My 2 month old and some summer FUN!





So Chera & I took the kids to the new water park in Miami. They had a blast and I think I am going to take them again before we go. The only trick to it, is to be there at 9:00, it was quite empty, then all hell broke loose when the school's summer camps arrived (way too many kids) and then Chera and I decided to leave since keeping up with 5 kids was insane (Christopher, Caitlyn, Ethan, Evan, and Gavin)







Here is my munshkin...he turned 2 months old yeaterday and weighing a whooping 12 lbs! He is smiling now and looking soooo much like Eddy. He is also nursing 100% better, perhaps because his mouth is bigger...lol. He is getting a lot of carrying time which is going to be tough when we home, but he did meet his great grandparents, cousins, and family! Here he is with his cousins Christopher, Caitlyn, Derek, and his brothers Ethan and Evan. Derek was surprised to finally see someone his age...

Welcome to Miami...



yes my friends, I am in Miami AGAIN! So I was home as my parents were packing (they were in NC for 6 days) and decided that why not come down since afterall I am on a mini-vacation (Maternity leave). So here I am in my old surroundings, the food, the palm trees, the loud atmosphere. Do I miss Fuquay? of course afterall that is my home, my quiet haven, and where I plan to raise my boys, but for a few days I will enjoy my heritage, the typical Cuban food and flair, pastries, and even the LOUD Cubans! Bebes, I miss you!

I almost forgot!



We had a HAIL storm...SCARY! In the end of May...how bizarre. I was in the kitchen after picking up the boys early from school, I was getting their dinner ready. As I look out the kitchen window I noticed small little particles landing on the grass, I looked up and the sky looked weird, almost like a tornado. It then started falling like torpidos, I thought the windows were going to shatter. The boys got scared when I yelled, "Get in the laundry room" then seconds later Eddy came down stairs saying the same thing. It was over in a few minutes, but it was scary as HELL!

Dylan's not so little friend...




this is Zaki, my neighbor Melissa's little boy. I took care of him today and he was a true delight. He is 7 weeks older than Dylan and just look at him...what a ham. Dylan looked like a little bug...lol, I wish you could of seen me feeding them (of course they were hungry at the same time) to my left, nursing Dylan to the right holding the bottle while Zaki sat on the bouncer...what a picture, what a scrapbook page!

My 3 boys!




so I never imagined being the mom of 3 boys! WOW...is life here in the Quintana household crazy or what??? Wake up at 5, bathe, feed Dylan before the other 2 wake-up, then bathe them, drive them to school and then it's just Dylan and I and somewhere along the day squeeze in the gym, pump, clean, cook, and rest! Forget scrapbooking, what is that??? My parents will be here on Thursday and I hope to get a day and scrap away!!!!!!! Wish me luck! Talk about luck, tomorrow I am watching Zaki, my neighbor Melissa's 4 month old little boy. I hope to God it's a good day, 2 babies 2 1/2 months apart...CRAZY! Here is a picture with my little guys! So we took the kids to Johnson Lake Pool and as ususal they had a great time, this time Isabella came along with her mom Ana and they too loved it! Here are a few pics of the kids...

He is finally filling in his clothes! Dylan is now wearing a size...0-3! WooHoo! It's all weight gain from here on! So the boys are doing well, yesterday was their first playdate with the kids in the community. Since they attend preschool, I took them late and they had a blast! Here are a few pics!
