Nana Elaine came to visit!

My mom came to visit us this past weekend. Alex just loves when she comes out. We had a good, relaxing weekend. Alex was still getting over his cold, but he is doing good now. Thank goodness that is over with!

here are some pictures that my mom and I had taken this weekend! Enjoy!

bath time fun :)




We went to see my Grandmother, so we were at a family dinner with Great Grandma! He was the life of the party of course.


Nana got him a Thomas potty, he loves it, but thinks of it as more of a toy...I dont think he is quite ready for it yet. ;-)


Nana brought him a colorful pillow that she made for him, he loves it, it goes over to it and say "sum" and points to the sun. :)




my sleepy boy. :)


Nana and Alex, love this picture. :)

Elmo!

Our friend's the Miranda's had a birthday party for their little boy Alexander (I know they have good tastes in names ;-) It was a great day, they had Elmo come and play games with the kids that were at the party. All of them were so happy to see Elmo! They also had "Dorothy" fishes on the tables for all the kids to bring home after the party. It was a wonderful day!

Here are some pictures!

Elmo with the birthday boy!

CANCER FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most of you know that my mom has been battling breast cancer for 3 years, she had remission for about a year and then it spread to her lungs last summer. She has been doing a very intense 7 months of chemo and last Monday she had a CT scan. She got the results back today and she is CANCER FREE!!!!! She will continue chemo for a few more months because her cancer marker needs to be at a 38 and right now its at a 59. We are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO happy! It's been a long tough road and we are hoping its the end of that road!

Thank you for your continued support and prayers! Please continue to pray that those markers go down fast and for continued health! :)

Beach day.

We went to the beach this Sunday, it was a gorgeous day, weather was in the high 80's. So we went to Dana Point and ate some snacks and took in the sun. Alex is loving playing in the sand now, whenever we go to the park he sits and plays in the sand and we got him some sand toys, so he now loves it at the beach, which is nice because he used to go terrorize the people sitting next to us, haha, now he sits and digs. :) After went to one of our favorite restuarants for a late lunch, Taco Surf, also in Dana Point and came home and took a nap, it was a WONDERFUL Sunday! haha

here are some pictures!

yay!! we are going to the beach!

we had such a good day! I decided that we are going to go the beach at least once a week this summer, we live too close to not take advantage of it!

Hope you liked the pictures!

Ice cream boy!

Alex can't have lactose, so we got him these tofu ice cream sandwiches, which sound horrible, but actually they are really good! Anyway, we give it to him every now and then as a treat, he loves them, but recently he gets upset because we are feeding it to him, and he wants to do it himself. Because he is SUCH a big boy. ;-) ha. So tonight I put him in high chair and let him at it before bath time.
He didnt make a big mess either, but he was SO happy to do it himself. :)


yummmm..
