Playdate!!!

My good friend Sandra and her little boy Rhodes came over today for a playdate and lunch!  Sandra worked with me last year in Irving and she stays home with her little one now so we always enjoy getting together to catch up! Here are some pictures of the kids playing together.  Isabelle has a major crush on Rhodes, she wouldn't stop grabbing him and trying to eat him!  He is too too cute!!

See... she wants him SOO bad!!!

 What a handsome little guy!!!

My chunky monkey!!!

Tis the Season!

We are so ecstatic that this is our First Christmas together with Isabelle!  The LOVE of our lives.  To me, this season has been more meaningful than any other that I have experienced in the last 26 years.  I feel that this year I have a more profound sense of Christmas, thanks to becoming a mom myself.  I hear the Christmas Carols and Holiday music on the radio and O Come All Ye Faithful brings goosebumps to my arms.  The newest Christmas song that I am LOVING is Joseph's Lullaby by Mercy Me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=he9BdHNrXTs Check it out here!  I feel that sense of Mary's heart when she looked at her perfect angel sent to her from the Father.  It brings tears to my eyes as I listen to it now.  Looking into Isabelle's eyes just makes my heart skip a beat.  I can't imagine giving birth to the Savior of the World!  I feel like a million bucks knowing that I have Isabelle, I would feel so unequipped to carry the Son of God.  All this to say, material Christmas presents have been put on a MAJOR backburner this year and we are celebrating in the birth of our Savior as we look at our little angel.

With a Christmas bow...

or with a Santa hat....???

Rollin with the homies~~~

WE'RE ROLLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thankful for so many things!

Wow! I am really behind on these posts.  I have a couple to post today so hopefully I will somewhat catch up.  This holiday season is so special to us having baby Isabelle.  This year we spent it with Adan's family.  His mom, brother, sister, His aunts and uncles, grandparents, and cousins.  I think there was about 20 or so of us together.  It was a great day of relaxation and giving thanks for so many things that God has given us.  Here are a few pics of our Thanksgiving.

Little bit of this and that... oh and HOW BIG ISABELLE IS!!!!!

The past few months have FLOWN by.  I am just soaking up every MOMENT and little thing that Isabelle does.  I know that soon enough she is going to be doing something new and I never want to forget all the "little things"  Like the fact that she still sleeps with us, that she needs me to fall asleep at night.  That she loves bath time, her crazy hair, and that chuckle she gets when I walk in the door from work.  I never knew how good life could be before she was born!  Man how she has ROCKED our world for the better :-)

And those smiles are what makes every extra pound on my body ALL worth it! ha!

More Izz...

a few more pictures to brighten your day of my beautiful, precious, amazing, miracle, bundle of joy, perfect, cuddly, sweet, bubbly baby girl! Oh how we love her more and more everyday! 

moms at work...

So apparently when I go to  work fashion goes out the door... out of ALL the clothes in her 2 yes 2 closets this is what daddy puts her in... his response to me..."well they are all pastels"  So sweet of him I just love him to death but I had to share because it cracks me up!!!

uh Dad~ I dont think mom would approve!!! ha that face just melts my heart!!!

2 months old... now thats somethin' to smile about!!!

We are all smiles and coo's around the Flores house! Isabelle is such a happy baby!!! She smiles and talks to us all day long and we couldn't be happier!!!  She loves playing on her activity mat and tells mama and dada to sing with her as it plays the music! AHHHHHHHHHH I could just eat her up!

Yesterday was her 2 month check up here are her stats!
   Weight: 10 lbs 12oz
   Height 21 3/4 in

We are on the charts at 50% for weight and 30% for height! We are so proud of our big eater!!!

TuTu Cute!!!

We decided to go and take some pictures of baby girl since there was FINALLY a little bit of sunshine!!  She wasn't too keen on us trying to prop her up but they still turned out pretty cute... I can't believe she is almost 2 months old!!!

7 weeks old... last Tuesday!!!

rockin to sleep :-)

snoozin in the car!!!

Holy Moly... Reality is coming!

Well, my stay at home mother duties are soon coming to an end.. :-( I have been praying, praying, and praying some more as to what to do about work, but everything that looks like a possible avenue to stay home has quickly come to a dead end. I guess the Lord has something in store for me that I can't see yet, and it is hard, daily it gets me down, but I just have to be greatful that we are in a position to survive financially. Neither Adan nor I took our jobs based upon the income they would provide and now we are just seeing the future unfold. We both have a passion for helping people, children especially, and the Lord put that in our hearts for a reason. Now it is our challenge to help the reach the Lord and no matter how hard I fight to find a job that can allow me to stay home for this season of mine and Isabelle's life it just isn't going to happen. So Tuesday is the day that will be full of tears and heartbreak. I know that Isabelle will be in a good place and well taken care of but my heart yearns to stay home with her. Our family will continue to pray for the Lord's will and if possible an opportunity to stay here with her, but if that doesn't happen I pray for the peace to know that everything is happening for a good reason. How could you not want to stay with this amazingly precious little baby?!?

3 Weeks down! and a lifetime of love to go!

Here are her 3 week pics!!! She is growing and changing so much everyday! She found her "voice" this week and is mesmirized by her abilities :-) So much fun... I can't even put into words how much we love her!!!


Look at that monkey hair!!! It is so out of control... we can't do anything with it except embrace it!!!

The "Mom" cut!

I have been having a heck of a time getting ready in the mornings #1 because I don't want to get out of bed #2 because I just want to hold Isabelle ALL THE TIME or atleast look at her constantly and #3 my hair takes FOREVER to get done. With all that said.. I chopped it off... 10 INCHES!! WOW.. I was really nervous about it making my already round face even rounder, but I don't even worry about it anymore because it is so much easier to get ready! Now I get to spend more time with little miss in the morning instead of being a slave to the CHI!!!
