Happy 4th of July/Feliz 4 de Julio

Today we had a wonderful day in Eden where Mac's parents live. In the morning we had the primnary parade where Lili and John were part of it. Also Farrah (Carly's daughter), Emma, Lindsey and Christian (Nikki's kids) were there. After that, we went to the Huntsville parade where Lili slept in the stroller pretty much the whole time. This year we didn't go to see the fireworks but we hope to see them next year. Today was a really fun day. I love the 4th of July. It reminds me of New Years Eve in Argentina because it is hot, there are parties going on and there are fireworks.

Hoy pasamos un dia hermoso en Eden en donde los padres de Mac viven. A la manana tuvimos un defile de los chicos en la cual Lili y John participaron. Tambien estaba Farrah (la hija de Carly), Emma, Lindsey y Christian (los hijos de Nikki). Despues de ahi fuimos al desfile de Huntsville donde Lili durmio casi todo el tiempo en el carrito. Este ano no fuimos a ver los fuegos artificiales pero esperamos verlos el ano que viene. Hoy fue un dia muy divertido. Me encanta el 4 de Julio porque me hace acordar de fin de ano en Argentina porque hace calor, hay fiestas y hay fuegos artificiales.

Lili before the primary parade. We couldn’t get her to smile.

At the primary parade Lili rode her tricycle and John rode in the double stroller with Farrah
En el desfile Lili fue en su triciclo y John fue en el carrito doble con Farrah

Lili did really good in her tricycle but sometimes she needed a little bit of help and so I had to push her so that we could catch up with Colleen that was pushing John and Farrah in the stroller.
Lili manejo muy bien en su triciclo pero debes en cuando necesitaba un poquito de ayuda asi que la tuve que empujar para poder alcanzar a Colleen que estaba empujando a John y Farrah en el carrito

At the Huntsville parade John was having so much fun while Lili was asleep in the stroller

Happy 4th of July!!

ExerSaucer

John has been getting kind of tired of being in the swing and the bouncer lately. So today I decided it was time to get the ExcerSaucer out of the box and set it up for him. We bought it when Lili was around 6 months and she really enjoyed it. It looks like John is enjoying it very much too. Here are some pictures of John and Lili after I put John in it for the first time.

Ultimamente John se ha cansado de estar siempre en la sillita/amaca asi que hoy decidi sacar de la caja el Excersaucer y armarlo para el. Lo compramos cuando Lili tenia alrededor de 6 meses y le encanto. Parece que a John tambien le gusta mucho. Aqui hay algunas fotos de John y Lili despues de que lo puse a John en el ExcerSaucer por primera vez.



Of course Lili needed to show John how to work this thing

Por supuesto Lili tenia que mostrarle como funciona

I think in this last one Lili is trying to tell John that it is her turn now (ha ha ha)

Me parece que en esta ultima foto Lili le esta tratando de decir a John que es el turno de ella ahora (ja ja ja)

Getting Started/Empezando

Me and Lili

Mac and Lili


John


I finally decided it was time to start my own blog. I've wanted to do it for a long time but I just never sat down to do it. Carly, my sister-in-law, is the one that got me into it. She has the best blog. She is so creative!!! I don't think I'll have it as cute as hers but I'll try my best to update my blog once in a while so you know what is happening in our family. I really don't know where to start. I have so many things I'll like to write that I don't know what to say first. I guess I'll start by saying that I love my little family.

Finalmente he decidido que ya era tiempo de empezar mi propia pagina de internet. He querido hacer esto por bastante tiempo pero nunca me he sentado a hacerlo. Mi cunada Carly es la que me motivo a hacerlo. Ella tiene su propia pagina y es re linda. No creo que la mia va a ser tan linda como la de ella pero voy a hacer lo posible para ir poniendo nueva informacion sobre los acontecimientos de nuestra familia. Realmente no se por donde empezar. Hay tantas cosas que me gustaria escribir que no se que decir primero. Pero voy a empezar por decir que amo a mi familia.
