Happy New Year!



Happy New Year!

It is hard to believe that Christmas is already over and we have started the new year!  We had a wonderful Christmas and Tallulah was so excited about Santa's visit.  She was so happy that he surprised her with her request of "the baby changing toy" and said he was a piggy for eating all the chocolate chip cookies.  After a busy Christmas morning, we had everyone over for Christmas lunch with yummy tamales, rice and beans and plenty of amazing cookies that Auntie Andrea made. 

Then the children were spoiled with many more presents to open from Abuela and the Uncles and Aunties and Cousins.  Christmas is extra special when you get to celebrate it with your children and close family.  We are so blessed with our great family and to have them all so close to us. 

Christmas was a bit sad because it was the last time we would see Auntie Sara, Uncle Richie and Cousin Julien for a couple months.  They are going to stay with Sara's dad for a couple months in Sunnyvale so we look forward to their return!

Joaquin just turned two months and is looking more like a handsome little boy and getting a bit chubby.  Tallulah is growing as well into more of a big girl.  Next week she starts ballet and she is super excited.  Everyday she has been wearing her tutu and ballet shoes and I have to say that she is quite the dancer.  We also took her to the Nutcracker ballet a couple weeks ago and it was the children's ballet so she loved it.  She danced in the aisle the whole time.  People kept coming up to ask me if she took lessons or how she learned to dance like that.  I guess she is our little natural dancer.

Tallulah also went bowling for the first time last weekend.  It was a rainy day so Uncle Jeremy and Auntie Andrea asked if we wanted to go bowling. Tallulah loved it and Joaquin slept the whole time in the Ergo carrier.  It was a fun time.

We look forward to new things in 2013 and hope for many fun family adventures as our beautiful children grow.  We are thankful for our awesome family and friends and look forward to more time with them in the year to come.

Happy New Year!

Love,
The Bravos
