Alexia now says her first word!!! She has been saying dada and papa now for a couple of months, but if you tell her to say it she won't do it! The other morning I went in her room and she was looking to the floor saying "Uh-oh". I looked down and her pacifier was laying on the floor. It is so adorable! If you ask her to say Uh-oh she says it! She was nine months old yesterday! Wooooohooooo!

Ariana brought this home from school to give to us for Valentine's Day. It was so adorable! The box is a magnet!

Here are some more of the projects that Ariana brought home last week from school! The bottom heart we made for Papi while he was in D.C.

When we woke up this morning, Yusef told me to stay in bed. He came upstairs and told me to follow the Reese's peanut butter cup trail. It led downstairs to the kitchen table where there was a heart made of the candies, three red roses for me, a pink rose for Ariana and a yellow rose for Alexia, and a gift certificate! It was awesome! Last year he made us heart pancakes, but this year it was heart omelettes!

When Lisa was here back in December, I won a four pack of tickets to go see Go Diego Go Live from a radio station. The show was by Philadelphia on Friday night. Ariana had a blast! Alexia was having a great time also!

Alexia has been walking holding on to everything. When Yusef came home he got this walker out of our storage unit and she loves it!

Sorry I haven't updated the pictures, but Yusef had the camera while he was in D.C. for two weeks. The girls missed him so much! Here is a picture of them cuddling with him the day he came home!

We made this snowman and had a snowball fight this morning! It was so much fun!

Ariana woke us up this morning all excited that there was snow on the ground!

THE FIRST SNOWFALL!!! Last night it started snowing as we were driving home from some friend's house. We pulled over so Ariana could play in it!!!

Even Alexia had fun!

We went to The Children's Museum on Friday night with a friend! It was well worth $3.00!

Yesterday morning I went to get Alexia and she was standing up in her crib!

Alexia cut her first tooth this morning!

We all went to Shark park on Sunday afternoon. It is about 18 blocks from our house and Ariana and Alexia road in the jeep. It actually goes pretty fast, 5mph!

Alexia has been carrying this toy sax in her mouth. It is so funny because she crawls everywhere and keeps it in there the whole time!

Tio Gaby and the girls!

Yusef's sister, Naima, brother, Gaby and his girlfriend Carrie came up for New Years. We are going to try to make it a tradition to be together every new years!

Yusef's brother and sister came for Christmas and we all went out! We had our neighbor's grandaughter babysit the girls! It was good to get out, but we missed them!!!
