Noah's First Tooth!

Sunday September 12 Noah tuened five months. He has been a little fussy these past few days, and as he was gnawing my hand I felt something sharp........could it be???? I looked in his mouth and sure enough, Noah has his first bottom tooth. Oh, my baby is growing so fast.

My Three Blessings!

I feel so blessed to have three beautiful healthy children. I love being their mom and watching them grow. Noah is almost five months and he is such a joy to our family. He fits in just right. I just wish my Dad could have met sweet Noah. What a wonderful, calm baby he is. He is always happy.

I can't believe my little Ethan is in First Grade! Where does the time go??? I love having a six year old, he is so much fun. I am excited for him and looking forward in watching him on this journey.

Kara my sweet little two year old wants to be in school with her big brother. She is ready and also very excited. Too bad she has to wait one more year.

More Summer Fun

My Mom and I had a great time taking the kids to Disneyland this week. We all got passes and it was Noah's first time there. He did really well and seemed to enjoy the rides. Ethan is now tall enough for the roller coasters and wants to ride them all. This will be a fun year for us at Disneyland.




This week has been filled with fun things, we took the kids to the beach to watch a movie. Ethan and Kara just loved being outside on the sand to watch a great family movie.

Wedding Time!

Mom and Bonnie
Michael and Laura

Just got home from a beautiful wedding at Shutters on the Beach. Andy and I had a great time. It was nice to have some grown-up fun, while the kids were with a babysitter.

A Birthday Surprise

Today my husband Andy Florez is 35! I decided with the help of my friends to give him a great surprise party. It was held at my mom's house and he really was surprised. His two sisters Ginny and Jacqui also came for the weekend. We had a great Fiesta with Taco Man at the grill making tacos to order.........Yummy!!!!!

Celebration of Life

Today would have been my Dad's 79th birthday. In the Jewish religion after you bury a person you don't lay down the head stone for at least 30 days, then you have a get together to unveil the stone. My mom and I chose to have the unavailing done today because we thought it would be a great way to remember him and celebrate his life. Grass can be placed as a remembrance that life is fleeting, and stones were taken to the grave site and placed around the headstone to symbolize that we were there and remember his life. It was a beautiful tradition that I learned today and want to pass it on to my children. After the ceremony we all went to eat, "walking to nourishment" to symbolize that we walk forward in our life as we walk along side with our grief.
