Trying out the Bumbo chairs

The girls are getting much better at holding their heads up, so I decided to try out the Bumbo chairs we got at one of the baby showers.

Happy 4th of July

Here are the Eva and Sofia in their Independence Day attire

Playtime

The girls love their playtime. We sing, read, and spend some time on our tummies.

Sleeping Babies

Don't they look so comfy!

Tia Lindsay and Tio Kevin

We love getting visitors, especially when they are as special as Lindsay and Kevin. Here are the girls with their Tia and Tio. Eva and Sofia are soon going to have a new friend. Lindsay is due on August 17th with her second child, a boy!! We all can't wait to meet him.

Afternoon in the Park

Saturday all of us walked to Belmont Harbor and enjoyed a picnic lunch. It was a beautiful day!!

Tia Adri

The girls are lucky to have so many Tias and Tios. Here they are with their Tia Adri

Family Trip to the Dog Beach!!!

We went to the dog beach over the weekend. The boys love it there. And the girls love the cozy nap they take snuggled up with Mama and Papa.

We Love Bathtime!

One of my most favorite times of day is bathtime. The girls love to get a bath. They love the feeling of the spray on their bodies. It must feel like a little massage to them.

We are getting so big!

It is amazing how fast my little girls are growing. They seem to change everyday. They are both now cooing, and smiling. They will stare at you intensely with their big brown eyes. But their favorite thing to look at are the skylights in our bedroom. They could stare at those for hours.

Happy Father's Day!!

Sunday was Rick's first father's day. His girls wore special outfits that day, to make sure everybody knew how much they love their Papa. The girls and I are very lucky to have him in our lives.

My dad also celebrated his first father's day as a grandpa, or as the girls call him, Nono (Italian for grandpa). And as you can see both Nono and Abuelito (Rick's dad) are proud of their granddaughters.

Hot Summer Days

During these hot days, the girls have been dressing appropriately to stay cool on our walks.

Sunhats

Here are our superstar babies! Ready to catch some rays.

Tia Vanessa

We have been lucky to have Tia Vanessa with us these last couple days. The girls have loved having her with them, and so have I!!!

Babysitting

As Lincoln found out, babysitting the two girls isn't easy.

Sleeping Beauties

The Kids

Oliver, Eva, Sofia, and Lincoln

Here are "the boys" and "the girls" on their daily afternoon walk.

Our Nona and Tia

Our Nona and Tia Marlene came to visit us yesterday. Our Tia bought us the most beautiful outfits and dresses, and our Nona also bought us a pair of cute outfits. We are very thankful!!!

One Month!

Monday was Eva and Sofia's one month birthday. I cannot believe that they have been with us for one month already. They aren't kidding when they say that time flies. The girls are growing so fast and are everyday developing their own personality. Eva is so alert, and curious. She is the most calm sleeper, and is pretty happy-go-lucky, unless she gets angry, then watch out. Sofia is always ready to EAT!!! She has a bottomless pit for stomach. She looks at you with this serious face letting you know she means business. Eva is long and thin, and Sofia is long and chubby!! But both are the most beautiful things I have ever seen. Rick and I are blessed, and we can't wait for the next several months when they start interacting with us more.
