June 10 FUN FUN FUNThis weekend I spent all of Saturday with Grandma and Grandpa.We went to Milliken Park and had an ice cream, we also went for walks and shopping.
Grandma made me those yummy meatballs for dinner and I even got to stay up late.
Today Mommy and Daddy bought me a DORA pool and I was splashing around all afternoon.
I had a BLAST of a weekend!!! May 09 Almost a month later...Okay so it has been a long time, but who would have known that raising a child and working full time was so time consuming?LOL
VAnessa is now 13+ months old and she is crawling, pulling herself to a stand and even taking steps when holding her hands. SHe thinks she can let go and walk on her own, but not yet! SHe has her own language, don't know what it is but she does have some words she uses a lot DADA being her favourite. SHe says Bella ( a friend's dog), Kayla (daycare child), Hi!, Bye!, OH OH, NO!, MAMA, TWEET TWEET ( bird), OOK( book), andmany more weird sounds, that I haven't yet decipher!
The best part of all is the one that causes Mom the biggest headache, 12 teeth!!
Yes you read correctly, that means that so far the wonderful little fairy has been around these many times! Trust me its no picnic!LOL
But she is a sweetheart who loves animals and is always SMILING. If I know one thing and one thing only? I have done one good thing in my life and that would have to be VAnessa. When you meet her, you'll love her too. SHe is so sweet and so happy. You know she caresses your cheeks when you tell her to be "soft" and after teaching her about combing her hair if you tell her to make you look "nice" she will comb your hair. I love her with all my life- and I know you know this but it is nights like tonight that I think I am so lucky to have her.
That despite the stretch marks, the belly fat and the orange peel skin, I have one wonderful little person to hold at night and there is only one of her. Tonight I saw 4 girls my age in such great shape, and talking about their trips to Dominican and their tan lines and the latest club. I felt a dagger through my heart, thinking I feel like I am 50 years old around them, and I look it too. I think my mood has never dropped so far and so instantly. So I drove home from the pool with a very long face only to hear a little mumble over the Baby Monitor and my eyes lit up and I was happy again. What a wonderful little being, that can make you forget everything bad in this world and can only push you to be your best and do your best, a little person that brings out the best in you, LOVE!
I love you MONKEY!!!!
January 25 Not much... Hello Everybody! Thank you for still coming around, I love to read the comments, even if I am not blogging much. I promise I'll get back into it and I'll do a tour of MSN Spaces and visit you soon- promise!What has been happening so far? Not much, life has kinda slowed down a bit, thank God!
Vanessa started to go to the daycare last friday, she went for an hour and twenty minutes. I have to tell you it wasn't too easy and I did hesitate the entire time. I missed her and noticed the difference but I am doign very good. I am taking her again this Friday but for a little longer, this way she gets used to it more. She really likes it there, and she loves the animals there too. Vanessa's favourite show is ZOBOOMAFOO, so I think that is why she is so drawn to animals. I will have a video of her probably next week and I will post it, so keep checking.
This weekend I am making a whole bunch of baby food with Vanessa's Grandma and I can't wait. I am even gonna attempt applesauce!
WEll, I thought I'd share another song with you, this is an awesome song. Vanessa loves it and she actually seems to like SHAKIRA! Yeah, I found that so funny, she sings to her music everytime I put it on, specially when it is in Spanish! LOL
Scroll down to the Music List to find the song SHAKIRA's LA PARED, I am including lyrics for you to follow along. MUAHH! and thanks for coming by!
Shakira ~ LA PARED
Eres como una predicción de las buenas Eres como una dosis alta en las venas Y el deseo gira en espiral Porque mi amor por ti es total Y es para siempre Después de ti la pared No me faltes nunca Debajo el asfalto Y mas abajo estaría yo Después de ti la pared No me faltes nunca Debajo el asfalto Y mas abajo estaría yo Sin ti Eres la enfermedad y el enfermero Y ya me has convertido En tu perro faldero Sabes que sin ti Ya yo no soy Sabes que a donde vayas voy Naturalmente Después de ti la pared No me faltes nunca Debajo el asfalto Y mas abajo estaría yo Después de ti la pared No me faltes nunca Debajo el asfalto Y mas abajo estaría yo Sin ti January 04 Did you say HAPPY new year?So the Christmas holidays were great, as you can tell by the few pictures I have posted but its not all fun and games. Let me tell you.
2006 came with a BANG!, at least in our house. Let's see... so far Michael (hubby) contracted the flu (influenza) and spent most of New Year's eve in the emergency room and got home at 11pm. He has been sick since Boxing Day and he is finally feeling well enough to return to work tomorrow. But wait, that's not all!
Yesterday I booked an appointment with Vanessa's pediatrician because the last week or so she hasn't been herself and her appetite is out of whack. I was running late for the appointment and, as I was trying to tighten the straps of her car seat
and hand her a toy at the same time... I JAMMED and TWISTED my right thumb. I thought I'd broken it and it was so painful I started to cry and so did Vanessa, I guess I scared her. So out we go, to the doctors. I am driving and trying to keep an ice bag on my hand, Michael trying not to feel car sick and at the same time calm down an upset baby. So we headed to a walk in clinic where we spent the next 2 hours, to find out I sprained my thumb. Take a look, the bruises came out today and it is still swollen and it still hurts.
So how does this happen? Who did we piss off so much, to get a New Year like this? Who knows?
There are ONLY 2 good things that have happened so far and one is that nothing was wrong with Vanessa
and the doctor was very pleased with her. The second good thing is that I got a tattoo, I'll post pics later. So... HAPPY NEW YEAR?, uhmm, not too sure!
December 28 HOLIDAY UpdateNovember 23 Let it shine!
September 28 SURPRISE! SURPRISE!This morning, Vanessa and I had a visit from a FAIRY I think you all know very well...
You guessed it! Vanessa's first tooth !!!
I noticed it just a little while ago, while I was wiping her chin and I thought it was spit up. Well I put my finger in her mouth and guess what? Its sharp, ouch!! So I tried to take a picture but let me tell you, it wasn't easy. So here is the best I could do...
Can you see the white tip where it ripped through? I cannot believe it! Just yesterday she was a little bundle that did nothing but looked at me with those huge green eyes while cooing and now, she is as alert as ever, active and with a tooth!
WOW!
As you might have noticed, she has two (2) bumps, so the other tooth cannot be too far behind
Here we go again! September 27 UPDATING...I am currently updating my site, please look around and make sure to leave your mark in my guestbook!
I will be re-posting pictures of Vanessa, so come back soon! September 01 a belly full of laughs!
