My Sweet Life

Wow!!!

2010-02-05T14:23:00.002-05:00

It's been such a long time!!! I can't believe it's been since August 2009.

Oh well, Happy New Year to all (that's if there's anyone else reading this besides me) I'm so sick right now. I can't even see straight. So if there's any misspelled blame it on the sickness.

My little Baby Mimi will be a year old next week. So sweet. I can't believe it's that time. That makes me so sad.

Feet!

2009-08-07T11:45:00.004-04:00

Baby M finally found her feet. It took her a while but she found them. Both my other kids found their feet way before 6 months. Dee used to suck on them, Ky did too but not as much.

Picture time

I seriously have nothing to say. So I'll just post pics.

34

2009-07-14T12:40:00.002-04:00

That's how many birthdays I've had as of today.

Now that I look at it, I've been in this world for a long time. I don't think I'm old, but if I really think about everything I've done in my life...I'm old! lol

I have so many good and bad memories. The earliest I remember was when I was about 3-4 years old and almost got hit by a car. I remember running out the house into the street, I look to the side and I see this huge car (huge in my eyes) hit the brake and stopping about five inches away from me. I remember not moving. Not being scared. I guess because I was so young I didn't know how dangerous that was and didn't know how to react to it. After that, I see my dad and the rest of the family run out the house to get me.

I have a ton of stories, but I'll be here typing forever. Maybe another time.

So, happy birthday to me! :)

Space

2009-07-09T18:02:00.002-04:00

Not space with the stars and planet but "space" room.

I need more of it. I have too much ribbon, fabric and extra stuff.

Nothing else to say.

Maybe tomorrow I'll do something exciting :D

Our 4th of July by the lake

2009-07-05T13:34:00.010-04:00

Usually, on the 4th of July we go to my brother's house to see the fireworks from the stadium around the corner.

This year, he decided to have a little getaway and we did too. Well, not for a whole weekend but a day. :)

We went with hubby's sister and her boyfriend's family. We had a day full of baseball (we didn't play...we're not into sports) BBQ (with no lighter fluid or matches) and a beautiful day by the lake.

The kids had so much fun. Especially K when she stepped on the wet grass and her legs got splashed with mud. She started crying so much because it was "icky". lol
Never mind that she was playing with a worm two hours prior to that.

Stocking tomorrow!

2009-07-02T22:37:00.006-04:00

I'll be stocking tomorrow, July 3rd, at 1pm! Lil Besos Boutique is a guest vendor for July. Go to Simply Serendipity Congo.

See you there!

Rainy days

2009-07-02T20:45:00.002-04:00

This Summer has been full of rain. Almost everyday since June it has been raining. The last time I remember June being so wet was when K was born in '93. I remember I wanted to go out with her and walk around and dress her up in all those cute outfits she got. But of course, that didn't happen. It rained all month long.

Just the other day around 8pm all I see outside is an orange reflection. The sky was orange, WTH! It was weird and a little strange. I told hubby to go out and take a picture. This was the best he got. As you can see, it's just some weird colors.

Now that I'm not working, I was looking forward to taking the kids out once school was over. So far, that's not happening. I also don't have my car. I can always take the kids to park, but I would like to take them elsewhere that's not around here.

July's here, so we have the rest of this month and next month. Hopefully, the weather clears up. I'm sure when we hit those humid heat waves I'll be asking for some rain. But until then, Mr. Sun...don't hate us and make your lovely presence.

New haircut for K

2009-06-26T22:40:00.005-04:00

She finally got her short haircut. She is in love with her new haircut. It's a drastic change but a good one.

As per her request, I have to keep making hair clips for her. That way nobody confuses her to a boy.

School's almost over

2009-06-22T18:21:00.005-04:00

I need to start planning some activities for the kids this Summer. Last day of school is Wednesday, finally.

I'm thinking beach :)
The park
and maybe the beach again

I'll probably be going with my sister since hubby's using my car for work. Other than the beach, I have to keep it local.

We'll see what else we can do.

Until then, here's a pic from one of our beach outings.

Even beach barbie hangs out with us. She's chillaxing!

Just for you daddy

2009-06-21T01:19:00.003-04:00

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Happy Father's Day!

Grand Opening!

2009-06-19T09:49:00.007-04:00

I finally opened my store, Lil Besos Boutique on Etsy and Hyenacart. I tried to stock as much as I could. Of course I have baby and that took all day. So I'll be adding more in a few days.

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

2009-06-17T15:02:00.003-04:00

I can't believe my little girl is 6 already! She's getting older and I want her to stay little. But of course, that's not possible.

So I'll just enjoy the pictures through the years.

Kindergarten celebration!

2009-06-16T11:40:00.002-04:00

Yesterday, K had her kindergarten celebration. What we didn't know was that it was more like a graduation! When D had his celebration at the other school it was not a graduation. They had games set up for them and parents out on the court. They played all day and got their certificates at the end of the day. That's it. So, with K, I though it would be the same thing.

When we pulled up to the school looking for parking, we see the parents with balloons and all dressed up. I'm wearing shorts and flip flops mind you. We walk in and I don't see any games. They kids started walking in and started singing. Guess what, graduation! Without the cap and gown. I was so upset because they didn't mention it. Yeah it's a different school, but it's in the same district.

Anyway, they sang a few songs and the kids were called up on stage one by one. Leave it to K to be the last one from her class to be called. She tripped and climbed up the small steps. Too funny and cute. She also got a "book-it" award. For reading 20 or more books every month. At least half of the kinder class got it.

We took some pictures. Not enough though. Since we were sitting all the way in the back and they didn't allow the parents to stand up and take pics. Why do that? Obviously, this is something we would like to remember. So why have someone tell you to sit down or lower your arms while trying to take pictures is ridiculous! It was really annoying.

She did enjoy herself. And after the celebration, we took her to IHop to have a late breakfast.

My sweet K

2009-06-14T13:32:00.003-04:00

My little girl will be turning 6 on the 17th. So I've been looking through her pictures and videos. I can't believe how much she's grown and changed over time.

I find it pretty awesome that she likes the same type of music we like. We're in the car and requests her songs. She doesn't know the artists name so she'll sing a bit of the song. Expect for I Love You Airlines. She knows them by name because I told her. Some of the ones she likes, Radiohead, M.I.A., Gossip, Joan Jett, and some ol'school hip hop,lol.

Here she is at about 3 yo. Her version of "Twinkle Twinkle" (crinkle crinkle) And her ABCs

And rocking out...

Hair clips anyone?

2009-06-06T21:32:00.003-04:00

If you remember, I've been making hair clippies lately. No job, more time right. So I've been trying to make them perfect before putting them on etsy.com.
They are testing right now and hopefully, in a couple of weeks I'll be posting them for sale. :)

I'll be updating when the time comes. For now, I'll have Mia, Kyla & Iso sporting the cutest clippies.
