We did a little bit of exploring Baja yesterday. The kids loved the bumpy off-roading and we enjoyed many renditions of Danny’s “bumpy rugged road song”. If you are ever privileged to hear it you should know some history behind it. It was written in February last year by Jason, Kyle and Danny while they were taking the bumpy road short cut to the park. It is sung exclusively by boys cuz girls can’t sing it right.
Here’s Carly picking wild flowers.
I just discovered this picture, its from a couple months ago. We went out to our favorite little neighborhood restaurant to celebrate a friend’s birthday. They serve cactus with the chips and salsa, have great margaritas and I guess the waiters all noticed my napkin obsession as they bring me about 100 napkins as soon as I sit down. 
Carly cooling off in the igloo with her cousin Keren who’s visiting us for a couple weeks. The Santa Ana’s blew in and it was in the 90s and extremely dry. Carly & Keren are both 2 and get along great.
Carly had an accident in her pants and I was trying to encourage her to use the potty. “Carly, you know princesses don’t go poop in their pants, they always use the potty.” Then Danny piped in, “You know Mom, I’ve read some books about princesses and I never saw anything about them going poop, I don’t think princesses go poop at all.”
Our princess received her first rose today at Costco. She was admiring the roses and smelling each one and the employee working nearby took one and gave it to her. She was so thrilled, she walked all over the store with it showing people, “Look, my rose, Carly’s rose, it’s pink”, which garnered her even more attention. Notice Danny checking out the electronics.
Danny informed us today, “You know after thinking about it I don’t want to be a fireman anymore I want to be a garbage man because they drive bigger trucks.”
