Owen and Emma


This weekend I got to spend some time with my niece and nephew in New York City. My nephew, Owen, was so curious about the baby in my tummy and he constantly wanted to talk to the baby and hug and kiss the baby. It was sooooo adorable.

On Sunday morning, I was reading a book to Owen and Emma called "Baby On the Way." In one part of the book it says that when you hug your Mommy, you are also giving the baby in her tummy a hug. I decided to insert "Auntie Melissa" where is said Mommy in the book and Emma stopped and decided that she needed to give the baby in my tummy a hug right then. She and Owen gave me a big hug around my tummy and it was so cute.

Owen kept asking me when the baby was going to come out and Celeste and I kept telling him that he would be coming after Christmas. I'm so glad that I got to spend a few days so that they could get to know their "Auntie 'Lissa" better. :-) I'm hoping that I'll be able to go back for a visit after the baby is born. This is a video of Owen talking to the baby. In the video I suggest a few baby names that Israel and I like (Aaron and Jonathan are the top picks so far) but we haven't decided on a name yet.

I'm so jealous, what do I have to do to talk to the the little Miguelito and give your tummy a hug? I'll make some garlic cauliflower, it's anyways high time to have you over for dinner again.

Owen and Emma are adorable and so honest and sincere.

That video is so cute! Little Owen is so darling, even though you hate how much of a spoiled brat he is. :P

April Conference Breakfast

Image
Every April and October, our family gets together at my parents' house during the LDS General Conference on Sunday morning for a big breakfast. The food is great and I love seeing some of my cousins who live in the area. Israel has missed it since he joined the choir, but we enjoy watching him on TV. Here are a few of the group shots that were taken today in between conference sessions. We miss those of our family who live far away or who couldn't make it. xoxo

Beatles Birthday Weekend!

Image
To celebrate my birthday, my sister Jessica and I went down to Vegas to see the Beatles Love show at the Mirage. It was an amazing show and we had a great weekend. We stayed with my friend, Andrea, who is Tamara's little sister. On Friday night we went to Chevy's (my favorite Tex-Mex restaurant) and then went to see the water show at the Bellagio. On Saturday we went the buffet at the Wynn and had a quick shopping trip at our favorite store, H&M. Then we rushed off to the show and afterwards we celebrated with non-alcoholic Pina Coladas at Caesar's Palace. I had one of the best birthday's ever. It was such a quick trip but it was really fun to have a girl's weekend together--our first ever! I am so lucky to have the best sister in the world!!!
