Summer so far

So far (and knock on wood) Sonny has been the best baby. He is a good eater and an even better sleeper...we'll see how he does once he starts coming out of the newborn coma. He is the sweetest boy and is already experiencing what it is like to have a big sister.

It was great to have Mom & Dad here, Rosabelle had so much fun having picnics outside with Grandpa and taking walks with Grandma. They also went to the Zoo and got to meet the Latina icon that is Dora.

Danny and I just had our 6 year wedding anniversary. We celebrated when the 'rents were here so we could leave the kiddos and go out to a nice dinner, but Danny did get me some beautiful blue hydrangeas like we had at our wedding.

And Rosabelle finally got her stitches out! She was kinda freaked when the doctor was coming at her with the tweezers, but she was a brave girl. Afterward she just kept saying "that was pretty scary". Now we have been talking about scars and how everybody has them, but I'm thinking a few months down the road and we won't even be able to see hers, especially once her eyebrow grows back.

Other than that we are just trying to enjoy our first summer on the West side. So far, so good.

Happy 4th of July! We are having a pretty mellow Independence Day staying in, but we are hoping we'll be able to see some fireworks off of our balcony tonight. Sonny is 6 days old and has just been a joy so far. Rosabelle is just loving him and is being the cutest big sis always wanting to hold him, cover him up and put her stuffed animals all around him. She got a trike for her birthday and has been taking Cinderella out for rides. This has been a really special and amazing week. We are so glad that Mom has been here to help. We have lots to be thankful for, but mostly thankful to not be pregs anymore.
