Spring is in the Air!!!



The boys!!!












Mami and Jovy at an egg hunt.






Lots of eggs!!!












Jovy with the bunny.








Jovany has been going through a Dr. Seuss craze. His favorite is The Cat in the Hat. I think we have read it to him about a million times. He has the book memorized and will recite pages randomly. The kid loves books which makes Mami so happy!




Our little guy is cooing so much and recently started to scoot.

And Now We Are Four!


This was our first family photo and it was much harder than I thought to coordinate everyone looking the same direction and happy (the hood was a must). This was the best we could do!
Life with 2 kids is definitely busier. Jimmy and I don't stop all day long but it is so worth every smile, hug and kiss. The boys are amazing and growing so fast!



Luis Carlos is doing amazing. His life consists of eating, sleeping and pooping. He enjoys the outdoors already and taking a bath with his brother. We have a feeling he got the athletic gene from his Tio Chris because he is very strong and can already support his body with his legs. He loves to cuddle and seems to need us much more than Jovany did.


Here's the chunky monkey at 2months weighing in at 13 lbs. As you can see no one goes hungry in our household!



Jovany has become a wonderful and protective big brother. He loves his brother and is so ready for Luis Carlos to play with him or at least have more of a reaction. It's so great to see them interact.









Sweet boys!!!!

INTRODUCING.....

LUIS CARLOS TOVAR.....named after his two amazing Grandfathers

Born December 17, 2008 ate 8:06 am. He weighed 6lbs 15oz.....19 inches long

Born C-section somewhere between 36 and 38 weeks of pregnancy.


Jovany caring for Mami but so tempted to touch all the buttons




My first breaths in the BIG world were very difficult. I was in NICU for observation due to fluid in my lungs....

I was one of the bigger babies in the NICU, but had to be watched closely....the nurses took such good care of me and I became healthier everyday



NO MORE FEEDING TUBE!!!! Drinking milk on my own.....do you see my little IV???? OUCH!!!



So excited to finally go home!!!! All my family is waiting for me



It was the hardest thing ever to leave our son at the hospital and not take him home with us. Luckily, it was for one day only....

Christmas Eve 2008



Our sweet boy!!! God is good!!!

Do you see the resemblance to my brother and Papi??? Do you see the eyebrow/thinking look I have..... I still look more like Mami though....

Sometimes it's hard being a big brother....I love my baby brother so much but he makes Mami very busy! I am taking full advantage of Mami's boo boo and doing things I normally don't do to get some attention. I do love to help Mami change diapers and wash LC.....I am in charge of the pacifier staying inside his mouth.

Pumpkin Patch and Halloween!!!

Because of Jovany's obsession right now with trains we thought it might be fitting for him to be a Choo Choo boy!!!!
This kinda spooked me out!!!! Do you see me running.... Oh no!!! I left my bag of candies

Trick or Treat!!!!


Trick or treating in Tata's neighborhood


Taaa Daaaaa!!!! pumpkin's complete....


Doing crafts at the library....they even had a haunted house that we went through....we couldn't believe how fearless Jovany was. He laughed every time someone jumped out to scare us, but he wouldn't let go of Papi's hand the whole way through.



I am a train engineer or Choo Choo boy for short!!!


This thing is soooo heavy!!!!



This is so much fun....



Jovany and Gabriella in deep thought with the pumpkins

What is Jovany's favorite fruit?
