Yes, I realize it's not Tuesday... but I found this while visiting some blogs doing the WW... I picked out my picture to do an intro of my kids.. when I realized that this is a Tuesday thing... oh well I'll get it right next week

This picture was taken in December sometime before the 12th.

My eldest is *XaXa or Professor X (he just started wearing glasses in mid 2007) He'll be 8 in Aug. He's a 2nd grader.

Then there is *Aya* my princess. She'll be 6 in May. She's a Kindergardener.

And my sunshine *Mari. SHE'LL BE 4 on the 29th of this month!!! She's my little preschooler.

I have one more child, a baby. He just turned 3 months old on the 12th. We call him baby *Rico (for internet safety)! I'll post of a picture of him next week or you could scroll down to my WW post.

My beloved husband was peeling and chopping potatoes for our pot roast when he looked inside one potatoe this is what he saw....

of course he had to take the picture right next to our candle holder (which is in the form of a cross)... jaja!

...The above picture is a picture of a "baby carnival" my kids decide to do for our baby *Rico*...

(notice the baby in the toy stroller... That's!.. my baby!!)

Here's a better picture of baby *Rico* in the stroller... he is such a trooper for putting up with his older brother and sisters!

PLEASE forgive me for the large pictures... no matter how small I made them they still came out huge when I uploaded them here  go figure!

MERRY CHRISTMAS and

HAPPY NEW YEAR

from Mi Familia to Yours!!!

          I know I'm a few days late in announcing and sharing this wonderful new addition to our family, but as you all should know many changes are happening in our little home. Well, to the good part, our new bundle of joy was born on December 12, 2007 at 2:28 p.m. He was 8lbs. 8oz and 20 inches long. He's my biggest baby, yet. He is beautiful. He is our Youthful Gift of God.

  ...after 39 weeks Mami meets baby

     I'm so sorry I didn't post any new updates sooner... but all is good with Baby. The ultrasound was normal... Praise God! I have less then 40 days to go...  and . It's one of those things where I'm really excited and really nervous all at the same time. Thank you all for keeping me and Baby in your prayers... May God bless you all. 

GREAT WEBSITE or so I say... I had been surfing on the net for any cool new ideas on how to start a chore chart or something like it... Something to get my kids motivated in doing their chores without the whining and complaining... I found www.handipoints.com ; I love this site! It's free to sign up. You can create your own charts on the site, print them out if you like. Your children receive an animated cat as their icon. They can earn points to "buy" clothes for their animated cats or you can make up a reward list. It's fun! It's cool! And my son is really motivated.!!!

Yes, it's true!.. we are expecting our fourth child  ! ! ! Baby's due date is Dec. 19, 2007 but I have not yet made it once to the due date. I'm excited and also overwhelmed and nervous. Dec. is just around the corner and I feel as though I'm not one step closer to being prepared for a fourth child  . Anyways, keep baby and myself in your prayers, my last appointment I had an ultrasound done and the nurse find a spot on the baby's heart. She was not able to tell me what it was, therefore, she referred us to a specialist. Our appointment is this coming Tuesday, Aug. 21. 

Thank you and God bless you all. 

I'll keep you posted!
