Good news for our Family!!!

As some of you may already know, Mark got accepted to the Masters School Leadership Program at Harvard University. We are really exited, although I am not exited about the cold weather and moving again, I think I better buy a good coat and some good boots.
Please congratulate Mark, he's been a little modest and won't tell anyone unless they ask.
The Program will be for a year. I think we will be moving at the end of July or beginning of August and the program will end next August.

Como algunos de ustedes sabran, Mark fue aceptado al Programa de Maestria en Liderasgo en Educacion en la Universidad de Harvard. Estamos muy felices, aunque no estoy tan emocionada por el frio de aya y por la mudanza, creo que voy a comprarme un buen abrigo y unas botas.
Porfavor feliciten a Mark, el es un poco modesto y no quiere decirle a nadie a menos que pregunten.
El programa va a ser por un año. Creo que nos vamos a mudar los ultimos de julio, principios de agosto y el programa terminara el proximo agosto.

This are a few pics of my child. He is getting cuter and smarter everyday. What can I say, he is my son!! lol.
I took these couple of pictures in Durham while visiting some friends. I was glad to have help while taking the pictures. When I try to do it by myself, he likes to touch the camera and after each shot he wants to see the picture. I think he is trying to make sure I'm doing it right.

I made him pose for me and I was surprised he did it.

The other day I was shopping at Target and when I was about to pay, I saw Isaac holding this hat. I didn't even notice he had it. He must of grabbed it from the shelves. I had to buy it, I think he looks cute and of course he wanted it. I think sometimes having an only child makes me spoil him more. Isaac definitely gets his way a lot of times.



That is a cute smile, I love this picture!!!!

I think Isaac might give me trouble when he gets older. He has so many fans anywhere we go, and of course all the fans are women. Not just young women, but older women too. There was a young woman in Honduras that wants Isaac to go back when he gets older. Mark told her no, because by the time he is twenty, she'll be thirty-five.

This are his two favorite stuffed animals. Pablo from Backyardigans and Brandon a dog we bought him in Honduras.

ICE AGE 2

Today we had some snow here in Fayetteville NC, but mostly it was ice.
We took Isaac out so that he could see the snow, being his first time to kind of enjoy it. Unfortunately last year we were in Honduras and were not able to see the snow, and the year before that he was 6 months during the winter time and we did not have a very cold winter that year.
Isaac was sick last week but he is feeling better. We took him to the doctor in Durham because he doesn't have a pediatrician here and none would see him sick as the first time visit. So we went to Durham. He had a bilateral ear infection which was causing the fever.Thankfully he is better and we don't have to stay up all night with him anymore.Here are a few pics and a video from today, hope you enjoy it!!!!!


Hoy tuvimos nieve aqui en Fayetteville Carolina del Norte., pero mayormente era hielo.
Sacamos a Isaac afuera para que pudiera ver la nieve, era la primera vez basicamente que la disfruta un poco. Desafortunadamente el año pasado estuvimos en Honduras(no me la tomen mal eh, nada mas lo digo por la nieve) y no pudimos ver la nieve, y el año antepasado Isaac solo tenia 6 meses y no lo disfruto, pero tampoco tuvimos mucha ese año.
        Isaac estaba enfermo la semana pasada pero ya esta mejor.
Lo llevamos al doctor en Durham (en otra ciudad como a hora y media de aqui) porque no tiene pediatra aqui y ninguno lo iba ver por primera vez solo porque estaba enfermo, entonces fuimos a Durham y tenia una infeccion bilateral de oidos que le estaba causando la fiebre. Lo bueno esque ya esta mejor y no tenemos que desvelarnos mas con el.Aqui hay un video y unas fotos de hoy, espero que las disfruten!!!!

My cute boy

 These pictures were taken on Monday and I meant to post these pictures last week, but like always there is something going on.
On thursday Isaac started feeling sick and last night we had a rough night with him. He had a fever of 105 F, but fortunally we were able to get it down. (**note from Mark: He threw up all over me, I love being a parent!!!) He seems to feel just a little bit better but we are hoping that his fever is not going to come back.
        I had a good time trying to take these pictures, he did not seem very happy when I pulled my camera out, he thought we were gonna go outside and play but I wasn't planning the same.

We were walking on the back of the apartments and Isaac saw this little bicycle sitting on the back porch  of our neighbor  and he stole it and I  I let him do it  because I wanted to take a picture on the bicycle. We took it back once we were done.

These are just a lot of pictures I took.



 

I was torturing Isaac, I was trying to put him on the swing standing up but he did not like it.




 

 
I got a few pictures of him making some cute little faces.



 

 

 

 

 

 
This is one of my favorite pictures.
 

 

He was tired and wanted to go home and get the lollypop I promised him.

 

 

I let him get into our neighbors car. Isaac loves trucks.



 I love this pictures, and you might be wondering how I got him to pose, well I told Isaac, lets take a picture for grandma and he is like, picture for grandma, grandma. I got him to sit and I put my hand on my chin and he did it for me too.I said this picture was taken for grandma, now I have to give this picture to grandma.




These is Isaac's gift for letting me take pictures, and he was enjoying it.

I know it has been a long time since I posted anything on the blog, and I'm sorry, but life has been really busy lately. Mark, Isaac, and I came back from Honduras on November 18 of 2009. It was a hard move from one country to another, then 2 weeks later we moved again to an apartment. We are living now in Fayetteville, NC. My in-laws live here and it is very nice to have family close to us, since in Honduras we were by ourselves basically. So it has been a great blessing.
Mark is still working with the NC virtual public school, I stay at home but I am planning to start my photography business soon. We are trying to get back to normal life, though I don't even know what normal is anymore.
I feel blessed that we are back and even though it was hard to move from Honduras because we made great friends down there. We are happy to be back and happy that I get to stay in the country without any legal problems.
I took a few pictures of our apartment during Christmas time and I meant to post them but you know how it goes with Christmas and moving so, here they are. I also took a few pictures of Isaac a few weeks ago and a few recent ones I took with his cousins Emily and Adam. I hope you enjoy the pictures and I will be posting a lot from now on since blogging has become a little easier thanks to my sister-in-law Elizabeth.
I hope to be in touch with all of you who look at our blog and sorry again.
