David the Cook

David is now almost three and has recently become a big brother. Not only is he growing physically, he is also trying to help more around the house. Let's just say it's been quite an experience.

David has helped with the laundry, with the vacuuming and with the baby. But most recently he attempted to help make breakfast. Of course, his Aunti Chachau

braved the kitchen with him.

Although the scrambled eggs started off

quite...shall I say, shelly,

they were very tasty.

He's surely going to need cooking lessons.

So Much Love!

Although the first few moments of my life were a bit stressful, I was greeted with so much love that I quickly forgot about the traumatic ordeal I had endured.

Papi

and Mami

were right there to hold me tight

and make me feel safe.

And after I got cleaned up

I met my big brother, David,

Tita. and

...............my Aunti Chachau

The Princess Arrives

After 40 weeks minus one day, our precious little princess made her grand entrance into this world. And it was quite an entrance. As ready as Mami and Papi were Michaella seemed to be in no rush. However, when she decided to make her way, she wasted no time. Only 4 hours after the first contraction and a handful of pushes later, Michaella Danielle was born at 7:00am on Thursday, February 22. She weighed in at 8 pounds and was 20 inches long. It goes without saying that she is the most beautiful baby girl we have ever seen. Michaella is now 12 days old and has a sweet and peaceful spirit. She spends her days sleeping and her nights keeping us up...well mostly she keeps her Mami up. David, now a big brother, is adjusting to the new addition. He and Michaella hit it off right away; they took their first nap together in the hospital. David is quite the helper! He holds her and sings to her when she cries. He even helps Mami burp her after feedings and puts the bobo back in her mouth.
