New friends and a lazy Sunday

Sorry it took me a while to post this... this week has been HECTIC. I got called for Jury Duty last Friday and was picked to be on a jury on Monday, so I've been racing to work in the morning, then leaving to go to court by 10am in downtown LA, then racing home to grab Amanda before daycare closes.

Anyway, on Saturday we had 3 of my old friends from KFI, their spouses and their kids over. We haven't seen them in over two years now, so we went from one kid last time to FIVE this time, with another due in December! Wow! Amazing how fast families grow. Anyway, there were 5 kids all 4 and under in the house. They all had a blast! It was so much fun to see how they all interacted and played.. their favorite was Amanda's ball hopper that spits balls into the air, then they fall back down a spiral only to blown back up again. Ironic since it's recommended for kids 9 months & up, and no one was interested in it until they were older!

Anyway, here's a pic of when the three girls were playing with it in the hallway, with one of the boy's head at the bottom, approaching them:



Eventually everyone else cleared out and just Amanda & Sammy were left playing with it. They're very close in age (Sammy was born just a few days after Andrew, so they're about 6 months apart) and seemed to get along wonderfully. Amanda was asking about Sammy all the next day :)



The next morning, I got some shots of Amanda lounging on the couch:
