just a quickie

I hear the littles stirring upstairs so this will be a quick one ... correction I now have a blonde haired blue eyed smiley little assistant who is pretty occupied with her "mama hummms" at the moment :)

ok phew! nursies done, and a devastating diaper created and taken care of ... onto some cheerios while thing one happily snores away. (just to make ya'll apreciate the behind the scenes work that go on en la casa de Torres lol)

This is for Z and Whit since I've maxed out my monthly flickr allowance ... shocker.



CJ got her hands on a sippy she can actually function, although once realizing it was NOT full of mama milk she had very little interest in it and in fact hasn't given it a second look.


... yes Mon I am prepared for the flash lecture but alas it was a moment that needed capturing as much as my kitchen lighting needs a makeover

baby girl had a blast with some ravioli ... too cute not to share




EARTH DAY 2010! We celebrated with a trip to Bear Mountain Zoo on Saturday and then FINALLY got our little seedlings in the ground

...just to help you understand the adventure that is photographing two children





..apparently multiple picture upload submits them backwards but considering there are cheerio and cornbread muffin showers passing through my kitchen I will pass on the editing time








yes Aiden has been known to rock a mean Beco lately, ever since developing a love of the piggy back ... ignore the intense squished bewbie effect




I plan on making a cloth diapering post later in the day (in honor of Earth Day) so someone hold me accountable!

April Showers

April has brought us many busy and sunny days and our sweet little girls 11 month birthday!




We observed Autism Awareness Day on the 2nd supporting a dear friend's little boy


Easter brought us many sweet memories. Aiden proudly recited to all that would hear "He is not here for He is Risen!" and certainly ate his fair share of chocolate to celebrate the occasion.



We enjoyed a trip to the Central Park zoo



Some down time hanging in the backyard was certainly enjoyed and even more so during the brief summery spell we had

as well as some good ol park time ...





I find it so hard to believe that our sweet baby is turning one next month! She can now say "mama up" "mama hummm" for nursies "baba" for no no, complete with finger and hand shake for emphasis. She has discovered the stairs and I find myself baby proofing for the first time ever! Where as with Aiden a few gentle "nono"s directed towards the stairs quickly kept him from the dangerous pursuit ... CJ on the other hand cheerily continues her climb signing and saying no no. Seems as if I have my work cut out for me...
