Bitter-sweet

I am so excited and kind of sad about the following:
I will no longer be watching my niece every day :(
I am so sad because I really had a blast doing this. My niece will be starting preschool soon and my sister had another baby and his dad is going to take care of him while my sister is at work.
As i stated I'm also excited because that means I can go and do lots of things and errands with my son, instead of struggling with two.

I wish I could always watch these two cousins because it was an experience I will always cherish. I am so thankful for this opportunity. <3 I can't wait to keep teaching Timothy all that I know.


Good night my friends!

Almost two.

I can't believe you're about to turn two! You make me so proud to be your mommy.
Thank you for being so sweet, funny, and adventurous. When I look into your eyes I know that you were meant to be a part of our family and I'm so thankful for that. I love you sweetie!


<3 your mommy

Almost 2!

I can't believe my son is about to be two years old in two months! Eek.. where does the time go?

This boy is so active and funny that sometimes I can't help but to smile at his silliness. He is learning so many words and so many new things that it's hard to keep up with.

There's not a day that goes by that you don't make me smile and laugh next to my little guy. Timothy truly gives meaning to my life.

I am so excited that Timothy is finally getting a little better each Sunday in nursery. He cries less and less each Sunday. (I am praying hard that his separation issues go away and he starts enjoying it more)

Timothy seems to be loving playing with any ball..He mainly loves to play with his basketball and hoop that he got for Christmas.

Did I mention he loves to play with cars and go to the park!

I am so excited for him to keep growing and learning more and more. It's so much fun being able to stay home and take care of my son, I feel so blessed for this opportunity. I will be posting more pictures very soon.. Time to go to bed! night!

A letter to you.

TIMMY!!
I love you so much. You are the cutest boy I have ever seen and met. I am thankful for the opportunity to raise you. I am going to teach you everything I know and I hope to be the best mom I can be. I love you to the moon and back. I can't believe we've been blessed to have you for 13 months now. You can always make me smile even if I don't feel good. Your dad and I always thank the Lord for giving us such a special and unique boy. I am beyond grateful to have you as my son. I have seen you grow and grow and you're just too big now!! It's such a special feeling to know that your Daddy and I get to raise you and be your parents. It's so fun to play and take care of you. You love to take out all your toys and make a mess. You crack me up, once you take out your toys you leave them and follow me all over the house. I think it's adorable how you love to be by my side ALL THE TIME. It can be exhausting but I love it. I hope you always know that you are a precious child of God that loves you very much. I want you to always stay little and cute but I know that you will keep growing. I just want to soak up all the sweet moments and press pause. Baby I love you and I hope you know Im a proud mother. Love you very much Timothy. You are my everything.


Love you!

10 month old baby !

Isn't my Timothy looking so handsome more and more every day? We sure do love him to pieces and although he's been everywhere and unstoppable at times he fills our life with joy and gives us more meaning. I honestly can't believe my sweet little boy is going to be 10 months this week. Where does the time go? He is growing fast like the weeds in our backyard.. Ha ha. At ten months he's: 1. crawling everywhere 2. getting into everything he shouldnt 3. very ticklish 4. loves to eat all sorts of foods 5. going poop too much! 6. sleeping the 12 hrs a night 7. takes two naps a day 8. very playful 9. being very active 10. loving his walker to get around 11. is into opening and closing books 12. takes down all our DVDs 13. keeping mommy very busy 14. hard to photograph because he wont sit still 15. he need to be in bed by 8 pm or its a total disaster 16. he weighs around 21-22 lbs (according to our 9 month visit) 17. 30 inches long. 18. has a big head measuring at 18 inches! 19. has the cutest giggle/laugh 20. has the cutest chubbiest, most kissable cheeks! I love my timmy! He is turning out to be quite the little boy. He has completely stolen my heart and I love spending all my time with this cutie! We love to take walks and watch movies. He's also really into the park right now. Last night we went to the park by my house and he was laughing so hard on the swing (completely melted our hearts) We love our bubs!!!! <3

Sleepy time

Right now I am babysitting both of the babies and they are both sleeping like peaceful angels. I love moments like this. In case you didn't know my sister had a baby in June and I am helping her while she goes to work. I've been working twice as hard with two little babies but it is totally worth it. I am thankful that I can be at home raising these little angels :) I love the sweet spirits babies bring into the room. I feel so close to my Heavenly Father. Have a great Wednesday. I am so excited for the weekend.

First month with baby

I have a confession. First month with the baby was the hardest experience I've experienced in a while. Let me explain. First off I had to have a C-section and it was tough for me because I have never spent so much time in the hospital nor have I ever had surgery. Not only did I have to recover from major surgery now I had to care for a new life! :) A blessing that I'm very grateful for (we had been praying for a little one ever since we got married). All I'm saying is that having a C-section is a lot of pain and it takes much longer to recover from a vaginal birth. I've heard this from many women I know personally so I'm not just making this up. The next reason why it was so hard is I think the first month you worry so much about the baby and you are new and constantly learning every day. I still am learning but now I'm more in a routine and Timothy has a much better schedule now. I am not complaning I am just being honest because truth be told this is the biggest change that's occured in my life besides getting married. It takes me a while to adjust to change but once I get it down I feel like I accomplished something great. I am so happy and proud of my hubby and I. We are raising a beautiful child, and living in our dream house. I am very thankful and I can't believe Timothy is about to be 4 months old in two weeks. :) We love you so much Timothy and I love seeing your smiley happy face every day. Thanks for being such a good boy.
