Good Bye 2009

2009 was a year full of strong emotions: good and bad ones, and Im completely sure it is a year that I will never forget. It actually marked so many things in our lives and I dare to say that it may have been the year where I learned and grew more in my whole life. It was a year with lots of tears, but a the year that made me as strong as I feel now.Here are the girls enjoying the fireworks from their bedroom at my mom's house when the clock marked...

Santa came to town!

This year I was too busy helping the girls to open their presents, that I couldnt get as many pictures as I normally get. The also got other stuff but here are the stuff they got from me and Auntie Cara.They choose what they wanted to leave for Santa, so he got: Strawberry milk, a banana, baby carrots and cookies (those cookies were they ons that kept me awake while I was wrapping them ALL NIGHT long! LOL)... I have to practice my Santa's handwriting...

Merry Christmas from us to you!!

This year I made plans with our holiday cards and how early I was get them out and yada yada yada, however it didnt happen. I made our Holiday Cards WAY LATE and I didnt even mail them out. I decided to stick to online this year, because of the time it was. Anyway, here it i...

Visiting my grandma

Last night after the show, we went to visit my grandmother. I hardly get to visit her and it was sooo nice for the girls to spend some time with her. My grandma was surprised with all the bananas they were eating (Mimi actually ate 2 and a half, Camila 3 and Gaby 3)... Gotta love my piggies!!All 3 girls ready to leave:Arent they just gorgeous?Mia being cute (how I miss her long hair!!)My grandma, mom and the girls:Mimi chatting with my gradma....

The 3 Wise Kings and the BIrth of Jesus - A Play

Gaby's Christmas Play at School

To be honest, we cant remember for the live of us the name of the song that Gaby and her classmates represented on their presentation. We think it was Christmas in the Caribbean, but we are just not sure. That is what happens when you are a lousy blogger and dont post on time!Anyway, enjoy these few pictures. I have lots more, however I prefer not to post many pictures with the other kids in it as my blog is public. Looking back at the pictures,...

Task #49: Checked! - New do for me!

Cant even remember when was the last time that I did something for my look. I believe the last time I got highlights was after Gaby was born in 2003!!!! When I started loosing weight a few months ago I decided it was time to let my hair grow and anybody who has done that can relate on how difficult it is. I have been wanting to get highlights since several months ago, however I wanted to wait until my hair was long enough to blow dry it, instead...

Photo Shoot at home!

I bring a camera from work yesterday, and the girls were thrilled for getting to go outside for some pictures. I have sooo much to learn about photography but I promise to get better with the time. I really need to learn how to use manual settings, especially for days like there when auto mode is giving me a hard time!Take a look at their faces cause these pictures does say a lot about their personalitie...

Just a day at home

We have been sleeping at my mom's house simply trying to keep the girls away from the unpacking process, however not being able to unpack at night is making things way slower. I know we will get it done at some point!Here are some pics from today! Gaby and Mimi just being naughty:Gaby begging for a picture:Camila getting to bed (I remember she was sick that day):Mimi being spoiled by her grandma: Being rocked to sleep (something that she actually...

Task #18: Checked! - New place

We actually rented the new place 2 weeks ago, however today is when we officially emptied the old house and finished moving all the furniture and boxes to the new place. Im not really sure how I will make fit a 2 floor house into this small apartment, but we will manage. It also has 3 bedrooms plus a little bedroom next to the laundry room (used for maids in this country), however each room is way smaller and now we dont have space for the outdoor...

Better than I thought

Working outside of the house turned out to be better than I thought. I didnt know how I was going to manage to be away from the girls for so many hours and how I was still going to be able to keep on with 3 Little Flowers, but it worked out just fine.Being able to interact with other adults and actually talk about something different than poopy diapers and potty training, it was really nice. I also got to play with different cameras which made...

Task #79: Checked! - New home for Sassy

When the decision of getting a smaller place was done, we knew one of the most difficult things was going to be giving Sassy away. She was still a puppy, however we knew she was going to grow into a huge dog and it was an impossible thing to think we were gonna be able to keep it in an apartment.One of my mom's employees offer to take her home and raise her and it was a blessing, because she was going to be able to stay in a place where we can...

Gaby even won a contest...Luis Enrique and his mom went with us...

The Purple Lunchbox # 11

I got to make lunches the whole week this week!! How fun!! The girls continue to eat most of their lunch, especially Mia and Mimi. Gaby sometimes doesnt eat everything but she normally does it after school.Mia does very good with fruits, while Mimi does better with carbs, and Gaby does better with proteins... It is funny how they can be sisters and be so much alike, and at the same time be so different with the things they like.I really want more...
