Happy Mother's Day & M.O.Y. Gala

We spent Mother's Day with my mom at Sharky's in Kings Harbor. The pics below are from May 7th.

Las Tias!

Say cheese Ma!

Sometimes I forget to take off my shades.

Angie, Lesley, Lidia & Guiselle

Eric and I were invited to the Mission of Yahweh Incredible Gala! We got all dressed up and had a wonderful time with some great friends :-)

SOFIA! We can't wait till you're here!

We love our door...LOL! We took a couple of pics in front of our door and this one came out cute.

At the River Oaks Country Club right before dinner was served. Such a wonderful evening!

So I asked my friend to take our pic...what a nerd! I think it's still a good pic of us :-)

the infamous bump

There it is! I got a bump.
I noticed it Wednesday night when I got home from school.

4 months down, 5 more to go!

Sofia's room: Inspiration pics

I want Sofia's room to be serene, relaxing, beautiful and cozy! Things I definitely want in her room: chandelier, arm swivel glider, white furniture, and fresh hydrangeas :-)  

I found some more inspiration from Restoration Hardware's baby line. The pics below are amazing.

Will I buy Sofia's furniture from there? Prob not, it's pretty expensive but I'm gonna do my best to make her room look like I did ;-P

I also posted a pic of Mariah Carey's twin's nursery. It's a feel that I want for Sofia's room.

Can't wait to get started!

Coming October 2011!

I didn't want to name our baby girl until we saw her. Why? Well, Eric was picking names that I just didn't think we're...I don't know how to say it.
Anyways, for example, Sloane. Beautiful name. Madison, also a beautiful name. We hung out with my family and told them we liked Sloane. They couldn't pronounce it and totally butchered the name! Madison, when I think of Madison I picture a little girl with blonde hair and colored eyes. There's a good chance this baby girl is going to look like me :-) oh and my family butchered that name as well. So no to Madison.
We also liked Alessandra and Sofia. I love Alessandra but I don't want people to call her Sandra or Sandy or Ale. So Sofia it is! The name feels right. I love it. Then Eric said, Sofia Guiselle :-) Love it more!
I do love my name. It's pretty original and I love passing down a little tradition my dad started. He picked my name, Guiselle and then wanted my mom's name in there, Lidia, Guiselle Lidia :-)

Tia Dora's birthday

It was my Tia Dora's birthday last Saturday. Here's a few pics from her birthday dinner.

goofin' around

Eric and the birthday girl.

Happy Birthday song!

Touching the belly...not used to that yet.
We had so much fun and of course ate Peruvian food :-)

Tia Angie's new ride!

Coongrats on new car Tia Angie!
But where will we fit?
Looks like you're just gonna have to visit us a lot.

Project Nursery

This is her room! I can't wait to start decorating!
View from door. (You can see Eric watering the flowers outside.)
First change: Take out the carpet and put in dark brown wood floors.

Left side of the room. Maybe chair, lamp and bookcase on this side?

Crib on this side maybe?

Changing table on this side...maybe?
Next change: paint the walls and decide on furniture color.



Jennie Garth's daughter Fiona's nursery.
What I love about this room: the soft colors and it's pretty simple. I'm debating on white crib or dark brown crib. I think white would look great with the brown wood floors.




Ali Landry's daughter Estella's nursery.
What I love about this room: the colors and the theme.



So cute!

This is a nursery idea for Victoria Beckham or Mariah Carey. I'm liking how the white looks against the brown wood floors.

Houston interior designer Lisa Epley's daughter's room.
What I like about this room: I love the colors! I also like the furniture with the mirrors on it. I've seen some at Pier 1 and Mega Marshalls's.
I'll post little by little what I come up with :-)
