Thank you for visiting my blog...

Hi bloggers!!! Wanted to say thank you for visiting my blog. Never in a million years did I ever think I was going to get thousands of hits, so thank you so much.
I have decided to stop blogging on this blog, I will not delete it so I'll be able to come back to it in case I need it for a layout I create or something like that. Maybe later on I decide to continue and I'll do just that but for now I will put it on freeze.

I WILL keep my scrapbooking blog though so hope you stop by.
See ya!!!

Halloween is coming up!!!

The Holidays are here!!! I just get soo happy this time of year. I plan so many things for my family and then I just pray to God that He allows them to happen.
This year is extra special and even more blessed because of my princess. We have this beautiful addition to our family and we are just so happy with her.
This is Mia's 1st everything! Cant believe I'm actually doing all this again but it feels so good.
So my princess loved the pumpkin experience. This is actually a pumpkin Cristian is taking to school tomorrow, we'll buy a pumpkin to carv this week and I'm roasting the pumpkin seeds in the oven...very Martha Stewart :)

So we went to the mall this morning to get Cristian sweaters for the *winter*. Love seeing him sweaters, I think all boys look gorgeous in them. And of course some cuteness for my precious Mia. Where did we go? Gymboree, of course. When I saw online the gingerbread & panda collection I was like AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHh!! I also got her holiday dress and Cristian's outfit to match with hers. Cant wait!!!!
Here are some pics I took today of some of the things we got her. My favorites were a hot pink cordoroy pants with flowers, sooo cute. All the gingerbread stuff, especially the tights, the panda sweater is delish, and the jeans that go with it.
The bunny sweater shown here is very hot pink, you cant really tell on these (2) pics, I guess the lighting was not that good.
I love taking pics of my kid's clothes. I like them because when they grow up they can see the styles and stuff.
I took pics of Cristian's sweaters and pants too, but his favorite thing was the herringbone cap, he called "France hat" ahhahaahah. It's funny because when I met hubby he would ALWAYS wear these and seeing Cristian loving them too it's so sweet.



So anyway, here are some of the outfits. Oh and we got her 1st Santa PJ's, they are not really Santa, they are snowman, but so cute too.

And I'll leave you with these pictures of the SnowWhite doll I got her. This is a new collection from Disney and they are limited to 5000 pieces. I got on the list back in August and I got it at the beginning of this month. Next doll will be Triana, the new princess coming out this year. It's even more beautiful irl and she is tall too. She has the red apple in one hand and a blue bird on the other. Just gorgeous!

So I'll be back with more pics. Have tons to upload.

Thanks for stopping by.

been lost (part 56 ha!!) October 2*****

Its been forever in Blogger time but with a baby and son back in school and the fact that I am scrapping more (wowwwwww!!) I hardly have time to come here or HERE but I am guessing that will change in a few more months.

I have lots of things going on right now PLUS I am planning Mia's 1st bday party so I am bee-usy!!!

Anyway, I am here to post the pics of our little adventure after we got to Bahamas.

So we got there went to the Blue Lagoon did the (beautiful) dolphins and we went to Atlantis. By the time we got there it was about 2:30pm and he had to be back by 5pm (or so we thought) because the boat would leave at 5:30pm (again, or so we thought, ha!) so we decided *not* to pay for Atlantis because it was ridiculous to pay about $250 for a couple of hours (if that). So we decided to go to the Fish Fry and eat there.

If you have never eaten at the Fish Fry then I suggest to get a boat this weekend and eat at Oh Andro's- Oh Lordy!!! how delicious!!!!

We were having so much fun that when we looked at the watch it was 4:53pm omg!!! Ok, no problem (we thought) we are here at the port just 2 minutes away and we already have a taxi driver waiting for us. We knew we had to RUUUUUUUNNNN once we would get off the cab but when we go in the immigration part to go to your boat there was a HUGE line full of people trying to get to the boat...not our boat, their boat, they were right on time, we were sooo late. We are chilling and laughing when we hear BAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Rey looks to the side thru the glass and says, "thats not out boat, is it?" Me: ahahahhaah yes, it is!!!!!!

Cristian starts to cry, oh nooooooooo Mickey and baby Mickey!!! I am going to be completely honest with you, that is what hurt me more, seeing my son crying for his Mickeys.

