A full week of work

This week I worked a full week of work, Monday - Friday :( I missed these smiling faces while at work. I did only work 6 hours each day, still not ready for a full day away yet, Roman or I are NOT ready! I almost forgot how hard pumping milk and trying to keep up with the house is while working. Thanks Tavo for helping and running all the errands this week :) My next goal is to try and work a full day. Work has been slow for Tavo that is why I'm working more. Tavo is working this Monday and hopefully work will start to pick up for him soon! So blessed to have a good job that is flexible!

Tavo's Birthday Weekend!

Saturday we had a babysitter and went out to dinner with friends. This does not happen often, having a babysitter that is. We really need to do it more!!! The dinner excitement, Tavo had his shrimp cocktail spilled on him by the owner of the resturant! Crazy, you would think it was his first day working or something, Tavo got a couple free drinks on the house. Sunday Belita (aka Tavo's mom) came over and cooked us dinner :) I finally know the true way to make enchiladas :) I'll be making more this Sunday, since I have the homemade sauce leftover from Belita to make them :) If I have time on Thursday, I'll make them then! Can't wait to make more chicken encildadas, yummy!

Meeting baby Owen!!!

Congrats to Jessica and Chris on their new baby boy, Owen and Roman's little play buddy! Welcome to parenthood :) He is just precious! Owen was born on March 7th at 10:33am weighing 7 lbs 12 oz and 20.5 inches. We finally got to meet him on Friday :) We were not able to visit before then, because of our sick household.

A short video of Roman playing with his giraffe and parrot friend. I had a longer video but for some reason I can't get it to load :( He really enjoys his time on his gym mat, it's so cute too watch!

Happy St Patrick's Day!

Happy 3 Months Roman!

No one ever told me that time with my second baby would pass by so quickly! Seems like its passing by much faster than it ever did with JR. Roman continues to be sweet as ever and growing like a weed. He is starting to giggle and even showing signs of grabbing at things. He still eats well, but has been a little fussy with the bottle lately. Hopefully that will pass soon as he gets used to me working, it's only the first week and tomorrow will be day four of me back at work. I'm sure he will get used to the routine. He continues to sleep really well, thru the night sometimes going as long as 5 hours before feeding. Usually asleep sometime between 8pm - 9pm. He takes short naps throughout the day, but takes about an hour morning nap while I get ready for work, which works out perfect :) Mucho pictures below along with two short videos of him giggling :)

Starting to get the hang of the bumbo seat, still alittle too small for it yet.
