Not a happy camper when it comes to strangers taking her picture.

Christmas time is near!

2008-12-10T19:56:00.000-08:00

What better time to update.

As you can see, Alexis is still not a big fan of Ol' St. Nick.

I forgot Alexis has a blog...

2008-12-10T15:57:00.000-08:00

Jesus, I need to update this blog. Got so use to putting pics of the kido up on myspace and facebook I've seem to neglect the blog. Well hopefully soon I will have new pics and info up. Gotta try to be a good dad and keep this going. She grows up too fast to keep up I swear.

Its Been Far Too Long Since Our Last Blog...wait does anybody blog that much anymore

Alexis's First Swim

2007-06-15T00:27:00.000-07:00

With these hot summer days in the triple digits, we felt it was a good time to get Alexis a little pool to play in. And as expected she loved it.

Happy Easter! (Last Sunday)

2007-04-10T20:23:00.000-07:00

This is actually the baby's second Easter. Enjoy her cuteness!

Alexis doesn't eat candy, so she got plenty of little easter toys.

Alexis Walking Video

2007-04-02T08:12:00.000-07:00

Here is some video footage of the baby learning how to walk.

Well Its been a while...

2007-03-31T19:05:00.000-07:00

Finally picked up a new camera and also upped the megapixels to 7.1 (Our old one being a 3 something). Anyways, while playing with the new camera, I took a few overdue pics of everyone's favorite precious darling! And maybe one of our wonderboy, Bishop. Enjoy!

This is pretty funny but, I use my cuteness to get my parents to do whatever I want!

Alexis and her pop.

Kissing the pop.

I can't help it, I'm really that adorable!

The two cuties! Baby and her Mommy!

Starting to Walk

2007-03-28T09:42:00.000-07:00

Last Sunday, Alexis started walking, well kinda, she took her first couple of steps on her own. And only shy of her deadline of 15 months. Anyways, she's coming along and trying to practice everyday. Sorry no pics, still need to buy a new digital camera. I'll see if I can upload some video soon.

Alexis' 1st Birthday Party...better late than never...

2007-02-05T15:44:00.000-08:00

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEXIS!!!

Alexis had her 1st birthday party January 20, 2007 at Jaycee's Community Center in Oxon Hill, MD. It was actually a pretty big bash considering the party went from 4-9:30 and there were about 100 guest there. We had alot of food there that Mamang and Auntie Aileen prepared. For example...

(1/2 of the room-there were sooooo many people there)

(what was left of the lechon)

1 whole lechon (roast pig)
lechon sauce*
12lbs of sliced roast hanger steak*
30 cups of rice*
pancit malabon*
pancit canton/bihon mixed*
chicken and hotdogs* (chicken, hotdogs, sweet peppers, potatoes in a tomato based sauce)
2 kinds of mixed veggies
300 halves of lumpia*
100 veggie eggrolls
spaghetti in meat sauce*
macaroni and cheese* (modified america’s test kitchen recipe and freakin awesome. a kid even said it was the best macaroni he had ever had)
two bags of rolls from Sam’s
pizza rolls
pigs in a blanket

chocolate fountain filled with 5lbs of Ghiradelli double chocolate
strawberries, pineapple, marshmallows, poundcake, bananas
¾ sheet double layer strawberry shortcake from Desserts by Gerard
4 leche flan* (another 4 not eaten)
puto
sapin sapin
kalamay
cassava
soda
water
beer

(thanks Aileen)

Of course, by the time me and Auntie Aileen sat down to eat everything was gone!!! Everything was pretty much gone a good half hour after serving...but everyone seemed to enjoy the food!
Alexis was shy of course, because she really didn't know anyone, but began to warm up to some. Did I mention there was a clown by the name of Teddy and a Pinata full of candy!!!
(Alexis, Auntie Aileen and Teddy the Clown)

Happy 1st Birthday!!

2007-01-17T21:07:00.000-08:00

Alexis is finally 1 years old! We celebrated in Maryland with Mommy, Daddy, Auntie Aileen, Mamang and Papang. We ate dinner at Grand Yums Chinese Buffet and ate delicious cake when we got home. In three more days we will have a great big celebration with lots of friends and family...Happy Birthday Baby!!!

Alexis' First Christmas!

2006-12-09T23:41:00.000-08:00

Our beautiful sweet baby cries with her first time on Santa's lap!

Christmas is almost here!!!

2006-11-26T19:57:00.000-08:00

Black Friday came and went! We stood in line to get into Toys R Us at 5:00 in the morning. The line was so long it turned 2 corners!!! We are crazy, but we got some cool things for Great prices!! Here are just some of the things we purchased...

