About Leos
A good blogger friend, ‘Another Maria‘ was kind enough to translate Justice and Jasmine’s horoscope based on their date and time of birth. Here is the result. The information was taken from “The Secret Language of Birthdays” by Gary Goldshneider & Joost Elffers. July Thirty-First: The Day of the Human Portrait Strengths: Observant, Expressive, Visual [...]
Birthday Bash
Jasmine and Justice’s 1st birthday is here and gone. We celebrated their big day at home with just a few good friends and family. I am sure they will not remember what happened and who was there, but take it from us, they had a good day. First of all we’d like to thank everyone [...]
Birthday Countdown
Can you believe it!? Justice and Jasmine are turning 1 year old this Saturday! It has been a looonnnnng year believe me. We have seen some great things from them. Their milestones include: Holding their head up within the first 3 months Eating baby food after 6 months Saying Dada and sometimes Mama after 9 [...]
A Day in the City
Last weekend we had a wonderful time in San Francisco. It was the first time Justice and Jasmine got to visit Grandma at her resting place and the first time that Ebru got a chance to hook up with her friend Filiz from Turkey. Our road trip started from Elk Grove. It was our first [...]
This is how we roll
We recently swapped out our Graco travel system car seats with new Britax Boulevard seats. Let me tell you, so far they have made a world of difference as far as Justice and Jasmine’s overall comfort and mood. First of all, the Graco seats were getting too small. They always seem to get fussy after about [...]
New Milestones
Jasmine and Justice are nearly 11 months old. It’s an exciting yet challenging time in our household. They are starting to stand and to make baby steps. They are also teething. The combination of their excitement of them standing with the pain of their teething makes for a confusing environment. We were there when Justice [...]
Wonder Twins
The fun thing about having twins is that you get to dress them up alike just for kicks. In our case we have a lot of blues and pinks. We also have a lot of matching ‘I love Daddy’ and ‘I love Mommy’ t-shirts. The combination of outfits are almost endless. At our first and [...]
Family Vacation
It has been a month and a half since my last post. I believe it’s the longest break I’ve ever taken from blogging since I started several years ago. In this time we have gone to Hell and back. It was time for a much needed vacation. Little did we know that this vacation was [...]
Fairytale Town
Last weekend the weather cooperated and we were able to take Jasmine and Justice out of the house. After breakfast we headed out to Fairytale Town in Sacramento. We both haven’t been there but have seen it on our way to the Sacramento Zoo and have heard of this place on TV. We were pleasantly [...]
11th Hour
Wow I can’t believe I’m going to be 30-something again in a few hours. Not! Mentally I don’t feel any older, but physically and emotionally, I have one foot in the grave lol. Today was a good pre-birthday day. It started with a massage, then lunch at Mikuni’s Sushi. Couldn’t ask for anything more. While [...]
Easter Thoughts
In a past life the ritual of Easter was very meaningful to me. From Ash Wednesday all the way to Easter I followed the traditional ceremonies that every good Catholic went through. However, the last 10 years or so has been different. Actually, I am different. It’s not that I’m a non-believer, it just that [...]
Kids Aren’t Cheap!
For those of you that know me I have always been a gadget freak! I love all new high tech innovations and gadgetry. I’ve always been one of the first to jump on the technology bandwagon. The toy industry is no different from my old world of toys and devices. What is different is that [...]
