Lots going on

We have been really busy and I haven't had much time to blog lately. But wanted to post to say we are doing well just busy. I'll blog soon to tell about what's been going on with the Perez household. I'll leave ya with a couple cute pics of our little princess :-)

Just because...

Tavo is usually the one that captures the great pics on the camera. But I got a cute one the other day and thought I would share :-)

Happy belated 2nd birthday Ariana

I've been meaning to post, we have just been so busy haven't had a chance. I know it's late, but thought I would post to wish my niece Ariana a Happy 2nd Birthday!!! Her birthday was last Thursday the 8th of July. Yesterday we celebrated her birthday at Belita's and Belito's casa. Jaycee got to hang out with her prima twice in one weekend, she had lots of fun! We love you Ariana, you are a beautiful sweet girl!

A fun day with Hunter.....

Today we had a nice fun day at the zoo with our friends Misty and Hunter. Actually there were several moms and their babies with us. One mom that we used to play softball with and two other moms I just meet for the first time. I wanted to get a picture of us all (5 moms and 6 kiddos in strollers). It would have been a really cute picture, plus it was the first time I had been out with a group other moms like that :-) We had a really fun time :-) Jaycee was so worn out from all the fun she was fast asleep on the car ride home. Got home and was able to move her to her crib, no problem. Still sleeping now :-)

Below are some fun pictures of Jaycee and Hunter. I LOVE having these fun days with Jaycee.......we have such a great time! She is getting so big fast and doing so much!

Happy 4th

It's been the start of a nice 4th of July weekend. We hope you all have a great 4th. This morning the day started with me donating blood and then a nice family afternoon and evening at Tio Kike's birthday BBQ! Jaycee had a blast playing with the other babies at the party :-) Daddy is currently still there. Jaycee and I came home late tonight about 8:45pm (way past her bed time), but she was having fun running around and visiting with everyone. Brought her PJs and she was fast asleep in the car and still fast asleep in her crib. I should be cleaning up for tomorrow, but instead playing on the computer and then I’ll be ready for bed.

Tomorrow will be a fun filled day of good friends, food and fireworks :-) We plan to have friends over, cook up some steaks, sweet corn, baked beans and etc; then we head off to see fireworks. This will be Jaycee's second firework show, we I think she will love it again. Plus her little miss Estella will be there to enjoy the fun :-)

Happy Father's Day!

Happy 3rd Father's Day mi amor! I'm so proud to be your wife and most of all proud to call you the Father of our little princess. You are a wonderful Father and can't wait till the day we get to be parents again:-) I love sharing the role of parenthood with you! Thanks for all you do!

Happy Father's Day Grandpa, we will you!

Our little princess just 3 days old, hanging with Dadda!

Happy 18 months....

I know I'm a couple days late, but I'm having trouble finding time to blog lately. Anyway, I can't believe JR is already 18 months, time truly does fly by. Yesterday she had a doctor's appointment and the doc says all is well and she's doing great. She weighed in at 20 pds and 8.2 oz. Finally legal to turn around in the carseat, even though we long ago turned her around ;-) Check out some cute pics below. Enjoy :-)

Family day of fun!!!

Today we went to Tavo's union picnic at Santee Lakes. A good day of all day family fun! We were a little worried about going all day and Jaycee not getting a nap, but she did very well. At one point in the day she fall asleep in my arms and then I laid her down in the stroller and she took a nice 45 min nap. Got her energized for more fun :-) They had one of the jumpers with a slide and all kinds of bouncy fun and Jaycee just loved it. She would hold onto my hands and jump herself, it was too cute. Her prima Ariana was there also and they had fun times playing together :-) This year we didn't really win anything at the raffle, usually at least all kids get something, but Jaycee missed out this year. Always next year. We did win a bocce ball set, a fun game to play, but I'm sure won't get used much. Check out some cute pics of the fun day!

Silly Jaycee

The other day, Shamu thought he would get away from Jaycee by hopping on the couch. Boy was he wrong, she just climbed up on the couch after him. And then poor kitty, she got on top of him and tried to ride him by bouncing up and down on him. Which is something she does to both of us often when we are laying down on the floor or bed. I was able to catch a cute pic with the camera.

Just because....

Thought I would share a cute pic Dadda took of the princess the other day....too cute!!!! Wearing Momma's heels, she's starting young :-)

Happy Memorial Day weekend!

A lovely Sunday....

This morning Jaycee and I meet my BFF Maria and her girls at Balboa park while our husbands played in a golf tournament. First we visited the flower garden, some really beautiful plants in there. Then we let the girls run around for a while and headed off to visit the Train Museum. Jaycee was much more into the trains then I thought she would be :-) After the museum we went to ride the train and carousel. The girls had a lot of fun running around together and tired themselves out. Jaycee fall fast asleep in the car before we even left the parking lot and is still fast asleep in her crib now. Thanks Maria for everything, we had a GREAT time!

Looks like they could pass as sister's......

Sweet baby Victoria, she is always an angel when we go out and loves to smile! Such a good baby!

Date Night!!!!

My sis and I agreed we needed to make time for date nights for the four of us. We watch her kiddos and she watches our princess. Actually when she first moved back to SD last August we said we were going to have date nights and never stuck to it. But now we have it on the calendar for once a month and plan for it :-) Last month we went to dinner and hurried to get our princess because we had been away from her all day long. It was the first time we had spent that much time away from her. My sis watches Jaycee during the day on Friday's so it's easiest to have date night then so we can just come home from work and go. Last night we took our time with date night and had a nice time. First we had dinner and then went to an hour $20 massage. Yes, I said $20, it's a Chinese massage and it's different from our usual Monica massages, but it's still nice for $20. Monica is actually the person that told us about the place. Thanks Monica! Then after our massage we went bowling. We had a lot of fun and really enjoyed ourselves. Thanks sis!
