May 2012

 May was out of control busy, busy, busy! The first weekend in May Ayla had six performances for the Cinco de Mayo celebrations.  She was in absolute heaven and danced her little heart out!  Even though she was the smallest and youngest in the group that didn't stop her from "keeping" up with everyone else.  I was so excited for her and managed to get her to all her performances despite the fact that we were going to be moving within the next 10 days.

 This girl has always loved corn on the cob.  Especially Mexican style!
 My dear friend Nicole came during the week that we were moving and was such a huge help in entertaining the kids and helping me clean the rental house we were moving into.  Now this rental came at the last minute.  Our search for a house was extremely time consuming and stressful sinced we were moving at peak renter's moving season.  There were so many applicants on each property that we truly didn't even know if we were going to have a place to live coming closing day on our house. Luckily we found one just 10 days before our closing date.  However, it didn't come easy. The property owner's told us we could have the place if we doubled our deposit (so that meant we had to pay first and last month's rent and match that same amount for the pet deposit) since we had a Great Dane.  Of course we had no choice but couldn't help feeling totally taken advantage of since we know Kusko is 100% trained and very, very seldom leaves his bed.
 My dear Ayla already says things that are quite shocking! One day she came up to me with her barbi and says "Mama, it's you."  Quite sweet and of course I took it as a complete compliment (she must have her beer goggles on).
We were so excited when Tia Vanina had her baby May 22nd! Ayla and Ahrian finally had a cousin on Milton's side of the family. They named him Tyler Ashton Jepperson. 
Ayla was very happy to hold Tyler!
