"Wonder Woman" goes Trick or Treating!

Happy Halloween! Angelina went Trick or Treating with her cousin Patrick. She had a great time!

Sea World Halloween Spooktacular!!

We had a great time at Sea World's Halloween event. We met up with our friends Ashley, Joe and Anthony. Angelina wore her Wonder Woman costume which was a hit! Here are some of the cute pics we got.

ANGELINA LOVES PUMPKINS!

ANGELINA LOVES PUMPKINS SO MUCH! SO IMAGINE HER EXCITEMENT GOING TO A PUMPKIN PATCH. WE ARE GOING TO ANOTHER ONE NEXT WEEK BUT IN THE MEAN TIME HERE ARE SOME PICTURES....

I WILL ALSO BE POSTING PICTURES OF CHRIS AND I ON OUR CRUISE LAST WEEKEND. ANGELINA STAYED WITH UNCLE RICHIE AND AUNT ROSE PART OF THE WEEKEND AND WITH GRANDMA WENDY AND AUNT CELESTIAL PART OF THE WEEKEND..SHE HAD A BLAST!

Gotta have friends!

I just had to add some cute pics of Angelina and some of her friends. I will be adding more pics later in the week after we go to Disney with Angelina's friend Audrey!

Angelina and Anthony just adore each other, I met Anthony's mom Ashley when I worked at Outback last Christmas. We have become really good friends. These pictures were taken at Sea World.





Angelina and Gianna are so cute together!
Gianna's mom Shayna is a very dear friend of mine from college days, we lost touch for several years but got back in touch a year ago. When we did get back in contact we found that we both had baby girls! Angelina is exactly 3 months to the day older than Gianna. They are now taking Dance class together! I can't wait to watch them grow together!

Angelina Graduates from Swim Lessons!

We are so excited that Angelina has finished her second year of Swim Lessons! She did great and we feel very confident with her in the pool.

Here are some pics of her last 2 lessons! She has become quite the little fish!

Breakfast with Elmo and fun summer days!

.....So, summertime is winding down(of course the 90 degree days remain;)
Anyway, we are excited for the fall and coming holiday months!

Angelina has been so funny lately, she repeats everything she hears, and I MEAN EVERYTHING:), she loves to sing and play dress up and she has 2 favorite stories to read at bedtime, the other day she was in her room and over the monitor I heard her reading the stories...(sorry to be one of those bragging mom's that usually annoy me but I am so proud of her!) She also says "bless you" if you sneeze and she reminds us to say prayers at dinner(she repeats what we say!)..

Swim lessons are almost finished and she actually enjoys it this year unlike last year- which was 5 weeks of crying every time we got there. Now she asks to go to swim, although maybe that's because she can get a lollipop?

We went to Sea World with our friends Ashley and Anthony a few weeks ago and had Breakfast with Elmo and friends..Angelina enjoyed the dancing and singing!

We have lots of fun planned for the next few months...lots of friends birthday parties, Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party at Magic Kingdom, Halloween(we are still thinking about costumes?), Dallas for Thanksgiving...

We hope you all are doing great! Keep in touch...

Angelina having Fun!



Hello all,
Sorry I haven't updated in a while!
We have had a good summer but definitely excited for the Fall!

Angelina is doing great! She has become little miss independent these days, she now has to dress herself and put on her own shoes(not always on the right foot but thats ok!)
We got Sea World and Aquatica(a new water park) passes, which she absolutely loves!

She just started her Swimming refresher course, she is doing great so far!

She has become quite the dancer and singer- she loves to sing Happy Birthday, but she sings it" happy Birthday Too, Three(she thinks the too is the number 2). She loves saying her own name and when she wants something she will say "Lina, juice or petey lina(pretty lina)",etc...

Our Disney passes have resumed from summer break and we went to Magic Kingdom last Saturday with my brother and sister in law. We took Angelina on the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Caribbean, that child has no fear! :)We had a great time!

Thank you for your birthday wishes, unfortunately I had a horrible cold and sore throat on my actual day but, we did go out to dinner with some friends the weekend before...And Chris made me a yummy german chocolate cake!!!

I am posting some random pictures! More soon...

Angelina's 2nd Birthday!

Well, Angelina turned 2 on June 22nd! She had a great party with friends and family! The swimming part got rained out, but the kids had a blast playing with her toys!
I have tons of pics, and my mom has a bunch more but I am going to post a few for now!

Angelina is doing great, she is growing so fast! She now knows her colors, counts to 15(the number of stairs in our house:), and tells me when she has gone potty in her diaper-thats a new thing. Her new favorite things to do are...playing dress up, her friends ane and uke (anthony and luke-we do play dates together), and the beach-she asks to go everyday!

We are doing good, enjoying the summer! Hope all is well!

Vacation and Summer Fun!

We had a great trip to New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
Angelina got to meet her new 2nd cousin Alexander and visit with lots of family!
We are enjoying summer, Angelina loves going in the pool! She LOVES to play dress up and
draw pictures for Daddy.

She turns 2 on June 22nd! We are excited for her Nemo and friends swimming party!

More soon!

Mother's Day Weekend!

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! I hope you all had a wonderful day!
We had a great weekend! Chris took me out Friday for my Mother's Day! Saturday night we spent with his mom and family, and Sunday night with my mom and family!

Here are some cute pics! We stopped by Toys R Us- to get some present ideas for Angelina's 2nd birthday, as you can see from the pics, she already picked it out:)

The latest in our lives!

Hi! Just thought I should write and give an update on our little family!

Angelina Maria is now 22 months, the "terrific" twos are quickly approaching... she is a bundle of energy and has a great sense of humor!! Talks non-stop, she loves to count, and loves animals, shoes, strawberries, her daddy, healthy chocolate, her play dates, Disney World, and being outside...

We have started to plan her 2nd birthday party and I am feverishly trying to finish her "1st 2 years scrapbook"! Its been alot of fun going through all my pictures and putting it together.

She will start her refresher swim lessons in June and I am going to put her in a fun Pre-Dance class in the winter!

Chris and I are doing good, Chris just started a new job with a new company and really likes it so far, he is training to do an amateur body-building show in the fall.

I am busy being a mom and building our Healthy Chocolate business which is doing great! I will be taking another dance class in the summer which I am excited about.

We will be heading to New York in 2 weeks for a mini-vacation!

Hope all is well with you! Drop us a line soon, I would love to hear what's going on with you! Love, Melissa