All of a sudden Rey goes, "we dont have Mia's milk!!" And that is when I almost had a heartattack. Mind you all this happened in a matter of a minute or 2, when all of a sudden there comes a lady named Cristina with a radio and a cell phone and talking to what looked to be 2 people at the same time and she goes, "you missed your boat, right? Dont worry."

I swear to you, within 20 minutes we had ABSOLUTELY ALL OF OUR LUGGAGE WITH US. I have no idea how they managed that. Even the razors in the bathroom, everything was packed. We were like, HUH?!!!! We had Mia's milk and the Mickeys and that's all we needed.

The lady goes, well, take this as a blessing, you get to stay longer. HECK YEAH!!!!!!! And we continued to have FUNNNNNNNNNNNNNN and of course we went back to Atlantis.
BTW we had to be IN the boat at 4:30 because it would leave at 5pm HA!!! Well, at 4:30 we were enjoying a delicious meal at Oh Andro's...what do we say right now? TOTALLY WORTH IT!!!

Here are some pics. I still have to edit the really cute ones from Atlantis, I need to resize them because they are too big for the blog but I'll do that someday and plus they are all on the other commputer. These were taken from our cell.

More Vacation stuff...

Am I the only mom out there THRILLED because school is back??! Doubt it! HA! Good for us!

I want to share with you one of the most special pictures I own.

If you have been reading my blog for a while then you would know that I simply ADORE dolphins. You can literally leave me the whole entire day at the dolphin pool in SeaWorld, Orlando. Just ask hubby. So whether is SeaWorld or Seaquarium or a movie I cry when I see them and I always feel the urge of throwing myself in the water with them. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT TRY THIS.

Anyway, one of the things I had to do before my time is done on Earth was swim with them and I thank God for giving me the opportunity to do so...with my son! Not only did I swim with these beauties but I did it at the Blue Lagoon. Remember that beautiful movie with Brooke Shields? well, it was there. I was obsessed with that movie when I was little and it is just amazing how God works it all out to perfection. How awesome is that!

Hubby was on time out (jk taking care of baby) but was there with us taking more pics. These are the pics we bought from them. We actually got the big 12x12 album with 8x10 & 5x7 pics, we got the picture cd & the movie/dvd.

I dont really have to explain all the emotions I felt when I was hugging and kissing these beauties, right? And let me tell you I gave them lots and lots of kisses. There were 4 of them with us, if Im not mistaken.

So here they are...SO GORGEOUS!!!

First family pic is right before we go down the deck. You can see the water behind, hubby was literally right there with Mia. In fact we would whisper eachother stuff during the swim, thats how close he was.

I want to try putting the movie on youtube so that you can see the whole thing. It is really cute. You'll see Cristian & I with the famous foot kick which is the coolest thing ever! Cristian did it sooo beautiful. You'll see.

They didnt take any pics of the foot kick which I think they do on purpose so that you can buy the video and have it there but hubby was also taking pics so while Cristian was doing it Rey took pics and I video taped it with my own camcorder (at this point we didnt know we were buying the movie yet) . Also the video we bought shows us from the front, dont know where they were shooting it from, but its better cause you can see our reaction...and Cristian's face, sooo cute!

So, Im tired now. Hope you like the pics :)

Back from vaca...(2)

So, where did I left off? The 1st night after we went to bed (Cristian slept with us) and we were cracking up. Cristian wouldnt stop talking...well whispering because Mia was on the next room sleeping and we didnt want her to wake up. Cristian wouldnt stop looking out the windown and this is where we were thankful that we ended up on these rooms because we had a nice ocean view. So he would climb up every 10 minutes and when he would see a lit ship he would wake us up again. In the morning both of them were awake at 7am, wayyyy before their usual time. Breakfast in bed that day & went to the boat that would take us to Coco Cay. It's a little tiny island owned by Royal Caribbean and super cute! we had a very relaxing day. I needed that. Hubby & Cristian spent the day in the water and Mia & I relaxing on the lounge chairs under the big umbrella. I read a bit and everything.

BTW I am reading Tori's Spelling 1st book and its really funny. Cant wait to finish it so that I can read Mommywood. Which reminds me I bought her agate necklace on HSN on the 2nd anniversary and it is sooo cute!!!

