Welcome Mima!

Akmel's Grandma is in town visiting from California. It is so wonderful to be able to visit with her! Mima's sister is in town too from Miami. Sister's are the best! How great is it that they can visit with each other and relax and Mami's and Papi's place. Welcome to Orlando ladies. We are happy to have you.

Isabella's First Hair Cut

Bella was well behaved during her hair cut. Katina gave her a comb to hold and that kept her occupied the whole time. Another milestone for our baby.

Bella's Hair Days

Akmel and I took Isabella for her first haircut on July 20th. She was so great and Katina did a wonderful job trimming it up so her hair is out of her face. These pictures give you an idea of just how long it was getting.

Happy Birthday Austin

One of my closest and dearest friends had a birthday celebration for her son. Austin turned one on July 7th. He is a growing so big. He is such a blessing to so many. His mom and dad waited a long time for him but I am sure they will tell you he was worth the wait! Congratulations on your baby boy!

The Celebration

Our neighbors, Kelly and Walt invited us over to celebrate the holiday together. Sara and Kayleigh love to spend time with Bella. Olivia is getting bigger every day. I love that Isabella has a neighborhood friend. Isabella was very tired after a very fun day. She was sleeping by 8pm and missed all the fireworks. Akmel and I watched from our windows.

Isabella's First Fourth of July

We are a very patriotic family. Isabella and Akmel both wore red white and blue.

Stepping into July

Isabella took her first steps on Saturday, July 1st, outside at the neighbor's house. Mr. Walt gave Isabella some bottled water and she could not have enough. She was drinking like a big girl and when I moved the bottle away from her she took a little step towards me, paused and took three more little steps before she gracefully sat down.

Her daddy was at work and missed it but she did it again just for him on Sunday morning.

Congratulations Isabella on another milestone for you! We are proud of you every day and thank God for His blessings.
