I am trying to keep up with this boys…They are quite fun. They have their moments, i have my moments that’s for sure, but for the most time, we have great times together. Julian’s uncle came to spend this Sunday with them…of course most of the soccer fans are all into world cup, so a break from all the fun games is family with us.

So my little man turned 1 on Tuesday June 8th and i can’t tell you how happy i am. He is growing so fast, i mean ..don’t all kids! I look at him and ask myself , where did all that 365 days gone?

I love it when he calls me mama. I bet his dada will agree too, given that little stinker already figured out there is more action around daddy especially at 5 am than mama. He wakes up and yells for his daddy.. he goes daaa… then daaaada, then didididididiii! Of course poor daddy can’t ignore him any longer and all i can say, thank God off you go to your daddy, while you are at it, make sure you bug him for some yummy breakfast, too.

My husband is really good with the boys and they just adore him.  So Eli got so much attention this week and including a trip to get some 1 yr photos taken, and we squeezed in big brother’s 4 yr old photos too.

We had a blast today. More pics to post.

I know it has been a while since i last posted. Hey i had to catch up with all my fav shows and finally watching the finales, lol…Plus studying for my GMAT , i need to go back to school.

So the boys are doing great. I can’t believe Eli is going to turn 1 next week, yes it flew by. I am officially getting Ooold! Eli has been such a good eater, so far we have not found any food that he doesn’t like, but as for his big brother, 4 year old Julian..it s a completely different story. He has succeeded to frustrate his teachers at pre-k since he is not eating at school, and of course his mama as well. How can i love cooking this much, but have a child that wants nothing to do with most of my cooking?

I keep on hearing how good he will eat when he grows up, how he will ravish every meal that i put in front of him, how he will surprise us…mmmmh Julian? I will believe it when i see it, plus hey i want him to eat now, or begin like today.

So dealing with picky eaters is not fun, it is not easy, but hey they still gotta eat and they still have to get all their nutrients in. What am i doing? V8 fusion veggies& fruit  juices, chicken nuggets, baked fries, raw baby carrots, sneaking in other veggies, whole grain cereals, and definitely vitamins, precisely the flinstones gummy bears …the rest,  just  taking it one day at a time.

When it comes to Eli, we take away food from him. Yeah, i guess no two kids can be alike in everything, plus what fun would it be without any little challenges here and there. I am still breastfeeding him, and hope to keep up for another year.

Eli has 4 little teeth, and is trying to walk. This week he took 3 steps, like up and running, so we are excited to watch him. It is just so amazing watching the firsts. The first smile, the first tooth, the first heartfelt – belly laugh, the first bye bye wave, the first slobby kiss, the first ‘mama, ‘dada’….uh mmmmh .. The firsts are always the best!

I look at my boys and as every day passes by , i know in my heart, i have never felt happier. They challenge me to be better, want more, and push myself to achieve all my set goals. I want them to look at me one day and say, i learned this from my mom and whatever it is, i hope it is something good or will enrich someone else out there.

Love you all…

I will post more often, hey wish me luck as i get ready for graduate school. This mama will be busy, that’s for sure.
