L'oved Baby...

Alejandro in his L'ovedbaby overalls

After my first child was born, I came across so many great products and vendors through my google searches and twitter.  I fell in love with L'ovedbaby because the clothes are the basics items and the price worked for me.  The size range is newborn to 12 months in most of the items, so I decided to buy an outfit or two for my next child and I am so glad that I did.  The gl'oved-sleeve overalls with hat, I purchased is super cute and so comfortable for my baby.  I highly recommend http://www.lovedbaby.com/shop/cottonbasics.php because cotton is awesome and your child will look super cute.

Summer Flip Flops

Being a shopaholic, I love shopping but I also love great materials and products.  I recently came across Gisele Bundchen iPANEMA flip flops and I decided to buy a pair because I needed new pair.  I received them yesterday and I fell in love immediately because the foot bed are super comfortable and the color works with everything plus, they have the largest selection of Flip Flops, Sandals and Wedges.  I know that I will be wearing them all the time this summer...I highly recommend iPANEMA by Gisele Bundchen http://www.ipanemaflipflops.co.uk/

Pee-pee Teepee

During my first pregnancy, I came across that I thought was the cutest and funny baby product for baby boys.  I thought if I have a boy, I would definitely get Pee-pee Teepee because I remember hearing how baby boy tend to pee on the parent when you are changing them.  My sister told me a few stories about my nephews that convinced me that this product is a must...When I found out that I was having a boy during my second pregnancy Pee-pee Teepee was on my list because besides being a must-have item, they are super cute because the prints are adorable.

I discovered Glow Baby a year after my daughter was born but I knew that I would get Baby's first journal for my next baby.  When I found out that I was pregnant again and started a list of must have's...Glow Baby Baby's first journal was the first item on my list, which comes in three colors pink, green and blue...I have been using the journal for the last two weeks and I must say it is the best...it is sooo easy to use..I feel very organized, as well especially with a newborn..I highly recommend Glow Baby not only for Baby's first journal but family calendar and medicine notepad are equally awesome...

Happy Mother's Day!!!!

I received the following poem on my first mothers' day and now I am a mom of two....

I received this poem last year...my first mother's day

Prettiest Mom

Before I was a Mom , I never tripped over toys or forgot words to a lullaby. I didn't worry whether or not my plants were poisonous.. I never thought about immunizations. Before I was a Mom - I had never been puked on. Pooped on. Chewed on. Peed on. I had complete control of my mind and my thoughts. I slept all night. Before I was a Mom, I never held down a screaming child so doctors could do tests. Or give shots . I never looked into teary eyes and cried. I never got gloriously happy over a simple grin. I never sat up late hours at night watching a baby sleep. Before I was a Mom, I never held a sleeping baby just because I didn't want to put her down. I never felt my heart break into a million pieces when I couldn't stop the hurt. I never knew that something so small could affect my life so much. I never knew that I could love someone so much. I never knew I would love being a Mom. Before I was a Mom - I didn't know the feeling of having my heart outside my body. I didn't know how special it could feel to feed a hungry baby. I didn't know that bond between a mother and her child. I didn't know that something so small could make me feel so important and happy. Before I was a Mom - I had never gotten up in the middle of the night every 10 minutes to make sure all was okay. I had never known the warmth, the joy, the love, the heartache, the wonderment or the satisfaction of being a Mom. I didn't know I was capable of feeling so much, before I was a Mom.

Second Time Mom!!!!

You may or may not know by now that....I gave birth to my second child on Sunday May 1st and I have been blessed with my adorable son Alejandro Jose...So now I am a mom of two and it is awesome..Although, I was not expecting to have him two weeks before my due date.  I am very glad that he is doing well...I am also excited to see him in all the clothes I purchase for him....Plus, This mother's day will be extra special for me with my two adorable kids...
