She's growing so quickly

It's been 5 weeks since she was born .... how time flies! She's a good little girl - eats and sleeps most of the day. When she's awake, she observing everything around her.

Another Year Older

I can't believe another year has passed and I'm a year older. It was a low-key birthday celebration. I enjoyed the day with my kids - Joe joined us in the evening.
If you know me, you know I do not bake! I decided to be daring this year.....YES, Cami and I made cup cakes.
He used his little Thomas the Train spoon to fill the tins. Boy, what a mess he made!
Cami added the sprinkles one at a time. Needless to say, it took us awhile to decorate all the cup cakes!
Aubrey just watched as Cami and I made a mess.
We waited until Joe arrived home from work to sing and blow out the candle. It was a wonderful day!

Our new addition....

Aubrey Mai Santos
September 19th, 2008 @ 10:11 am
7 lbs 4 oz 20.5 in


Having a newborn in the house has been an adjustment for all of us. Cameron was a bit jealous at first, but has warmed up to his new sister quickly. Each time she cries, he says "uh-oh", then runs to find her binky to put in her mouth.

Aubrey is absolutely perfect! We're blessed to have her in our lives!

Brady turns ONE!

I can't believe the baby of the family has turned ONE! My nephew Brady is a sweetie pie who LOVES to eat. He's enjoying his birthday cake!
I found two friends on the mat just staring at each other - how cute is that?!?
The kids are enjoying the music and bubbles at Brady's birthday party!

Chuc Mung Nam Moi

Translation: Happy New Year!
Many people know the Lunar New Year as Chinese New Year. But it's not only the Chinese who celebrate....Vietnamese people do too! Cami is dressed to celebrate the occasion (the outfit also had a matching hat with a fake hair braid attached....the hat was too small for his big head). I had a HARD time getting him to put on his outfit and getting him to sit still for pictures. This was the best I could do that day! C'est la vie....there's always next year!

My little man turns TWO!

I still remember the evening I went into labor with Cameron like it was yesterday - how time flies! My little boy is now two. It's bitter sweet for me....I'm ecstatic he's growing up, but sad at the same time. Sometimes I just want to cradle him in my arms like he was an infant again! But then again, I love how he learns new things everyday. AHHHhhhh, parenthood for ya!

We celebrated Cami's actual birthday with my family. He loved his Thomas cake (thanks Di Quyen!). Here's the birthday boy...
Our family...and yes, Cami still puts everything except food into his mouth.
Cami and his daddy. I think Cami looks more and more like Joe everyday!
