The "Mod" do

Noelle at 2 months

Noelle at almost 5 months

Just demonstrating Noelle's hairstyle. Again I don't do this to her, it does it all by itself! Since she was 2 months old! Let me explain the style as the pictures don't really show the true essence of it. Just the hair at the crown sticks straight up and it sweeps together in the middle forming a very stylish faux-hawk. So sweet. David Beckham, you've got nothin' on this faux-hawk. A little lady can pull it off just as lovely.

P.S. Jesse's hair did the same thing at the same age

Miss Noelle

Here is the most recent picture of Noelle. I just took them as of 10 minutes ago and loaded them on the computer! She is pretty cute if I do say so myself! Such a fun age too (FYI - 5 months)! And her hair, it just sticks straight up all by itself. No product, no styling:) Miss mod hair-do girl! Au naturale, at that.

Jesse and Noelle

Noelle at about 1 month old, and Jesse at crazy 3 years old

So here are my updates on Noelle, as promised!

Jesse adores her, almost a little too much. Well, I guess that is not such a bad thing unless you are three years old. He just can't stand not being 2 inches away from her face. And it's like she anticipates it too, her eyes grow wider and she tenses up a little every time. But we know it's because Jesse loves her so much, he just can't help it. But for now he needs a little

supervision ;)

These are my pictures from Christmas as you can tell. They were my little Christmas Elves:)

Close...

closer...

Maybe a little too close...

Another case in point...

Leaning over...

Nooo...Not close enough...

Much better!

Noelle's a lucky little girl to have such a awesome big brother!

Finally a post! Dedicated to our Bundle of Joy!

Three days old and peacefully asleep, of course!

First of all forgive me because it has been far too long since I have written anything on this blog of mine. And second, I have not blogged because I just haven't. But I do have plenty to blog about!

I feel that I should finally introduce you to the little bundle who looks like a Madame Alexander Doll, our baby Noelle. My little Mini Me but, of course, much, much cuter, so much cuter.

Noelle Maria

December 13th, 2010

7lbs, 9 0z

20 1/2 inches

Who is now a delightful almost 3 month old (Um, sorry for the lack of blogging) who smiles like it's nobody's business but her own. Love, love her! What can I say, I think it is safe to say that we are all in love with Noelle. And you should really come see her in person because she will steal your heart, too!

To answer those of you with one little bambino, having 2 munchkins is slightly more tricky, and to those of you with 3+ little tykes, I know you are laughing at me right now. I'm just taking it one at a time. I am just blessed to have 2 darling little kids!

p.s. I will post her other more recent pictures in a day or two. I want you to "relish" her newborn cuteness, since I didn't post these pictures earlier.

Day at the Park!

So our little family and our dogs went to the park and I just wanted to post some of the pictures. So fun!

Penny thought the plastic bag was alive!

Crazy Dogs

Funny Looking Penny!

An unusually calm Bosco!

Penny may be funny looking, but she is fearless!

Cute Jesse!

Jesse likes to pretend to be a spider on the web!

OctoberFest!

This digital slideshow made with Smilebox

Here is a slideshow of our Halloween! You may need to turn off the music of my blog so it doesn't clash with the music of the slideshow?

P.S. I already made our summer and vacation slideshow way back in the early days of fall, but it is not posting! But I am trying to figure out what is wrong! So do not be confused if suddenly I post a summertime slideshow in the middle of winter! It's just the madness of my method.

Just an update.

I have been posting some new recipes on my recipe blog, so check them out please. Even if it is just for the cool pictures I took with our new camera. I am still trying to catch up. So I will post the slideshow of some of our summer adventures, and I will also post something about our trip to New Orleans, so fun!
