A Day of First for all of the Girls!!

                             The girls before heading off to school.  They were both so excited.
                                                                   Me and the girls!
                                                          Gaby in front of her new class.
                                    Through the window of Gaby's class.  She adjusted well.
                                                   Check out Sofie's kicks.  She loves them.  

Last Monday was a day of firsts for all of the Vazquez girls.  Sofie started her first day of 1st grade which she loves.  Gaby started her first day of Preschool, which she loves.  And I started my first day of work (in 6 years) which I also love.  I am teaching Gym at a local preschool where Gaby is going.  I thought she would have a hard time adjusting since she has only ever been with me, but she loves her teachers Ms Gloria and Ms Kelly.  She is having so much fun.  Sofie loves 1st grade, she is still trying to understand though why she does not have homework every night.  I keep trying to tell her to enjoy it now, because I am sure it is coming.  

Gaby is 3!!!!

I love this kid!!  Gaby turned 3 yesterday.  She still continues to amaze me every day.  And when she is around you are always laughing, she is definitely the one that will keep the party going.  We had a low key day on her actual birthday since John had Lasik that morning.  We went out to Coldstone for ice cream that night.  Today we went to my moms house for a party.  When we got there she had some Cars decorations and balloons, Gaby loved it.  She got a lot of cool Cars things and she got a Cars bikini that my mom made for her.  She wanted to sleep in it tonight, no kidding, she would not take it off, I had to take it off of her an put her PJs on after she went to sleep.  Johns parents, her Abu and Papa also came up for the weekend to celebrate with her.  She loves her Abu and Papa.  It has been a great birthday and I love her more and more everyday, she is so funny and loving to be around.  Here are a few BDay pics.

I CAN SEE CLEARLY NOW!

On Friday the 1st John had Lasik eye surgery.  He said it was amazing and he can see clearly now without any glasses or contact lenses.  The girls and I watched the surgery and it got my stomach going a little.  Here is a pic of John in sunglasses which he has not worn in over 8 years.  He looks so different.  We also let Sofie smash his glasses she thought that was cool!
