More pics of our angel.....





I know that they are definitely not "Photos by Bull," but I've been playing around with my camera settings a little to take some pics of Celi in different shades. I'll keep trying to use different settings (and practicing) to try to get the best pics possible of her. She's still growing every day....getting a little fussier, but also sleeping a little longer at night (she's had a couple of 4-5 hour stretches). As you can see from the photos, she's becoming more and more alert. We're still waiting for her to see us and respond with a smile--I'll definitely post when that happens.

A lot has happened this week. First and foremost, Adri and Celi have developed a very close bond (as you can see) and as much as Daddy loves her, it doesn't compare to a mother's love and that unspoken connection. It seems like we've been going out with Celi more and more. Friday, we went out to get some pictures taken of Celi with a professional photographer. She graduated from Manny's school a few years ago and we liked her work on her website (see her red outfit below that she wore to her first modeling job). Last night, we went to the Spring Show at the high school and she actually did well through the whole event. Adri and Celi got to go to Mandie's baby shower today while Manny went to go hang out with Aaron and Evan. We would like to give our friends all of our love and let them know that we're there for them as they expecting their blessing here in the next month. Celi got to wear her new outfit that Drew, Denisse, and Livi sent from NJ (see her below in the strawberry outfit).

Tummy Time is OK, but......

Araceli is still doing well and getting bigger every day. We're still trying to strengthen her muscles by allowing her time on her stomach.


But she reallys has more fun and is happier when she is able to lie on her back!

HAPPY EASTER!!

We would like to wish everyone a very happy and blessed Easter Sunday! We were able to spend Easter with Momo and Popo. We took Celi to IKEA for her first Easter picture with the Easter bunny. It was very uneventful since she was asleep the entire time. Here are some pics from Araceli's first Easter.

Baby's First Easter

We went to church last night for Good Friday service and Araceli did wonderfully again! She even slept through our dinner on Casa Garcias afterwards. We're looking forward to taking her to the mall later on this weekend for her first picture with the Easter Bunny! Here are some pics of her and a couple of her outfit changes throughout the day. She's been having some issues with throwing up after eating and tends to get a little dirty. We've got plenty of outfits to change her into though.
