Today we are buying a bunch of candies for our Mexican Celebration "El Día del Niño" (Children's Day) Every April 30th México makes a HUGE celebration for our little ones! I remember when I was little we always had big school parties. Music, candies, cake, clowns, prizes, piñatas, good yummy foods, etc. I always had a blast! My hubby and I are planning an extra extra special day for our kiddos, I can't wait! Do you have a special day for your children in your country?

We helped Grammy pick up sticks in the yard so Pop Pop can mow. You know how a lot of men pride themselves on perfectly manicured lawns? My Daddy prides himself on being the last man in the neighborhood to start mowing in the Spring... I just love my family! Isn't my Mom the cutest thing?

We went out to take some pics of Kort and my 6 1/2 month belly. This is one of my favorite shots. The look on his face is priceless. So much joy there. We have all waited a really long time to have a baby on the way! This is the smile he wore when we told him he was going to be a big brother, and this is the smile he wore when he found out that we were having another boy, and this is still the smile he still wears every time he talks about "Baby Bob."
