With Msgr. MaloneThe Godparents

On Sunday, January 20th, we had Ana Bella's baptism. It was such a special and beautiful ceremony. She was wonderful and only fussed a little when they laid her back to pour the water on her head. She had so many friends and family come and celebrate and made it that much more special! Afterwards we went to Alejandro's sister's house. It was so great to have everyone together to celebrate this special occasion.

Four Month Well Baby Visit

Last Thursday Ana Bella had her four month well baby visit/check-up. The doctor said that she looks great! She is 15 lbs 5 1/2 oz and is 24 1/2 in long. She did a wonderful job and only got mad because she was hungry!

The Car Seat

For some reason we seem to take a lot of pictures of Ana Bella in her car seat before we go any where! This kinda gives us an idea of how much she really has grown!

Another hard day for Ana Bella

Ana Bella loves to put her hands and anything she can grab on to in her mouth!
Just hanging out

Ana Bella had been playing so hard in the Jumperoo and I noticed she had gotten quite and then I looked over and she had just laid her head down and fell asleep. So sweet!!

Ana Bella has a Boyfriend

Our friends Andrea and Steven came by to visit with their little boy Jaxon. After checking each other out for a while we put the two together. At first Jaxon wasn't that interested in Ana Bella, but then he started rubbing her feet! It was the cutest and funniest thing!

Happy New Year

As our tradition we rang in the New Year with Alejandro's family. All of his aunts, uncles, cousins and immediate family were there. We had a great time!

We are really excited about 2008. It should be a year full of "firsts" for Ana Bella and are looking forward to each and every one!!
