Family Outings, Keira's First Hair Cut, Jackson, Etc.

Where has the time gone again??? Jackson is already 2 months old and I haven't blogged at all since he was born. Having 2 kids is A LOT of work. More than I imagined. Trying to juggle a 2 1/2 year old and a newborn is fun and challenging to say the least!

A few weeks ago we took our first outing of the summer to Gilroy Gardens. It was unseasonably cold for June. We bought season passes so we will be back many more times!

Here are Abby and Keira at Gilroy Gardens

My Aunt Helen is currently visiting and we have been lucky enough to go on a few outings since she has been here. We went to the Chidren's Discovery Museum in San Jose and the kiddos loved it! They have a special room for kids 4 and under and we spent most of our time there. The kids were able to play with sand, do art projects and explore on their own. I spent most of my time feeding Jackson! ;-) We then went to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It has been years since I have been there. Jason took the day off of work so that he was able to enjoys Keira's first trip to the aquarium.

Here are My Mom, Dad, Sister and Aaron (not looking at the camera!) at the Monterey Bay Aquarium

Here are Keira and Aaron playing in a kids discovery area at the aquarium

Our most recent outing with the family was to the Sacramento Zoo on the hottest day ever! Even Jackson was hot!!! We didn't spend too much time there but it was fun. Here is a cute picture of Jas and Keira on the carousel at the zoo.


On Wednesday, June 17th Keira got her first haircut! It took her forever to get hair, so we didn't see the need to trim it. Well, at 2 1/2 it was finally time. Here are some pictures of Keira getting her hair cut!



And last but not least... our little Jack Jack is growing so fast! I can not believe that he is 9 weeks old already! He smiles a little now and is becoming more interested in watching things and especially playing in his bouncy seat. Here is our cutie Jackson!


I hope to write and post pictures more often... free time is very limited with kids! I will try though, I promise!!!
