Happy 7th Birthday!!

Here are the pics we do every year on each kid's birthday.  We only choose one pose to to keep the memory of all the shots, so the best I can do it take a picture of the computer screen.

Marco had a small family gathering.  He chose his Angry Bird cake just for the bird catapult Im sure.

The candle were sparkler ones, but they really ended up being trick candles because they kept relighting themselves after he blew them out.  Now that was a funny surprise.

Had to include this pic, because do anyone notice the baby getting her own plate.  Yep, she could care less about all the candle blowing and such.  Bring on the cake, she says!!

Can anyone say Taekwando? hhiiiiiiii-yyyyaaa

Joaquin has been asking to play soccer and since you always learn with the first one, we decided a long time ago that he would start team sports at 5 yrs old.  But one day a groupon deal popped up for a taekwando place right down the street from us.  So we decided to let him try 6 weeks of it to see if he liked it.  (it also came with his cool uniform)  Little did we know how much he would enjoy it, but also learn how EXPENSIVE it is!  Even Marco said he was a bit jealous of Joaquin because he thought it looked fun.  Well, at least we have the uniform for him to "practice" in at home.

 

The many faces of Camila

   

Yogurt, dogs, and bath OH My!

Here's the yogurt.  Man, this kids loves yogurt!

Here's the dog.  Camila has now started to request her "dawl" (doll), "bea" (bear), and her "da" (dog) when she takes a nap or goes to sleep at night.  Once they are all in the crib with her, she lays down and throws her arms over them and goes to sleep.

And here's the stink face.  Not sure what caused this one.

 

And of course bath time fun.

Laundry shenanigans

Laundry day comes around once a week in the Patino household.  And these kids think it is roll around in the warm clothes and dress up time while I am trying to get everyone to fold their respective stacks.  Here Marco is trying on my work pants.  Man they look huge!

And again, Marco giving me a booty shot.  I sure hope my butt doesn't look like a bubble butt when I wear them!

Crazy Quinny with all his clothes. He has my jeans on in this pic and they dont look as big

 

Of course he can't be outdone, so he has to get in a backside shot as well

Cousins at play, and other randomness

Camila and Alex

Camila about to swipe the toy from Alex

Yep, there she goes..

Alex joyful in triumph as he kept the toy from Camila's grasp
