Getting ready for a chilly night out

One Year Old

So, one year ago I was at home wondering why nobody tells the utter discomfort of postpartum life. All that is just a hazy memory as I see a big boy where a little munchkin once waved his arms in helplessness at the bright light or hunger.

i don't think i can do justice to one year of memories, so the last 30 days will have to suffice:
Adrian had TWO birthday parties, one at his 11 month and the other shortly after this 12 month. Thanks to Luis and I- who are always doing more than we should, we took no pictures to document the intimate and fun gathering on 11/2/08. There were animal decorations, balloons, un-iced cupcakes, and tamales everywhere.

Adrian received gifts ranging from clothes to personalized piggy banks to a lap top that is probably faster than our home computer.

He now has one more tooth on the bottom right, is 30 inches tall, weighs about 23 lbs 10 oz and is a funny, dancing, trying-to-walk machine.

I'm 11 months old!


Hello all,


Adrian is only one month away from the big "1". Although this blog is a bit late, we have a good excuse- we were quite busy this weekend at Mani's wedding. The month of September has been quite eventful for Adrian:

1. Cousin Emily came over for labor day weekend and they ate, bathed, played, and toured Chicago together.

2. New York City- We traveled for a couple of days to visit Sophia, Cibeles, and cousin in-vitro. We all got a chance to go to the Bronx Zoo- while Adrian slept through most of it and woke up in time for the zoo to close and enjoy the squirrels instead.

3. Weekend in San Antonio for Mani's wedding. Marah was the Nanny since Momma was one of 13 very busy bridesmaids in the wedding. Tio/Godfather Osiris drove up to sleep at 9:30 PM and then drive Adrian and I to Brownsville.


Adrian is now crawling like a champ- no more belly crawls.


he loves to kiss his momma and daddy.


In the mornings, he spends his time snuggling with both his parents and climbing on top of them.


We are now in Brownsville and Tia/Godmother Lilah is planning an Animal early Birthday party for the PinPon. I think he will be the safari hunter. We went to the Glady's Porter Zoo and he was amazed at the Gorrillas, Alligator, Tiger, Python, Lemur, ducks, and Giraffes which he saw quite up close and personal.


take care,


Isis
