He's Walking!

Andrew's walking!! He has been practicing for a while by holding on to our hands but just the other day he took his first steps. I was on the computer and out of the corner of my eye I see him walk over to me, about 5 feet. I was so excited which made him excited. He decided to go some more so he walked all the way over to the couch by himself. When Rob got home that night Andrew didn't crawl to say hello, he walked! Everyone told me that one day he will just take off and that's exactly what he did. I am actually very excited that he is walking now because now he doesn't have to depend on me to take him everywhere. He is more independent. Wow, what a big milestone! Congratulations big guy!!

Some of his first steps. Look how proud he is of himself!

"Watch out! Here I come!"
"Look at me go!"

Graduation 2008

Happy Graduation!! Yes, I finally finished my masters in Education Reading. It was a long 3 years but well worth it. I must thank some of the people that helped me along the way. My husband, for taking a lot of time to "babysit" on weekends and come home early from work. And for all the support emotionally and financially :-). To my son for letting me be away a couple nights a week and weekends the first year of your life. To Karen, for babysitting once a week for a year. To my dad, for instilling in me the importance of an education. I could not have done this without all of you! Woopie!! I'm done with school....FOREVER! And just a reminder, I am the most educated person in my family.

Yea Mommy!

Check out the CSUF shirt! Titan spirt!!

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day! For Mother's Day we went over to my parents and had a nice BBQ. The men did all the cleaning. What a nice treat! I have to say that I am so blessed not only to have had an amazing mom but also stepmom. How many people get two wonderful mother figures in their life? I'm also not only blessed with one amazing mother-in-law, but two. Again, how many people get that opportunity? To all the "mothers" in my life, thank you for being an inspiration to me and teaching me what it's like to be a wonderful mother! I love you!

Andrew and Mommy sharing special time.

Hugs for Mommy!

Zoomars Petting Zoo

We went to a petting zoo called Zoomars down in San Juan Capistrano. Andrew had a BLAST chasing all the bunnies and guinea pigs. Once he caught up with them, he was able to pet a few and even feed some. We will definitely be going back!

Petting the brave bunny.

We went with a few friends, the O'Connells (Kendra and Drew) and Ty Swanson. Look how brave Kendra is holding her own guinea pig.

Some bunnies would come right up asking for food.

We also took a little train ride around and around and around the track.

The other part of the petting zoo had goats. Andrew thought it was so fun being in the playhouse with a goat.
