Ava wanted a shopping spree for her birthday so I took her to the mall and we shopped and shopped!! We also ate a Cheesecake Factory and had Oreo Birthday Cake. She wanted an Echo Dot to play music in her room. Ava is beautiful inside and out. She is reliable, hard working, kind and sociable. I am very proud of the young women she is and becoming. She is a great example to her younger siblings. She helps me willingly. I ma so glad I get to be her MOM!
Ava is 5 ft. tall now.
ITs hard to believe my twins are 6 now and are in first grade. For the twins birthday we went to build a bear and then ate at California Pizza Kitchen then cake and presents. Levi also got to bring his good friend Luke and Kash to Dave n Busters and play lots of games, win prizes and eat yummy food. Meanwhile Lexi took her best friend Jade to Color Me Mine and then to Red Robin.
Levi is confident, loud and loves to tease. He tests me daily but knows how to give a compliment. He loves baseball, basketball and video games. He is 45 3/4 inches tall and 47 lbs. (50% for both)
Lexi is sweet, loving and a fashionista. She loves playing dolls, going shopping and swimming. Lexi is 45 1/4 inches tall (50%0 and 40 lbs (25%).
Well it is hard to believe that Kohen is now 2. He is smart, athletic, loving, silly, energetic, articulate and full of smiles. He is a fan favorite wherever he goes. He makes his presence be known saying hi and inviting people to come watch him do his tricks. He is very skilled hanging on the bar, doing rolls, head/hand stands and the splits. He can hit and throw a baseball, kick a soccer ball and bump a volleyball. He loves to read and sing. He enjoys puzzles. He recently mastered the children's version of Perfection; getting all the pieces in before the buzzer. The game says ages 4 and up but this little 2 year old is amazing!! He has learned how to scooter. His siblings still adore him and he loves playing with them as well. He has become quite the break dancer and gymnast. He just started classes at the little gym because he was hanging and doing tricks on the treadmill I knew he needed more. He loves bubbles and people. I can't imagine life without him as our caboose.
Height: 30.5 inches (0%)

We are still in the process of figuring out why he is so tiny. We are currently seeing an endocrinologist (all tests normal so far); a genetic doctor (waiting on the results) and will be seeing a GI doctor in July. Other then being small he is thriving and meeting or surpassing all milestones. He amazes me and others. I am so proud of the boy he is and the person he is becoming. I love you so much Kohen!! The sky is the limit!!
Its hard to believe my baby is 18 months. It is bitter sweet but it is so much fun watching him grow and learn. He is climbing up on everything. He can jump and do a forward roll. He is very social with everyone he meets. He can repeat almost any word I say. He is so smart!! He still cries almost every time I leave him to sleep. He still loves to nurse before nap and bedtime. He is eating better but is still a pretty picky eater and not willing to try different foods. Hopefully this phase will end but it has forced me to get creative on feeding him. Hi favorites foods are mandarin oranges, mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, donuts and candy. He is still tiny. Not even on the charts still but seems to be growing at a normal rate now. Hopefully he will get a spurt so he can catch up with his peers. We are working with a children's endocrinologist and now a Genetic doctor to help rule out any possibilities for why he stopped growing from 6-12 months. Hopefully we will get some answers but he is exceeding all other milestones besides height and weight. He might be tiny but he doesn't let that slow him down!!We love you Kohen!! Keep smiling!

Happy Birthday Kash!! We celebrated by going to a jump park called Sky Zone. Kash brought his best friend Liam. We then ate at Cafe Rio and then did presents and cake at home. We gave Kash money for his birthday because he is not much of a toy kid. He loves sports and has all the gear already. He was very excited to get the money. Kash loves sports, camping, and cooking. He can cook eggs, and grilled cheese better then I can. He loves to help out in the kitchen. He is taking cooking classes which he enjoys. He is currently on the swim team and playing baseball. He has been able to pitch at a couple games and enjoys that. He also likes to play catcher. He is always begging to ride his electric scooter out in the front or his bike. He is amazing on his roller blades and loves to throw the football. He really wanted a one wheel for his birthday but he is too young for one of those. He is always testing and challenging his athletic and physical abilities and scares me half to death with his speed and fearlessness. He went cliff jumping over the summer and went on the wolf tail drop at Great Wolf Lodge. He loves Kohen to pieces and finds so much joy playing with him. Kohen can say his name and it is so cute. They are so similar in that they never slow down and always want to be outside. Kash we are so proud of you and can't wait to see what you achieve!!
Ava is the best. She is kind, reliable and the most wonderful big sister. She is loving and helpful. She is growing into such a beautiful young women on the inside and out. We are so proud of her. She is in braces since March. She loves swimming, art, stitch and playing with her besties. We enjoyed Cheesecake Factory and an ice cream Oreo cake. She had a sleepover with her two best friends, Juliana and Isabella. We had In-n-Out, Tye-dyed shirts, ice cream sundaes and they just played. It was a great birthday!
For the twins birthday we decided Scott would take the boys minus Kohen on a trip of Levi's choice and I would take the girls on a trip of Lexi's choice. Levi choose Lake Arrowhead; Santa's Village and Lexi choose The Marriot at Ventura Beach. On their actual birthday they had their friends Simon and Wesley come over and celebrate. Lexi wanted a Rainbow Unicorn cake and Levi wanted a Transformers cake.
Lexi is really coming out of her shell. She still can be a little shy but once comfortable she is a talker. She is thoughtful and sweet. She is super girly. She changes her outfit roughly 5 times a day. She is stylish. She put on a tap show dance for us on her birthday.

Levi knows who he is and what he wants and wont let anyone tell him otherwise. He is strong willed and disciplined. He has become quite the swimmer and baseball. He is powerful and a protector of his siblings. He is competitive and hates to lose. He tests my patience daily but I couldn't imagine my life without my big hazel eyed boy.
