Thanksgiving- 3 Months today!

Thanks Giving was a sucess we sure enjoyed getting together with family and friends to share this great day. We had a delicious dinner, turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, veggie tray and pies. It was so good! Andres was three months old on Thanksgiving day. He is a joy in our lives. He is getting soooo big; he has graduated into size two diapers already. It is so fun to see how much he has changed he is getting so tall he fits in size 6 months in alot of his clothes. He is now just a babling, cooing and giggling. I am so proud of our little man! Happy Thanks Giving and Happy Holidays!

Bungee Baby Bouncer, 11 weeks old-

Andres is tring to learn his new Bungee Baby Bouncer....Grandma, Grandpa, Mommy, Daddy and Jami all tried to get him to jump....he stands pretty well. Aunt Jami said he was as fun as watching paint dry....jajaja Grandma said that it only takes them a day or two an they get the hang of it. He looks like our little Pinochio!
Grandpa came and held him up like he had caught a big fish..."he's a good catch." Daddy jigged in the kitchen "It's his first lesson" he said as he jumped and danced around...Andres watched intently but didn't jump so much. Mommy was once again the photographer so there isn't a pic...of me and our little man. Oh well.... It will be fun to see him bounce around in the next couple of days. He is really strong I bet he will catch on quickly.
Andres is sure growing up he loves to play with his toys,read books and take baths. He has discovered his hands and is beginning to use his voice more. He is a very charming boy he is quite happy most of the time. He has graduated from size one diapers to size two. He's a big boy!

Baby Milestones-Your baby is an excellent listener. He recognizes your voice, and he'll show you his pleasure by smiling at the sound of your greetings. He's also excitedly using all five senses to learn about the world. You can actually see how hard he's working to assimilate the new information he's exposed to every day. If something grabs his attention, notice how hard he focuses on it and stares. He's taking it in on many levels..

Fun Weekend! Andres is 10 weeks old-

We just got home from Grandpa & Grandma Greats (Richards) we spent the weekend with them at their home in Garland. It was a really fun weekend, Andres sure enjoyed it also he loves his great grandparents. We played games, went to the auction, slept in (well...Felito & Grandma did), and ate great meals. Felito said he hasn't eaten or slept so good in 3 months. Toni and her friend Wess stopped in on Saturday it was fun to see her. We were playing hand and foot...a real fun game...Felito and Grandma won! Andres tried a Jonny Jumper that grandma has, he loved it, he giggled out loud 3 times. He still hasn't got the hang of it....maybe next time....he sure liked it when I made him bounce or swing. We will have to see on Thanks Giving if he remembers it. It was so much fun we didn't want to come home, thank you Grandpa & Grandma. Love you

Family Home Evenings-

We have had alot of fun lately we have had several family home evenings with good friends. Tonight we went to Taylor, Callie and Kinsie's house it was so much fun to get together and have dinner together. The lesson was great it was about service and how we need to be in the spirit of service not only during the holiday season but all year around. We had alot of fun!

Blessing Day, 9 weeks old-

It was so fun to have all the family and friends at our baby blessing today. Thanks everyone for comming. Felito gave the blessing in spanish he did a really good job....Andres was really good...he only squaked at the end and when Felito held him up. (I loved that kiss that his daddy gave him afterwards, he's a proud dad.) It is such a blessing to have a great husband who honors and exercises his priestood to bless our family. I enjoyed Felito's testimony; I am so glad that we have an eternal family also. I really wanted to bear my testimony today but Andres got hungry so I had to go out. I am so thankful to my Heavenly Father for allowing us to have little Andres he brings such joy and happyness to our family. When I was comming home from my mission I wrote in the back of Felito's Book of Mormon (his baptism gift) for him to marry in the temple and to honor his priestood and bless his family. Never in a million years would I have thought at that we would get married and he would bless our child. Its amazing how the lord works. We had a great luncheon thanks everyone for bringing great food and sharing this special day with us. OH YEAH...Felito and I made a Dominican dish to share with the family. It is a soup called Sancocho it had 7lbs of chicken, 2lbs of sausage, 1lb salami, potatoes, celery and carrots...etc...We made a huge pot of it and it was a good thing. I think it was a hit, it was all gone. We also made coconut rice...it was fun for Felito to share some of his culture on this special day!

Yesterday was so fun...my friend Briann and her husband Shaun came to town and we hung out. We went to firehouse pizza for lunch. It was sooo good to see them it has been forever. Felito and I don't make it to Salt Lake very often so we will have to go and get together again sometime soon. They are good friends, it was a fun day.

Halloween, Andres is 8 weeks-

Halloween was so much fun! We dressed up and went to the Halloween carnaval that they had at the mall. Andres was a little pirate...aargh... and I was a robot. We went with my friend Julie and her little girl Kaylee they were so cute Julie was a cow and Kaylee a calf. It was sooo fun.....they were "Utterly Adorable." The costumes were so awsome! We went and visited Aunt Jami for a bit then we came home to get Papi...and he loved Andres' costume. We got some bad news our brother-in-law passed away this afternoon a car accident .....so that was really hard. Toni and her friend Wess invited us out to dinner...we went to Wingers & dressed up. Felito and I were robots, Toni was Sponge Bob and Wess was Larry the Cable Guy and their other friend was just himself. It was so much fun hanging out with Toni and meeting her friends. We later went out to grandma and grandpa's house to say hi... Aunt Gloria came up to say hi also it was fun to see her costume....it was a pretty good Halloween...Andres is a pretty cute Pirate!