Food was yummy, it was a BBQ at the beach with lots of choices.

Cristian did the slides and stuff like that. We had a great time that day.

Something funny: Hubby & Cristian went to get soda at a bar they have there and Cristian gets close to the bar counter, slams it hard & loud and said, "Gimme a shot...of milk!" OMG that was hilarious. Cristian is a really funny kid.

So more stuff happened that day at CocoCay and at night at the ship but I have to go get the baby ready for bed.

Here are some pics, hope you like them.

Mia's friend

I dont know if I mentioned on previous posts that Mia was going to have a BF right across our home and that we are blessed because this family is a very good & decent family.

Anyway, today Emma turn 1 month old and Mia went across the street to visit her. These are the pics that I took of them two at Emma's house.

Emma is such a princess and I cannot wait to see them two playing dolls and stuff, sooo cute!!!

(I will be back with more about our vacation)

Back from vaca...

Thank Jesus! We had so much FUN!! We went on a Cruise to Cococay and Nassau, Bahamas and it was awesome.

It was definitely an experience for us, from every angle. From going with 2 kids (including a baby, bottles, milk, diapers and the whole 9yards) to swimming with dolphins, going to Atlantis, to having the most delicious lobster & shrimp I've ever tasted in my entire life to missing our boat, yes we missed our boat and staying at the Bahamas and coming in an airplane...but not a big, comfy airplane, no no, this looked more like a bird, hahah!!! But more of that later on. Just wait til you see pics.

I took over 800 pics on my Rebel XTI but also took pics on my Iphone so I have lots and lots to edit and *scrapbook* YIPPIEEE!!

Im also gonna try to put the video of our dolphin adventure on youtube so you guys can see it.

It's impossible to tell the whole story in one post, it will take a few so if you want to hear the story keep coming back. Starting next week I will have a little more time since Cristian goes back to school...and this year one more hour...so happy!!!! Can you tell my excitement?? ha!!!

Anyway, our day started with breakfast at Denny's is kind of like a little tradition we have, hubby & Cristian went to get their tummys full before heading over there. We had made reservations for 2 joint rooms and thank God we did because there were pretty small.

The boat left the port and we were just having the most amazing time, singing & dancing around the pool and the kids were very happy too.

Cristian was extremely excited...too excited. He was driving us crazy the 1st day. It was his 1st time on a cruise and we were there celebrating his 7th bday. He was hilarious too, saying all these super funny quotes he gets from all the Spongebob & Penguins of Madagascar cartoons.

The weather was HOT and sunny and did I mention HOT??? It also stayed like that throughout the whole time.

Here are the kids when we 1st got to our rooms. We ended up on deck4 for the joint room and we were so worried about the noise that some ships have but this one was silent, literally silent. We were so happy. We went up the pool area to start our vaca and then the fun started. Of course, Mickey & baby Mickey had to come with us too, luckily we didnt have to pay for them :)

I am loving this pic of my beautiful kids and I, definitely a page will be done with this one.

This drink is definitely virgin, I dont drink at all and believe me I dont need it to have fun.

Cristian went in the Adventure thing for kids. He would go at 8pm to about 10:30 and that time we would go eat pizza (Mia is sleeping like a baby on the stroller) and stuff like that. One of the nights we went shopping after the pizza and I got the cutest pink purse with bling and a poodle dog for Mia, I'll take a pic of it. And I had the best chocolate ice-cream, oh and hubby had a caramel one ohmysweetlord, delicious. Yes, I am going back to the gym next week, so dont worry, HA!

Love taking pics of food we eat and I did a lot of this in the cruise, Cococay & Bahamas. Our favorite (all 3 of us) was definitely a place called Andro's n Bahamas. The food was simply delicious. I had the very best lobster & shrimp I've ever tasted. So if you are ever in Bahamas you have go to try their food. The food was so amazing and delicious that we didnt realize our boat was leaving us...more of that later.
Anyway, if you want to read more and see more pics stop by tomorrow.
Have a great night :)

Summer fun!!!

