Mi tio y Maverick

 Hello again! Eric and I had a great weekend! It all started Friday night with my family coming over to our house to celebrate my Tio Walter's birthday. My mom and Tia Dora cooked asado and papa a la hauncaina, Lesley brought my tio's favorite cake, tres leches, and I prepared the gifts.
Notice the 3 yellow gifts bags. They play a special role later in the night.

Oh my husband...here he is imitating me and how I stand when I take pics. Yes, I tend to squat, kneel, and even bend sideways if I feel I need a different angle to take a picture.

Us.

Asado, papa a la huancaina y arroz blanco. Ah y un huevito :-) Hmmm que rico!
Tres leches!

My tio and his sisters.

Feliz Cumpleanos Tio!

Chris took this pic and my mom was taking a pic with my uncle's camera. I'm looking at her...waiting...for her to focus and take the PIC!!!

Birthday song in english and spanish!

Make a wish tio!

O.K. now the fun begins. I purposely made my Tia, Tio and Lesley sit on the couch together.

He's opening his last gift.....

Pic-story: I hadn't told them I was pregnant yet and I wanted to tell them in a cute way. I ordered custom baby bibs for each of them. After my tio was done opening gifts, I gave them each a yellow gift bag and told them to open it on the count of 3. My tia and tio didn't get it yet. They thought I bought them a bib that said I loved them.  I didn't get a pic of Dora putting the bib up against her chest and smiling like it was for her.
When Lesley looked at her bib and what it said, she asked, "Is this for my neice or nephew?"
"YES! I'm pregnant!" I said and then my tio jumped up from couch and gave me a big hug. Everyone congratulated us and told us they are so happy and excited!

I heard my cousin Chris say "Finally" while I was taking this pic of Dora. Funny.

Can't wait to take baby pic with these bibs. Thank you Ruth! If you want or need personalized bibs, check out http://www.etsy.com/shop/siblingspecialtees
Maverick Cole Powers stopped by to visit us on Sunday. What a sweet surprise. Why's he crying? Hmmm maybe he's hungry...

maybe he's tired....

maybe he's gassy....

or maybe he has a dirty diaper!
Thanks for stopping by Powers family!
