Babies

Since there is nothing wrong with boys playing with dolls, I got the twins baby dolls for Xmas. Here is some pics of them playing with their babies. Lili likes to give them kisses, cuddle them up close to her check, then give them to someone else or throw them on the floor. The cruelness always finds a way out in that one!

Playing with dolls teaches kids how to be good parents. Boy or Girl!

Lili's sweetness, right before the cruelness.

My Kids are Wierd-Os

Since Felix wants to be just like Daddy, here he is walking around with Luis' lunch box.

This is what happens when Chone wears a headband all day.
Lili wondering if she is really realated to these people!

Deal of the Year!

The K-mart closest to us is closing, so we went to check out the deals and maybe find a dresser for Chone. Well we got this entertainment center instead. FOR $10!!!!

They must have put it in the computer wrong cause it was regularly $199. We stayed up late putting it together, but we did it. I got to put some pics on the top shelves.

We also got a 5 shelf bookshelf for the garage, but we'll put that together when Luis is done with the drywall in there.

Dia de Los Reyes

Me and Chone finally made our gingerbread Nativity scene.

It was lots of fun making it! I put to much color in the frosting for the peach, so that is why the baby Jesus looks like a jack-o-lantern.

One Year Difference

January 2007

January 2008
Wow, I really aged last year!

Welcome 2008!

We rang in the new year with the Lerma's and the Phi going pee pee on the potty at midnight. The kids were running around as the adults watched a movie and had some pizza, drinks, and chocolate cream pie. It was a nice new years eve.

Family Pictures

How do you think they came out?

Saturday Night

Tia Elaine came over to babysit so me and Luis could go out to dinner and a movie that she got us gift cards for as our Xmas present. She blew up the ball pit she got the twins for their Xmas present.

Lili likes it!
Felix wants Dexter to play.
Me and Luis had a good time out without the kids. Thanks Elaine! Great present!

Santa Felix

He likes to dip his face in the bath water, and when I put bubbles, we got Santa Felix.

Christmas 2007

We got together to see some Xmas lights on this street that goes all out. Then we headed off to Big Nana's house, as we always do. Here is our family picture...

Lili with Santa...
Felix with Santa...
They both cried, even though Santa was their own Dad!

Then we spent the night in SB and woke up to a great Xmas morning with lots of presents
Another great Christmas :)

Is it Xmas yet?

Merry Christmas to everyone! Hope everyone has a great Christmas with the ones they love, like I will. I'll try to remember to get pictures to post later.

Lili remind you of anyone?

maybe Deb from Napoleon?

Before...

After...

So what do you think? I like it!

Notice in the before picture, you can hardly even see the palm tree cause it was so windy that day! In the after picture the floors wet from the rain.

15 month Dr. appt

Before we got ready for their dr. appt, I made sure they cleaned the house...

They had to get 5 shots each cause their last Dr. had not given them all the ones they needed at their last appt. My poor babies! It was a hard visit, and I went alone. But they got new books from the clinic. They are both healthy and doing good. Lili is 24 lbs 6 oz and 31 1/4 inches tall. Felix is 22 lbs and 9 oz and 31 1/2 inches tall. I can't believe Lili has almost 2 pounds on him!

I know they are still to young, but I let them have lollipops since they had to be poked so much.

Visit from Tia Elaine

Elaine & Dexter came by to visit on Sunday...

Felix was amazed by Dexter's food and water...
Lili was more interested in the doggie...

Busy Saturday

I started the day early with an 8am ultrasound appt. Then I took Chone to a softball clinic. It was really good for her to get ready for her first season of softball. Then we all headed out to take family pictures, after going to Kohl's and Target to get white shirts for everyone. It went pretty well, and I hope we get a good one.

Then we went to a holiday event in our town that they had every year. Chone's school choir performed. Here she is singing her heart out.

Santa was there...

Lili
Felix
Chone
They had fake snow again. Of course there was big kids throwing snowballs, so all the other kids ended up in the toddler section.

We made it through the day... I was very tired by that evening.

Friday

``
Chone got a Terrific Kid Award and school and the assembly was this morning. She also brought home a perfect report card! I am so proud of her!


The twins were playing with some scarves Chone left out, so I put them on. They looked so cute!

Family Traditions

Ever year at Christmas time we would put up our nativity set (nacimiento). When my parents moved to SB I got the one that was here at the house. I saw this (picture below) online and wanted it for the kids. So I ordered it and some other Xmas presents. I probably won't take out the real one this year since the twins will probably break something. For the same reason we have the outdoor white metal/white light tree up in the livingroom. I hope next year we can have a real tree and the real nacimiento up. Oh, and we also have a gingerbread nativity kit we are going to do. It's like those gingerbread house kits, but a nacimiento.

Chone hid the baby Jesus, that's why it's not in the picture.

Here are Lili and Felix playing with it. See our sad tree in the background.
Inspired by Elaine's cakes, Chone wanted to make one of her own. Since I made her come to the grocery store with me, I told her I would buy her one thing. She picked cake mix. It's a three layer French Vanilla cake with Cream Cheese frosting! Yum!
(Elaine, we found some of your old cake stuff here at the house)

Cupcakes not at school

At Chone's school there is this new thing were you cannot bring in unhealthy snacks to share with the class. I guess some kid's Mom didn't get the memo and sent in cupcakes for his birthday. Since they can't eat them at school the teacher sent them home in ziploc baggies. Chone remembered it was in her backpack and showed me...

When I saw it from the side, I couldn't stop laughing! It was a prett flat cupcake!
Of course she still ate it :)

Slippers

We went to buy the babies some slippers at Walmart. These Felix tried on were a little to big!
