7 Months and counting...

It's me...Just hanging out at home!















Can you believe it, they took a picture of me, while I was sleeping...I know it's looks
uncomfortable, but it's really a good sleeping position, you should try it some time.

For Cinco De Mayo, we decided to celebrate and go to Disneyland and California Adventure. I know we're not Mexican, but my dad thinks he is. It must be all the tacos he and mom eats. Anyway, I just go along with it. Here is me and dad on the merry go round at California Adventure. It's ok, dad, you can let me go, I'm a big boy now...
Mom said to make as many faces as I could, so here it is.

MOM'S BDAY IN OXNARD

Dad decided to surprise mom for her birthday. Dad took us to the Embassy Suites in Oxnard, that's where mom took dad for his birthday, a year and a half ago. The cool part was that the hotel, had it's own private beach, so here we are...I really like the beach, I can't wait until mom and dad let me jump in.

By the way, if you didn't know I'm taking swimming lessons. It's me and daddy time every monday from 10:30-11:30am. So far, I've learned to splash my hands, kick my feet and get dunked under water. My favorite part is when the teacher tells that we can have free time...that's when I can get to play with the toys in the water.

Yup, you guessed it, my first trip to the L.A. Zoo. It was a lot of fun, I was able to see a bunch of animals, I had never seen before like pink flamingos, zebras and even chimpanzees. This one in the picture was actually playing with me. He was actually knocking on the glass to get my attention. And then started to play with me, by jumping up and down. It must have been my good looks that attracted him to me. Dad was joking with me and said it was because I had a strange resemblance to the chimpanzee.

Here are some pictures from church with Uncle Alejo, my friends Natalie, Skylar, Juliana, her mom, Auntie Kendra and Auntie Myriam. Uncle Alejo it looks like we're the minority in these pictures...where are all the guys?

This is one of the many people who spoil me in my life, my grandma,

"Nanay".

6 Months Old: Friends, Mexico & Easter

This is a picture of Mercy at her birthday party. She's cool, she can wear a nice dress and still play in the dirt. A lot of my friends were there, Kaylee, Skylar, Caleb, Kristiana and Belli.

MEXICO MISSION TRIP


As some of you may know, I took my first Mission Trip to Mexico on March 14-16. Dad leads most of our church mission trips, so it was cool to see him serve other peole, but most of all try to speak his "Spanish". As you can see the picture below, I completely fit in. For my first time on a mission trip I had a blast, can't wait to go back again.


There were about 45 people who attended the mission trip. For such a short time, there was so much that we did. On Friday, Mom and I went to an outreach for the elderly, they did manicures for the older ladies. On Saturday, we went to a facility for special needs kids. It was real cool because God used me to minister to the kids there by just laughing and smiling. It's kinda funny, because we think we have a lot to offer them, but it's really them who have a lot to offer us. I thank God that He gave us this chance to see Him work in all of our lives.

Uncle Johnny, why are playing with my dirty diaper?

HAPPY EASTER SUNDAY!
He is risen...He is risen indeed!

It was sometime before 6am on Sunday, March 23, and mom and I were to driving to the Home Depot Center Tennis Stadium. You might ask, why we were going there. Well, our church was celebrating Easter, which is the resurrection of Jesus. You know, the biggest event for us as Christians, simply the fact that Jesus rose from the dead, after being crucified and taking on the sins of the world upon himself, He was victorious over death. Wow, I guess you do learn alot from Sunday School.

It was my first Easter so I was pretty excited. There were a lot of people there, for the most part I was asleep, but I heard from my mom and dad that It was so cool to see many people receive Jesus into their heart that morning. Also the worship team and choir sang one of my favorite songs, "Mighty to Save", I just can't wait until I can sing, so you better believe that will be one of the first songs that I learn. Here are some pictures right after the Sunrise service.

Later on that morning, we had Easter Sunday services at the church. Mom had me put on a tie, since Dad was wearing a suit. Please excuse a couple of the compromising pictures with Juliana and I, our parents made us pose like that. We have not intention of furthering a relationship after the photo shoot, so Uncle Eddie, you don't have anything to worry about.

"Uncle Randy, are you trying to practice your Bible Study on me? I'm sure it will be all good."

In the afternoon, we celebrated "Tatay's" (Grandpa's) Birthday. "Man, I can't wait to eat cake"
