Whole Foods

So yesterday I didn't get to blog... I was busy getting things ready for my upcoming senior, but I'll share more about her tomorrow.

Today was a pretty slow day, went to the gym, cooked lunch and spent most of the day with my baby. After noon I decided to got to Whole Foods (I try to buy mostly organic) in Monterey, just my son and I. As I drove off from the store, I freaked out because I thought I had driven over something and my tire was deflating...

I drove 20 minutes freaked out to death, with my palms all sweaty... I kept hearing noises and I was very nervous that I was going to have to change a tire...lol well, not really, but that I would be stranded in the freeway all alone with my hungry son crying at the top of his lungs and I wouldn't know what to do.

I guess your wondering why I didn't pull over to check the situation out?... well I know this sounds dumb, but I just didn't want to realize that I might have a flat tire, so I just kept on driving... dumb I know... But eventually after praying for what it seemed like a million hours "please let me get home, please let me get home", I finally got home and.... It was nothing! Just some plastic hitting on the side of the car...

Don't get the wrong idea!

by the way, those are cookie crums on my son...lol

So, yesterday my nephew had a soccer game in San Jose. His dad had to work so my parents and the hubby and I (along with my son) decided we should go support him. We all carpooled in my sisters Yukon... big mistake! For those of you who don't know, I get car sick easily. Since, we where running late because of traffic my sister was driving like the cops where chasing her! I had just eaten breakfast and already felt a little sick and to top it off I felt so nauseous in the car. After the game we went out for lunch, I had a salad from Mc D's... never again! Before getting home, another crazy ride, so by the time I got home... I really didn't feel good AT ALL. I had the worst nausea ever! By the ended of the day... lets just say it wasn't a pretty sight... Thank God that's over with and now I feel much better. So that was my reason for not blogging for the past two days. Well before I go here are some pictures from yesterdays game...

My Inspiration

Did I ever mention how much I LOVE kids? Yes, I do! Way before my son was born. One of my first jobs was working at Sears Portrait Studio. Most of the pictures I took where of big families or kids. That is where I fell in love with taking pictures of babies. When my son came along I could not wait to get my hands on that camera and capture every moment of him. I just love the way he looked so delicate and I knew he would grow up so fast. I love all the little faces he makes and the way he cracks a smile when he's asleep. I love that he thinks he can sit up all by himself and that he has crazy curly hair like I do. But what I love the most is that I won't miss a thing because I can capture every moment of it!

crazzy love

Before I had David, I had such a hard time believing that God could love me so unconditionally. It didn't fit in my mind that after every horrible thing I had done and God was watching me, He would still love me the same way He did before I had done any horrible thing. I always thought "Oh He must defiantly hate me now, I've totally messed up up this time and He's not taking me back."

When I found out I was carrying David I was scared and excited all at the same time. As time past and I began to show, it became more evident that I was really going to have a baby. I felt such a love for him and I hadn't even seen or met the little guy. After He was born I remember feeling so overwhelmed at times because I wouldn't know the reason for his cry and I would just hold him and in my arms and tell him everything would be alright. I can't imagine my little Bean (inside story, ill share latter) being able to do anything that would make me stop loving him.

I finally understand the love that God has for me. That love that it doesn't matter what horrible thing you do, He will ALWAYS love you...

Kids say the darnest things!

My nephew, Elijah, is the funniest kid I've known to this day. He comes up with the silliest questions and answers. The other day I was watching him before he left to preschool, he sat right next to my son and watched him mumble and laugh. So curiously and anxious he asked me, "What is he saying?" I laughed my socks off. He insisted very seriously that my 3 month old baby was trying to tell us something and he wanted to figure it out. To his conclusion he believes my son was trying to tell me that he wanted to go play outside...

Melissa and Oliver ~ Engagement

On May 15, 2009, my childhood friend, Melissa, will be be getting married. I still can't believe it. I look back to all those memories of planing and dreaming of marrying our prince charming. I'm so happy that her day has finally come.

I have know them as a couple for about 5 year now. I just love to see these two and how they have such a strong connection. They are the silliest couple I've met. They really know how to have a good time. Best wishes to Meli and Oli!!!

time flys..

I can't believe it! Three months have passed since my son was born...wow! It feels like just yesterday I was walking around with my belly, my bean, so anxious for him to arrive, yet extremely terrified of the pain I had never experienced.

I will never forget that night... January 21, 2009 at 6:59, David Anthony was born. I could not believe that this little baby boy was in my tummy all those months. I remember laying in bed later that night around 10:00 stairing at him thinking "OMG! what do i do next?"... I was so scared that I would'nt know what to do when I left the hospital. Thank God I have a wonderful, supportive, husband who was there trough it all. LOL, I can't help but laugh thinking about this whole learning process of having a baby in our lives. It has been an expirience I will never forget!

Easter 2009

This year was my son's first Easter. It was also one of the best I've had. My whole family celebrated at my parent's house. It was a beautiful day... very unlike Salinas weather. My dad cooked steak and every else pitched in for the rest. Dad made food for like a million people, I seriously thought we were going to go feed the hungry, because our family is only like 9 people! I, of course, brought dessert...yummy tres leches cake.

My nephews, Daniel and Elijah, are the most adorable little punks ever! They have the cutest personalities all their own. Daniel very serious, so grown up... Elijah on the other hand... well he's Elijah!
