"A portrait of my children, once a week, every week, in 2013."

Sofia: Over the weekend we celebrated your second birthday over at your Grandma's house. You're an absolute water bug, very excited that your Gram hosted the party at her house with her big blue pool. All your friends splashed the day away with you. You're quick to tell us when something is not going the way you planned it to - just like any two year old should do. Getting you out of the pool at any given time was definitely not in said plan.

Alba: My sweet girl with the big lips and poof of strawberry blonde hair; not surprisingly, your hair has magically changed over the months from the dark brown set you were given at birth. You had no problems being passed along to all of our extended family members that haven't had the chance to meet you yet. You slept most of the day, like you usually do, but managed to give me one squishy stare before I put my camera down for the night.

    I love this series! I though about doing it for my own children, but wasn't sure I would keep up with it. Your babies are adorable.

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.
