AZ Visit, MEXICO, and BRIGHTON'S BIRTHDAY OH NINE!!!

It's about time I update since our trip to AZ and Mexico since we've been home for 2 weeks now! We were super busy the whole time we were there! We took Corban and Brighton to the Phoenix Children's Museum one day and that was really cool! They had a blast! The highlight of our trip was going to Mexico! We went for 6 days with my family and stayed at the Mayan Palace in Rocky Point! We did a lot of relaxing and swimming on the beach mostly and did some shopping and eating of course! We took Corban with us and left Brighton with Cliffords parents! Being with family is always fun! Here are some pics from Mexico! This one is Corban being silly while waiting patiently for our lunch at the best restaurant in Rocky Point...Flavio's! It's so yummy!
Our first day on the beach Corban found a crab! He was so excited to show daddy!
It's Mr. Crabs
We went to the tide pools and tried to find sea creatures early in the morning! It was way fun!
Me and my sexy hubby
Our little family minus Brighton! It was nice not having her there though! haha
Corban and his cousins Max and Myles! They became best buds on this trip! It was so fun to watch them play! Keep in mind the twins are 6 and Corban is 4! haha
Corban is boogie boardin like a champ!
He loves taking pics! haha
Lovin the nice warm water!
Me and my mom and sisters that went this year! We are missing Kristin and Holly!
Here's Corban holding the starfish at the aquarium!
Corban and Daddy waiting for the turtle so they can pet it!
Our attempt to take a cute romantic pic with our initials carved in the sand! haha Our arms are supposed to be in a heart shape!
Me and my awesome Mom!
Here we are just before leaving to go home! We didn't want to leave! It went by so fast! Hopefully we can go back next year!
We left Mexico on Brighton's 1st Birthday! I can't believe my baby girl is already 1! Time flies by so fast! We got home and had cake and ice cream and gave her presents! She wasn't too sure about the cake at first but then dug right in! Here's a couple of her bday pics!
She loves cake just like her mommy!
She's riding the horse she got for her bday! She also got a purse with a necklace and bracelets, some books, a baby and a bottle(which is her favorite present and has to sleep with it every night), a stroller and another baby, and some pom poms! She loved them all!
Corban missed her so much while in Mexico so he's giving her big hugs! Awww!
She loves her big brother!
The day before leaving to go home we drove out to Scottsdale to eat at LoLo's Chicken and Waffles! Oh my goodness it is sooo gooood! You have to go try it sometime! Their cool aid is the best I've had in my life and the waffles with chicken is pretty dang good! If you like chicken and if you like waffles then you have to go! They have grits and all sorts of stuff to eat and you don't have to get the chicken with your waffles if you don't want! haha
Me and Heath!
Brighton is officially walking now too! Right around her birthday she started taking a few steps and after being home she figured it out! I love it though but she is starting to get fast and is running from me now! haha We took her to the Dr for her shots and here are her stats:
weight: 22.6 lbs 71%
height: 30.3 in 80%
head Circ: 19 in 99%
So she has a huge head! haha She is now sleeping in a toddler bed! We got a twin bed for Corban at DI for 10 bucks so we decided to put her in his toddler bed! He loves his new big bed and Brighton is doing pretty good in her bed! She fell off once but is doing better! We took Corban to get his kindergarted shots and he is still 100% in everything! I love my big boy! Here is Brighton walking!
Pretty girl!!! She loves her sunglasses!
We got this couch from DI for 25 bucks! What a smokin deal! We saw it and we couldn't pass it up! It was originally 60 but the guy sold it for 25 instead! It's one of those couches that is so ugly but so cool and most of you are probly like "that is the ugliest couch why would they buy something like that" haha but we love it! So let me know what you think of our couch! I love it!
