 It's hard to believe Jessalyn will be two years old in October! Let's just say she is definitely showing those terrible two tendencies. She's turned into a little bully when you tell her not to do something. She will yell at you and hit you. It's really hard to tell her not to hit when she is already mad. And sometimes it's hard not to laugh. 
 She can also be the sweetest little girl ever. She asks puppy "You okay puppy?" Whenever she sneezes or makes a funny noise. When someone cries she says "Cry." And then looks very concerned. She also loves giving kisses. Mostly to daddy. She also always has to give puppy a kiss before we leave. One things for sure...she knows she's pretty awesome!

Royals Game

 James and Heather had tickets to a Royals game last night. Logan wasn't feeling well so Heather and Logan stayed home and Jordan, Jess and I took their place. 
 Jess was mostly excited because she got to hang out with her favorite RoRo.
 She cheered when everyone else cheered and danced whenever they played music. She also had lots of yummy treats like a sno cone and her first time trying cotton candy. She was very confused by it. When we handed it to her she thought it was something to wipe her hands with. When she saw Roman eat it she was even more confused. When she was finally brave enough to eat it, as soon as it touched her tongue she tried to take it out but it already dissolved. lol. Maybe when she is older she will be able to appreciate cotton candy. 



 She had fun sitting with daddy in the front row. Apparently she isn't afraid of heights like mommy is. I enjoyed the game one row behind them. I didn't want to get any closer to the edge!

 She's a super model in training. Striking up a pose for mommy to take a picture of. 
 Oh and the Royals shirt she is wearing is a size 6-9 months! lol. That's why it's a little short. I found it at a garage sale for fifty cents and figured I would use it for any future children. I pulled it out to see how it fit her for the game. It fit pretty good other than it was more of a belly shirt. But hey aren't crop tops back in style! Haha!

 Silly caleb! He was enjoying the rest of my funnel cake fries. Yum!
At the end of the game they had fireworks. Jess fell asleep as soon as the 4th of July fireworks started so this was technically her first time watching them. She was not a fan. These fireworks were extremely close and extremely loud. She cried and held onto me the whole time. As soon as they were done she was happy again.

HUGE AZ Vacation Photo Bomb!

 Our flight to Tucson got in at almost 12 am. Luckily Jess slept most of the way.  And she was pretty tired that next morning. 
 The first morning we woke up and gave cousin Ryan his belated birthday gift. 
 And got to snuggle with this little cutie Brayden.
 And then the first place I had to go was to Eegee's! I was so happy I caught the last three days of my favorite flavor of the month.
Watermelon!!

 They enjoyed their Eegee's almost as much as I did.
 Oh how I missed you delicious grinder and ranch fries!
I'm not lying when I say I had an Eegee everyday that I was there. Haha. 

We tried to get a picture of the three of us but obviously someone wasn't having it.




 Then we even got to spend some time with some other cousins. 
 They were having a blast jumping on the bed in the hotel room. 
 Little Roseleigh and Jess are about five months apart and had the same hair do. They share the same interests like baby dolls, purses and shoes. 
Jess got some tickles from Uncle Dom and thought it was pretty hilarious.


Then we got us older cousins together for some pictures. 
I was telling Monica's daughter how we used to play barbies and dolls together when we were her age. I even showed her some old pictures of us. Haha those were some good old days.
 And Just for the fun of it here is an old picture of the four of us cousins. I had a pretty awesome haircut didn't I?!
 The cousin fun was never ending. We spent some time with Jessalyn's other cousins. 
Leland absolutely loved her!
 We were lucky enough to be there for Annabelle's second birthday.
 Aren't these the two most adorable little girls you have ever seen!
 I love that their hair is so different from each others. Annabelle with her curly blonde hair and Jess with her stick straight brown hair. 
 I loved spending time with my nephews. I'm glad they missed me just as much as I missed them!
 Oh how I love my sweet little niece.

 The girls had fun playing outside and with Annabelle's new princesses. Jess was pretty sure she was going to take one home with her. 

 Jess is obsessed with any and every babies. So she was pretty stoked that she got feed this real life baby like she does her baby dolls. 

 She was constantly giving him kisses. 
I loved how my baby Brayden reminded me of my dad. His name totally suits him. Brayden Bernal (middle name after my dad) 
  These two had a blast together. Little Ryan was pretending to sleep and Jess thought it was pretty funny. There were a few moments when they didn't get along so well. Jess has no clue what it means to share so there was a little trouble there. Little Ryan even said "I'm not going to be your best friend anymore, Baby J." Haha. But they got over it fast. 



Jess started calling little Ryan "cuzzi". It was her way of calling him cousin. Everytime she would see him she would say "Hi cuzzi." in an excited voice. 





Of course Jess got some goodies from grammy. She got a new baby doll that sleeps when you put the binky in her mouth. She loves it so much. Thank you Grammy!

 Grammy and Jess were playing peek a boo with her new baby through the window. 
 This went on for a while. She kept telling Grammy "Again, again!"
 And she even got lots of Grammy cuddles. 
 I know this looks like a beer but it's not. It's an apple pop. Haha. 
 We stayed in a hotel for two nights and in true Tucson fashion there was one of these Mexican food carts right outside our hotel. So we walked over and got some lunch. 

 She finally let Tio hold her when we were waiting in line at Walmart and of course I needed to take a picture of it. When I was looking back at older pictures I noticed the last picture I have of him holding her was at the Walmart in Colorado. Haha. 


 It's always fun catching up with old friends. I love these girls. They are my old salon girls and some of my bestest friends. 
 Jess even made a new friend during dinner. Her and Kenz had lots of fun together. So much that Jess cried when we had to leave. 

 And then we had lunch at one of my favorite Restaurants Macayo's with one of my oldest best friends Rebecca. She brought Jess a beautiful Ariel doll that I loved just as much and a very cute outfits. Thanks, girl!
 And since I'm showing old pictures here is one of Rebecca and me when we were about 15? On our way to an NSYNC concert. One of the many concerts we've been to together. Including a few Hanson ones. Our favorite of course!
It's turning into a tradition whenever we are with Grammy to go to Chucke Cheese. 

 Jess thought the Chuck E. Cheese band was pretty cool until we got up close of course. Those guys still freak me out. 




 We got the cousins together one more time to play. The girls ate some cheese together and we had a little mini photo shoot. 

 Then we had a little dance party.
 Followed by some fun in Annabelle's princess castle!

 They had a blast!

Jago and I took some pictures together. And I'm still in shock by how grown up this kid is!
 Jess had some fun with him too.
 While Annabelle played with her baby doll.
 Gramma even got to hold Jess!

 So happy I got to spend some time with my BFF/ sis in law Smatha aka Samantha. haha. 
 back and Tia and Tio's house Jess had a blast with Dallas and the kitty

 She loved this little Kitty but mad at her a few times and told her "No kitty! No kitty! No kitty!" While pointing her finger.



 She put this bib on herself and wanted to sit in this high chair. So Grammy gave her some snacks and some water. Jess thought she was pretty cool in there.


 It was a busy, eventful week. We were excited to get home to daddy and puppy. Luckily the plane wasn't full on our first flight to Dallas so Jess had her own seat. She had a blast buckling and unbuckling her belt.
Well if you made it to the end of this long post, thanks for looking!
