My Golden Boy....the 13th edition

It was a perfectly Johnny day...I asked him what he wanted to do..and all he wanted was to spend a quiet day together. All he wanted was to spend time with his brothers and sister. All all we did was just that.

Pancake Birthday Breakfast...a trip to the library where Johnny checked out a billion old metal CDs...Bella a big fat book...Mateo a large animal picture book...and cruz pooped his diaper...no joke...a huge go back to the car right away and change kind of poopy diaper.

Picked up a pizza and the kids came home to enjoy it on a blanket in their backyard...their favorite place.

This year you have:

Become a high school and did it with confidence ..respect...and joy

Performed numerous performances with the APA program and as I knew you would proved to your instructors that you are a gem

Became a big brother again...and this time to your mini me

Still have braces

Grew taller than your papa bear

We love you

Our Blueberry...11months

Ok...so here we are....marking Cruz's 11 months...11 blessed months! Happiness does not properly convey what this lil dimple but cheeked bambino has brought to us...he is everything we ever prayed for and so much more. I honestly do not let a day go by where I don't thank God for blessing me with all four of my babies...for their happiness...laughter...but most important their health. I have never questioned...not even when I was a 20 year old mama that I was without a doubt...born to be a mommy!

This month Cruz has:

Started pointing

Clapping and celebrating everything

Talking more..not only blabber..but actual words...dada..mama...cat...hi..bear.

Walking with a cruising toy

Fighting over toys

Eating everything...especially fine cheeses!
