Our cottage vacation for Summer of 2010

2010-12-09T14:38:00.001-05:00

I had never spent a week like this before. I t certainly took a lot of energy to keep up with the little ones for an entire week! But I thought it was all worth it at the end. I’d certainly do it again.
I was impressed by my friend’s patience with the little ones, it must come from being a teacher, I can certainly loose mine pretty quick sometimes.

It’s been a while….

2010-12-09T11:45:00.000-05:00

Wow it’s been over 3 years since my last post here. I promise myself to be more active in the blog. If anything to record their childhood.
Aubrie’s letter to Santa reads like this…
"please buy me everything on my list. But if you can't buy me everything on my list, please buy me something"

Gimme cake!!!

Gordita

2007-08-22T23:33:00.000-04:00

Esta es una de mis fotos favoritas de Aubrie. Se ve muy gordita, pues en estos tiempos comia bastante. Hoy ya no quiere comer y es muy activa, asi que se ha puesto peche.

I am back baby!!

I innocently walked in to the kitchen, Aubrie spotted the bigger cake and....

Tada! Her first dive!

Can't wait...

Hellooo!!!

2006-01-28T14:58:00.000-05:00

Let it snow....

2006-01-27T02:21:00.000-05:00

Where is the carrot and the hat?
Eventually, our snow man collapsed, but Isabella had lots of fun.

Exersaucer!!!

2006-01-27T02:08:00.000-05:00

This is such a helpful toy...
It entertains the baby and we get good
pictures.

New Year Celebration

2006-01-05T08:24:00.000-05:00

New Year's Eve Celebration!
How things have changed over the last couple of years,
things will never be the same, but we've been centainly
blessed with beautiful children.

Guess what this one will do?

2005-12-14T23:58:00.000-05:00

So then you wonder what the next kid will
do in her spare time. Will she do the same things?
Probably not....that would be to easy.
I am sure she'll come up with new stuff.

Where does she get this ideas from?

2005-12-14T23:55:00.000-05:00

When your kid starts doing all these weird things
you start to wonder, Was I like that?
Here you see the genes in action and their source...

What can we use this for?

2005-12-14T23:50:00.000-05:00

Things were very quiet at the Ventura household,
but soon mommy discovered what the little friends
were up to.....CREAM! and so the fun continued.

Hangin' out!

2005-12-14T23:42:00.000-05:00

Today started so innocent..........
two little friends having fun.......
under the supervision of mommy, then ....

Catching some rays

2005-09-14T10:51:00.000-04:00

Ahh! The life of a newborn.... eat, sleep, take some sunrays and poop!

She does look like me!!!

2005-09-10T11:32:00.000-04:00

Wow I used to look like this 2 years ago. How cool! Hope my little sister can play me soon.
Mami and Papi are getting old and seem really tired these last couple of days. Can't understand it, because now they will have two little "helpers' instead of just one.

Surprise!

2005-09-10T11:17:00.000-04:00

Wow, this kid kind of looks like me! Is this what Mami and Papi have been taking about for the last 9 months? It sure took the a while to pick a colour!!! Hey, she kind of looks like me....

Aunt Roo,

I heard that you are coming on Tuesday.... you better be here...or else!!!!
Ha ha, just kidding, just make sure you visit me this week, you may be too busy in school and not be able to show me this funny face in the Fall.

Love,

Isabella.

Mis Tias favoritas....

2005-08-28T16:58:00.000-04:00

Hola Tias!!

Muchas gracias por visitarnos este fin de semana. A ver cuando nos vemos otra vez. A veces parece como que si no pasamos mucho tiempo juntas, pero lo que cuenta es la calidad del tiempo que pasamos. La proxima vez que vengan, talvez ya tengamos a mi nueva hermanita,
nos se cuando pero me dicen que ya viene de camino.... ummm , me pregunto si va a querer usar mi juguetes? Mi papi dice que tia Liz siempre le perdia los carritos.....eso no me va a gustar!!!

Con mucho carino....

Isabella.

I love my froggie

2005-08-28T16:31:00.000-04:00

I love my frog so much i even sleep with him. When i eat my Mami puts him on the counter and he watches me when i eat. I try to feed him my supper but Papi says that he only eats grillo's.
My aunt roo gave me my froggie. Thanks Roo!

The gang

This has got to be one of my favourite pictures of the gang.

Shopping with Isabella

2005-08-12T22:00:00.000-04:00

Wow, today I think I escaped one or two tantrums from Isabella. I went to Tepperman's , looking for her bedroom furniture, and as soon as we walked into the store... she started crying about TV's (I think she wanted to sit there ans watch TV for a bit), the whole store was so quiet until she started crying, so it made her sound real loud!
I managed to calm her down by telling her that we were going home to watch TV and by giving her some raisings and water (this worked for about 2 minutes), while I searched for her furniture. This was one of those few times when I did need a sales person to help out ... no one in sight!! Murphy's Law. I found the one I was looking for, but...wrong colour, so I decided to just go home and not push my luck.
We get to the parking lot and as I take her out of the stroller, she decides she wants to snap the security clip back together (something she does every single time!) and then she decides she wants to "hold it", the stroller that is, and push it around the parking lot with her frog in it. I let her, because it looks cute.
So I wait patiently for a few minutes,.....everyone coming in and out is looking ...then I decide that is time to go, well, not Isabella, she wants to keep "holding the stroller"...... few more minutes and I finally just take the toy away and put her in the car seat... ha ha
Bad idea, of course, because she just started crying and crying.....
Eventually she gave up and on our way home she is as happy as she can be, we get home and she wants a bath, so I give her one and she goes to sleep without any fuss. Close call!!!

Hi, I am Rachael! Some looser at camp (work)dislocated my shoulder and now I cannot help my sister take care of Isabella . Would you like to see more funny pictures? Drop me a line....

Summer Time!

2005-08-12T06:56:00.000-04:00

I just love the summer....being outside this year has been a bit difficult, because of the heat, and because mamy cannot stand the heat (being prego and all), but we still managed to get the last of the sunrays at the end of the day.

I Love the sun!!!

2005-08-05T14:43:00.000-04:00

Just caching some sunrays!!
Here I am playing at home with mami and the sun. Mami will be spending some more time with me this coming year as we spend another year together...hopefully I can give her a hand with my sis. Papi says he will help also.

I viewed the Blog

2005-08-03T11:22:00.000-04:00

Hello, I viewed the blog.... very neat. i'll try to post some pics of Isabella.

For funny reasons we stopped calling it a party, I still do.

Cruise control, baby!

2005-08-03T08:33:00.000-04:00

Welcome

2005-08-02T15:28:00.000-04:00

I've been reading blogs for a few months now and I thought it would be a nice and easy way to keep in touch with friends and family.
