MERRY CHRISTMAS


Alright, I couldn't wait to post these pictures, Danny looks so adorable, he looks like a little angel. I cannot believe that we are so blessed with so many things but specially with our son. We are moving to another apartment complex at the end of the month so we have a lot of things to do, this is the main reason I m posting the pictures of Danny, I can't say I will blog anymore during this month but I will try. It would be great if we could take a picture of the entire family, so if we get that picture I will definitely post no matter how busy I am. I hope all of our friends and family feel joy, love, and peace in their hearts this month. We wish you all a Merry Christmas!

SO MANY THINGS

Wow, it has been a while I know, but we have been busy busy busy. Danny has his teeth coming out and he gets pretty fussy. But he is still a very happy boy overall, it seems like as he gets older the more energy he has to get into stuff/trouble. Our family went to Utah two weekends ago, it was a lot of fun, Danny and I stayed for a week and we just got back two days go, we were way happy to see Dan. For those who don't know my older sister Karen is getting married!!! we are excited for her and her fiance Michael Zaro, they are so in love, and so happy, we wish them the only the best! Other good news: Daniel has two more weeks of school and the semester is over!!!


Danny is a very lovable boy, he is so darn cute, his laugh is so catchy and makes everybody laugh, and his smile melts my heart. Daniel and I are so proud of Danny, we are so thankful for him, we are grateful for our everlasting love, and specially for the gospel. While our stay in Utah Danny got some cute outfits from the grandparents and my cousin Edith's family, so today we went outside and took some pictures of Danny. He loves grabbing the leaves and of course, everything he touches goes to his mouth. I m sad the winter is getting closer, not just because I don't like the cold, but mainly because Danny loves going outside and we won't do it often at all when the winter comes...I will just have to find activities for him to do, that will
be fun.






*We have taken Christmas pictures of Danny but we won't show it just yet......can't wait for all of you to see it!!!!!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween everyone!! Danny did not get dressed up for Halloween this time, maybe next year though. I know some people were probably expecting Halloween pictures but we decitded to take pictures anyways because he is now 5 months old! It has been crazy around here trying to catch up with Danny, I cannot longer leave him for more than a couple of seconds, he is now a master at doing his army crawling, he does is so fast, when he wants something he goes for it, if it is something I don't want him to touch I call his name and he looks at me serious then when I turn around he quickly crawls towards the object he wants, if I m lucky and I catch him I call on his name again and he looks up and slowly puts the object in his mouth, so little and he is already testing his limits haha. He is a very fun child to be around, he is always happy unless I took away something he worked so hard to get his hands on. The big challenge right now is changing his diapers. He turns and wants to roll, touch his feet or go on his tummy and he is a strong boy!! so now changing his diaper takes a lot longer than it should. Before I forget I wanted to share with all of you how happy we are as a family, Daniel loves Danny so much and it is so fun watching them play and make each other laugh; we are so blessed to have a healthy son, and the gospel in our lives. I want to take a few seconds and Thank our families (Daniel's and mine) who have loved us always and supported us in many ways but specially emotionally. I miss my family in Utah so much and I think about my family everyday and how much they have done for me all my life and that are still doing for me. I hope they know that I have great respect for them specially for my parents, they are a huge example for me. I love my relationship with my Mom and my Daddy has always been so kind and so loving towards me, him and my mom always speaks to me with love.
As a family we are going to visit my family in Utah sometime in November, we are all so excited because Daniel hasn't been able to visit because of how much he has to do at school and work. We can't wait!!!

A great week

Danny and I are having a great week! My Dad and my brother Kevin came to our home last weekend to spend time with us and to pick us up to spend a week in Utah at my parents house. It was nice for Danny because he got to see family and he sure loves the atention! but it was also good for me because I was able to relax somewhat, my parents made sure that I came to relax, not to clean or run errands, I needed it and I feel like I have more energy to keep taking care of my sweet and super energetic son. I love coming to see my family, but I never forget about my dear Daniel, I have missed him so much and everyday I picture myself running towards him and giving him a big hug and a kiss, I can't wait to do just that when Danny and I go back home on Saturday.

4 MONTHS OLD!!!

Teething?

I m sure most of you have heard that Danny now rolls to his tummy and can do an army crawl! We are so proud of him, we heard most babies are not able to do that until they are at least 6 months, and he learned it all just before he turned 4 months. He is such a sweet boy but lately he has been pretty fussy, he doesn't want be be on the floor or sat down or on his swing, he wants to be hold by mommy and chew on anything he can get his hands on. The doctor seems to think he might be teething, he bites and drools and chews a lot. Yesterday he was very upset, I picked him up and he grabbed my face and bit my chin! it hurt a lot, so I pulled away and he grabbed it angrily and bit it twice, needless to say it still hurts a little. The other thing is that now that he is getting older, it is a lot harder to keep him entertained! he plays by himself pretty good but just for a little bit, he gets bored at the apt, and he only calms down if I take him outside or if I visit people, or they visit us. He loves meeting and seeing different people. It is interesting seeing his personality show a lot more as he is growing, Dan and I know for a fact he will have a hard time when we have a second child. But I hope to give all my kids all the attention they need and deserve. We love being parents, and although I m always tired, Heavenly Father always blesses me with the energy and patience I need to take care of Danny like I should. Well, you can see on these pictures he isn't very excited to be sat down, on the first one he is reaching for me to pick him up, I love the second one, he has discovered that he can touch his feet a couple of weeks ago and just loves grabbing them! It has been a while since we posted so I had tons to say, hopefully I will get back on track and post weekly.