(remember to check out my scrapbooking blog HERE)

Hi bloggers! Boy its been forever since I last updated this blog. I have gotten a couple of emails people asking me if I have been okay (thanks again for your concern). I have been great, thanks to sweet Jesus. I have been on facebook so that takes my little spare time from here. I think I'll be able to change that since I have Photoshop cs2 on my laptop now (wooohooo). This laptop had an expired photo program so I couldnt put pics here and so I couldnt update w photos. I'd needed to go to my desktop for that and that gets kind of impossible nowdays. Anyway, enough of that.

I wanted to share some latest pics. Have more pics to post but I will do that tomorrow.

So we had our 12th wedding anniversary on the 4th of July! Yep, 12 years, doesnt seem that long to me though.

my little Mia is just more and more gorgeous each day. This 1st pic has some major photoshop done, ha! She is already sitting on her own and dislikes...ok, HATES the playpen BUT she has no choice but to grow the love so I am working on that.

Cristian loves her. I can tell already that he could be a little protective later on. If he hears her cry he will drop whatever he is doing. Really cute.

We are still in tutor, we decided to leave him for the rest of the Summer, he'll finish in Sept. just in time for all the holidays. He started karate and then he said he didnt like it. I think he is just not ready for it. He learned all 7 words on the very 1st day and they were going to give him a uniform, belt & a stripe but he just doesnt care for it. Maybe next year. He will start baseball in the Fall and that he really loves.

And look at Mia all nice and pretty ready to go out on a Sunday afternoon. She is still a great baby and sleeps from 7:30pm to about 8am now, cannot complaint :)

We went to the movies to see Ice Age 3 and she saw the whole movie again (her 1st movie was UP), well, she fell asleep for about 15 minutes and then continued it. BTW, the movie is sooo freaking hilarious. I swear, my jaw was hurting me.

Cristian is been enjoying the pool too. Here he is with 2 of his buddies. These are my super awesome friend kids. They are too cute for words and Miranda is a character.

And here is Cristian finishing a little clay pot *man* for his papa for Father's Day. And last, here he is giving love to his sister. This is him all the time. He really loves her and she is just dying to grab him really hard and squeeze him. I have more pics from the beach and stuff to share but I wont bore you anymore. So 'til next time.

ps ooh I am very excited because I will soon (Aug) be putting a stamp on my new passport heheheeh :) I'll tell you about it later.

Have a great rest of the week everyone :)

My Heart is broken...

Still very much in shock and sad with the tragic death of the King of Pop/King of Videos Michael Jackson. My heart aches when I think about it. The world lost a true music genius. Noone will ever forget him. He will go on and on and on.

Tea set & more...

I had such a great time today with my gorgeous son, Cristian and my beautiful princess, Mia.

We went to Pottery Barn kids and I got Mia some things for her room. Got Cristian a dump truck and a little boat for the bathtub.

Dont know if I've said this before but when I found out I was having a girl I always envisioned her room to have a tea party set. In my mind I would see an oval rug, a little table & 2 tiny chairs which one would sit a BIG pink & white bunny and on top of the table was the most perfect tea set ever. Well, I found that tea set today @ PBK and it is beautiful! I had to get it. It's just so simple & delicate. Just perfect.

I also got her these hanging flower (pink & green) thingies. I remember when I went w my friend right before I gave birth and I was debating whether or not to get them and I decided to go back because I have an idea for them too. And I picked up the pink butterflies knobs for her closet doors, these are drawer knobs but you can use them on the closet too.

After that we went to The Falls to get Mia the head piece I needed for tomorrow's pics. Hubby & her (and Cristian) are taking Father & me pics. We did the same when Cristian was a baby and they dressed up with Steelers jersey. Well, nothing is changing hubby, Cristian & Mia are all going dressed up like its the football season.

Anyway, I found the yellow head piece I needed at Kidding Around but I also found this red one and a little flower clip with Swarovski chrystals. It is soooo cute!!!!

After that I took Cristian to Johnny Rockets. Dont really like their food but he ate his burger, fries & chocolate milk and loved it.

Then we went to the Disney Store, I should not have because I had already spent a little money but I decided to go.

Got Cristian a Lilo & Stitch swim shorts/shirt (love those, he has a quite a few) w matching thongs, he wanted to get a Minnie for Mia and he got a Pluto (ANOTHER *friend*) for his bed. He sleeps with Christmas Mickey, baby Mickey, Lighting McQueen, Buzz lightyear car, *Sunshine* (a big yellow dino), a snake, a parrot, Donald Duck, Little Einstein rocket, Nemo & *Buzzy* the clown. He LOVES his plush *friends*.

