I HAVE BEEN TAGGED!!!

7 THINGS ABOUT ME

1.I Love to eat .Baby showers, weddings or any activities with food I will be there it does not have to be anything fancy as long as I didn’t have to go trough the hard work of preparing and its free but to enjoy it, I will be there..

2. STOP SIGNS!! Oh my gosh this is a very hard for me for some strange reason I don’t always see them even though I try hard to see if there is one coming ah ah but sometimes I try to hard that I stop when I don’t need to and people definitely let me know…HELLO PEOPLE!, this has nothing to do with me this is the way we drive in Puerto Rico there is no such thing as right a ways even for pedestrians. I found out the hard way when I got pulled over for honking my horn and revving my engine at a pedestrian that was taking his sweet old time crossing the street. “You should have saw the look on his face” . (but don’t worry I am now a traffic school graduate of 2008 and now I am an educated driver J)

3. I would have loved to have been a cheerleader. When I was in college I got an offer but I declined I was taking 21 credits and I knew I was not going to have the time. I love the gymnastics part of it and flying in the air and waiting for someone’s mercy to catch me but, I don’t know If I could have ever done this:

all the funny faces and give me a “D” “R” “A” “M” “A”

4. Baby sitting……. Ohh this is a hard one for me I found super hard to leave my kids with someone not knowing their past (yeah I probably will ask for a background check if a have to) plus it is so expensive. I wish I could be a little more flexible with that but I CAN”T it drives Travis crazy. I know I need to do better. If there is any baby sitter out there reading this … this are the requirements but not limited to
a. CPR certified and experience on it with successful results
b. 10years or more experience with kids
c. Sing and dance
d. Criminal background check
e. No texting or talking on the phone while taking care of my kids
f. Cook and I am talking real food
G.5 personal and professional references with phone number and SS#
H. Be ready to call 911 at any time
Just kidding! (but (a) its true)

I know I know Travis hates this oh well…

5. SHORT TEMPER!! uff this is a good one. It’s probably shorter than me. This is something that runs in my family (so its no my fault, DNA). But it doesn’t take me forever to let go. Travis is so patient with me or he just doesn’t understand me because I will tend to talk in Spanish and English at the same time and I can literally expel over a thousand words per minute.

6. Driving Directions N,W,S,E ????? This one is scary I can truly be lost in no time (Travis is the total opposite) I have no sense of direction whatsoever. I always take the longest route possible not because I want to but I guess I must have gotten lost in heaven when they where handing out that ability. Good think I have a husband who was first in line and thanks to GPS technology!!!!!!

7. I Love riding a bike! it is one of my favorites thing to do ever. But I don’t have one! Well I have one but am back in PR. I miss the beach like nothing else I grew up by it.. It was so natural to just go an take walks in the mornings or at night I never though about a place that would not have a beach .Just thinking about the idea that now if I want to go to the beach I need $$$, before it was free, not anymore.. L

Poopo Dance!!

"Stinky,Stinky"

being as modest as she can be on the toilet

Wooooooohooooo!! She is finally ready for Potty Training ..It isn't hard getting her to sit on the potty. On the other hand it is hard getting her to focus on getting down to business. She keeps me tide up with her I didn't realize "potty training required this much patience. I am not able to move until she is done. Meanwhile she will sing and dance this show can take up to 30 minutes!(it drives me crazy but I guess it is better that changing poopy diapers and its cheaper!)... One time she was singing and wanted me to dance so i did, that is when my "brilliant idea" came to the picture to start doing the "POOPO DANCE" she loved it and finally DID IT!!!(went potty). Last Sunday at church i whispered in her ear do you need to go potty? and she scream!!! YEAH POOPOOOOO DANCE ! and as we where walking to the bathroom she was telling everybody about her POOPO Dance ...I was in shock and trying to go as fast as I could not making eye contact with the people in the hallway.When we got there guess what happend?? Nothing....ohh well It is part of it..but it makes me realized that my little Sofi is growing and i am so proud of her ... this is just a taste of how my next ten years are going to be !!.... I guess you don't realize all the little things that come with having a child and being a mom,it really shows me how much you can love your children and to be able to go through everything they can put you through! Love you sofia!! don't get mad at me 18 years latter when you see this post in your baby book...

Too Cute..

I had just gotten home and Travis was staying with the kids for couples hrs. I don't know if the kids were putting Travis to sleep or the other way around, the point is that I got home and I saw the most adorable thing, it was to tempting not to take the picture! The question was, what would have happend if I wouldn't have gotten home in time to help Travis put the kids in bed???

The Country Boy from Colorado an the Island Girl from Puerto Rico

Lets see.... ok Travis and I met in Puerto Rico. Travis was there working for the summer and having so much fun going to the beach every day a and taking advantage of everything my Island has to offer. We saw each other for the first time in a Stake Conference but he was to shy to talk to me, a month went by and we saw each other again at a dance (oh BTW i was invited by another guy but he was late,thanks) It turned out to be perfect for us. Travis didn't hesitate to take advantage of his absence. We had the oportunity to talk and I was very impressed by the way Travis was able to move his hips( he wasn't the tipicle gringo ) We really like each other and decided to take the big risk and start dating. Long story short we kept dating and we got maried 8 months laterand thats how this whole adventure started ..I love you Travis you are the man of my dreams there is no sacrifice too hard with you by my side ...

My Boy...

Woowww we are so in love with our boy...he is everything we could ever want in a "little" boy...he is playful,tough,big,adorable and energetic...He is such a good baby . Jacob Roy you are mommy's BIGGEST love and daddy's boy, ohhh how he loves you! He is excited to see you grow and to take you by the hand and show you the world! We enjoy all the moments we are able to spend with you. You are my baby and a great blessing to me ,I know you are a tough cookie but mama is always going to be here for you whenever you need a lift ...love your mom

My Dream Come true!

Sofia, Sofia, Sofia what an unique little girl... she really brings joy and happiness to our family even though she is in her terrible TWO! She is in a very fun age and we love experiencing it with her.Everything around her is so amazing and she is always so willing to help and be a good girl..We have no complains about her..she is an extraordinary daughter and BIG SISTER! She loves her brother with all her heart ... She is my dream come true ,when i was a little girl my mom bought me this beautiful "Magic Nursery" baby doll which I still love, she was light skin straight brown hair and blue eyes and I used to tell my mom that I wanted to have a real live baby just like her. It wasn't until couple months ago that I realized that my baby doll had came to life with my little Sofi ....You are my dream come true.

Thanks for being who you are and making mommy so happy!

Puerto Rico

Our vacations back home (Puerto Rico) we had such a good time with our family it was just weird being there (i felt like a tourist)with a camara around my waist the whole time trying to capture every little thing to bring back home .Travis kept telling me that i look like a tourist... what!!!! but i did .I guess sometimes in life we take things for granted we really don't count our blessings like we should.