We are so grateful

We had an incident last night, baby Danny stopped breathing for a little while, we took him to the hospital and he is alright now, needles to say, we are so grateful for our Heavenly Father, grateful for the gospel, and so grateful for our son, moments like the one on this video, makes us appreciate so much more what we have. Danny is such a big blessing in our lives. We are so happy for his quick recovery.

Great family time!

Labor Day

It was so nice that labor day was on Monday because Daniel had the day off. Danny and I got to spend all day with Daniel. We invited some friends over for dinner and a movie, it was a lot of fun, specially for me because I love and need to socialize, being at home all the time with baby Danny is the best but I also like visiting friends, going on a walk, taking Danny on a stroller ride....it's a good balance, it keeps me happy and Danny loves going outside.

Cute baby Danny

To my wonderful husband

It has been a little over a year since Dan and I got married, it has truly been the best decision I could of made. I want to dedicate this slide show to my husband, he makes me so happy. I can't ever thank him enough for how much he loves me. I have been so blessed. I can't wait for the many years to come, because I know our love will grow and grow. I love you Dan.

My cuddle Friend

Danny looks older than most babies his age. He is so cute and a big mama's boy, he is very attached to mommy and wants to be held all the time! Now that Daniel has a break from school and is only working, Danny gets to see him a lot more and little by little he is getting more use to his daddy. Well, as you can tell Danny does not like wearing hats, and always screams at first when I put it on, then he whines for a couple of seconds, and then he is totally fine with it, just as long as I don't touch it, play with it, or try to fix it.

Surprise!!

You will probably be just as shock as I was........but at least he won't get as hot anymore.

SEVEN WEEKS OLD

To all of our family with love. I filmed this after changing his diaper, so he was pretty content.

Daniel use to post things on our blog but now I will be doing it. Our son Danny is 7 weeks old!!! he is growing so fast. Everyday he changes, but he is always a sweet baby. We are so happy to be parents. I love being a mom, I m so happy with my life and with my little family. I m so glad I was part of bringing him to this world. Danny is just so adorable, he smiles a lot more, and sometimes he giggles! There are a lot of babies in my ward that were born close to our son's due date and they are all smaller than he is! we love him so much. He still has a lot of hair, everyone keeps telling me that it is all going to fall off, but so far, only a little has come off, so I guess we will have to see! Well, so far, he sleeps about 2-3 hours at a time during the day, and after midnight, 4 hours. So it isn't much but I m getting use to it, sometimes while I m giving him the bottle I fall asleep and when I wake up, he is looking up at me with a sad face, and his bottle is by his ear and the milk is going down his neck!! I feel so bad but it has only happened twice...., and yes he has shot his pee at me while I m changing his diaper, but only at the beginning, now I think I m getting the hang of it, or maybe it's just luck. Well, this was just a little update, but I will try to keep posting often!

The first thing Daddy does when he comes home is tell his son how much he loves him and gives Danny a big hug. This is also nice for mom since she sometimes doesn't get to take as many breaks during the day as she might like.

Grandma was so happy to come and finally meet her first grandson. This is such a good picture!!! He obviously loves being held by his grandma.

We still are unsure what is going to happen to his hair! When we give him a bath and wash it, it is real straight, but then when it dries, this is how it looks. We both would love for him to have curly hair, even though he would hate it later on. I mean come on, chicks dig a guy with curly hair, right?

Look at how big his feet are!!! Don't let this photo fool you, he is not a fan of being put in his car seat! However, once we start driving he is just fine.

WOW!!! Three weeks after having the baby and she looks great!! This was sat b4 we blessed the Daniel. He loves being held by his mommy.

This is right after sacrament mtg when we blessed the baby. One of the family friends of the Villars came to be there for us as well. As a side note, Blake at the top left served his mission in Peru and met the Villars while they were living there.

Boy, when he gets a bath he is a handfull, but when mommy washes his hair and then puts him in the towel, he is as content as can be.

This is when mom came for the weekend we blessed Danny. She brought a swingy chair for us to set him in and he loves it!!!

This is obviously where little danny chills most of the time. Either there or in our room. He loves to sleep on his tummy, he almost instantly goes to sleep after being fed when we lay him in this position.

This is after his first bath at home. He LOVES to have his hair washed. Everything else he hates and boy does he let us know!!!! What a little cuttie.

In just a week he opens his eyes and looks around all the time. Sometimes if you are lucky, he'll look you straight in the eye...it pierces deep when he does.

This was this past wed. when we took him to the Docter for the first time. He hates getting put into the car seat but once he is there, well...pictures speak a thousand words.

This was his little bed while we were in the hospital. We were there all Sat and Sunday and left in the middle of the afternoon on monday.

Isn't he the cutest thing that you've ever seen?! He smiled on his first day here with us. Now, he smiles a lot bigger and all you can see are his gums, he is so precious.
