Fruit is good!!

Fruit is sticky, ma!


Dear Readers:

  Ana has made a reversal on some of her fave snacks and now likes a lot of the fruit that she initially rejected. I am really happy that she loves avocados, apples, grapes, strawberries, bananas, melon, blueberries and mango.


 I want her to try papayas and kiwi soon, but I am not sure she is ready for those more unusual fruit tastes and flavors.

More strawberries?

Pick up a Copy of the January Woman's World Mag, I am IN IT!! :))

Hello friends and followers:

  Just wanted to drop a quick note and let you know that I am in the weekly Woman's World for January 16th on page 20.  (a cute photo too) I tested a new diet for them, and it worked so well...I am going to try it again until I reach my 20th high school reunion goal.  That is right, it is my 20th high school reunion this year, and I want to look my best. Who doesn't ?? I have been thinking about contacting mags and shows for a makeover in time for it next October, as it is a big one..and I have this stubborn post baby weight that just will not GO AWAY!!  What do you think?? I will have to scan it in for those of you whose supermarkets do not carry it...it is fun to flip through when you are in line too!!!

Have a great weekend...I have more pics to add tonight and tomorrow too...stay well,

A photo a day! NY Resolution #1

Dear Readers:

 So my first NY Resolution is to attempt to post one photo a day of Ana to show her progress in growth and learning.  Although I am already 2 days behind..yikes, I promise to stay on top of this resolution as much as I can. Originally, I was going to take a photo in the same place every day for a year, but I think that may get boring..so I will just post a sweet, funny or silly photo everyday.

Our holiday in Photos

Hello readers!!
    We had a wonderful holiday season with Anastasia, she really had fun traveling and seeing all of the family, trying new foods, and of course, opening and playing with her new presents. As she grows more and more, she amazes me through her creative play, wonderful vocabulary and cute mannerisms. She really is becoming a mini me, and we are having so much fun teaching her everyday.  I have some funny and fun videos to share, but first, photos!!!

  I have many more, this is just a sneak peek. And, I am so excited for my photo of the day posting. My New Year's resolution to post one photo a day and watch Ana grow and thrive :) I really need to get my hand's on photo shop and start having fun with editing too.

Until then, stay well and have a great week,

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Hello dear readers:
  Just a quick note to say Happy Holidays and Happy New Year from our house to yours.  I am currently writing my resolutions and of course one of my top ones is to blog more. I am going to join in on the 366 project, is it 366 or 365? Well, anywho, my plan is to take and post one photo or video a day for a year. Mostly revolving around Ana of course, lol. 

In anticipation of this, I have opened a Youtube page for her videos. I have taken so many over the past year and a half and will slowly go through, edit and add to her page the cutest and the funniest of the bunch.

In the meantime, Happy New Year....may 2012 bring you happiness, good health and wealth.
