Beautiful!!

These are just a bunch of pictures. I didn't get any birthday pictures of her myself. I was really busy at her party. But Aunt Diana did get some, so maybe she will put them on here when she reads this.

We had her Baptism and Birthday party all at once.

Also I had Professional pictures taken of her. I think they turned out great!! How couldn't they with such a beautiful little peanut in them. (I am not Biased at all) As soon as I get them I will post them for you all to see.

FELIZ COMPLEANOS / HAPPY BIRTHDAY

BAPTISM

Oh she was so beautiful in her gown. SHe was so good during mass. WHenever she started gettting a little antsy, Father T.J would say AVEA MARIA really loud and it would just captivate her. When she was done getting baptized the crowd cheered and she turned around with a HUGE grin. I wish I had some pictures of her with her Bonnet on. Those will be coming hopefully.

Here's one with Keiko. He is not doing so good right now. He has diabetes, the vet started him on 1mg of insilin X a day. Now he is up to 5mgX a day. I am really worried about him. He is down to 16 lbs. He used to weight 21 lbs. 18 lbs would be about perfect but losing cause he is sick isn't good. He loves his sister. I will leave the room and normally he would follow me, but now he sits right up against her. She doesn't really care for him too much yet, but hopefully he will be around long enough for her to give him some loving back.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

Thought I had better get these on here soon. Or it will be too late.

She is just munchable.

Avea with her newly diognosed diabetic brother Keiko. Yes Keiko has Diabetes, they say because of his bought with pancreatitis, it messed up his Kidneys. Now I get to catch his pee every day (maybe even twice a day) to check to see how much insilin I get to give him, WITH A SHOT!!! I just can't believe this. I thought he was acting funny because of the new little chick in town. But he was hammering the water, I figured something was up. And they also said his pancreous enzymes were elevated too. Probably getting to many extra snacks from the floor. That is going to have to stop, poor little guy.

The next pictures were us in the boat going down the river one last time. Mike thought Avea needed to try it once before we put the boat up. She really didn't care, maybe next year she'll like it better.

Oh My,

I don't know where to start. Sorry I haven't been keeping up with this blog. Life has changed for us. It has turned into a crazy life. I always knew I would fall in love, I just didn't realize it would have happened like this. So fast, So wonderful!! Sometimes I think she might get bruises on her cheeks I kiss and mull her so much. It definately is more work than expected, but work in a good way. BUSY BUSY BUSY, But Busy in a diferent way. I am actually surprised I am up still. IT IS AFTER 11:00 pm.

I feel like the little peanut will get sick of running the roads with me. One more reason I am sure GOD planned her for me perfectly. SHE LOVES TO SHOP!! SHE LOVES SHOPPING CARTS OR STROLLERS, PERFECT!! ( That makes Mike really HAppy)kiddin'

Anyways, I will try to get more pictures. My camera will not hold the batteries in anymore, so it is hard to take pictures.

OOOOHHHH How I LOVE APPLES!!

Mostly HUGE APPLES!!! Apples the size of my HEAD!!!

Today I kissed an angel,

I knew it from the start

The first time my angel smiled at me;

I gave a way my heart.

Today I kissed an angel'

THis angel child of mine

Though not of my creation,

My child by god's design.

Today I kissed an angel,

My heart is dancing wild;

my family, by a miracle;

Blessed by my angel child.

My Child

My child,

I carried your picture with me

since the day I received it,

And dared to love

a child I was yet to meet.

My child,

I carried you in my arms at last,

and gazed in helpless wonder

at your face,

And dared to lose

my heart to you.

And now, my child,

a dream fulfilled,

a prayer answered,

a family created,

I have dared to become

your mom.

And so now,

my precious child,

I shall carry you

HOME.!!
