Caught red handed


Ms. Zoey decided to go through the diaper bag, take out a baggie of cheerios, spill it on the floor, and hey why not grab a few. Moments after I had just vacuumed the house. Perfect timing!!!!!!

Christmas Sunday

Sadly, this is the best picture of nana. Let's just say she was not cooperating that day with the camera.

Zoey loved the dress her tio picked out for her.

So this year I decided to take julianna to paint her first ornament. I thought it would be a cute tradition, and great to see how her artistic expression evolves with time. So Jess, what do the colors say about her??

Double take



i didn't realize how much they looked alike until i saw pictures of julianna when she was younger. in here julianna is almost nine months old an zoey is almost ten months. Currently they look so completely different, yet amazingly, are both the spitting image of me!!!

a trip to Seaworld

Jornas with the girls

a family picture at the south pole, not as cold as i expected it to be.


Both julianna and zoey are scared of santa, maybe they know he's not the one buying the presents... hmmm, anyways we were in line at santa's house julianna was okay, kinda excited, until she saw him sitting on his throne. she froze and started to cry, she did not even want to pass by him. we thought zoey would do better so we sat her on his lap, but no, she too cried when she realized he was looking at her. just sat her there long enough to get the picture.

well we have had a very blessed year!!!! we pray that 2007 be a year of great blessings for you and your family. We pray that it be filled with love and laughter, with material and financial blessings but mostly with spiritual blessings. May 2007 be the year that you do great things for our Lord!

Julianna- the helper




Julianna loves to help around the house. she wants to help me with the dishes, "No mami, nana do it" she put sthe clothes in the dryerfor me, and taxis zoey around. i'm hoping by age four she can start dinner.....

Zoey 9 months




Zoey is now crawling all over the house and standing herself up on everything. She'd rather be on the floor than anywhere else. She went for her 9 month physical two weeks ago. She is now weighing 24lbs and 29in long. Luckily the doctor that saw her is not concerned about her weight. funny story about the pic on the right..... like i said she is all over the place. so i am on the phone with jess and all of a sudden i see zoey by the fridge. so instead of rushing to pick her up, i tell jess that zoey is licking the fridge cause she catches her reflection (even she finds herself so cute she wants to kiss herself). so jess says take a picture... and sadly i do. had this been my firstborn i would have picked her up as soon as i saw her around the kitchen and washed her mouth, so she'd be germ free. I'm thinking of just wrapping some towels around zoey's knees and letting her clean the floor for me. it's tough being the second child. i'm kidding, i'm not really going to wrap towels around her.

Grandma



Julianna having cafe with gma. She says, "mami i want afe"
Not to worry its more milk than coffee.

Back on...



well i finally got myself another camera. The girls are doing great. Zoey is now crawling all around the house and she is starting to pull herself up. She is growing so fast. Julianna continues to learn new things. Today when I called her, she replied "dime mami" (pronounced di-meh) translates to tell me. usually she'd answer si mami (yes mami).
here are some recent pics....

Update

So its been awhile since i have posted anything. Ms. Julianna broke my camera. She threw it in the dirt and now it won't open or anything. She is right smack in the middle of her terrible twos. She is certainly pushing to see how far she can go. today she sent me to time out!!! So anyway I am shopping for a new camera and as soon as i get one I will have some pics up.

We Still Believe


Go Sox Go!!!!

Pool Party





Julianna and Zoey have been having so much fun since Mailli and Papito moved to FL. (One family down, two to go... yes Jess we will get you too... Zoey is a missionary as we speak) They were swimming almost every day but now mailli started school, so no more pool parties. here she had the scab on her nose :(

Me & Zoey at the wedding

Evelyn's wedding


Julianna was the little bride at the wedding. She looked beautiful.... she went to the salon in the morning, they did her hair in perfect little curls. She sat there like a big girl in the chair by herself. After she was done, she kept looking at herself in the mirrors. After a long day and getting ready it was time for the show to begin.... her big moment.... the moment Evelyn had been waiting for since she planned the wedding.... the doors open.... julianna and papito are walking down the aisle holding hands. STOP!!!! wait that's what was supposed to happen. instead, julianna and papito are crying, papito dashes into the row of chairs and hides, raisa is now walking julianna half way down the aisle. I signal for her to leave her alone, julianna continues down the aisle alone and crying hysterically. Not quite the way we rehearsed.

It's tough being Two!!!

Julianna has had a horrible two weeks, hence why there has not been any pictures of her. First she fell in the driveway and landed on her forehead. Huge black and blue. lasted for about a week. Around the time it was fading away.... she fell off our bed. She was sleeping and turned around and landed on the floor. Talk about a painful awakening. She hit her nose on the nightstand and another big bruise. Well guess what.... right around the time the scab from her nose was peeling.... she again fell outside, that was today. It had rained earlier and she was outside in flip flops, she slipped and now she has a HUGE fat lip. For a minute I thought she might have broken a tooth cause she was bleeding so much. Needless to say it has been tough for her.

If you look closely, you can see her two bottom teeth.

America's Next Top Model



Julianna loves to put on shoes... hers, Jonas', mine, anybody. Today she was walking around in mine. She had her Easter bunny purse and the heels. All you can hear is clonk clonk clonk as she walked around the house. Of course she found a box of raisins that she had stored in her purse since who knows when. That was her one snack for the day.

Zoey is 4 months old



Today i discovered that Zoey has two of her bottom teeth coming in. I can actually feel them!!! I felt a little sad that my little little girl is growing and growing. soon she'll be crawling, walking, running. i know i am pathetic, time just flies. So last weeek she started with her cereal. This week she started with carrots. They do not seem very appetizing to her. Spits them right out. i scoop them up and stick them back in. yum!!

Julianna turned TWO


I can not believe Julianna is already two (july 3). We had a small birthday party for her in MA. She was a beautiful butterfly. It has been amazing to see her grow these last two years. I can honestly say I have never felt such genuine love. No offense to Jonas. A hug and a kiss from her seems so natural. I don't nor care to remember life before her.