(btw, Disney has their (awesome) beach towels at 50%) I just LOVE these towels. They are sooo cute. I not only use these as beach/pool towels but I use them as regular bath towels for Cristian. Of course, I dont mix them.)

It was a really fun day with my kids and it was very relaxing too. Thank you, Lord!!!!

Yes, after he takes off his swimming shorts he runs really fast and throws himself butt-naked. He will not do this in front of anyone else, not even his dad.

Have a great weekend!!!

PS omggg!!! hubby just handed me Cristian's last report card and he got all A's & B!!! I am sooo proud of you, Cristian. They also sent a letter to us for having another 100% Attendance year. Sooooooo happy!!!!!!!!

Hi bloggers...

Hi, sorry I havent been around here much but I have been busy. With Cristian here full time is a little more hectic...but a lot more fun too.

We went to the movies to see UP and it was simply AMAZING! Our little princess, Mia saw the whole entire movie without a single complaint. That didnt happen with Cristian. Nope, the 1st time he went to the movies he started to scream to the point we only saw the previews. Not Mia, she saw the whole thing.

Anyway, she turned 5 month old today and she is (thank our Lord Jesus) growing so much and is more beautiful each day.

My prince Cristian is growing up so much too. He got the 100% Attendance Diploma (again) and they made a huge deal the very last day of school. I'm sooo proud of my boy.

He is starting 2nd grade and on the last day of school I found out that his teacher, the one he LOVES will be going to 2nd grade with him to the main campus, so we are sooooooo happy!!!!!

Yesterday was my bday, I turned 25 (ha!) and I had a great time. We didnt do anything out of the ordinary but it was just a fun day. Got the iphone3g or is it g3? (too lazy to search) and I was going to wait until the 19th to get the newest one but the video camera & voice calling thingy is not a big deal to me and since my blackberry pearl was driving me insane because i NEVER understood the damn phone, I just got that one. My skin is funky and very scrapbook-ish. Is red with a girly skull :)

Another thing I got for my bday is BOTOX. Yep, I'm having it done (middle of eyebrows, u know the expression line) next Saturday. It's better to do it now.

So here are a few pics. These w Mia's colorful bandana were all taken today. It's funny how she is ALWAYS smiling and as soon as she sees that big black Rebel she just stares at it and wont smile. See the last picture? Well, that is because hubby got in front of her and I was able to take a picture as she really is, a very happy baby. Also a pic of hubby & Cristian playing in Cristian's room. Hubby LOVES to play with his son, I know for sure there is absolutely nothing he rather do than being with Cristian. They have a very special bond. In fact as I write this they are in there playing a game hubby bought him yesterday. He got the Wii Star Wars for his 100% Diploma. Hubby is also crazy for his little princess and I can tell that he will go nuts for her when she starts to crawl and stuff.

Anyway,ave a great week everyone!!!

Happy bday to me!!!

Where the SKYPE are you?

...as Oprah (so perfectly) named her show.

I had been looking into SKYPE since I saw her contacting people all over the place to be part of her show but it wasnt until I saw the "where the skype are you?" show that made me get off my butt and sign in and OMG I am loving it already.

The 1st person I video cam was super sweet Michelle in PA. I met Michelle when I was in Opaat kit club. So I met her and saw her gorgeous daughter. Then I video chat with my other awesome friend Sismay. Sismay lives 5 minutes away but we have plans to cook & do our 1000 waist exercises together now ahahhahahaahah. I am LOVING THIS THING!!!!

I am hoping more of my friends join (HELLO, ITS FAST, EASY AND FREE) and I am hoping Gigi signs in (hint hint girl) because she lives in Canada and havent seen her since 2006 in Las Vegas.

Leave a comment if you joined.

See that Blue Jay? Everyday around noon he comes and stands on the same orchid. Stays there for a few minutes and takes off. There is a window box there

**********************

(Friday, May 29)

Okay, continuing days later HA!!! I really have been busy...and the weather here has been awesome to do absolutely nothing. Yep, lots and lots of rain and lovely dark gray skies, just perfect!

