Some Videos of the Boys

We were messing around the other night and I captured a few videos of the boys...enjoy!


This video really cracks me up. I took a ball and hit it with that stick that Bash has. I was showing that to Joaquin and Bash saw me and was hitting every ball with that stick. He makes me laugh...



As always, Joaquin was very aware of the camera and here he is playing and hamming it up! He is so funny...he skips around when he is playing. He says he loves his Gaca and Bapa in this one...





Another video of the boys playing.

Some Christmas Photos

Thanks to everyone for the great Christmas gifts!

Mary and Dave, as always, you have great taste in clothes for the boys. They both love their shirts and here are a few pics of them wearing them. Sorry we couldn't get pics with everyone looking at the camera smiling, but I did my best. The boys did not want to take their naps as they were too excited, so they were not very tolerant of the picture requests.




Kathy and Roman, thank you so much for the books, Thomas Aquadoodle, and blocks. The boys love them and have been competing to see who gets to play with them! :)

Mom and Dad, as always, you were too generous. I couldnt believe the size of the box and the amount of stuff you fit in there. Thanks so much! You have spoiled us and the boys.

Here is a short video of the boys begging their daddy to open their remote control cars. They really like them!!



Merry Christmas everyone and thank you!!

More pics to come!

Funny Bath Time Video

Here is a funny video of Joaqo and Bash taking a bath. They like to pretend they are making hot chocolate.

I started playing with the video capabilities of my new cell phone and caught some nice videos. Here is the first one I took with my phone...



I took this one shortly after the first. I was focusing on Bash and I think Joaquin got a little jealous. Joaquin's face when he jumps in front of the camera made me laugh so many times!!



Here is a video of Joaquin just before we got on the roller coaster...



And this one was when we were first in line waiting to board. I love how excited he is when I ask him if he is excited.



A few short vids of Bash waiting for the merry go round to start up...





A few videos of the parade...







A shot of the Ferris Wheel o' Death. Ok, maybe not o' Death as there is a big face of Mickey Mouse on the side, but dang that was one intense ride! I heard a lot of screaming as it was going around, but Joaqo and Daddy hung tough. Mommy did a great job of keeping it together, but Bash was not pleased!!



Really cool Tron area at Disney. That is where there was the DJ and Joaquin was gettin' down!





And again, our favorite video of them all, Joaquin gettin down!!

More Disney Pics and Vids

The order of these pics will seem a bit odd as they add them to the top of the message instead of adding them to the bottom. So, the first pics you see are of the boys wiped out from their long day at Disney.

We had a lot of good times in one loooong day! i have never seen Sebastien so excited as he was jumping up and down so much during the parade. We saw characters from Monsters, A Bug's Life, Toy Story, Cars, Finding Nemo, and I am sure a few others. He really had a great time and i could only find a few decent shots of Bash since they are all so blurry from him jumping up and down so much.

There is also a big ferris wheel that we all went on. We were in one of the moving cars and I have included a picture of the tracks the moving cars slide on. After we got off that ride we looked at the ferris wheel with a whole new level of respect. It was pretty scary, but a lot of fun!

We also saw Mickey, of course, and the Christmas tree. Joaqo also took his daddy on a bumper car ride. I took Joaqo on his first roller coaster ride. I have included a few pics of the ride and will be attaching some videos shortly.

Overall, we had a great trip. Videos to follow...

Crazy video of Joaquin Dancing!! We know it is hard to see, but it was so funny to see him getting down to the music. He really has some moves!!

Catching Up is the New Normal

So we jumped from Joaqo's birthday to Halloween where he was a greaser - sooooo adorable!!! He was able to say "trick treat" to most people and got some candy. Auntie J and Uncle C came for a visit and we got to go hiking and visit the zoo with them. Halloween then rushed into Thanksgiving and now here we are at Christmas. Joaqo has embraced the Santa concept wholeheartedly and points him out everywhere we go. We went to see him last week so Joaqo could tell him he wanted choo choos for Christmas. Joaqo was psyched and called out "Santa, choo choo" a few times when we got to the zoo where Santa was making an appearance that evening. It was probably a little overwhelming for the litte man bc when it came time to sit on the old guy's lap Joaqo got a little scared and wanted his Daddy. No worries, Santa gave him a candy cane which he was pretty darned excited about and everything was fine. He's even seen these pics of him crying on Santa's lap and doesn't acknowledge that he was upset.
Here are some pics - Happy Holidays!!!!!
