It is official!

It is official! Lia is now legally ours! We have been her family for 7 months now. She has grown so much and we cannot imagine life without her. She truly was meant to be with us. Her little smile and personalty just brighten our lives. We love her so much and now we can't wait to be sealed to her in the temple. She is truly our second miracle child! How lucky are we?!

Mini Tigeress Woods, Baseball and Lia

Doesn't she just make you smile? What a little joy she has been...we love Lia so much!

So, we were able to play a little softball this past weekend...I had so much fun. We did okay...but I hope to do better next time...Thanks Jeff for putting it all together.

The cutest little softball player ever...

Hannah and her dad have started golfing in our back yard...Hannah just loves it. Who knows...maybe she will be the next Tigeress Woods.

Hannah took this picture of her dad...pretty good I thought. She usually only gets the lower half of our bodies. So I was a little proud that this one turned out great.

Birthday Fun!

Her favorite present so far...a baby with her own car seat! From Auntie Natalia and Uncle Luis...good job guys :)

a doctor kit...she has given me a physical everyday now...thanks Gramma :?

Money!

Tinker Bell Movie!

Blowing out her candles...or should I say spitting them out :O

Her first Barbie doll!

A group of happy kids!

Okay, so Hannah had a great weekend with family and friends. We went to Build-a-Bear (which was awesome for birthdays!) then my dad came up and Hannah's aunt and uncle came over to celebrate! She seemed to love everything and as most of you know she told everyone about her birthday. That is all she talked about for days. It is such a fun age, they understand what is going on and as a mom, it makes it that much more fun! Thank you everyone for celebrating with us and wishing her a happy birthday. I love being a mom of a 3 year old (most of the time)

Hannah is turning 3!

Where does the time go? My baby is turning 3 years old this Sunday. How can I express how grateful I am to have her in our lives. We shed so many tears and went through so much to get her here. And now she is turning 3! Time is a crazy thing. We love her more than ever now and she keeps us busy and laughing. She is so smart and kind. She loves her little sister, Lia. She is full of energy and questions. She loves to dance, play ball and anything that keeps her moving. She has such a sweet spirit. She loves to pray and go to church. I love my two girls and I thank God everyday for them. Happy Birthday Hannah! We love you!

Warning, this may be shocking to animal lovers...

So, Hannah is still learning how to clean, and as you can see everything goes...even bears in the oven. Not sure why she thought he fit in there, but there he is. She is just too funny! LOL

Lakers and Flavio

Flavio and I went to the Lakers vs. Jazz on Thursday...it was a lot of fun and very exciting!

I could not believe how packed the center was...it was soooooo loud, I thought I was going to go deaf right then and there...

So, this is Flavio's favorite basketball player (Kobe Bryant)...I have to admit he is good...but I have never been a fan.

There was a lot of great plays...mostly by the Jazz. Everyone was up and down cheering and booing...while Flavio would get up all by himself when the Lakers did something great...it was funny.

This was a funny sign (that sould have won the sign contest) they were right behind us.

And in the end, the Jazz won. They deserved it. They played really well, and Kobe didn't. I have to admit, I have never been a Jazz fan...I really am a Spurs fan. But, I think I was secretly routing for the Jazz...and just cheering with my husband for support. :)

But we had a blast and I love going out with my cute husband! He really is a gem!

I turned the corner...

So we are attempting to get Hannah to keep her room clean, as that is where all of her toys are currently. Well, as I am sure a lot of you may understand, this has not been an easy task. She usually ends up playing with all her toys in the process and forgets what she should be doing. Well, tonight, she came to me and yelled, "Mama, I did it, I did it!" So I went in her room and sure enough the floor was clean! I was so proud, then I turned the corner and saw her closet...oh, our funny, funny Hannah. We just had to laugh and share with everyone.
