Fynnlan is 6 years old today! It is hard to believe that our baby boy could possibly be this big already :)
Here are some things from the past year!
We are kicking off Arevalo Birthday Season with a big happy third birthday to Jackson! It is so hard to believe that he is already 3. So much has happened in the past year, and Jackson has grown leaps and bounds!
Read MoreOur Little Luca is one year old today! We welcomed Luca to our family in the peak of the pandemic in the epicenter of it all, New York. I still have vivid memories of walking past pop-up morgues on my way to my doctor appointments; t felt so scary and uncertain to be bringing him into this crazy world.

A couple of years ago, I wrote this blog post, sharing some tips and tricks for traveling with little ones. Pandemic aside, we travel a lot. In the last 7 years, we’ve traveled to 20 states, and 5 countries with our four children (and a couple international trips without kids!). Ron & I both loved to travel before ever meeting each other, and we didn’t want to stop once we had children. Of course travel looks very different now than it did 10 years ago. I’ll be honest, it’s a lot of work, it’s stressful at times, and not always restful. (Am I selling you on traveling with kids yet?) But at the end of the day, it’s so worth it. The memories we’ve shared with our children, the cultures they’ve experienced, the sheer beauty of this world, are all indescribably worth it.
Read MoreLuca is 48 weeks old, and wow has it been a long time since I have written a blog post for him! I swore I’d stick to my weekly posts for him, just like I did his siblings, but then again, I was never in the middle of a pandemic with the others! Life has been busy as usual, and we’ve added some new things to our plate too.
Read MoreLuca is 37 weeks old, and a blog post is way overdue for him!! We’ve come to the end of Birthday Palooza (5 of the 7 of our birthdays are in a 2.5 month span!!), so now I have a little more time sit down and write!
Read MoreToday Roman would be 3 years old. Usually for the kids’ birthday blog posts, I’d be going through my phone, picking out all of the memorable photos and videos from their last year. But I don’t have anything to show of him for the past year. Instead, I’m just left with my memories of the holes we felt this year and my tears.
Read MoreHow is our baby 7 years old?! That doesn’t even seem possible! Another year has flown by with Aly. We could not be more proud of the young lady she is becoming.
Read MoreLuca is 31 weeks old, and I am slacking on my posts haha. We’ve mostly just been hanging at home and the beach these past few weeks.
Read MoreFynnlan is 5 years old today! This birthday has me feeling all the feels today. How is he FIVE?! A whole hand? A high-five? While he’s grown a lot and so much has changed with him, some things are still the same.
Read MoreLuca is 27 weeks old!
This week he had his 6 month check up; he is now 15 lbs and 25 inches. He has definitely slowed way down on the weight gain, but still a healthy little guy!

Luca Quinn is 26 weeks old and also 6 months old today! Luca has lived equal parts in New York, Oklahoma, and California, two months in each place. That is so wild to me, I certainly never imagined that would be the case! I sometimes get a little sad that he did not get to experience NYC at all, but I dream of the days will bring him back to visit his first home!