We also got some cool bath toys, Little People Play set and a little doggie that barks when it walks!!! I think Alexis is going to have a great 1st Christmas

Happy Halloween Everyone!!

2006-11-01T07:41:00.000-08:00

Happy Halloween everyone!! This was Alexis' First Halloween. She got dressed up as a fairy princess (although you really can not see the wings-they were there...lol...). We didn't go trick or treat this year-I figured she is to young to eat candy, so we just had a nice night at home giving out lots of good candy and watching Slither.

I'm a Runny Nose Kid!

2006-10-27T18:30:00.000-07:00

My poor baby is sick! It seems that the babes has a cold. I dont know how this happened!! One day she is feeling fine the next she is all congested with a runny nose and coughing. I guess it is the change in the weather here-one day it is 98 degrees and the next day it is 68 go figure-the price we pay for living in the desert i guess. The good thing is that it is only her nose and a small cough-no fever, she still eating fine, etc, etc. So every 4 hours she gets a triamidic strip (the best thing a medicine company could ever come up with), which she absolutely loves and then suck her little boogers out with the bulb which she absolutely hates!!!

9 month and counting!!

2006-10-23T19:52:00.000-07:00

Alexis is finally 9 months-can you imagine- three more months until she is 1 years old!!

8 MONTHS!!

2006-09-19T00:27:00.000-07:00

The babes in now 8 months old!!!??!! I can't believe she is almost a year old...this is crazy! She is getting so big now it seems like yesterday she was just born and weighing in at 4lbs 8oz and length well lets just say she fit snug from my elbow to hand....now this cutie weighs over 16 lbs and is about 27 inches in length-shes kinda tall...Lets see what milestone has she reached-she rolls over with no problem, she uses her "pincher", loves to eat her cookies, is now eating bits and of bananas and peas not to mention her stage 2 going on stage 3 baby food, drinks juice out of a cup ( and will not let you hold it either), she is getting 4 teeth in, has her ears pierced, she loves Blue's Clues (she prefers Steve over Joe-but I don't blame her there) she walks backwards all over the house in her walker, she is now starting to walk forward, but refuses to crawl....this child will not crawl-she just doesn't want to-she really just wants to walk!!!

Bath time in the kitchen sink!

Congrats Daddy!!!!

2006-09-17T00:33:00.000-07:00

Congratulations to Edward for winning a real Emmy!!!! (no its not chocolate in gold wrapping-it is an actual Emmy-weighing in at about 15 lbs!!!)

Oh I know, I haven't updated baby's pics in a while!

2006-09-07T08:40:00.000-07:00

Here is some pics I took of the baby a couple weeks ago. Enjoy the cuteness!

The Babe is Back!!!

2006-06-27T09:35:00.000-07:00

I know its been awhile since I posted some pics of the babe-so here ya go. She is now about 5 1/2 months and we just bought her a walker that she seems to enjoy. She is actually pretty much rolling over now she just has a hard time getting past the one arm-but she is very close-after that she will talking off crawing around the house. She grabs thing and shoves them in her mouth and she is chewing on everything. She is also eating some solid food, well baby food. Most babies love the fruits-but not my weirdo-she loves her veggies!!!

Happy 4 Months!!!

2006-05-17T19:41:00.000-07:00

Today she finally turned 4 months. She is getting so big! I remember when she was born and weighing in at 4 1/2 pounds now her weight is right on (of course if you look closely to her arms it looks like she wears rubber bands around her wrist but hey- its cute!!)

With permission from Dr. Misch, Alexis began Applesauce today. She seemed to enjoy it, however I'm not sure if she really knew what it was-but she kept opeing her mouth for it so it must have been good!!

Congrats Daddy!!

2006-05-04T10:08:00.000-07:00

Congrats to Alexis' daddy Edward (and some other folks at Animax Interactive), for winning an Emmy for the Animated Shorts "Off-Mikes" brought to you by ESPN. This just proves that Edward is one of the best artist of all times!!! Congrats again Boogs!! (Wow I am actually married to an Emmy Award Winner....Cool!!)

Yummy!!!

2006-04-21T12:47:00.000-07:00

On April 17, 2006 Alexis turned 3 months. Her doctor said that she could start eating fruits at 4 months so I figured she needs to start practicing now with some rice cereal. She is doing very well considering she is not used to eating with a spoon, sometimes she gets frustrated and starts crying but it will take some time. Practice makes perfect!!

She looks so lost in her highchair!!!

(thank you for the cutest bib in the world, Auntie Aileen!)

Don't forget about Easter!!!

Bishop and Alexis' easter baskets!!!

12 Weeks!!!

Cutie!!!

I See Teddy Bears!

