Visit to the Dentist

Vanessa is so brave! I personally HATE the dentist and the thought alone drives me insane. Vanessa on the other hand, has never had a fear for the doctor or the dentist! She keeps her eye on the reward! I don't care how many stickers,toothbrushes, lollipops, and toys I'm offered, I just HATE the dentist. Vanessa you are my hero!!!

Vanessa had her teeth cleaned and had 3 x-rays. We were happy and proud to hear that Nessa has extremely clean teeth and the her adult teeth coming in look straight! Go Nessa!!

Big Bear Lake

We want to give a BIG thanks to Kevin and Brandi for inviting us to Big Bear Lake! We had been up in the mountains and played in the snow before, but NEVER had been there while it was snowing! It was beautiful!!!We had tons of fun and can't wait to do it again! XOXO








This was Bear's first trip anywhere! I was a little nervous since we were going up so high and in cold weather. I was so surprised on how well Bear did! He was such a good Baby and spent most of his trip sleeping or hibernating in true bear fashion!! We did manage to get him out in the snow once or twice and here he is!

5 Months old!

Baby Tony (A.K.A. Bear)is growing oh so fast! He started on solids and his favorite so far is green beans and bananas! But the real bananas, not baby food! LOL He is full of love and still loves to cuddle up. He is such a good baby! We are so lucky. I am still trying to get him to sit up on his own but he is a bit lazy!! He rolls over to the left and manages to get on his tummy but then he is upset because he hates tummy time!
Here is a pic I captured with my cell phone of Bear trying to sit up!

Siblings...

They are already becoming so close and bonding so much it's a beautiful thing to see your children grow up together. Awww, I'm so in love.... Last night they both cuddled up on the couch and called it a night. It was so cute see our two babies sleeping together, we just had to capture the moment.

Disneyland for Vanessa's Birthday

Just a few pictures from Vanessa's Birthday at Disneyland. It was an amazing day!!!!




Vanessa's 4th Birthday

Can't believe our little Princess is 4 years old. I walked in her room this morning and started singing the Happy Birthday song to her. As she opened her eyes, she smiled at me and said: "Mommy! Do I look 4 now???" I hugged her and kissed her and said: "YES! You do look 4 now!!" She was so excited. Vanessa has grown up so much in the past year, it's amazing! She is so smart and her personality just shines everyday! We are so proud to call her our daughter! We love you Nessa!
