Teegan's 4th Dino Party!

Sunday Tay and I met up with all the Gals and the kids at Build a Bear to celebrate Teeg's 4th birthday! Tay picked a orange dinosaur and the kids all helped name him "Roar" the Dinosaur. It was such a great party, they made their animals, then the entire store sang happy birthday to Teegs and Teren made yummy cupcakes for us all. Tay was very upset that he didn't get to eat 2, he conked out for 3 hours when we got home - now that was a good party! Thanks so much Teren, we love you and your boys!

It's Summer RIGHT?!?!

Its sure felt like it this weekend and we had a BLAST! Friday nite we went to the Fullerton Food Trucks with Drake and Tim and ate WAY too much, then watched some comedy at our place. Saturday Gus worked and then we headed off to Disneyland for our 2nd year as pass holders! We watched the parade curbside and Tay got a high 5 from some dancers, he loved that!  We sat next to the cutest twin girls and he made fast friends with them of course, our little ladies man.  Then as usual we went on rides and then dragged our tired feet home.

Sunday after church we headed to Huntington Beach to meet up with Trail and Sherry and had a great day on the sand! They live about 1 block from the beach so we walked there, the boys took Tay in the water and it despite the 80 degree weather it was freezing in the water.  The beach had this weird shore where they walked in really deep then back up again to a low tide the further they went out.  The pic below has Gus holding Tay before walking up and Trail up, it was strange.  Other than cold water Tay had a great time and only tried to eat the sand 1 time. Tears followed and after that debacle he decided he needed to relocate all the sand from 1 side of the towel to the other and kept himself busy for about 30 minutes walking back and forth organizing the beach. We had a late lunch at Zimzala (which was DELISH!!!) and then headed home.  Can't wait for many more weekends like this!

Whitney Pearl Bright Faust

Sunday evening Miss Whitney made her debut via C-section and made my wonderful friends Wendy and Wes parents for the 1st time. After 3 years of battling infertility the Lord has brought them this precious gift thru IVF and I have NEVER seen a couple handle a challenge from God with such patience, grace and humility. What a blessed reward they have received! Miss Whitney arrived 9 days late and is 8lbs 5 oz & 22 inches long. She has the most beautiful skin, crystal blue eyes (like her mommy) and the sweetest nose ever seen. She's just perfect! Gus and I got to meet this little gal last nite while Tay played at Ryle's for a bit. Thank goodness we were early, the Faust room filled up fast with visitors! Congrats again Faust Fam and I can't wait for all our play dates (and more Faust babies of course!!)  O and you MUST click over to see Whit's nursery - its to DIE for!

Beach Bum

Sunday we headed to San Clemente to meet mom and dad for lunch before they head off to Israel in a few weeks.  We had a great lunch on the pier and then lots of laughs playing with Tay on the beach!  He LOVES the water and by the end we were using all our strength to hold him back from running full force into the waves.  As you can see while taking pics I got drenched by a huge wave - totally worth it!

Adventures in Double Ear Infections

This little cold for the past 3 weeks turned into a BIG cold Wednesday and as we sat at the Dr.'s office waiting to hear we watched and heard our little man get worse and worse. Spiking fevers and no appetite were all the signs we had to go on but he got it, double ear infections. Thursday was our peak day and thank goodness we had already started the antibiotics because he was miserable. We stayed home all day and laid on the couch and he slept ALL day. He wanted to be right on me and wouldn't settle for anything less. Other than him being sick, I loved every minute of all my cuddles with him. For a few breaks I got to get up as he crashed out on the couch and I got my new favorite picture, all 3 of my babies sleeping on the couch!  He is much better today, woke up with a happy little personality again, still off tho but he will kick this!
