He has a name

Our son has a name.
We could change our minds, but we are very sure he will be named after this man:

Lincoln will be his first name.
His middle name will be a family name.
Ready Martha?
Augustus

LINCOLN AUGUSTUS TOMLINSON

I can feel it, he feels like a Lincoln to me. Now, I can call him by name whenever he is kicking me too hard. I can't wait to meet him and touch his little face.

Olivia

My girls love Olivia. They ask me to read  Olivia books every night.

When we went to Party City Maya was convinced she wanted a Tinker Bell piñata, but as soon as she saw Olivia she forgot about Tinker Bell. I was so happy they both liked Olivia better because everything was 50% off. After Party City we had to go back to Michael's and return the Tinker Bell stuff I had already gotten. Addison doesn't really care what theme we go with. I think as long as she gets cake and her present she will be a happy girl.



For the first time my family will be here to celebrate their birthday. It will be very simple. Also, my two uncles and their families are driving from Los Angeles to come and spend the day with us. I can't wait for Saturday! I love having family over, even if it means lots of work ;)

 I started baking the cake, which will be red velvet to go with our Olivia theme (Olivia's favorite color is red). My sister is making a flan, my favorite :)   I am thinking of making these:


The piñata is all ready to go. Mexicans always have to have a piñata :)


I am so tired, but just picturing their smiles keeps me going. If I have time I might attempt making 2 of these for the girls.

28 weeks


Night time is our favorite



Getting ready for bed always seems crazy around our house, but we love it. We take showers, brush teeth, read lots of books and say prayer. Addison started saying prayer a few weeks ago and  is the cutest thing ever.  The other night I couldn't resist taking pictures of the girls.

6 Amazing Years

Saturday  night we celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary in a very simple way. We ordered some sushi for carry out and watched a movie at home. It sounds boring, but it was wonderful to be able to sit down and relax with Phillip. Our life has been so crazy lately with school, we hardly have time to spend together.

I am so thankful for him! I must also say I am still very much in love with him even after 6 years ;)

On a Positive Note

We try to have fun here even with this cold weather.






Now I know why

People look at me weird when I am running. I think this is why.
And if they would take a closer look, this is what they would see:
The sad thing is, that these are the nice looking ones. The big ones look even worse.  This little ones go down to my foot. I hate them.
