Blessing from The Lord

I know sometimes it could sound "too much" for some people, but when you have a precious life such as a child on your hands you can't do anything to help the overwhelming joy you feel inside your heart! So we talk about it, we facebook about it, we blog about it, we just want to share the God given blessing with those we love!


I thank God for many sisters-by-heart that walked or are walking in the same shoes I am because being a mama for the first time definitely brings some challenges and new adventures!

We just took Julia for her 6 month appointment, so here is some of her latest accomplishments:
-She is 14.1lb (6.395kg)
-27in long (68.58cm)
-2 bottom teeth
-some extra hair just behind the years - p e r f e c t for "pig tails"
-giggles, and uablusss
-winks
-eat cereal;
-eat bananas
-and only drinks mama's milk :), yes I'm breasfeeding since she was born;
-and just tonight she set by herself for the 1st time :)
Rafa and I are so proud of her, and it's really fun to get to know her little personality each day. We have many family members and friends overseas, so we hope this will give you a little bit of an idea of how our daughter is doing! Children are blessings from The Lord, and we are so thankful He chose us to be Julia's parents!!!
