The Elizondo Family: October 2009

Tuesday, October 13, 2009

This is a picture that I took of Maddie when she was 2 weeks old. She is doing very good. I can't believe how big she is getting. The kids are in love with her! Ryan said to me yesterday "mom, I love my baby, I just love her, I just love her so so much." He is such a great big brother. Katie and Allie are such big helpers. The joy of having so much help around the house makes the 4th child so much easier.

Ryan the Race Car

Ryan is the little caboose on our family train unless his dad gets way and we try for one more. It has been a blast having a little boy around the house and believe me, he is all boy. Give him a lipstick and he will turn it in a gun, give him a tiara and will hook it to his back as a rocket. He drives or launches everything he can get his hands on. He loves depicting the make of any truck in sight and especially likes to find GMC's like his daddy's. He loves mowing the lawn with daddy, watching movies, playing in the water, bossing his sisters, playing with his cousins and pretending he is a rocket ship. When you ask him what his name is he says "Ryan the Racecar." He is the life of the house

Precious Allie!

Allie is the sweetest little thing. She is always there with a sqeezee and kiss for anyone who needs one. She has been keeping very busy this year. She loved kindergarten and is looking forward to 1st grade. She loves to read and paint. Allie had a great time in cheer leading especially during performances when she got to wear makeup. She is the socialite of the family staying busy having tea parties in the playhouse with all her friends. Allie's spends most of her free time with her best friend in the whole world, her big sister Katelyn. The two of them can play Barbies for ever. Mom was her PTA President and got to volunteer in her a class a ton. This summer she plans to stay busy with swimming lessons, bugging Ryan, Ross Park, asking questions, opening her own business doing hair & selling "beezwax" (gossip) and playing with her friends!

Princess Katelyn

Katelyn is getting so big and is as beautiful as ever. She just completed 2nd grade and is looking forward to 3rd grade. She was asked to be part of the gifted and talented program at her school and really enjoyed it. She had a great time cheerleading this year and really became a great performer. She enjoys playing with her friends, reading, watching The Disney Channel, taking pictures, singing, WII and playing Barbies with her best pal Allie. She is looking forward to lots of swimming this summer and having fun with her friends
