3 Months Old...

Abby is three months old today! She weighs in at a healthy 13.6 pounds. It's unbelievable how quickly the time has passed us by. Here she is in her monthly pose. Daddy caught her laughing as he was taking the picture.

This weekend we are looking forward to the A&M vs. Arkansas game and the Detroit Lions game. We'll see how Abs does at these events!

Much Love,

Daddy's Birthday!

Today was Daddy's special day! Mommy & daddy had already celebrated his birthday on Friday night at his favorite restaurant, Reata in Fort Worth. It was a really great night for us to spend some alone time together as well as celebrating his big day.

Tonight, Uncle Saul wanted to take us to dinner to celebrate Moi's big day. Of course, seeing Abs was another benefit!

We all went to On The Border for dinner and had great food. Abby was so good. She kept trying to join the conversation and even did a little dancing in her car seat to the music playing in the restaurant. After dinner we went home to enjoy some strawberry cheesecake, which is one of Moi's favorite desserts.

Here's Moises & Saul making their favorite school's hand gestures.

Thanks for dinner, Saul!

Much love,

Pop & Mumzie Come to Town...

This weekend we were so excited to have Pop & Mumzie come visit us! They drove all the way from Florida and arrived on Saturday afternoon. Abby was so excited to meet both them! Mommy & Daddy were excited to see them too. We haven't seen them since our wedding!

Here are Pop & Mumzie admiring sweet Abby, she was wearing the outfit they gave to her. She was a little angel all weekend and got to spend lots of good quality time with them.

We had such a good weekend with both of them. Lots of fun and lots of laughs. Can't wait to see them again.

Here's one of Abby's few crying bouts! She was a little hungry and not afraid to say so!

Then of course she was happy...


Much love,

Abby the model...

Abby the crabby...

Abby seems to be growing so fast that she barely gets to wear any of the adorable clothes she got as gifts before she was born. She's already wearing 6 month clothes and she's not even 3 months yet. Mommy thought this outfit from Pop & Mumzie was too cute! So did her teacher, Miss Sarah.

This weekend we went up to Allen to see grandma, grandpa, Samuel and Saul. Uncle Saul was nice enough to take some cute pictures of little Abby. She did so good and was such the model.

Abby also really enjoyed staying outside. So Daddy got the fountain all set up for her to sit in her bumbo and watch. Mommy was a little nervous having her so close to the water so she stayed by her the whole time! Geez, mommy, you so need to relax.

We think Abby has finally started noticing the fact that she has two dogs. When she's laying on the floor playing with her activity gym, she often stops and stares at either Frodo or Ginger. Here Ginger is giving Abs a sweet nuzzle. Don't worry we stopped Ginger before she gave Abby a big wet kiss.

We can't wait to get the pictures from Uncle Saul because they were so cute! It was so sweet of him to take them of her. As soon as we get them we'll be sure to post them as well. Tonight we were excited to watch the Cowboys win their first game of the season. Abby sure did make a good cheerleader. Next weekend we are excited for Pop & Mumzie to come visit and meet the Abs!

Much love,

Family Stroll...

So, since the weather has been relatively cooler, and by cooler we mean high 90's instead of 110 in the evenings, we've been taking nightly strolls as a family. This let's Abs get out and about and gives us a chance to get Ginger out for walks. Frodo is not keen on the walks, too much exercise for the little guy!

We've also been working to teach Abs English and Spanish words. Mommy has a hard time with the pronunciation of some words, but it'll come sooner or later. Abs will definitely have an advantage learning to be bilingual from the start.

Abs and daddy were also super excited for the return of Sunday night football last night. Here she is wearing daddy's hat while rooting for the Cowboys. Too bad they didn't perform as well as we all wanted. Oh well, there's always next week...

Much love,

Moises & Jennifer

Abby's first giggle!

Last week we thought that we heard Abby's first giggle while we were calling the Hogs with her. This week we are sure that she's really a giggling little girl. She seems to giggle a lot in the mornings. It's so funny how something so perceptively small as a giggle can bring so much joy and pride to us as parents.

We have also had little Abs doing a lot more "tummy time", which she's finally enjoying as she's gotten more control of her neck. Abby also started grabbing for toys today, so she's finally enjoying the activity gym we got for her. Nothing is still as good as mommy and daddy singing to her, though!


Here's little bit smiling and laughing away in the backseat with mommy. Sometimes she seems to really NOT enjoy riding in the back of the car, so one of us usually rides in the back to keep her entertained.

Here she is really giggling away at mommy. Please note this is shortly before another parental milestone of the projectile vomit. Seriously, it was like the scene of out the Exorcist and got all over mommy and baby.

She's only 10 weeks old and is already doing "Horns Down"...



Much love,

Moises & Jennifer
