Camila's updates....

I have been trying to convice Camila's *preschool* that she is ready to start potty trainning. She has been waking up with a dry diaper mostly every night since 4 weeks ago, and she has even slept without diapers sometimes.She is showing she is ready in every way. I read a great article about readiness, and she complies with everything. The teacher was saying that it was too soon to start as she just have been in the school for 2 months and she...

Mother's Play in Gaby's school

Gaby's school had her play for Mother's Day today. They had a gorgeous set up in the school's amphitheater. There is a long outdoor walk to get there, and the rain ruined it! They had to improvise and do the performances in the Library. The kids were disappointed, but they did a great job.I got there 10 mintutes late, but thank God it was just starting when I got there. Gaby was so excited when she saw me and she couldnt stop laughing. She had this...

Flower Food Shopping....

"La Famosa" is a caribbean brand very similar to Goya. The owners of Gaby's school are also owners of "La Famosa", and hubby got a basket of "La Famosa" products two days ago. We were food shopping and when we got back, we put the bags in the dinning room (right next to the basket), and we started freshing up before putting everything away in the kitchen.Looks like Camila thought that we put them there so she could play "Food shopping", and she...

I dont know if you guys remember the last time my girls were playing with powder.... Well, today we had the same game with a different playe...

The head of a princess!

I posted a thread in a board that I frequent asking for moms who makes grosgrain bowbands, and a few girls answered. I decided to go with Missy Prissy Bow Boutique, even though her style is really different to mine. She is more into lots of fluff and Im more into plain stuff, but she assured me that she was going to make something that I was going to love, and she was just right!!Im in love with what she did, and even though I misunderstood the...

Mimi's Party Outfit

A couple of months ago, I ordered a custom outfit from Blueberry Daisy, for Mia's Flip Flop Party. I was so pleased with Laura (the owner) and I knew I had to order from her again.The theme for Mimi's party is going to be Hugs and Stitches, and I wanted something related to the theme. Our first idea was to have a ginham dress to match the borders of the theme, but I wasnt completely happy about it, especially we were not sure about which embroidery...

Dominican Mother's Day!

Today was Mother's Day in Dominican Republic, and I spent a beautiful day. I actually took the day off from work (yaay me), and spent the whole "family day" and enjoy it to the maximum!!! After a day with just us, we went to my mom's for dinner and I got to share some time with my mommy, too.We didnt had time to stop by my grandma's house and take our generational picture (as we normally do every Mother's Day), but we will do it in the next couple...

Family Celebration...

We are planning on making Mimi's Baptism and birthday party in 2 more weeks, but yesterday we did a small celebration.... Just us.The theme for her Birthday Party is Hugs and Stitches, but as she loves Elmo, we decided to put something together for her. Hubby and I planned on making her an Elmo "cupcake" cake that we saw online, and even though we are amateurs in baking, we wanted to try. Hubby was mostly who did it, even though I help him here...

A bit over a year ago....

As I was being checked for high blood pressure after my pre-eclampsia with Mia in April 2006, I was not allowed to use a birth control method other than condoms. At my 6 months postpartum check up, I was suppose to be checked to see if I was able to get on another type of birth control. I was late for my checkup, but I was also late for the period!! December 2006I found out that I was pregnant and I was almost over with the first trimester. My period...

School Mother's Day

As Mother's Day in this country is next Sunday, the schools have been celebrating Mother's Day around these days....Mimi's school celebrated it yesterday, but by mistake I didnt got the memo. Anyway, it is not a biggie as she didnt participated. She did made me a gift, and I received it when I picked her up:Today was the celebration in Mia's school, which as you guys know, it is the same school that I work for, BUT it's 2 blocks away (my office...

Walking with style...

As she already let me see her, now she wont stop walking!! It is amazing, how every kid will learn to walk so differently... I think the personality, body complexion, gross motor skills, and maturity, plays an important role on this.Gaby walked when she was 9+ months old almost 10. She had this clumsy walking, and she was falling down a lot!! She used to open her legs wide open, and she had "middle ground frustation (she will get upset sometimes,...
