Surprise, surprise, it’s been a busy week capped off by some of our favorite visitors!
I need to start with this series of photos that Megan took of the kids in their new, cool vehicles shirts. Shirts that Steven may want to wear every day if he can.
As he does, Sammy was still napping when Steven and Amaya woke up. That resulted in a Steven/Amaya photo shoot to start. Such happy kids.
But we’re never complete until the Sam Man joins us. Happy, happy, happy!
Amaya is such a ham. This sequence of photos cracks me up every time I look at it.
She’s my best girl. <3
Skipping ahead to visitors, it started with Nana on Friday afternoon. We love when Nana visits! This visit was a special treat because Nana arrived earlier than usual and was already in The Land of Cheltenham when SSA woke up from their naps.
Our Friday night & Saturday morning fun was playing with our new magna tiles. I suspect these will be a hit for a long time to come. Amaya, in particular, can spend quite a long time building her tile towers.
Daddy built Steven an airplane!
After naps, there was even more fun when Aunt Ouize, Nancy and Abe arrived!!
Today, Sunday, Grandma Sunshine and Aunt Annette joined in the fun. Here’s the whole gang.
Amaya, wearing her magnatile bracelets.

My girl is almost always by my side these days.
Snuggles for Grandma and Sammy.
Sammy, sporting his pony.
Abe and Amaya. Best buds.
We had a great time opening presents. Amaya sees gifts and says, “Ha-ka.” She’s going to be very confused on her birthday!
Enjoying our new musical instruments.
Checking out our awesome work bench.
New easel!
Also a make-shift gymnasium.
We love our family!
Earlier in the week, Megan had her own fun with Steven, Sammy and Amaya.

Pizza night! Ask my kids what’s in their belly and they’ll say, “pizza,” regardless of what they ate.
There were no school classes last week. Instead, the class met up at Funtastic on Tuesday and Jungle Java on Wednesday. We’re lucky that the teachers are always willing to help Megan.
Steven, this week!
This is what you get when you ask Steven to smile. It’s too much!
Very seriously reading his vehicles book.
Sammy, this week!
I think Sammy is going through a growth spurt. He’s eating a TON and sleeping, sleeping, sleeping.
Sleeping in all different wacky positions!
Amaya, this week!
Pony!
For this photo, Amaya cleared everything off the ottoman and asked Megan to take her photo. My sassy girl.
Playing with her train.
Sweetie girl.
Have a great week!
