July!

July has been very busy at the Pulido house! To celebrate the 4th of July, Kayla's first 4th of July, we went to Temecula to watch a parade. What could have been a nice traditional 4th of July turned into total craziness once the girls started sweating at 9am. At that point, of the 4 for us, not one wanted to be there. Thanks to the local Starbucks we were able to make the best of the day and the 100 degree weather. Starbucks kept the Pulido family from having a total meltdown.










Chloe has become quite the artist! This was the first self portrait that she had ever drawn...of course it was on the cement rather then paper so I had to capture it on film. But because of that, you can see how pleased Chloe was with her talents!


During the middle of July we went up to Northern California for a couple of days. We were able to see my, almost, 88 year old Grandpa in Alameda. And were able to get a generation photo with the girls. Such special memories were made that weekend and Kayla made them even more special when she decided that she would start crawling on the same rug that Chloe started crawling on and more then likely the same one that my Dad started crawling on! KAYLA IS MOBILE! She is so proud of herself. Usually when she gets from point A to point B she sits and claps! During our time up there we were able to attend my great friend Alissa's baby shower. Alissa and I have known eachother since she was 3 and I was 5. She is super special to us.




The girls have become even closer. Chloe absolutely has to give Kayla the first hug and kiss of the morning. If she sees me sneaking Kayla a good morning kiss, she gets SOOOO mad! And, now that Kayla is mobile they are able to play together better.






So, that is July in a nutshell. We have begun planning the first and third birthday party for the girls. I cannot believe how fast time has flown by!

Water Fun!

The girls have been spending some quality time in or near the water. Kayla had her first trip to the beach last weekend. She had a lot of fun eating the sand and taking a nap on the beach. Chloe has been in swim class. Today was her last day of an 8 day intense session. For the first 5 days she did nothing but scream and cry. I have also posted pictures from a swim party that the girls were invited to. Lots of water fun!!!!












Sink or swim....
