Major Update

So...Having 2 kids is keeping me pretty busy! I'm so sorry for the lack of blogging. As if I wasn't bad enough, I think I may get worse before I get better. Ok. Since there are a TON of pictures (sorry, mostly cell phone quality), I'm going to tell our last 8 weeks in pics and a very few words!

Here is our little man just a few days after he was born. While I was home resting and getting to know this little guy Michael took very good care of our Chloe girl. He kept her SOO Busy...I hardly saw her. They went to Disneyland, zoo, park, spectrum, shopping, the orange balloon...Fun!
Daddy took Chloe on a date to Disneyland!!!
She DID NOT want to leave!!! This is real raw emotion! Can u handle it? So cute and dramatic!!
The orange balloon! Always a winner...and its free!
Thanksgiving came a short 2 weeks after Drake was born! We were so blessed to have my entire family home! Look how much we have grown! In just a year we have added 3 beautiful babies! (Michael is holding up a #1 bc he finished 1st in our annual Rodriguez Turkey Trot).
One of his 1st social smiles
He is so cute! I'm so in love!
Cutest frown ever!
Chloe and I did a lot of painting this holiday season!
Sometimes I find her doing this with her baby doll...She is very observant this little girl of mine! Haha!
Just hanging out!
Drake had is 1 month dr appt. He didn't fare too well with his shots! So sad! Big sis was there to give him lots of love and comfort. (9lbs 10oz, 23 inches)
The Christmas tree! After my mom put the lights on it Chloe would run over to it every 5 mins and say, "It's so pretty!" Then in the morning when the lights were not on, she said, "mommy, make it pretty!" So cute!
Decorating!
Chloe loves Drake, always wanting to hold him, kiss him, touch him! ALWAYS!
Gingerbread houses!!
morning snuggles! I love having both my babies snuggling with me each and every morning!
Christmas Eve at Fashion Island! Look how big she is getting. I can't take it.
The little girls in front of the huge Fashion Island Christmas tree!
Both babies on Christmas eve
Since my mom made all the grand kids pj's for Christmas we decided to do slippers for Christmas eve gift.
Drake on Christmas Day!!
Over our holiday break...We spent lots of time at the beach!
Played with our Christmas gifts
And spent lots of time with family! We really enjoyed our Christmas season! It always comes and goes too quickly! I will have to post more on Christmas morning. I haven't gotten around to downloading those pics yet...but that is another post for another day. This post took me 2 hours to do with all of my interruptions. TOO long for me! Anyways...until next time (Hopefully not too long from now). BYE.