2006-03-24T13:31:00.000-08:00

Alexis is very fascinated with her teddy bear mobile!! She is so pleasant now that she sleeps through the night (Thanks Dr. Misch!!!) because she eats some cereal in her milk before she goes to sleep. These pics are her after 7 hours of straight sleep...you may even notice her bedhead!!! There were so many cute pics of her, I couldn't decide which ones to post-so I posted them all!!!

Fun Times At The Doctors!

2006-03-21T10:37:00.000-08:00

We went to Alexis' 2 month check up today. She was so pleasant- smiling and talking away during our 45 minute wait-the nurse weighed her and measured her ( 9lbs even and 21 inches long ) and she was happy as a little clam until of course the doctors student assistant came in to examine her. She started screaming. Maybe she was just tired of laying on the "paper bed" naked for almost an hour, or maybe since she was a student she has no idea what she was doing...who knows, she is a nice woman but new at what she does. Alexis was upset but that was nothing compared to when she got two shots in her legs...poor baby screamed her little head off and got beat red in the face. Needless to say she is fast asleep right now. Doctor said everything looked great and we can actually start feeding her cereal at night now...yippy I might be able to final get some sleep at night!!

Bouncing Away!!!

2006-03-19T22:16:00.000-08:00

Just a few more pics to demonstrate how big Alexis is getting. She is finally big enough to FIT in her seat as well as bounce it!! There is a vibration mode but she absolutely hates when it is on. She just sits there and bounces away while looking and listening to "a cat, a dog and a bear" play music with bright lights!

Happy 2 Months!!!

2006-03-17T23:39:00.000-08:00

Today Alexis is 2 months old...wow where did the time go???? She is getting so big so fast; she will be running around the house before we know it!! Happy 2 month birthday, Baby!!!

Getting So Big!!!

2006-03-12T12:28:00.000-08:00

Our little Alexis is getting so big so quick. She is 7 1/2 weeks and she is already 9lbs! That may not seem like alot to some people but in case you don't remember she was born at 4lbs 8oz (what a piggy!!). She is obviously eating good, trust me the child is constantly hungry! We have one of those "hands free carriers" for her and she finally fits in it! To tell you the truth she is starting to fit in everything we have; for example- the swing, bouncy seat, car seat, clothes etc. It's about time too!!

.

Damn the month Flew Bye!

2006-02-24T21:15:00.000-08:00

(Yawn!)

"Whatcha lookin' at Mister!"

"Well hello to you...and yes I am cute now aren't I!"

Well ALexis here is almost 6 weeks old now. Can you believe it? Anyways, here are some updated photos of the babe.

Rock-a-bye Baby

2006-02-08T22:21:00.000-08:00

We just got Alexis a swing and she absolutely loves it!!! She will stay awake, look around and reach for the toys on the tray for about 10 minutes and then off to dream land she goes. She looks so precious and peaceful doesn't she? (you would never believe that little angel screams bloody murder about every 2 hours on the hour...lol...)

Silly Bear!!!

2006-02-04T01:33:00.000-08:00

The other day I was taking pics of Alexis and I just so happened to catch this silly face that she tends to make alot.... Enjoy!!!

PS...she is not really crossed eyed...see just a Silly Bear!!!

Grandpa meet Alexis, Alexis meet Grandpa

2006-01-29T12:55:00.000-08:00

This weekend my father came in for a visit to meet his brand new grandaughter Alexis. He seems very excited as all grandpas do of course. I think he would like to really move close to us but that would require a new job and huge move from Maryland. Seems like the birth of the baby is bringing us more visitors all the time. Next month, Rachel's parents will be here and in March my sister.

Happy 1 Week Birthday, Alexis!!

2006-01-24T18:31:00.000-08:00

Happy 1 week birthday to our beautiful baby girl, Alexis!! 8 days ago we would have never imagined how happy we would have been. She is the best thing that has happened to us! So here's to one week of dirty diapers, feedings every 30 minutes, screaming bloody murder and to many, many more!!!!
-Rachel-

First Doctor's Appointment

2006-01-23T12:28:00.000-08:00

Today was Alexis' first appointment with her pediatrician. She was quiet the whole time in the waiting room until we brought her to the back where she wouldn't stop crying. But I think getting probed with the thermometer didn't help any either. Anyways, Dr. Misch gave her an A+ and a clean bill of health.

Edward

Homecoming!

2006-01-21T15:51:00.000-08:00

Look who's going home!

Finally after being in the hospital since Monday, baby Alexis was finally allowed to go home, Thursday night. Having a new baby is probably one of the most exciting things to happen in our lives. And adjusting to a new lifestyle of no sleep (especially for Rachel) and having to care for this new life is very gratifying at many levels. I hope I can only do the best job I can as her father. And give her the proper guidance she needs to be a great person.

-Edward
