First Monday of all!

Last Monday, it was just a regular day to me... This Monday is a BUSY BUSY BUSY day!! Getting used to new routines can be fun, but tiring at the same time....I wish I could close my eyes and forward the time 1 month so I can know everybody by their names in my job and know exactly what I need to do, and so I can already trust Mia and Mimi's teachers, and simply be used to our new life. Of course, I cant do it, so I need to be patient...When 2 adults and 3 kids needs to take showers, get changed, get backpacks and lunchboxes (with snacks plus lunch),...

And she is gone! :(

We knew this day was going to come, but we just didnt know it was going to be so fast... There are so many things that we want to do that we havent done, and so many things that we want to talk, and just SHARE.... Cara left today... It was sad, but thanks God it was fast. We got there a bit late because we first stopped by a mall so Cara could buy something from the country, and the line was looooooooong... By the time she was going to finish the line, there wasnt going to be time for us to hang out, and we had a birthday party to go to, so...

Happy Birthday Ernesto!!!

Even though today was pretty busy about Mia's party, the main event of the day was hubby's birthday. He turned 29 years old today. He has changed so much since we met, but he is still the same sweet, fun, loving, family oriented, hard working guy that I felt in love with 11 years ago. Im really proud to be his wife, and that I hope to be by his side while he turns many and many more years. After the party was done, and with the same mess intact...

Mia's 2nd Birthday Party!

The more I think about it, the happier I am. Mia's party was a total success!!! A really big part of it was Cara's invaluable help!! The party wouldnt have been possible without her!! We were suppose to order some snacks or order a pizza (we werent sure), but the night before Cara offered herself to cook... She actually loves baking, and she had tons of ideas (easy for her, unknown to me). We had a water problem with some broken pipes in the neighborhood,...

A true miracle!

I was having the worst time with my eyes, and I went to the nurse office to ask her about some drops... She gave me some drops and I was kinda better, so I was relief.... Around 15 minutes later I was having the same problems to see... It was itching, painful, teary, and it was difficult to focus (especially to read or to use the computer)... So, in my first day of work, I had to leave EARLY!!! I was embarrased, but there was nothing I could do about it!! I called my mom, and she offered to take me to her eye doctor. I can describe what I was...

Day of firsts!!!!!

- First time that I go to work outside of my house after I was pregnant with Camila (over 2 years ago)- First time that Mia goes to school- First time that Mimi goes to daycare- First time that we need to pack 3 bags and 3 lunchboxes to get ready- First time that we wake up the girls and interrupt their dream for them to get ready for something (we have done that for Gaby before, but not for Mia or Mimi)So many firsts and so little pictures.......

Out and about

There was so many things to do for our big day tomorrow, plus showing the city to Cara, AND a bunch of last minutes things for Mia's party on Saturday.In the morning we went to pick up Cara's ticket to Cubana Air (as she is going to Cuba for a week), and we also went to meet the preschool for Mia. We had lunch at KFC, and then we went shopping for some things for the party...Cara insisted on squeezing with the girls on the back instead of me (notice...

Big change in our lives!

As some of you may remember, I asked for you guys to pray for a thing that was going to change our lives.. That "thing" never happened but it looks that God's plans were different!!I love my girls more than anything in the world, but I reached the point (a few months ago) when I realized that I need more adult interaction.... I need to keep my mind busy with something that doesnt involve a conversation about diapers, baby food, drooling, birthdays..... I also think that Camila NEEDS interaction with other kids, and needs independence from me.Im...

Off to the beach!!

We got a day pass from Barcelo Talanquera Beach Resort, and we REALLY had a great time!!! We first went to the beach, which was Mimi's first time, and she loved the sand and the water.... Then we ate, and then we went to the pool. While on the pool we were taking turns to play volley, while one of the adults was taking care of the girls.... It was really a great day!!!Pictures will tell:We havent been much to the beach lately, so Mia kinda didnt...
