So, I realized it's been a while since I've written on the blog, but it's quite late so I'm just gonna think of a few fun facts about our kids just to get me going....hopefully another day this week, I'll have time to write more...so, here goes:
SEBASTIAN:
*the most active little boy I've ever seen...he runs around (never walks) all day and all night,trying to find something to get into...or touch....or eat....
*is starting to talk a lot...his fave word is "no" while shaking his head
*is getting shy around other people.When someone talks to him, he turns his head as if he doesn't hear them...
*he is starting to cry when one of us leaves, which shows more attachment.
*is getting BIG...he's almost 2 and wearing 2t and went up a size in shoes.
*is starting to be picky about food,where he used to eat ANYTHING...now, he has a new thing where, if he doesn't like something, he'll hold it in his mouth instead of not eating it or spitting it out...gross!!!!
*he calls Mia "Dia", and Helayna "Na Na"...so cute!
MIA:
*talks about school, NON STOP....her friends, her teachers, what she had for lunch, what days she has speech, PE, music, library, etc...
*has a CRAZY memory for details...dates, times, schedules, etc...when we forget something, we ask her and she usually knows. She knows what we are doing on what day and what time and if we don't follow through, she has to know why....
*will ask what time it is, like 5 times a day...I GOTTA teach that girl to tell time.
*has a new found love for Justin Bieber, after I took her to see his movie. Like mother, like daughter...heehee...
*gets SO excited for the small things...staying home or going anywhere with just me, watching a movie, going to the park, her $5 allowance and the ability to spend it on whatever she wants, and of course, when she has playdates with her friends...being 7 is so fun!
HELAYNA:
*is an A and B student and we are SO proud of her...she works so hard and is dedicated to her schoolwork.
*loves hanging out with us and our friends and that makes me so happy...we even fight about who was friends with them first, us or her! (oh, and also about who is closer to their age, since most of our friends are younger than us...)
*is such a huge help to me and I don't know what I'd do without her.
*loves Haiti so much, that it warms my heart...she made Eric promise to take her next time he goes...
*is just as beautiful inside as she is on the outside...
*has major talent in styling her hair and I'm jealous!
*loves photography (like me!) but is better than me at it already..she is going to do some photograpy for Leve Project and she is so excited!
*was so sad when her bff Kendall moved to TX in January that she cried harder than I've ever seen her cry.
*thinks she may want to be a nurse and is already looking into ways to pursue that.
*is much more mature than her 15 years and I love that about her.
That's it for now...although I could probably think of so much more....But there's a little glimpse into our kids...They sure make our life exciting, fun, crazy and wonderful every day...
