Fall weather = Park weather!

Since the weather has been nice in the morning for the last week, I decided to brave the park with Sakura. She LOVES (if there was a stronger word I'd use it) to swing and she was super excited when we got out of the car and headed toward the picnic table for a bite before we played. She spotted the playground and said "Weeeee Weeeee Weeeee". Yes, it melted my heart. So we sat at the picnic table enjoying our pumpkin muffin tops that we picked up on our way, then it was off to swing and play. Sakura would love nothing more than to swing the day away - maybe she'll get a swingset for her birthday? We'll see.

Pumpkin muffin tops are delicious!
Let's Go Mom!

Exploring....

Almost running to the swings (note she's got her sunglasses in her hand).

Swinging - Weee, Weee, Weee - Sakura said it over and over.

As you can tell by that smile, Sakura truly loves to swing!

Now with my sunglasses!

This picture cracked me up!

This time Sakura walked in herself - bittersweet! It's amazing to see how much she has grown and changed in just a couple months - the last time we went, she was barely toddling - now she just about runs in...she walked up and down the different areas as you'll see below.

Looking around, what should we do?

Climbing is always fun!

This way...

She stumbled a bit and she does NOT like stuff on her hands, had to pause to get the dirt off.

Leaving the playground.....

Is NEVER fun! Ugh - sorry Sakura but it's getting hot outside :(

Hair Cut .... just a few bangs

I've debated and debated and it came down to the final seconds until I could actually make a decision...and Sakura got a few bangs in the end.... it's almost time for Christmas pictures so we figured we'd go with a new do for Sakura :)

In true Sakura fashion, she was great for her haircut, observing everything being done, sitting still through the whole deal. As always we are quite proud of our little cherry blossom!

Big Girl ready for her haircut!

Our cutie-pie in a cute car cape ready to go.

Hmmmm, what's going on here?!

Daddy catching the hair

SO...What do you think?!

A little blow dry even.

SO pretty!

Thanks Auntie Becky for my haircut!

Then we went to dinner at Burgers & Beer before heading home for some of Sakura's favorite....

Queso Fundito! YUM!

Comfortable?

Sure doesn't look like it to me...but Sakura slept just fine!

Fun with cousins

We had an enjoyable time with my nephews and niece here. Since they live in Tucson we actually get to see them and Sakura loves spending time with her cousins.

Sharing Katie's iPod!

Time for pizza - Sakura gets right in there with the big kids. She loves them very much and hates to see them leave.

Enjoying a cracker at the pizza place.

Girly Girl?

Sakura is a girly girl....we think :) She LOVES these beads and wears them all the time. She finds them in her toys and puts them on, she'd wear them all day long....but if you look closely at her beads there is a tag on them....

Sakura wearing her pretty beads.

She even watches TV with them on :)

Need a closer look at that tag I'm talking about?????


LOL - so is Sakura really a girly girl?

Dean and I got these beads a few years ago at the SEMA show in Las Vegas, Dean had them in his office and brought them home several months ago, knowing that Sakura would love them!

The Big Swirl

So Thursday I went to Verizon to have my new phone activated and transfer the contacts, when we got there, I heard Sakura saying "Mmmm Mmmm" - I just figured she must be hungry or something until I got her out of her carseat and I realized that she thought we were going to The Big Swirl that is a couple of doors down - Oops! We didn't stop then, but today we went.
Sakura has it all figured out - she "runs" right to the bowls and heads over to the pumps - it was pretty funny.

Luckily they have non-fat, otherwise I think we'd all be gaining weight!

Here is Sakura headed to the pumping station ......

Yummy!

All done!
