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.

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!
