Date with Elijah

My life has been insanely busy, though looking at my blog there is nothing here to show for it. Awhile back I got to spend so much time with my Godson. Morning rides to work holding his hand, and coming home to play with him were my favorite parts of the day. He's getting so big fast and his dance moves keep getting better and better.

Did I mention his faces are THEE best!

I also got to spend tons of time with Mama Javee. I love her soo much.

And beautiful Auntie Lily!

After lunch we took a stroll and Elijah was soo elated to find fountains to play in.


And of course Elijah just had to dance!

Mama and Elijah were not the only ones who got wet.. hehe.

It was such a good day, it was hard to part ways with the awesome fountains, but Elijah had his fill we headed home.

Later that day took a little Thrift Store visit to a shop my best friend found, and knew I'd love.

And ... it was adorable.

I loved everything about it and the decor was just gorg!

Happy to say, I got myself a awesome pair of diamond studs for $5, though we don't know if they are real or fake .. but either way they are lovely and I never take them off!

I love spending time with Elijah and my girlfriends. PTL for great company.

Dancing with Elijah

I love my godson to pieces! Me and him played almost every day last week and every night danced our butts off! He's the one who held my hand on the way to my first day of my internship, and he's the one I got to celebrate with after my awesome week was over. Ok so Mama Jv and Auntie Lily were even more amazing for taking care of me all week {they even packing me lunches}, so thank you thank you thank you again girls! You are the best!

Fun for the mamas & papa too!

Our day at the Carnival was great fun for not only the little kiddies, but for their parents too. Here's a blog just for pregos and one of the sweetest mama & papa duos we know.

One sweet love.

I was far to young to appreciate nor remember the kind of love and relationship my mom and dad had because I was only 4, but seeing this mama and papa team every week brings me pure joy because seeing their love feels like I'm always seeing a familiar kind of bond, the kind I imagine my parents had in their youth, marriage and love. I pray that the Lord continues to bless this family so richly because I see alot of my family in theirs if that makes any sense, and I hope and pray for nothing but the very best for them. I love the Floreliz family sooo mucho.

They are also super cool all around. They get it from their papa, he has the rock star tattoos to show for it. LOL. {Before being a family man, Kuya Mark was a man at sea ... where tattoos were the perfect accesory for his profession }.

Now his perfect accesories are his wife and kiddies.



This family is too awesome.

The pregos mama and Little Miss Mariah
were a duo too cute for their own good.

Number Dos is on her way, about to make little

Mariah a big sister, and Noimie a proud mama of 2.

Don't you think Noimie is just one hot mama? I think so.

This mama is due any day now, and I'm sure mama Noimie is ready to meet her newest baby love. She's endure so much to get here and I want nothing but happiness and joy for her, from here on out.

Kisses from big sis.

And as expected, little Mariah is just as excited to meet her new baby sister. Praise the Lord for family, and for mamas and papas who rock.

Day at the Carnival

Soo much has gone down in a week's time, More parties, and BBQ's and memories it will be awhile till I get caught up in sharing about all of the memories, but here's a recollection of last week's amazing Monday. Hope you all enjoyed your 4th of July weekend and happy Monday to you!!!!

The best way to start the week is to go to the carnival.

Monday morning came around, and I worked on orders as usual. Then a knock at the door came a little bit after lunch. It was one of our favorite families, ready to have an adventure of a monday.

From a distance you could see the ferris wheel,

.. and the pretty lights

Then we finally entered.

For the day we had Gabby, Tim-Tim and little Ms. Mariah {+ pregos} to have fun and run around with. It was quite a fun and silly day.

We watched rides go up and down.

And met giants.

And even touched the sky. Well, almost.

We rode lots of rides ...

We rode them more than once.

Sister dearest took a ride on the ferris wheel with fearless and ever sooo adorable Mariah.

As I took a ride with the not so fearless "kuya" Tim-tim.

The higher we got, the harder Tim-Tim squeezed my hand. But even at the top of the big ole wheel we were both all smiles!!! I love this boy.

Twas a lovely day to just hang with the people who make me smile.

Why so serious sister?

Kidding!

After a great time riding rides, it was time to eat.

Funnel cake, and cotton candy ... and deep fried oreos.

Of course you can't go out a drink while snacking on sweets so we all shared the greatest cup of homemade lemonade ever!!! No lie. They loved it as much as I did.

After a plethora of sugary goods the kids were unstoppable. hehe

Mama pregos over there had to do a little yelling

to get Mariah to calm down a little. LOL.

To much sugar could not be good for a bunch of kiddies, but totally appropriate for a day at the Carnival. We wore them down with a quick visit to the playground on the way back to the car so that the parents would have sleeping children all night. What a day with the kiddies, possibly my favorite day at any carnival thus far. I love summer days like this. PTL for carnivals.
