10 years ago....

The first time we ever meet was at the end of 1997, when i went to his university to get some lab experience in plant tissue culture, by then i was in my last university year and he was the lab teacher....then we meet again in the middle of 1998, after he came back from Atlanta; we date for a while but he had to come back to his studies in the EEUU.....

He came back at the end of 1998 and we started dating again....
In november of 1999 we got engaged...here we are with some friends....

and in march 3rd 2000 we got married....

a couple of weeks after, we celebrated my 25th birthday as a married couple...

few months after we did travel to study in Ireland...it was very hard at the beggining, but the beauty of the country and the friendship of our lads really help us to feel like home, day by day....here we are in Glendalough, the glacial valley......

Traveling around ireland, here at the north-west, in Donegal...

here in Northern Ireland (Causeway) the north coast, our friends Connie and Stephen showed to us this incredible rock formations!

here at Bushmills, trying many different kinds of whisky....they got us drunk to choose the best of them!...and give us a certificate!

At the weats coast in Connemara....it was reeeaaally sunny, but the water was so cold, it really hurt my bones!

In 2002 we travel to Paris, it was in november, kind of sad weather, not as rommantic as i expected, but the museums, the churchs, the palace, etc, were really amazing!
My graduation was in summer 2003, i really missed my parents....

In 2003 we visit York in UK, we went to a conference and end up traveling around with some brand new conference friends! they were really really great people!

Same year we traveled to London to celebrate Armando's 30th birthday!

In 2004 we visit Czech Republic, Prague is such a beautyfull city....we enjoy it with our best couple friends erika and michael!...we heared that the city wasnt bombarded during WW because of its beauty...

Our religious wedding was in Peru, march 11th 2005, Emily was in her way!...We moved to Lincoln, Nebraska in the states, i was at home during my pregnancy, and i just ate and slept all the time...

At 7 moths pregnant the baby's room was ready!, we didnt know if we were expecting a boy or a girl, but because of my mom i really believe i was going to have a boy!...i got few blue outfits and just one was pink....thanks to our friends Nivea and Marco, we were not lost in the city or in the parenhood journey because they were expecting too...

On september 14th 2005, my beautyfull daughter was born by an unexpected c-sec! thanks mamita came to help us out a couple of days later....Emily weighted more than 8 pounds, my OB told me it was good to had an emergency c-sec!

by Emily's second month!

Emily's first year!, she didnt talk much, but she was walking since her 10th month!....Larissa and Salvador help us in everyway with their experience as parents, and as incredible friends ever since we meet...

i cant believe Emily was so little once.....sometimes i really miss her like that, then i see her again and i realize she is still my little baby!, she maybe four now, but yes! it is just four tiny years!....

Autum 2007, Emily is 2 years now!

Christmas 2007 family picture!

Christmas 2008 family picture! mommy is 6 months pregnant!....we meet our lovely new neighborgs Lori and Kyle, they have a cute little boy Caileb and are expecting too!.....our due dates are 2 weeks apart!
Winter 2008, Emily is 3 years old and mommy is 8 months pregnant!

March 19th 2009, my precious little Sophie was born (by c-sec).....mamita came 2 months before to helps us out!.....when emily was born i had to much anesthesia, i was very sleepy, but with Sophie i was so awake that for me it felt like a had a natural birth! (without the pain)....i cried so much when i heared her crying...

My sweet Emily meet her little sister Sophie, this time we knew we were expecting a girl.....she was close to 8 pounds, so i was happy with my c-sec again!

Sophie is now 11 months, she is real trouble, and she doesnt walk yet!, she is a real talker, she ask for water, says woof when she hears a dog, she says up, night, she calls her sister Emiii, and of course her favorite, mommy!!!

Emily has been a real helper with her sister and they are best friends!, they play and fight, they give kisses to each other and pull their hairs too....i love to watch them playing, not much when i take sophie from the back of her sister but it is still funny!

This 10 years have been amazing, with ups and downs, but mostly for the great gift of my girls....for my family and friends....Thank you God for all your gifts and help me to be a good mommy and wife every day.....Amen

  1. What a beautyful story!

    It is great to see many blessings God has given to both of you. I am sure there are many others on the way. Just trust Him and hold His hands.

    Big hug from the three of us.
