What can be sweeter...

                                                      than a sleeping baby?!?!?!

Happy Saturday!!!

Friday....

It's Friday! Wohoo! Seem impossible that it's already the end of the week...

hubby, prince & I have been feeling quite funky...we're got the bad cold going around...and I have been feeling quite miserable...can't wait to feel better soon!!!

I snapped a couple pictures of our little prince today...so I'm going to share them with you...

He's growing like a weed. He'll be 15 months old in a couple of days...unbelievable

He's sure a joy...and we're blessed to have him...

So, which one is your favorite?!?!!

Have a blessed weekend!!!

Busy toddler

The little prince is the busiest little man on earth :) Today he got into my mother's cupboard and dumped a whole bag on instant mashed potatoes on the floor....and he was so happy to mess in it..

The guilty face!!

Not much later....he unrolled a bunch of toilet paper from the bathroom :0

He thinks it's funny :)

What a busy little guy...
Hope you have a lovely afternoon!

Mother's Day

Hope all you mommies had a good Mother's Day! I had such a wonderful day! I am so thankful for the precious gift of being a mommy!

We went out for lunch at a Churrascaria. It was delicious and we had a wonderful time...

So thankful for my wonderful husband...I love you, babe!

My mommy and I....so thankful for her...She's an amazing woman and I am blessed to be her daughter!

AND...I am thankful for the little guy who made me a mommy one year ago! Couldn't have asked for something more precious! Thank-you Lord for letting me be his mommy!!!

So, how was your day?!?!

Blessings,

Time flies...

My second Mother's day as the mother of prince is creeping around the corner...and I found this picture as I was looking through our pictures from last May! I have to admit that tears came to my eyes...

Unbelievable!!

Where has time gone?!?!

Mommy & prince on Mother's Day 2010

Just a year ago, this little guy was so small. He had just turned 2 months old on Mother's Day last year...
and....
just look at how big he's gotten! In just a year!!!!

He's changed so much! He's not a baby anymore...he is a busy toddler into everything...learning new things every day! I miss my baby :(

I'm working on getting him weaned, so I guess that explains why I am so emotional now days ;( Don't mind me...

I love, love, love being a mother! I am so thankful that the Lord allowed me to be this precious baby's mommy! I am so undeserving...yet HE is faithful! What a precious gift form God is this little prince!!! We prayed so hard for this baby...after losing our first baby. Prince was a true gift from the Lord and has brought so much happiness to our hearts!

Just some thoughts & ramblings from a emotional mommy :) I will get over it soon ...

I love you, prince!!!! I am so thankful I am your mommy!!!

First words......

I hear this all day long now days...smile :) Isn't it fun when they start learning new words?!?! He's started saying a couple new words this week. "No" is his favorite right now, but he does say "ball" a lot too :) Oh what fun it is to be a mommy!!!

Hammock fun

  What's better than a windy afternoon under some mango trees on a hammock?!?! Nothing!!!!

  The lil' prince thought it was the funnest way to spend the afternoon and his mommy couldn't resist snapping pictures ;) Isn't he the cutest little guy ever?!?! Of course I am not one bit biased ;)

Toally lovable, squeezable, huggable and kissable stuff, isn't he?!?! I am so blessed :)

I think I'll go love on him some more :) (grin)

Annddd.... he walks!!!!!!!!

The little prince is FINALLY walking!!!!!!! CHEERS!!!!!!!!!

He just started on Saturday afternoon....and he just took off. Hasn't stopped since...we're amazed...I didn't know he'd already take off like that :) It's adorable...and I just can't get over the fact that he's really walking!

I got a video, as soon as he started walking...this is the second time he walked...so still a little wobbly, but absolutely cute :)

I'm one happy and busy mommy now :)

Our new car ...

So....we finally have our new car and it's already been such a blessing. We've been enjoying using it, and the air conditioning in it is so nice ;) I'm getting quite spoiled. Josh loves it too, he will go to sleep almost every time we turn the air on :) The car is small but it's perfect for our small family...It's already been a huge blessing to us and we're so thankful that the Lord provided for us to buy it.

So, here is our car....

Excuse the little Indian behind the car...I don't know where he came from ;) (BLUSH)

The front of our car

Hubby and I were washing the car on Saturday and we left the little Indian I mean, prince nearby watching us. A couple of minutes later...guess where we found him...yeppers...in the water puddle....Just look at that guilty face when mommy called his name :)

The little Indian playing in the water puddles after the rain...uh oh...:)

We're rejoicing in the Lord's provision and goodness to us!

Hope you have a wonderful rest of the week!

Easter sweetness....

I had a little Easter photo shoot with my little prince...I'm not a professional photographer, mind you..I just enjoy getting pictures, and I dare say I have the cutest subject to work on, soooo therefore...I love it!

Hope you enjoy them as much as I do/did :)

Which one is your favorite?!?! I am having a hard time picking ;)

Blessings!!!

Hello! Wow, it's been quite a while, hasn't it? These weeks have been busy as always, I've thought about blogging many times, but to be honest, I really haven't been inspired to blog :) Maybe it's the many sleepless nights that's been wearing on me ...the little prince has been sick ever since his birthday. That's quite a long time! It started off like a normal flu...fever, coughing, runny nose. We gave him all we knew to, natural remedies, inhalation treatments, and all the stuff  but after almost three weeks it's still wasn't working, so we finally took him to the pediatrician last night. She checked him and said he has a severe throat infection... that explains the reason he hasn't been eating lately :( So, she prescribed antibiotics, and we've started him on that.  We finally got quite a decent night's rest last night, so I'm praying and hoping this will make him feel better. He's been quite miserable, poor little guy!

He wants to be held and cuddled all day....so it's definitely wearing me out!

Annndddd....no, he still isn't walking...not sure when he will decide it's time :) We're waiting....

                                              

PEEK-A-BOO!!!!

A smile...finally :)

Anyways, my days have been devoted to taking good care of this little one and keeping him comfortable.

Since my last post, I have started teaching English to my husband's teacher from the university. I teach on Tuesday's and Friday's from 8-10 am. The little prince stays with my mom for those hours. It's been a really wonderful experience for me, and I have already been able to witness to her during one of there opportunities.
She is going to teach a seminar in Israel in May and she needs to learn English as soon as possible, so I've been working hard with her. It's fun! I've been enjoying it!

 So, that's my life in a nutshell...:)

Hope you're enjoying a wonderful week!

Josh's Birthday party

We had a party for the lil' prince on Friday night. It went very well, until the lights went out :( I was disappointed, especially since we we'rent able to get some good pictures of him with the grandparents and great grandparents :(

I am glad I did snap some before the lights went out...so here they are.

I am happy we had the party and am looking forward to getting back into normal schedule now. I have so much housework to get done this week...so that's what I'll be doing :)

The cake table....a real jungle :)

Another view of the table decorations

The table with the party favors...everybody was able to take a little animal stuffed with candy home ;)

Another view of the favor table

The amazing cake my Mom and I made....LOVED it....

"Ocean water" - Jello :)

Our family...this is not the best picture of me, but hey..that's the only ones we got so bear with me ...and if I look tired...it's because I really was tired....;)

The birthday boy with one of his birthday gifts ;0

Gifts, he got many gifts...mostly toys...I put away a good portion of them...a kid doesn't need that many toys art once :)

Lighting the candle ;)

And that was basically all the pictures we got of this party...sad, I know! I had plans of getting some nice pictures, but that wasn't possible, so....

Hope you enjoyed the pictures ..

Have a wonderful week!
