I can do it myself, look!

Our big girl is now able to drink her 8 oz. bottle of milk, all by herself. She has been trying for about a month now, holding it on her own only when it was half full. Now she has some muscles in her arms and can hold it herself like a pro.

Merry Christmas!!

We spent Christmas morning at home opening gifts with Alexa. She only opened a few of her presents then went down for her nap. Later that morning we went to Tio Jaime and Tia Liz's house to open gifts with her cousins. One gift in particular Alexa loved, she was able to open it herself, she pulled the bow off the box and opened her gift, it was really cute. All in all Christmas came and went very fast. Looking forward to next year when Alexa will be old enough to participate. She liked to stare at the tree but was not too interested in it, which is good, since we had a lot of ornaments she could could have gotten into.

Ready to open one of her gifts!

I like this bow!
If I pull this it might open!

I'm doing it, look mom!

I did it, I did it!!

Christmas Eve!

We spent Christmas Eve at my cousins house, with all my aunts, uncles and cousins from my moms side of the family! We had a great time, all the kids opened all the gifts under the tree. Alexa had a great time opening her presents all by herself. I did not end up getting a picture of her in her Christmas dress. We opened presents a bit late, she was already in her jammies ready to go home and open gifts the next morning! My parents spent Christmas and New Years in Mexico visiting my dads family. We will be doing Christmas with them once they return, then I can get a picture of Alexa in her Christmas dress, it's adorable!

She loves bows!

She was pulling on the paper all by herself!

Such a good helper mommy was!

I want to open another one!


Yay, more toys!!

Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas!!

love, Christian, Erika and Alexa!!!

I am 5 months old!!!

We took Alexa to get her 5 month pictures taken in her Christmas dress! We were only able to get one picture with her shoes on, she kept taking them off. She is such a happy girl, always smiling!