Cristian is sooo excited about Summer. Tomorrow we are going to Karate, I think they are going to test him 1st and I have a good feeling that is going to be HILARIOUS!!

Mia started her solids and she is loving them so much. And Cristian also started on a food group he NEVER cared about. ICE-CREAM! I get so excited when he asked me for ice-cream that I took out these cute little cup just for him.

I saw the movie Marley & me and I dont recommend it UNLESS you dont mind being with your eyes looking like 2 punching bags for 2 days. It was funny and OH SO SAD, I had to buy Tylenol Sinus after watching it because my sinus headaches were BAD. I saw Australia too and I thought it was excellent. We went to BestBuy last Saturday and we were so happy to see Season7 of 24, omg it is sooo good!!!

I am *hoping* to do some scrapbooking today but I am sooooo tired that I rather crash n the couch. I am sooo behind on my pages. I'll catch up one day, ha!

Oooh speaking about scrapbooking, yesterday were mommy & me pictures at Mercy Photos and I cannot wait to see them. Mia was butt naked with a big olive green bow on her head. She looked sooo cute!

Anyway, look at these cute pics. My boys and Mia watching The penguins of Madagascar. OMG, my little gorgeous Mia LOVES them!!! Cant you tell?!! She is only 4 months and you can tell she has the *movie genes* in her ;)

Have a GREAT weekend!!!

OMG!!!!

I AM ONE HAPPY GIRL!!!!!!!!
ADAM LAMBERT AND KRIS ALLEN
LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mia's Easter Fun

This is a very BAD scan but wanted to show anyway. Mia was exactly 3 months on this day and she was/is really loving the camera. She better. Really, what choice does she have? NONE! :)

Yes, the little bunny is real and it has the most gorgeous red eyes. Again, you cannot really tell since my scanner didnt pick up the real colors of these pics. (click on the pics to see them larger)

Have I mentioned that Mia is going to have a best friend right across our home? Her name will be (with God's blessing) Emma Sophia and Emma's mom is already planning play dates with us. I think its gonna be really fun to watch them play. I am also planning to set up the corner of the house with a swing set and a cute little house, stuff like that.

I am so in love with this little munchkin, we all are. And I LOVE to see Cristian taking care of her. Even though I am trying to enjoy her as an infant as much as possible I really cannot wait 'til she starts to crawl and walk to see them play together.

Anyway, yesterday was pretty much movie day, we went to buy movies and to Miami Subs. We watched Bedtime Stories with Cristian and then hubby & I watched Bride's war (I sooooooo loved this movie) and The uninvited (scary and it was good, it was not like WOW but it was good...and did I mention SCARY?!!!)

Random photos...

Hello! I have not been the best blogger but I have been buuuusssyy!!! Here are a few pics.
On Easter Sunday was Mia's dedication and also hubby's birthday. We also took Cristian to Jungle Island on Saturday. We were having a great time but the weather got bad, lots of rain and even though I am a rain/"bad"weather lover it literally sucked, it kinda of got boring since we had to sit and wait for the rain to stop and stuff.
Hubby didnt want to take the pic with the monkey and the lion either. We took it last year but this time it was a really tiny baby lion and he was sooo delish, hubby was mean! ahhahah. Before the rain (you know, when it was fun) Mia took her 1st Easter bunny picture, its really cute. I need to scan it though. Well, its actually the whole family. You know, when I see a pic of the 4 of us it is just so weird, it's like, wow! we are 4 now!
We are now planning a cruise for Cristian, a dinner cruise I mean, I dont want to take the baby so small to a long trip. But next year hopefully we can take him to the Disney one.

Isnt that view back there gorgeous? Loving it. That's Miami Beach and the cruise ship Cristian wants to go on hehehehe

I truly dislike snakes but what am I gonna do? you know boys!

When we got home on Easter day...or evening the Easter bunny had passed by and left some "magic dinosaur eggs" for Cristian and a little gift.

and before the Easter bunny passed by our home we saw him at Fuego Vivo restaurant and Cristian made him come to our table at least 37 times. Hubby ate every single type of meat they had and my favorite was a banana appetizer (see that little bowl) it was soo good and of course the yummy chocolate cake.

and here are these 2 sliding down again. They LOVE it!

TFL :)
