Happy Halloween!

Analeah and Sofi were princesses for Halloween (big surprise there) David's mom made these dresses for them the last time we went to Ecuador. They were so cute! and matching! Anyway, we had a ward trunk or treat at the Church and then we went trick or treating!
Analeah y Sofi se vistaron como princesas para Halloween! La abuelita (Mariana) hizo unos vestidos precisos cuando fuimos a Ecuador en Junio. Las ninas estaban tan lindas! Tuvimos una fiesta de nuestro barrio y fuimos Trick or Treating ayer.

The Cake Walk

I wish I took some pictures, but trick or treating was hilarious. Sofi couldn't believe that people were just giving her handfuls of candy. After they did so she would just giggle and run to the next door. She wouldn't let us carry her bag of candy at all--it was hers! It got so heavy she decided that the stroller would be a good place for it to go. She defensively held on to the stroller to make sure I didn't take it away. Everyone thought they were so cute!These pictures are afterwards.

Trick or treating fue chistoso. Sofi no creia que la gente le dio caramelos. Depues de cada casa, se reia y queris ir a otro puerto. Fue muy defensiva de su funda de caramelos y no nos dejo a ayudarla. Despues se puso los caramelos en el carrito. Las fotos estan despues de la experiencia!

Randomness!

Analeah got some princess shoes for her birthday. Whenever I told Sofi to go get some shoes on, she would choose Analeah's princess shoes! They are so big for her, and she always falls, but she loves them. So Grandma sent her a pair to be like her sister! The photo is kind of blurry. They kept moving a curtsying!
Analeah recibio unos zapatos de princesses para su cumpleanos. Cada vez que le dijo a Sofi a escojar unos zapatos, escoja los zapatos de princeses. Son muy grandes, y siempre se cae pero le encantan. Entonces, la abuelita la mando unos de su mismo. La foto es borosa :( We had some ice cream and I couldn't resist taking some photos of their faces. Sofi with her cheesy grin and Analeah like a model poses for the camara!
Comimos helados y no podia resistar a tomar fotos. Sofi tiene una sonrisa chistosa y Analeah es como una modelo!

San Diego Temple

One of David's Mission Companions and his wife came down to visit. We met at the temple. The girls and I hung out outside while they went in. Sofia threw up all over on the way their, so I bought the girls new outfits. What a good excuse to shop! Afterwards we went and ate. Thanks for visiting Davis and Asialene! We really enjoyed seeing you. Come back again!
El companero de la mision de David y su esposa nos visitaron y fuimos al temple. Las ninas y yo hicimos compras porque la Sofi se vomito en el carro. Necesitaba ropa nueva. Entonces compre para las dos! David y los Smith se fueron adentro el templo. Despues fuimos a comer. Gracias por visitarnos David y Asialene! Que gusto verlos! Regresan pronto.

A Birthday Princess!

Analeah turned 4! I can't believe it. She is such a blessing in our lives. We had a great weekend, actually celebrating most of her birthday on Saturday. We went out to eat and opened presents then. On Monday we had a little party with another family from our ward. She blew out candles and had a great time. Thanks to all who called. Happy Birthday To our Princess!
Analeah se cumplio 4 anos! No puedo creerlo. Ella es una bendicion en nuestras vidas. Tuvimos una fin de semana grande, celebrando en Sabado y Lunes. Comimos en un restaurante y Analeah abrio sus regalos tambien. En lunes, tuvimos una fiestita con una familia de nuestro barrio. Gracias a todos para llamar y felicitarla! Feliz Cumpleanos a Nuestra Princesa!

I asked her what kind of cake she wanted and she chose cheesecake this year, nothing fancy or extravant. I tried to persuade her to choose an actual cake so I could decorate it but she insisted. So funny!

Le pregunte que typo de torta queria, y me dijo "cheesecake" Trate a convencerla a escojer una torta para decorar per insistio su cheesecake!

And to top off the day, I gave Sofi a bath and then dressed her. I went to get clothes for Analeah and when I came back into the bathroom, there Sofi was being herself! She just wasn't finished I guess! Silly girl!
Y para terminar el dia La bane a Sofi y la puse su ropa para dormir. Fue al otro cuarto para hacer algo y cuando regrese, aqu estaba, sonriendo! No estaba terminada!

Silly Pictures

First Day of Preschool

We decided that Analeah was ready for preschool, so we started a little joy school along with 3 other kids in our ward. With a total of 4 kids, each mother teaches 2 times a month. She goes twice a week and absolutely loves it. They have a curriculum that comes every month with worksheets and planned activities. Here is her first day. It was really bright outside.

Empezamos un pre-escolar para Analeah. Con 3 otros ninos, cada madre ensena 2 veces por mes. Asiste 2 veces por semana y absolutamente le encanta. Esta apriendo todo las letras y sonidos. Y como escribir. Y puede leer unos palabras y escribir su nombre. Estamos orgullos de ella!

A Sad Day

We decided to cut Analeah's hair because it was down to her waist and kept getting so tangled. I was really hesitant to cut it because I didn't want her to lose those beautiful ringlets. She has such beautiful hair. We cut about 7 inches off :(. I was right, her ringlets haven't returned.
:( However she is happier because it's not so hot.
Decidimos a cortar el pelo de Analeah. Fue muy largo y dificil a mantener. No queria porque pense que los rizos no regresaria. Entonces cortamos 7 pulgados de pelo:(. Y no regresaron los rizos. Esta mejor porque no siente calor pero estoy tristo para sus rizitos!

SeaWorld

Here are more pictures of SeaWorld. We loved the whales and Dolfins. They are so amazing to watch. We are definately going back!

Hay mas fotos de SeaWorld. Los encantamos con los delfines y ballenas. La presentacion fue chevre. Vamas a regresar pronto!

Bay of Play--Seaworld

We went to SeaWorld while Mom, Dad, and Cary were here. What an awesome place! We had such a fun day, and the girls loved all of the animals, especially Sofi. They have this new addition called Bay of Play, which is a Sesame Street attraction. They had rides, and all of their favorite characters! We got pictures with Cookie Monster, of course both of the girls wanted Elmo, but the line was too long--we settled for Cookie!

Cuando mis padres y Cary nos visitaron, fuimos a SeaWorld donde tiene un atracion de juegos del Plaza Sesamo. Tomamos fotos con Cookie Monster. Por supuesto las ninos quisieron tomar fotos con Elmo, pero la linea estaba muy larga.

Baseball!

We went to a LA Angels Baseball game 2 weeks ago. David got tickets from a friend at work. We had such a fun time. Analeah ate cotton candy for the first time, and she said that she was sick after eating so much. We had great seats, and the girls loved the fireworks that they shot off after every home run!

Fuimos a un juego de beisbol de los angeles Angels. David recibio los boletos de un amigo de trabajo. Analeah comio algodon de azucar para la primera vez y se enfermo un poquito del estomago. Tuvimos buenos asientos y las ninos les gusto los juegos artificiales! Los acordamos de Pancho y Pocho!
