HAPPY (LATE) MOTHERS DAY


Can you believe this is the only photo I have from this past week?  My little Sofia and her wacky hair eating her banana/avocado mixture in her new chair, gosh I love her!  :) I've been taking advantage of the camera I always have with me (my iPhone) and have neglected the blog for Instagram over the last few days and for that I am sorry!  To all my favorite mamabloggers out there I hope you all had the happiest of mothers days.  I unfortunately didn't even get to spend the day with my daughter as I had to work all day, but Erick took me out for a quick dinner afterwards and massaged the heck out of my back when we got home!  Yes!

Things have been SO busy around here, and I thank you all so very much for hanging in here with me!  All this party planning has been making me dizzy, but we're getting there!  Erick and I are also taking our first year wedding anniversary trip this weekend so be prepared for lots of fun travel photos and probably another excursion with Sofia's best baby friend, Violet.  Summer in Chicago is definitely coming and the air is crisp and clear.  My heart is racing with anticipation of all the amazingly fun things we have planned and yet to do!  Can you feel it?

Week 27 Update

Hello fellow internet peoples.  Decided to give a HD video update for the beginning of my third trimester.  (WE SO EXCITED!)  It was a ton of fun to make, this time we were at home in Chicago.  Erick had a bunch of lighting equipment after all the interviews he did with the chicago school councils, so before he had to ship them back we took full advantage ;)  I'm learning more about codec and h.264 and prores 422 and although it makes absolutely no sense to me, maybe it will be useful knowledge in the future.  What do I know? It was obviously a very gesture laden, emotional, 10 minute interview.  I hope you all enjoy it.  It really is longer than I expected but instead of completely chopping it up, I decided to leave it how it is.  It's pure, natural, pregnant-y goodness of brain farts, odd humor, and searching for the right words.  If you make it to the end, remind me to give you a gold star or something.  I'll do it. ** A ...

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.
