Big Day

Grace had a very busy day.

  • we changed her carseat to facing forward

  • She got a haircut technically for first time

    She wasn't sure about it
    Then she got scared & started screaming crying. My poor baby!
    & finally after tears, she was her happy self again.
    Doesn't she look adorable?
  • & we got her a potty seat.


& this is how she was at the end of the day!!!




Happy Weekend

My sister in law Marsha came from Colorado to visit for the weekend, we have a full filled days with fun & food & workouts & Zumba classes & much much more.

The weather in Arizona is GORGEOUS this time of the year!

Saturday

We went to get haircuts & after that evening I went by myself to met some friends at the 5K Skirt Chaser run, when I got home David cooked a delicious steaks on the grill, we had dinner and then I went to my friend Beth's house to watch a movie (Whip it - Excellent, 100% recomendable)

I love my new haircut!



My good friends Lori & Beth

Sunday

We spent Valentine's day at the Peach Blossom Celebration @ Schnepff Farms. They had tours to the orchards where you can see the blossoms, a petting zoo, train rides & off course peach pie ( We didn't get to eat it since we had brownies, cookies, cheesecake, etc ...) but it looked delicious. :)

I took some pictures, Gracie fed the animals at the petting zoo & after that we went home to take naps to get ready to go to the gym, David & Marsha to play tennis, Gracie to play at the childcare center and me to get some very much needed exercise.

# 10 on 10 :: February 10 #

10 pictures on the 10th day of the month!

(Document a snapshot of your life and find beauty amont the ordinary things in your day!)


Good morning sunshine!!!



What a better way to start a good day than with a fresh brewed cup of coffe!



And a delicious bowl of cereal!


Today was my mom's birthday!
(I tried to take a picture of my phone showing her name but my camera is not the best just to document that we did call her to say Happy Birthday, actually Grace learned today how to say "abuelita" which means grandma in spanish)


Jr. & Grace were so ready to take a nap!


Awake from her nap and ready to play!

She woke up in such a good mood & played with August the whole time until his mom came to pick him up.


All right, I know this is more than 1 picture but I have to share this with you.
This is a mexican fruit called Jicama, you might be asking what's a Jicama? here is the answer.
Well let me just say that I absolutely love the taste of this fruit and since I'm mexican I have always eaten it with lemon, salt and chile. So yummy!!!!


Getting ready to go to bed!


On my way to the gym!!!


See you next month!!!

I "stole" this idea from Mel @ The Larson Lingo
Go check out her awesome blog and her adorable girls!!!

# Fail, what keeps you motivated? :: Mcfatty Monday week 5 #


This resume my week!!!

We were sick, David's birthday was on saturday, we went to the Chocolate festival so I ate like pig (pizza, wings, cake, ice cream, an entire HUGE turkey leg, taco, chocolate, pancakes), I didn't do ANY exercise and now I feel guilty and unmotivated!

I'm afraid to get on the scale or take my measurements because I know better.

I would love to know, what keeps you motivated?

I don't want to give up but sometimes is just too hard keep going.

Happy week, see you next monday!

# Sunday Funday #

We were busy busy this weekend, yesterday was David's birthday so we went to have dinner on friday night to one of his favorite places in town called Native New Yorker, we came home to put Gracie on bed & then we watched our favorite show Entourage.

Yesterday we had breakfast & after that he went to play golf as my surprise birthday present, he loved it! After his daughter, his wife (of course) & his dog he loves golf more than anything so I was happy that he got to spend his birthday doing something he loves.


Speaking about birthdays, it was Jr's birthday as well, he is now 4 years old or 28 doggy years.

Happy Birthday to my boys!!!

While David was golfing, Gracie & I went to the park with our friends Jenni, Jer & their adorable little girl Evie, we played on the sand, on the swings, running on the grass, we had a blast!!







Gracie was so exhausted after all that playing that she went to bed at 6pm and woke up this morning at 8am!!!

Today we went to the Chocolate Festival, I would say it was OK even though I would have loved to get more free samples.



Gracie & I share a gigantic Turkey leg, it was yummy!!!




After the festival we came home to take a nap and get ready to watch the Superbowl. I really wanted the Colts to win just because the Saints beat the Cardinals!

The Saints won the Superbowl but I would care less!!!





Blah! I'm just documenting. ha ha

Overall we had a great weekend!!! Looking forward to the next weekend when my sister in law is coming to visit. It's always fun when she is here.
