Catherine...3 months old!

Dear Catherine,

Can anyone be as sweet as you?  NO!!!  You are the sweetest baby ever.  Mami loves you so, so much!!!  We are bff you know?
You have such a good disposition.  You laugh and smile all the time.
I love it when you giggle!  You bring a smile to my face every time I see you!
You have grown so much lately.  You are using 3-6 month clothing.  I love dressing you up.
You love to swing on the swing, play on the jumper, and the exersauser.  Jordan loves to entertain you and "help" out.  I have to keep an eye on him constantly.  Sometimes he's just too helpful!
You love to eat and sleep and be played with.  Everyone is in love with you!
You are daddy's little princess and he loves to be with you.  As soon as he gets home from work, the first thing he does is wash his hands so he can hold you...and "chit-chat."
You make the cutest little sounds...it seems like you understand when we talk to you.
Daddy and I love you tons and tons!
mami

Chepuk...Jordan 2 yrs old!

Dear Jordan,

You are two now.  You turned two in South Africa and they threw you an awesome party.  TRAINS was the theme.  You loved it.  Every time you see the pics, you say, "Jordan...Trains..."  You are getting so big.  I know I say this so much in these posts, but it's true.  It seems like I blink and you get bigger.  You are so sweet...intelligent...funny...persistent...adorable!  I love you so much!!
Chepuk, by the way, means ketchup.  Which you want in everything.
You think you are a big man right now.  You can't fully talk.  You are still saying lots of words.  Sometimes in spanish, sometimes in english...but you act as if you talked in full sentences and you move your hands like me.  I love it!
You also love to tell people things.  For example, the day that we were going to South Africa, daddy backed the car up to put the luggage in the back.  You were out and about and it was a little cold, so daddy closed the garage door and unfortunately closed it on the car...nothing happened to the car, but the garage door got a little dented and it displaced the glass, which fell on the floor and made a huge crashing noise.  Well, now you tell everyone, "Daddy...car....pum!!!"
You are also playing with bibi all the time.  That's your nickname for baby sister.
I love it when you play with her.  I want you both to be best friends for life!
You have been so sweet lately.  You also want to be with me all the time...that makes me so happy!
Daddy and you are best buddies!  You love it when he's home and you play together.  It doesn't matter what he's doing...you love being with your daddy!
You are a lot of fun right now...and a lot of work.  It's basically nonstop fun from the moment you wake up, till nap time or bed time!  I get a little tired, but I can honestly tell you that when I go to sleep every night, I can't wait to see you again the next morning!
I love you!
mami
