Babysitter







Well guess how I spent my Saturday night last weekend?... Yup Babysitting, while all my cousins and Jose went to the Diamond back vs Dodgers baseball game. I was all by myself and a little scared in the beginning when they got to my house, but It actually went well!! I was babysitting a 4 year old, 1 1/2 yr. old, 1 yr. old and yes my wonderful handsome son GAVIN... who is 6 months now. I enjoyed it and it was nice to see Gavin interact with his cousins. My little cousin Isaih was so cute I called him my little "snack attack machine" he would eat all his snacks I gave him plus all the ones that would fall on the blanket and even the ones that little Myla Mae would leave behind. BOY! he was quick too, there would be snacks on the highchair and the next thing I know there all stuffed in his mouth ;> They are such good kids which made my job so much easier. (kudos to their parents!!;>) Not one of them cried and at the end of the night I gave the kids some milk, laid them down while I put Gavin to sleep and my the time I came down stair they were ALL ASLEEP. How easy was that!! Now don't get me wrong my the time everyone came back to pick up the kidos I was tried. Well I can't believe these words are going to come out of my mouth, but while I was babysitting and everything was going great I actually considered having 4 Kids because I did such a GOOD job... than I came back to reality and 4 kids would be a bit much.

Dinner at The Alfonsos


Two Sundays ago our great neighbors invited us over for dinner. Destiny made some yummy Philly cheese steak sandwiches and we had cheesecake for dessert. It always nice to hang out with them. I can't wait until Mikel, Mikah, and Gavin all play together. Now when they grown, they'll have no problem finding the girls cause Gavin has so many girl cousins ;> But I'm so sad because they will be moving soon and we'll have to now drive to their house instead of walk;> Well next time it'll be our turn to have you guys over for dinner.

Everywhere but Home!



















Well be have had such a buzy last couple of weeks. We First went to one of my good cousins wedding in San Pedro, CA. We had soo much fun and danced all night long... well I needed to take some breaks, but Jose, well he had his dancing shoes on and danced ALL night long ;> Gavin stayed at Grandma's house and well he partied like a ROCK STAR. He was not in bed until 9:30pm, and I'm sure grandma was giving him a lot more milk than what mommy would given him.( you can tell by his SIZE he LOVES his milk!!) I guess those are the perks when you stay at Grandma's house. It was the first night that I wasn't going to put Gavin to sleep, I was alittle emontional but I knew he was in good hands. Our trip didn't end there we were home for about a day than flew out to El Paso, TX to see the In-Laws !!! Gavin was able to see his cousin again :> We had such a good time. We all went out to dinner with the whole family one night, got Krispy Kreme donuts, had a cook out, and R E L A X !!! Now that I'm thinking of it we pretty much just ate the whole time... yummy!!! Gavin did so good on the plane, he's just my little Jet- Setter. Our trips don't end here there are so many parties and baby showers coming up so we'll be having a pretty buzy next couple of weeks.
