2 Months Old!

I have tons of catching up to do with posts from February and March, but I didn't want to miss this important day!
Happy 2 month-day, sweet Adela! It seems like you have been part of our family forever!

Happy Valentine's Day!

We had a fun, sugar-filled afternoon! We made (and ate) some cookies and the girls got lots of fun gifts! Elsa was most excited about her new owl purse from Grandma & Grandpa Colin! Adela, of course, loved her new sweater and flowery tights! Elsa got some cute clothes too...but that's not as fun as a new purse, right?

The finished product! I was quite impressed with our work...and they were delicious!
Opening presents...Elsa is showing Adela her new sweater. Can't you tell Adela loves it?
New purse!

We even got some family photos!
Happy Heart Day!

Adela's Homecoming Party!

Elsa and Grandma prepared a party for Adela's homecoming...complete with cookies and balloons! We were all very excited to be home!

Adela came home with gifts for her big sister...
Playdoh Sweet Shoppe!
Playdoh Popsicles...yummy!
Adela slept through most of the fun...however I imagine there will be lots of time for these two sisters to make Playdoh popsicles together...

Adela also asked Grandma to bring some things for Elsa's baby, Emma. Emma seemed to like the pacifier the best...or was it Elsa?

Welcome Baby Girl!

Adela Jane joined our family on January 28, 2013 at 2:45am here in Granada. Her entrance into the world was fast and furious - Gonzalo and I made it to the hospital just a few hours before she was born. She weighed 2.95 kg (6 lbs, 8 ozs) and was 51 cm long (20 inches). We are all so excited to have another sweet girl in our family. Elsa is SO excited to be a big sister to a little sister...I think she knew all along it was going to be a girl!
