These two love the forest. Nora always eats the grass and sticks. Bella likes throwing the sticks and making friends on our forest walks.

Arrabella is 18 months!
We our so proud of our little girl, who turned 18 months old this past weekend on February 7, 2015!
Dear Arrabella!
You makes us so happy! We love you so much! You are funny, like your dad. You love to sing, you love books and cats and you love your Nora dog. We think you will be our animal lover. You also love being outdoors a lot, we always have the best time in the fairy forest together. You are growing so much and learning so much everyday! Now that you have the walking thing down, you are really starting to speak and even count and your words are becoming more and more clear, it's wonderful! Sometimes you can be a little shy and you make funny faces that crack us up. You really love your brother and he loves you too. You are very independent like your brother. I love that you are an independent little girl already, dad and I wish to nurture this as you grow into a young lady! You are a girly girl and you know what you want and you make sure your voice is heard. You are already asking me to paint your nails and you actually let them dry! Currently your very favorite things are your rose blanket from your God mother Sava, a leopard shark, and an owl. You love to eat; fruits, cheese, and sweets are your favorites, and crackers of course. Sometimes we call you "Toon" ( William was "Boon," but both nicknames came naturally and independently), Toonie, Bells, but mostly, Bella. You tell us everything - please keep doing that. You are amazing and we feel lucky to be your parents. We look forward to watching you change and grow into the lovely lady you will become. You are and always will be loved infinitely.

Sledding Videos
Here are some quick videos we took sledding in Boulder in early January 2015. They are hyperlapse videos so they go very quickly.
Rollerblading!
William's hockey career has officially begun! Here he is rollerblading for the first time the other night. He did great!
Here is William and his buddy Jake, one of his best friends from school.

Reader Boy!
William's reading has really taken off in the last couple months. He reads almost everyday. Here he is reading "Green Eggs and Ham" to baby sis. He can read the whole book with little to no help! We love the Dr. Seuss books! We are excited and proud of our reader boy!
Maui Ocean Center
Arrabella and I had a fun date at the Aquarium this past Thursday. It was fun to hang out with all the sea life, with my little mermaid.

Family Photos 2014
Here are some pics from our family photo shoot 2014. It was nice to get photos of our family of 4! It was a beautiful day but the sun came out and the wind came out and it made the picture taking a bit hard. We still managed to get some good ones.
Arrabella has some serious faces! She is so very sweet and loving so the grumpy cat faces crack me up!

William looking handsome! His hair was blowing everywhere, but he was a trooper.

We are just going for a walk on the beach, that's all. Check out Molokini and Kahoolawe in the back.

Sledding in Boulder
We got to go sledding during our time in Boulder. It was one of our favorite parts of the trip. It was a beautiful sunny day and the temps were not as frigid, it got down to -30 with the windchill at one point! Brrr!
Ready for blast off!
William and Chris trying out the turf.
Little snow bunnies!
Bella was really funny and kept laying down on the sled while we pulled her around.
What a fun day in the snow! We love snow!
