September Highlights
Activities and learning:
DMA - Fist Tuesday (Kid's Days): Bapcia and I had a wonderful day with Guinny and Adelaide celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month! We made craft and took an art tour. But this time they had a special treat too - a live music and dance performance. Adelaide was totally enthralled :)
Swimming
Guinny continues to take weekly swim classes (indoor) and enjoy practicing and playing in our neighborhood outdoor pool and play area, while it's still open. Adeilade and Maryvonne seems to take after her thoroughly enjoying the water. We even had a playdate with Annie and her girls. Lots of fun along with a few scares (little ones jumping in deep waters), but all in all had a great time playing and snaking. Looking forward to getting together again.
Bdays Celebrating
We had Stephan and Sophia join us to celebrate Grandmama. Her strawberry cake with chantilly frosting (ordered from Market Street) was amazing. Grandmama's tummy was happy!
We had chocolate mouse cake (from Costco) for Rick's celebration at home. He received 2 Princess Leia Lego figures from me and a duo coffee maker from the girls.
The girls had lots of fun at Maya's birthday party. It was Day of the Dead themed. And the pinata was a hit ;) Sarah had Gabe go last and he got it good, creating an explosion of candy.
We also finally got together with Grammy to celebrate her birthday. She came over. We enjoyed chicken enchiladas, white cake with chocolate frosting and lots of catching up.
Playgroup
We got together with Adelaide's playgroup again. M' stayed comfy at home with Grandmama while G' and A' enjoyed cookie decorating and outdoor playtime. The weather was amazing and the gathering was relaxed. A' made a run for it - reaching the street. Luckily another faster mom was able to swoop in and help me wrangle her. Ugh, I wrapped things up so we could go after that.
Maryvonne
She is now 4 months old. Growing so fast! She continues to be an easy nurser and wonderful sleeper. She even has started to have a few nights in her pack and play - sleeping through the night. This is way earlier than Guinny (through the night in her crib - closer to 9 to 10 months) and Adelaide (through the night in her crib - about 8 months).

Mama time
Been breast feeding/pumping for 5 months now. With poor posture and
wacky sleeping my back and shoulders grew sore and stiff. Today I
visited my chiro for the first time in a long time. WOW! I feel
wonderful! 30 min massage, adjustment, and mild stretching exercises
felt like a total reset both physically and emotionally. I am re-charged
and ready to tackle a busy week.
