Well, I haven't been good at all at posting in here since there is facebook and since I started my new blog (mytwoyearoldtoddler.blogspot.com). Let's start with the first kid of our family of four: Alexis, he turned two and he had a birthday party with the theme of "Cars"; we invited my family and some friends from church that have kids. He had a blast! specially because he got more cars as a gift from us and also he got some from the grandparents! among other cool stuff from friends. He is 3 ft tall and weights aprox. 40 lbs, maybe less now that he is losing some weight. He has gotten used to his sister and we have seen the love between sibling already, he makes sure that she is ok, when she cries he worries and tries to calm her down or tell me to go get her when she is in her crib. He helps me a lot with the little things and I don't even have to ask him (see my new blog), he is a wonderful little boy. Now Charlotte, she has grown quite a bit, she was blessed on April 11th and last time we went to the doctor she was 21.25" and 9.14 lbs. She is still a lot smaller than what Alexis was at this age and she is in the scale 50%/50% I can't believe that she is in the scale!!! Alexis was off the chart in both weight and length since a month old! She is cooing a lot and crying a lot, she likes to eat all the time!!! But she is so adorable, she smiles a lot too so that makes up for all the crying. Now, my hubby and I; we are doing great and finally adapting to the routine of having two kids, now finally feel prepared to say that we want more (there were some days in which I told Cameron that I didn't want to have more, it was out of anger) and it is a relieve to say that we feel that we can do this. I recover a lot faster from this birth than with Alexis, I also walked a lot the day after she was born so I could get better faster! Cameron has been the same since he didn't deliver a child but with a lot of work on his hands, the poor man, but I am grateful whenever I receive help from him. As some people already know, we are moving to Utah by the end of July, so we are very excited and I am very sad at the same time because I will not have my parents nearby and we will be even further from my in-laws.
By the way, my mother in law came to town this past weekend, it was nice to have her with us and to finally have her meet the kids, I wanted her to just enjoy the kids and no worry about helping me but she helped a lot anyway, and enjoy the kids at the same time... I guess she is an expert at doing that since she had 7 kids total!
This week, I feel like my bond with both Alexis and Charlotte is a lot stronger than ever, I love both my kids and I feel like I can't ever let go of them but I know one day I will and that breaks my heart already but that is life, what I can do now is just enjoy them and grow with them!
Well, this was a very short story of what has happened lately but as I said, it is harder now with two kids, two blogs, facebook, the YW, and getting ready to move! not easy but I will try to be better, if not, just check out facebook! it is easier to do on daily basis. Good night!
This is the dress she wore the day of her blessing :)
This other dress she wore the weekend that my mother in law came to town! isn't she a cutie? I love her! :)
And... Alexis trying to put his shirt on and being goofy like usual! he started walking in that position that he was in this picture for few minutes, I guess because we were laughing so hard just by looking at him, he is the silly goose in the family!
