Thought for the Day!

I saw this post on a friends blog (thanks for sharing Tammy) and I had to share. Love it! Te Amo Mucho Amor!

Some zoo fun!

This morning we met our friends Tanner and Andrea at the zoo and after our fun at the zoo before it got to hot to walk around we went to the park in Balboa to have lunch and the let the kiddos play. I just love having these types of days with our princess. I'm so blessed my job lets me work part-time :) Thanks for the fun Andrea and Tanner! Our lion friend at the zoo is usually not as close as he was today, check it out!

Hot weather

The last week or so, it's been really hot for us. Especially for prego mommy here. Saturday was miserable, sure wish we had AC for those really hot days! It's been rough on JR also, she has a really hard time sleeping, it's way too hot upstairs in her room to sleep :( Her naps have been super short :( Gonna be another hot and humid one this weekend, guess we will be spending more time at the pool like some of the pictures below :) Enjoy

Melting Pot vs Forever Fondue

Forever Fondue in La Jolla is usually were we go for our Wedding Anniversary each year, we have made it a tradition. We really enjoy the place, great food and atmosphere! After having dinner at the Melting Pot last night I thought we would like one more than the other. Well, it's a tough one, we can't really say we enjoy one over the other. They are both really good :) I think the Melting Pot might be a little more expensive, but we are also thinking you may get alittle more food. We may have to make the Melting Pot a birthday tradition and keep Forever Fondue an Anniversary tradition since we enjoy both so much! Last nights dinner was so yummy and so enjoyable. Thanks again mom and dad for the gift certificate :)

Birthday dinner with the hubby :)

What a GREAT day today was. Got to sleep in a little, the whole family did :) Went to the park at the Bay with JR and Tavo. We played and had a picnic lunch. Came home and relaxed. Monica came over to watch JR so Tavo and I could enjoy a nice dinner out. I had a nice surprise from the hubby, he had planned for me to have a massage from Monica before we went to the restaurant. The massage felt WONDERFUL! Thanks so much Monica, you truly are amazing and a wonderful friend. We love you! We ate at the melting pot in UTC/La Jolla, we had a gift certificate from mom and dad at Christmas time. Thanks mom and dad for paying for my birthday dinner :)

Check out some pictures from tonight's dinner :)

Our yummy dinner spread we all shared....Samosa's, mango chicken, chicken tikka maslsa, Lamb vindaloo, mixed veggie korma, biryanis vegetable rice and Dizzy Noo Shak (banana curry) with Naan. It was a ton of food and we did have some leftovers, but ALL so yummy!

My amazing sister

Tomorrow will be my 34th birthday and I got an early birthday present from my sister. She is truly amazing in so many ways......just to name a few a great mother, amazing sister, wonderful wife, cancer survivor and such a crafty person. Check out some of her latest sewing projects and my beautiful purse she made for me. I love you sis and thanks so much for taking the time to make me such a special gift!

Anyone interested in buying a well handmade purse, let me know. My sister would love to make one for you, at a cost ofcourse :)

23 weeks today :)

She's growing up fast!

Our little princess is getting so big and FAST! These last three weeks, she has gone thru a lot of changes. Potty training, slept in her big girl bed last night for the 1st time and got her toes painted for the 1st time yesterday! We have been looking for a twin bed, but haven't found one yet and with her being potty trained she needed to be in a big girl bed, so we converted her crib for now until we need it for her baby brother. She did really well last night. Only fall out of bed once and was sound asleep on the floor when we went up to check on her.

Yesterday afternoon she asked me, "momma can you toes for paint". She has noticed some of her friends with toes painted and it was so cute when she asked for hers. We went to the store just to pick out her own polish and she enjoyed that :)

JR you will always be our baby girl! We love you and are so proud of you!

Concert in the park

Last night we went down the street to our local concert in the park. JR loves music, so we thought she would enjoy it. She got to stay up late and enjoy! You can see for yourself how much she enjoyed it :) Sorry for the sideways videos, I forgot to turn my phone.

Fun with Estella :)

The past two weeks we have spent some fun times with my really good friend, Maria and her lovely two girls. JR loves spending time with Estella and Victoria and ofcourse Maria too :) So wish I was a stay at home mom so we could have more fun days like these! I got some cute pictures of JR and Estella and thought I would share :)
