Wish I had more time for more things!


Tickling my Shobbis

I don't know but ever since Sans Geebins (Thanksgiving) time seems to fly right by. I can't believe that we're in February already! Damn. I really haven't had much time to update this. Seems like this year is going to be one of my busiest years yet and I'm completely ready for it. Stand in my way, and yes, you will get knocked the f..down :)

I'm so glad I already filed for my taxes, got that off my to-do list. Made an appointment for Sophie to see a pediatric gastroenterologist, I suspect she might be allergic to Gluten..I pray that she's not but she has a lot of the signs of Celiac Disease. I can't even begin to imagine the nightmare this is going to be, It's bad enough she's allergic to the protein in Cow's milk. This little girl loves to eat! Any and everything you give her! Just to give you a little idea of what I'm talking about,
"If you have celiac disease and eat foods with gluten, your immune system responds by damaging the small intestine. Gluten is a protein in wheat, rye and barley. It is found mainly in foods but may also be in other products like medicines, vitamins and even the glue on stamps and envelopes."

I have to start a sketch of the groom's cake I'm making for Jean. I know it's going to be poker/Vegas themed. It only makes sense to incorporate those two; He loves poker and he proposed in Vegas. I also have to go find a dress,shoes,hair ties for Sophia for the wedding. And lets not forget my dress alterations, because even though it was custom made to my exact measurements, it doesn't fit because of the weight I've lost in the past 3 or 4 months. Yay go me! I don't know the exact number  but I can tell you I went about 3 sizes down in shirts and about 4 in pants. Oh it's so much easier to shop at stores now. haha I need to stay away from the mall. I also have to get shoes,decide how I'm going to wear this dress (there's 50+ ways to wear it!),do my hair, help my mother find a dress for herself. 

Que fajas, ni que fajas.
This weekend I'm supposed to help my sister paint her house.This past weekend I helped her do some spring cleaning and we didn't even cover 20% of the house..ah the horror that awaits us! After the wedding, my mother is supposed to be moving, so we have to repack our lives and find a new place.
I love these, they're so cute!
Playing with her "button"


 All while this is going on, I'm trying to figure out whats the best school to go to with the best curriculum for either Culinary or Pastry Arts. It's astonishing to me that Miami has a myriad of places where you can indulge in some of the best tasting food but doesn't have a variety of schools where you can go to and learn how to master your skills in the kitchen. Tsk tsk Miami, tsk tsk.  (note to self :This is another reason why I must get out of here) 


Please bear with me while I try to balance all these and other things in my life.(Along with this blog.) Thanks :)



This is all her, posing on her own.
She does this when she sees a camera or phone pointed at her. 

My awesome HoodieBuddie. Everyone should get one!



Of course I have videos for you guys to see. This little pulgita is growing up so quick! Thanks to technology I will be able to show her how quick she grew and what a character she was from day one :)




Her walking to the car. She loves being independent. 

She LOVES to dance, and when I say LOVE I mean she dances for and to EVERYTHING!

Let's talk about Amazing things happening...

I'd like to know why no one told me about Amazing Savings. This place really is amazing. For those of you that don't know what amazing savings is kinda like a really super cheap Walgreens without a pharmacy. If anyone has a chance you should totally check it out. Most things are $2. Like books,slippers,toys,items for laundry, a bunch of toys! They have about 2 isle of toys and board games for under $15. I love it. 


Anyways I did Gary's taxes on Tuesday. We get our refund next week and that means, we will officially be able to get our own place and afford it along with bills for a couple months. How AMAZING is this? Let's just say to me it's heaven on earth. Sorry Gary, but I know you agree. ;) 


I've been looking for apartments and it bugs me that rent is so high in NYC. But I guess thats the price we pay to live here. Nothing in life is free. I just want a place with a lot of sunlight and windows. I don't want to be stuck in a basement but at this point it's not about wants, it's about needs. And we NEED our own place.



Look how cute we were when we met. :)




She's such a mess when she eats.



The moment I saw this I was like "OMG! I have to get it for her!!"
It's this huge foam camera that you can actually remove the "lens" and put a picture in it. It's a huge 3D frame.
