Hello again!

It's been awhile since I posted anything, sorry to the few family members that actually read this. Anthony has kept us busy and exhausted every day and night but it's always fun to just watch him do his thing. We did make our way to see Sesame street live last week. He loved the show as much as he did last year. This time though he was aware of all the toys being sold for a ridiculous amount of money. I hoped that the toy he had spotted would be forgotten by the time the show ended but it wasn't. Then we walked around afterwards while I told him that I didn't think they had anymore. Finally, I gave in and bought him the light up elmo spinner thingy that if found at walmart would cost 5 bucks but here I dished out 15 dollars. He was so happy to get it and looked up at me and said "see, I told you I wanted it." as if I had been doubting it the entire time. Best part though was as we walked to the car holding hands and he said "Thanks mom, that was a lot of fun!"

I took a picture of him in the exact same spot he took one last year. I figure as long as he still is into elmo that I will take one every year. Whidh probably means that next year will be his last year going to it.






This past weekend we made our way to the great Rio Grande Valley for my cousins baby shower. It was a quick and short trip but I enjoyed getting to spend time with my family. Anthony had a blast playing with his cousin. I wish she lived here so she could wear him out as much as she did this weekend. They played nonstop all day. He had so much fun playing hide and seek, tag, and pretending to be everything imaginable like taking turns being fire breathing dragons.
Hanging out with a little girl he met at the shower. I felt like it looked like I could see this exact same thing in 14 years. Him trying to sweet talk a girl he just met.
Are you sure this is a baby shower cake????
Cheesing with his cousin.
A couple of random pics.
Him celebrating the new year.
This is what happens when we let his hair get to long.

It's exciting to live the moments and still exciting to read the moments,just can't ever get enough. Enjoyed having you guys with us, still can't get over how well Anthony did when you two went to the store without him, he had loads of fun playing and meeting other family members. I guess our little boy is growing up faster then we think. So so much fun,can't wait to see you guys again. love abuelita y abuelito
