Paisley, Peyton turns 4 & the 4th of July

 This is June 12th- this is the first day Paisley sat up on her own, we were sitting at the park near our apartment in Sunny Isles (we were living at Avila Condominiums 200 177th dr apt 101 Sunny Isles Fl) I sat her down with a bunch of toys to see if she would sit with me behind her but when I backed away a little, she was doing it all on her own and she has been doing it ever sense. She was a little over 7 months old ;).

 June 15th was Peyton's 4th Birthday, We had some free movie tickets so Saturday the day before his birthday we went and saw Dragon Trainer 2 at the theater. It was such a good movie and so fun to hang out as a family. We had just moved into our home and had tons to do but wanted to spend some time as a family. Paisley was so unbelievably good during it, she played with toys, she slept, she even watched for a couple of minutes.  A very fun afternoon together.

 For his birthday we were having dinner with a family in our new ward Dan and Christy Summers. It happened to be Father day as well but they were nice enough to let us spend it with them. We only had two small gifts to open and the cupcakes that I made but he was very sweet and was happy for he got. Later in the week Grandma and Grandpa Orullian sent lots of really fun gifts that he still plays with. Peyton loves anything and everything small. They sent tiny tiny  animals, tiny cups, batman with a little motorcycle along with other fun things. We are blessed to have such amazing family! It is crazy how big he is,  Peyton we love you so much, you are full of energy and very funny, you are such a good little helper and I know you are going to do great things with your life!

 We spent the morning of the 4th of July at the grocery store and then the pool with Tex's senior resident Shannon and her little boy Noah she brought lots of red, white and blue snacks that were way yummy. Later we went to our friends The Summers for dinner and fire works. We went to Dan's work and watched them off the roof, we got eaten by misqitos but it was really magical to watch from the roof of a building. I am so thankful to live free and be and become who I want, it is because of the men and women who fight for our freedom that this is possible  and this year more then most I felt so blessed and thankful for it. My mom sent this fun wood fire work project for me to paint, I had the best time doing it and I think they turned out really cute. The Cookies were really yummy too. I found them on Pinterest, a cake mix, read and blue sprinkles and bam you are done.

Moving to Homestead Florida

  So we finally moved to Homestead on the 13th of  June but we don't have internet so I am at a friends house trying to multi task all the things I need to do on the internet. I am going to try and catch up on the blog.We got our pictures back from my friend Kendra, I love them! She captured our family perfectly. The pictures speak for themselves. 

I find my self feeling so over whelmed with my three kids some times for no reason. I feel so awful at the end of the night thinking to my self it wasn't really that bad Brittany. I think about how much I love them and how thankful I am to be a Mom. I wish I could be calmer during the day when the day is getting crazy and there are messes every where. These Pictures help me remember how blessed I am.

 June 13th we moved down to Homestead our address is 23752 SW 117th pl Homestead Fl 33032  although I miss my life in Sunny Isles/ Aventura and we miss the beach I am so happy to have room to spread out in. We are renting and feel like its a huge blessing that we didn't buy. It has been crazy and even though it has been a month I still don't feel like we are fully moved in. Tex has no time to help cause he is always at the hospital and getting home so late. When he does get home I feel bad asking him to do anything cause he is so tired, so it is a work in progress.

Childrens museum/ Paisley is 6 months.

( Monday June 2nd 2014) We went to the Miami children's museum. We were able to get a free pass from the library, we were there for about 4 hours. We played for a while stopped and had lunch at the Subway they had in the building and then were right back at it. They had everything from pretending to be a doctor/fireman/ cop to fishing on a private charter boat, me and Tate recorded an album together while Peyton watched a puppet show. Tex started residency the next day so it was a way fun day to spend together before life gets a tad crazy.

 June 2nd is also the day Paisley turned 6 months! It is seriously so crazy to me that she is 6 months old. She is getting so much hair and the cutest chubby cheeks that I absolutely love to kiss every second. She is unbelievably wiggly but has a smile that can turn any frown upside down. She still loves the shower and being held (a lot). We are still working on sitting up along with introducing some peas, squash, sweet potatoes, pears and bananas to her rice cereal. She doesn't really like them by themselves, she gets the shivers. It has to be mixed with the rice cereal something I think is pretty funny. I still love that any where and every where I go people stop  to see her and talk to her. They say " O my goodness she is so beautiful!!" My little Paisley always has a very serious look on her face, she is alert and aware of everything that is going on around her. We love her to pieces.

 

 (Thursday June 5th)- Peyton and Paisley went to sleep around 8:30 and Tate was not tired so I let him stay awake we roasted marshmallows and had some s'mores. I have a few one on one's with Peyton going to the benches but few with Tate, it was so fun that he was up hanging with us! I love my Tater bug.

(Saturday June 7th)- We went back down to Homestead to look for places to rent.  We stopped at burger king for a quick lunch. In and out of homes sitting in the car driving can be a lot for these little guys but they were awesome. We put offers down on a few homes and heard back yesterday ((Monday June 9th) that one of them accepted our offer. We are hoping to move in this up coming Friday. Yay!! :)

Quick update.

 The last few weeks have been so discouraging and crazy! I have not been able to sit down at night and write my thoughts. We found out a week ago that our loan was denied, so we do not get to buy the town home that we wanted to buy. The day we found out we felt so defeated and were both so confused. Sense then we have been looking everyday for a place to rent, we didn't know this but you have to put offers on rental just like you would buying a home, we put an offer on a a town home to rent in the same area and were going to wait until we heard but decided we should keep looking and put multiple offers so we hopefully have some options. All these pictures are a week or more old but wanted to document them any way. These cute pictures of Paisley  were taken (May 24th 2014) in the car. We were running errands and she was being a little cutie.

 These next 4 pictures were taken on (Monday May 26th 2014) It was memorial day, we had some friends over and went swimming and had lunch. These two  cute girls Lyndsay Howell and Kendra Larsen I just met when we got back in February. There husbands are in the podiatry program as well. Love them both so much! Lyndsay has been a huge source of strength to me over the last few weeks.

 Kendra made this cute head scarf, she has a shop called Puddles and Pails and I love her stuff.
  

 On Tuesday May 27th the next day, we moved all our stuff from our storage unit in Hollywood into our apartment. It is cramped, messy, cluttered and I hate it! I am having the hardest time living in such a cluttered mess but am trying to look for the best in each day.  We have had a lot of challenges over the last few months but have also had so much fun as well. Tomorrow I will put a few pictures on of our fun time at the children's museum. For now we are sill in a mess and are anxiously waiting for tomorrow to see if some one accepted one of our applications to rent.
