

Funny how Easter Sunday last year fell on Avery’s birthday and this year it falls on Andre’s birthday! We spent Easter Sunday at The Royal Hawaiian beginning with an easter egg hunt!
