RIP Angelina San Mateo - September 30, 2010

Four years ago today we lost our baby girl.  I carried her for four-and-a-half months, and in that time, Rob and I fell in love with her.  We didn't know she was a girl until I delivered her.

After 4 years, we still have hole in our lives and we miss her very much.  Angelina holds a very special place in our hearts and she will never be forgotten. 

Rest in peace baby girl, we love you and miss you very much.  We look forward to joining you in heaven... until then we will remember you and will continue to pray for you, always.

Family Time - At Last!

From the moment we got home from our vacation (last month) my hubby has been very busy with his Navy Reserves induction/training.  Today, finally, was the first time we actually got time to spend as a family - whoo hooo!  Highlights of the day:

(1) Cuddling with our beautiful baby boy and sleeping in this morning.  (Thank you, child of ours, for just laying there quietly and figuring out it was a better idea to go back to sleep for a few more minutes, rather than poke Mama and Papa in the face over and over again!) 

(2) Getting some tasty treats at Starbucks and enjoying them together.

(3) Visiting Angelina, together as a family (it was our first time since July!)

(4) Delicious goodness and fun at Stephanie & Brett's house - where both Mama and Papa got to enjoy a whole meal, uninterrupted - yay! 

(5) A nice visit at Uncle Andy & Auntie Patty's house where RJ took a much needed nap while Mama chatted with Auntie and Daddy received some words of wisdom from Uncle (a retired Navy Chief) who also signed Daddy's "charge book". 

(6) Watching our son as he "read" us a story.... SO super cute!

Can't wait for this madness to be over... in just a couple more weeks induction will be over and the hubby will officially be promoted to Chief.  Whoo hooo!!!!!
