The Return of Ryan

We recently took a trip up to Winnemucca to welcome home Abram's brother, Ryan. He just returned home from his mission in Argentina. We were all very excited to see him, especially Mackenzie.
Here's the family all together (missing Lindsey's sidekick, Nic, who was in Texas)

And we finally met the latest addition to our fast growing family, Luke.
It was also, Father's day. So, what better way to celebrate than driving 7 hours back to our home in Vegas. Thanks husband. You're the best.

Life

Hi. My name is Ava. I just came to Earth three and a half weeks ago. Nobody told me it was going to be this EASY! Everyone just loves to hold me and kiss me. This blond girl called Mackenzie keeps slobbering all over me. It's a little annoying but I love all the affection even though. I sleep a ton. I eat a ton. Anytime I want something, all I have to do is cry. Simple. These people just cater to my every need. I love life. My mom is a little tired, but she'll get over it. She loves me. My dad went back to work today. I missed him. I think my mom missed him even more. I can't wait to stay up with him tonight and have my midnight bottle. It's not as good as the real deal but I get to spend time with my daddy. That's all that matters. I am so glad I came to such a good family. They work so hard to make sure I'm happy. Like I said, all I have to do is cry. They keep saying I'm such a good baby so I must be doing something right.

Dress-Up Time?

Brooklyn loves playing dress-up. Perhaps she loves playing too much. Check out the Cinderella shoes and purse that she fell asleep in last night.

Our Lil' Graduate

Yesterday, we attended Mackenzie's preschool awards ceremony and swim party. Though it wasn't super sunny and hot like it usually is in Vegas, we still had a lot of fun. I am so proud of Mackenzie. She has learned so much this year. Macky's teacher recognized her for working hard, smiling always and noted that Mackenzie probably had the longest name out of all the kids and was able to learn to write/spell it very quickly. So you better watch out Kavya Shivashankar!
