Girl Outnumbered

My baby boy is growing up so fast and I can’t stop it! Although he is only two years old, my baby runs around like he is a four year old like his big brother. I guess following Diego around all day influences his demeanor. I decided this summer we will start potty training my baby boy. I think he is ready. He does so many big boy things now, I think he can handle potty training. Still as much of a big boy he THINKS he is, he is still my baby and I ‘am still kind of reluctant.

For those of you who don’t know, Dylan is quite  the serious one and a bit shy. It takes ALOT of time and maybe some bribing before he warms up to you. At home and with people he feels comfortable with, he is a big silly clown.

Dylan is not one for group pictures, as you can tell by these couple of photos. He is so camera shy.  

Once you break through the wall, he will love you forever. I guess he is a lot like me.

Oh how I love those big brown eyes and curly hair. He has yet to get a haircut, but each day his hair has been getting messier and longer and I’ am tempted to take him for his first trim.

And as sweet and loveable and charming my little man is, he can also be very dramatic and throw a tantrum at the drop of a dime.

Stay tuned, for future  potty training photo ops and disasters from this adorable and wild dude!

My cousin welcomed her 5th baby girl Vieanna Marcela into the world a few weeks ago, and I had the opportunity to photograph her a few days later. She is such a sweet baby, and lucky for me she slept the whole time.

This is a picture of my friend and her baby girl Vella Rue. This is my favorite picture! You see, Vella Rue was not a very happy camper that day, so Mom took a little break and was just loving on her and trying to soothe her. I started to snap my camera and I loved the outcome!

All I want or need on any given day: these beautiful smiles.

Before I had kids I used to hope I would not be that annoying Mom that talked about their kids all day long and the cute and not so cute things they do. Now I understand what those Moms felt. I want to always remember the silly things Diego says.

#1

Me: Diego, it’s almost my birthday.

Diego: It is??

Me: Yes, what are you getting me?

Diego: Do you like dinosaurs?

Me: Is this gift for ME or for YOU?

Diego: Umm, for me.

#2

Me: We caught the bad man Diego.

Diego: They got Batman?!!

The night we heard of Osama’s death, Diego was watching the news with me, and I was trying to explain to him what was going on.

#3

Diego: Can you buy Dylan a dinosaur, so I don’t have to share mine.

#4

Diego: I know all about dinosaurs Mom. I ‘am  a scientist.

#5

Diego: Your so pretty Mom.

Me: Thank you baby, your such a sweet-

Diego: PRETTY UGLY!!!

This is mostly my fault, since I taught him that joke.

Isn’t my baby boy the cutest little thing you have ever seen? I love my rebellious, curly haired dude more and more. My baby boy is in a hurry to be a BIG BOY like his big brother, and I’ am not so happy about that. For now I will just enjoy my baby boy all I can. Good thing he still likes to snuggle, and needs me to kiss his war wounds.
