Happy Birthday Rosie

Little Rosie turned 2 just before Thanksgiving.  We had a little party for her while our family was in town as well.  She was pleased to have cake and open a few presents to celebrate.  Rosie is super tall and loves to do anything her older brother and sister are doing.  She still loves her binky, bottle and blanky (only when she is sleeping though!).  She is starting to talk more and loves to paint her nails, wear lipstick, make up and try on many and most accessories as well.
She is a joy to have around and thinks she is pretty funny and cute at dinner time.  She is a busy body and tries to keep up with her older siblings.  Yet loves to read books, ride her tricycle and scooter and be involved in anything and everything.  Happy Birthday Rosie Vela!

And a few more photos of the birthday girl from the past couple of weeks, enjoy!

Baby R Turns 1

Little R turned one this weekend.  This year has flown by.  Last year, we were thinking she would come right on Thanksgiving Day, but she arrived a few days earlier.  We had a simple quiet meal at home and it was perfect.

Rosie at 5 1/2 Months

Baby R is almost 6 months old!  She is smiling all the time and she makes all sorts of noises.  She is just starting to sit up on her own and is slowly getting more stable.  She loves to roll all over the floor and put anything and everything in her mouth.  She does not have any teeth yet but probably will soon.  We pulled out the dusty exersaucer and high chair from the shed earlier this week too and we started buying baby food for her as well.  She loves all the attention she gets from her older siblings and everyone else.  She is getting a little chunky and loves to eat!  She has a little bit of hair that is growing in and her eyes are blue as can be.  Overall, she is a happy baby and we love having her in our family.  The days are flying by and she grows so fast.

Girls

Baby R really is a good baby.  She is so happy and loves to smile, and loves all the attention she gets from her older siblings.  Our friends gave the two girls matching pink dresses and when they put them on they think they own the world, ha!  They sure are cute.

St. Patrick's Day 2015

Celebrating all the green with Baby R this St. Patrick's Day, she loved it, obviously.

Baby Rosie

I can't believe how fast baby R is growing up.  She is holding her head up so good and rolls over occasionally from her tummy to her back.  She loves to smile and make baby noises and she gets so much attention from her older siblings.  These pictures just crack me up, especially the ones where her eyes are closed.  We love baby Rosie!

Baby Blessing for Rosie

Last weekend we had some of our family in town for a long weekend to celebrate the blessing of baby Rosie at our church.  My parents were in town, my little sister and her hubby flew up and so did my brother Derek.  Then, my in-laws and brother in law Tommy were here too.  We had a great time exploring around Tacoma and Seattle and celebrating baby R.
She wore the same little dress that the wifey wore when she was blessed many years ago.  The blessing went well and we had  some friends there as well to help us celebrate.  Here's to baby Rosie who is already 3 months old!

Rosie at 2.5 Months

This little one is already 2.5 months old.  She is sweet and gets lots of attention from her siblings.  Here she is all dressed up for church last Sunday.  

2 Months Old

Baby Rosie is already two months old.  The days seem to be slipping by so fast.  She still loves to have her tongue out of her mouth and she wants to look around and observe everyone and everything around her.  She gets a lot of hugs and kisses from her older siblings and we love having her in our family.  Time is flying by.
