Elias is so handsome and is getting so big.  I was trying to get his pictures taken but he wouldn’t sit still for a second, so i just followed him everywhere. News: In September, he is going to be a big brother.  He or she will be a cutie for sure!

My Boys Play Together

Liam has been sitting for a little while now but he’s gotten more and more steady.  So I sat him by evan this morning and I was watching them I realized it was a picture perfect moment.  It was one of the first times that they were actually playing together… well, I mean as much as Liam can since he is still little.  The older he gets the more they will do this.  I felt a little bad for Evan though because he would build a castle with the blocks only to have them knocked down by Liam.  ”No, No, baby brother,” he would say.

Liam’s First Food

Filed under: Liam

Liam is seven months now!  So FAST!  Anyway, I waited a few more months to start feeding evan solids but it seemed Liam was still hungry sometimes.  As you can see he was mostly interested in the spoon and not the food.

Later we gave him a little avocado at grandma’s house and he just wanted to chew on the spoon again.  He’s so cute.



Amy’s Baby Shower

We’ve been waiting for baby Ethan for a very long time now and we are so excited that he is coming soon!!!  We just can’t wait to meet him.  I wonder what he will be like and who he will look like.  I’m sure Lenny, Amy and Abby are wondering the same thing.  Amy had her baby shower at the end of March.

Isn’t this Hilarious?!  The helmet belongs to Evan and earlier today we were having such a blast outside.  My parents, Carlo, aunt Nancy, aunt Nieves and I were outside with the kids.  Evan was riding around on his trycicle, which he calls his motorcycle.  He was on ultra energy mode.  I got on his fire engine, which I was way too big for, and followed him around pretending to chase him.  I couldn’t keep up.  Later, aunt Nancy put Liam on the Trike with the helmet and he looked sooo funny!  I didn’t have my camera then but I did have my camcorder.  Here he is once inside and once  I got my camera out of the car.

This is my niece Elle, but I call her Birdie.  Estee and I were pregnant together and so she is a little older than Liam.  She is 6 months old and super adorable.  She is huggable and delicious! She looks like strawberries but she tastes like butter.

Anica’s Maternity Shoot
March 24, 2009, 12:08 pm
Filed under: Children Pictures, Maternity

Anica is my good friend who is due any day.  Little Levi Phoenix will be a friend of Liam’s since they will be a couple months apart.  Demi is closer to Evan’s age.  He already takes her by the hand and says, “Come on… follow me.”  She gets a little timid.  I think he might be a little too forward.

Anyway, her and her family are a huge blessing to my family and we are so thankful to have them as part of our lives.  Getting this shoot done was funny because we were looking for a spot one day and when we found it, it had gotten dark on us so we weren’t able to do it.  We came back the next day but were running behind and I just about ran out of light again.  But here is what I did capture.  Anica is gorgeous and Demi is quite the little model!!!

30

Yes, I’m 30.  And I’m OK with that.  I’m purposing to never complain about getting older.  I purpose to look on the bright side - always.  It makes for a much more pleasant existence.  

I’m thankful for life and all of it’s blessings.  

So what did I do?

Matt and my family threw a surprise birthday party for me.  And the most important people of my life were there… well, almost.  Carlo was out of town.

I didn’t take pictures of the party but earlier in the day the boys and I went to cheer daddy on at his football game.  Here are some pics from earlier in the day.
