Being Home

There is something calming about everyone being home. Carlos is usually out of town so when he is home - I feel like my family is together. Right now, we are sitting in the living room, drinking wine and watching tv. It's the best Friday night I've had in a while. He cooked an amazing dinner, Sienna played and had a wonderful bath time. So now, it's just him and I - and that is what is perfect! I love him, my husband, the person that I am to spend the rest of my life with. I cherish the time of where the past has brought us, to enjoy the present and to be excited about the future. Even though this is a crazy economy, as long as I have him and Sienna - I'm good.

My cousin Jeff has been having some issues but is doing a lot better now! Work is great but I always rush home to be with my family.

Good night!

Is 100 Years Enough?

"100 Years" by Five for Fighting

I'm 15 for a moment

Caught in between 10 and 20

And I'm just dreaming

Counting the ways to where you are

I'm 22 for a moment

She feels better than ever

And we're on fire

Making our way back from Mars

15 there's still time for you

Time to buy and time to lose

15, there's never a wish better than this

When you only got 100 years to live

I'm 33 for a moment

Still the man, but you see I'm a they

A kid on the way

A family on my mind

I'm 45 for a moment

The sea is high

And I'm heading into a crisis

Chasing the years of my life

15 there's still time for you

Time to buy,

Time to lose yourself

Within a morning star

15 I'm all right with you

15, there's never a wish better than this

When you only got 100 years to live

Half time goes by

Suddenly you’re wise

Another blink of an eye

67 is gone

The sun is getting high

We're moving on...

I'm 99 for a moment

Dying for just another moment

And I'm just dreaming

Counting the ways to where you are

15 there's still time for you

22 I feel her too

33 you’re on your way

Every day's a new day...

15 there's still time for you

Time to buy and time to choose

Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this

When you only got 100 years to live

Happy Tears!

So, It's getting near that time. That time of when I will cry happy tears

because my little angel is turning 1 Year old.

I can't believe it even though it's coming so fast.

I will hold her tight as she gets ready to blow that one single candle out.

I'm can already feel myself trying to hold on to her more, trying to remember every moment, every opened mouth kiss and every smile I receive from her. When she hugs me, I hold her a little longer, when she waves bye at me when I go to work, I stand there a little longer just to look at her. As she grabs my legs for me to pick her up, I grab her, hug her, kiss her, love her with every ounce of being that I have - just to make her feel my love....

Where have I been?

Hello Everyone! Sorry that I have not been keeping you posted recently but we have just been SO BUSY! So, here the updated list of all that is going on in our family!

• March 26-April 1st, Chris, Stacy, Carlos and myself went on a 5 day, 4 night cruise to Cozumel, Mexico! It had been 10 years since Chris and I had taken a cruise together! We rented a Catamaran and went snorkeling! We had such a wonderful time! Enjoyed dinner together every night, shows on the ship and got a good amount of sun!
  
• Sienna is doing so much! She is walking 7-9 steps, wobbles a tad and then keeps on walking. I introduced her to a baby gate so she can stay out of the kitchen and she doesn't like that one bit!
  
• Carlos has been busy down in Brownsville. He so hard working!
• We had a wonderful date night last Wednesday. We went to dinner where they had a live piano playing, talked, laughed, kissed and giggled (well, maybe that was me giggling). It reminded me of when we were dating and just really enjoyed each others company.
  
• I just finished two books. "The Reader" by Bernhard Schlink and "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger. Both very good books but completely different.
  
• This past weekend, we went to Center. At one point I had two babies on my hips and silently thanked God that I didn't have twins. Sienna was only 1 month younger than the other little girl!
