Wordless Wednesday – My Baby Boy {linky} 17

Posted on September 01, 2010 by Lisa

How did that happen? 14 years flew right by me.  My baby boy is no longer a baby but I still see that baby face when I look at him at 14 years old.  My goodness, I miss my son as a baby. He was such a good baby too.  I can’t believe he’s taller than his father.  Now he’s the tallest one in the family.

Happy birthday son. Mama loves you!

Happy WW Day!! If you want to join in on the WW fun, please link up your post below. I would love to see your WW photo! Thanks :)

Posted on August 25, 2010 by Lisa

A few months ago, I visited my abuela (grandmother) and saw this photo on her shelf. It reminded me of the show I Love Lucy. For some strange reason I thought wow, my abuela looks like Lucy and abuelo looks like Ricky Ricardo. How cute!

So what do you think?

Wordless Wednesday – 16 Years Ago 9

Posted on August 18, 2010 by Lisa

My Dad left us 16 years ago.  It was his time to go to heaven.  I still miss him dearly and I know one day we we’ll see each other again. R.I.P. Papi.

Below is a collage I made with pictures I found in old photo albums. I wish I had a digital camera back then. The photos are so grainy.

Shout-Out Sunday – BlogHer ’10 Style – 8/15 7

Posted on August 15, 2010 by Lisa

The past week has been exhausting. Blogging conferences are no joke! It took a huge toll on my body, mind and soul.  I think I can say I am almost 85%.  Not a full 100% because I have kids to take care of and they suck the energy right outta me (kidding, lol) but I’m getting there.

Last Sunday I totally forgot to post my Shout-Out Sunday so this week will feature the special people I met at BlogHer ’10.

In case you don’t know about Shout-Out Sunday, click here and find out ;)

I hope you enjoy these posts as much as I did!

2. This mama is surely a goddess when you meet her.

3. She knows how to make you feel like you’ve known each other for a long time.

4. Have you seen her vlogs? She is just as sweet!

5. I loved her blog as soon as I read the featured post and I keep coming back.

6. Whoa, my first lawyer friend and she’s a Latina too!

7. I’m so bummed I missed her book signing. I hope I get to read her book.

8. If you’re looking for a site with coupons in Spanish, this blog is for you (she’s also super nice too!)

9. She’s an inspiration to so many people. So glad to have met her.
