Babysitting fun!

My mom and I had the privilege to babysit 5 adorable little ones yesterday! We had 6 little ones total :) It was such fun! Little ones crack me up! They're always saying funny things!

We had a lot of time on our hands, so what's better than laying a blanket under a shady mango tree and having a "picnic"?!?!

What a fun time! We had chips, drinks and read several stories!

The kiddo's picnic :)

The 3 J's...look out they can be quite a handful together :)

All the bigger kiddo's (the baby was asleep)

I seriously love little kids!
I love all the hugs and "Can I sit on your lap?" "Read me a story, please?"
And they can be even more random than that ... B asked me: "Can I smell your earrings?"
What is so important about smelling earrings?!?! I don't know :)

What a fun, fun time!  I love babysitting such cuties :)

Easter Sunday best :)

Happy Monday! Hope you all had a wonderful Easter sunday! We had a very nice day.

I snapped a couple of pictures of my lil prince and my friend's adorable children in their easter Sunday best. Oh they looked so cute .... and so springy :)

I can't help but smile when I look at these pictures...

My big guy....look at how much he's growing!!!

Mommy loves you, prince!!!

The four kiddo's together

Another shot...and everybody is actually smiling ;) Wohoo!!!

Aren't they as cute as can be?!?!

Hope you have a wonderful week!

....Cousins....

Erika & Joshua

This week, Erika (Alex's niece) came to stay with us for a couple of days. Her mother is in the hospital with her little sister who has pneumonia, so we're keeping Erika during these days. Josh has been really enjoying having her around! She is so patient with him and loves to play and tickle him! He sure enjoys it! He hasn't been feeling very well, he's got a nasty cold and is coughing a lot, but having Erika around has made him a little happier, so that makes mommy happy also ;)

I LOVE SMILES

                                                                     DON'T YOU ?!?!?!
Being a mother is so much fun! I am enjoying it so much! It's especially hard to resist such a sweet smiling face :)

My life...

I know all I basically post is pictures of Joshua! Well, the fact is that this little fellow is my life :) I have the privilege of being with him 24 hours a day and what a joy and amazing challenge it is! I enjoy every minute of it!
He's growing so fast! Seems like it was only yesterday when he was born! A reminder to cherish the moments...soon they will pass by.
Anyways, I snapped some pictures of him today and thought I'd post them on here. I never get tired of snapping pictures, especially when the object of my "snapping" is someone so handsome as this little guy :) Of course, I am not one bit biased ;) Here are the pictures:

   Daddy was sitting in the rocking chair while holding him. Notice the mangoes in the tree right behind Josh. They will be ripe soon! Yummy!














He can almost sit up by himself now, but he can't hold up his back too long. Daddy was helping him in these pictures! He loves the ball . He and Judah Lockhart were playing with the ball for a little while today...






We've been keeping so busy lately. My sisters head back to the USA on the 10th, so we're trying to prepare ourselves to say good-bye once again! (NOT an easy thing to do!) I do not like good-byes :( But, I am so thankful for the time we were able to have together. The summer went by so fast!
I started teaching piano and that's going well and keeps me even busier, but I have been enjoying it!
Our cold season has ended now and it got so dry and hot all of a sudden! At least it is much nicer than the very cold season!
 I hope you all have a blessed day!

Mother's Day!

Mommy and Josh on Mother's Day morning :)

Isabelly

I got some pictures of Isabelly yesterday... She is so adorable and learning more every day. She is starting to chat up a storm, so it was a little hard to make her be quiet long enough for me to snap some pictures :)
