"So, there is the story of a chicken named pox that is trying to pay us a visit. Two weeks ago, we were in contact with her and we did not know it was her. Later on we found out that it was really the chicken. "
Two weeks ago Nolan, Caden and Miya were exposed to chicken pox and we were wondering if they were infected or not... since then, we (mommies) have been watching every single red dot that showed in their bodies and wondering if that is it... I have been hanging out with Sherri and Vanessa only, just to be on the safe side. So, we started calling us the "quarrantine group".
At the beginning I freaked out, as a normal first time mom... but then I realized that there was nothing I could have done or could do that will keep him 100% safe.
God is in control. I finally then surrender these things to God and it's like a heavy burden out of my shoulders.
For now, we wait... 1 more week with the "quarrantine group" : )

Remebering the first and favourites
I was just trying to sleep and I couldn't stop thinking of how this year went by fast... Lawton and I were putting Nolan's pictures in frames and we were looking at how much he changed. Not only he has changed but I also changed with him. He really made me realize so many things in my life, like how capable I am to overcome difficulties and how much joy I'd never imagine on having such a simple life. Just by taking care of him and having a meaninful life, impacting his life in this world. I can imagine when he grows up how much more it will be!
So many first happened, Nolan had his first photo session at 3 months, when I was so desperately trying to register how tiny he was and how he already changed at that time. Then second session was now, at almost 12 months! Yes, our little baby is turning one! His first tooth came out when we were visiting Ama' and Acon in April 2009, his first word was "mumu" (for food), then his second word was mama (when he needed me), his third word is Ama' when he'd see grandma's picture in the computer., his forth word was Papa (of course!), he started turning the pages of his books at 7 months (seriously!), Nolan's first sign language was "more" where he'd clap his hands for food but now he does that when he wants something, he recently started pointing at Mila's bowl and said "mumu" = food. Then today at the restaurant he pointed to someone else's food and said "mumu!".
Nolan's favourite toy is the computer's keybord, where he bangs on it, then he found the mouse and started dragging it while I walk him around the house... His first steps was 2 months ago and after that nothing stopped him. The other day Lawton held his little hands and they were chasing Mila all over the house and he was laughing so much. He loves to come back home because he knows we're going to see Mila and he just started to put his face close to her mouth so that she can lick his face... and he ever opens his mouth : P
His favourite books are: "Historinhas da biblia" (where he have windows that he can flip), "Guess how much I love you?" (I usually change the characters to be Nolan and Mamae and he loves it!), The very hungry caterpillar (which he learned how to flap the book at the end when the caterpillar became a butterfy), "Pat the bunny"(he always stick the book on his face to smell the flowers).
Each day is different, each day there's something new... just today i was at the mall inside the store and Nolan called my attention, pointed outside and said "Uh". I looked and there was Yeh Yeh!
Yeah, I love to talk about him!
