FAMILY DAY WEDNESDAY - LET'S GO EXPLORING


Today, we visited the Morton Arboretum- a little place in the suburbs of the city.  My cutoff shorts
and very white legs made their first appearance of the year, and all three of us are positively
wiped out!  Whew!  When's the next adventure?

    oooh all that green! This looks like such a great place to explore! I hope you had a wonderful family day.

    BTW: those cut offs short are awesome. I feel the need to make a pair of my own because they are that awesome.

    I just stumbled upon your blog from I don't remember where. I've been looking through all your old posts. Lovely photos! I'm a sucker for arboretums, myself. I go fairly frequently myself. My own white legs have yet to make an appearance this year yet and I live in SoCal.

    That is such a special place for me. My parents brought me there when I was Sofia's age, Brandon and I got married there, and now I bring Emma there! It is so beautiful, and your pictures are gorgeous!

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible.  I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa.  Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit.  I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure.   Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ?  It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.

bump : week 22

I've said it before, but if I could pack up and move my entire family straight into the By The Barkers studio space, I would. Absolute heaven! As for our little one, he or she has been giving me strong, swift kicks - especially around bed time.  Waves and ripples dance across my belly as I lay in bed waiting, watching.  I'll admit, it's been difficult for Erick and I since we've decided to keep things a surprise as far as the gender.  We were both so used to the feeling of knowing with Sofia that it's made this pregnancy a completely unique experience.  My intuition keeps swaying back and forth wondering if this little one is a boy or girl, and judging by the way that I look, feel and eat, my best guess is that we have another little lady on the way. (Though, if you ask Sofia, she's already told us she thinks baby is a "bruh-der")  !!! Mamas out there, was your intuition right? Any tell-tale signs or...
