Nicholas' 1st Christmas

After a fun and loud Christmas Eve with delicious food and silly games with friends we had our quiet and sweet Christmas morning!!! Nicholas had so much fun opening his gifts!

Going for the big one!

Gift from tia Hellen and tio Geann

Hubby surprised me with a camcorder! 

Not happy that Lakers lost

At night we were brave enough to leave our warm and cozy nest to see some Christmas light.

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

Happy B-day Jesus!

Happy Holidays!!!

A Cute Preview!

Nicholas and I had fun taking some pics for our Christmas Card! Here is a preview.

Somebody got a Mohawk!

Happy 6 months!

My baby is already 6 months old! Wonderful 6 months! Nicholas is just an adorable and sweet baby! He likes to smile a lot, loves eating bananas and rice crackers, is sitting up using one hand to support (some times without hands), jumps with joy when papai (dad) gets home, loves music, crabs everything he can and takes to his mouth, is very vocal, loves jogging with his mama (in his comfort BOB stroller), loves outdoors, gets very fussy when we don't get out of the house, is sleeping through the night, is still breastfed, loves being around people, doesn't like tummy time, wants to eat everything we eat, likes to be naked (I always have to take out his cute outfit), loves bath and bubble bath, gets fussy around 5pm, likes to put his blanket over his face to fall sleep, likes to have his socks halfway on his feet (just like his papai), melts our heart everyday, and bring joy to our lives that no words can explain. Nicholas Haruki is the best and cutest baby boy that we could ever have!!!! Thank you Lord!

Hiking with Nicholas

Hiking with Nicholas in Mammoth. It's in Portuguese but still worth to watch it even if you don't speak Portuguese.

Photo Shoot: Kenda Turner-writer

Kenda Turner is my mother-in-law and a wonderful writer! While she was in California, we took some time to snap some photos for her blog.

Maternity Shoot

Hellen and Gean are expecting a cute girl (How do I know she is cute? Just look at them and you'll agree their baby will for sure be cute!) We had our mini photo shoot for their baby shower invitation. Now I think is gonna be very hard to choose one pic for the card. They all turned out so good!
I'm so happy for you guys! I can't wait to see our lil Savanna! (Is it how you guys gonna spell it? If not, sorry: )

Looking Good!

We had a couples weekend at our church and it was very fun! We had great workshops and a formal dinner so the gals got to dressed up! It was my first time after my pregnancy wearing a formal dress... man, it was so hard to find some thing that'd fit my upper body and allow to breastfeed at the same time. That's the problem with most of my clothes lately. They don't fit at the "feeding area" or if they fit I can't wear it cause there is no access to my hungry baby! Plus, if baby decides to sleep, the feeding area increases in size even more, (since there is no hungry baby emptying it) meaning a normal outfit becomes tighter and "things" start to popping out by their own! Anyway, here are some pics of some couples looking good.
