Christmas Day

Julianna and Alessandra woke up early and run to my room ... Julianna kept asking to go downstairs to see if Santa ate the cookie.
I called my mom and we waited for her to open the present

Julianna gave all the presents she picked for witch one of us at the Dollar store and felt very important and happy with her choices.

Later in the day we had friends over and we had a great Christmas dinner together

Fat Santa

On Christmas Eve, we left cookies and milk for Santa Claus. Julianna was moving the sofa and when I asked her what she was doing, she told me:

Mommy, since we all know that Santa is fat, let's leave him a lot of room

Sabrina present

Aunt Sabrina gave these clothes to the kids... we spent the day with some great friends

Meeeee

Anything you ask to Alessandra she answers ... meeee

She is too cute and always happy ..

Who wants cereal ?
Alessandra - Meeeee
Who wants to sleep ?
Alessandra - Meeee
Who loves Mommy?
Alessandra - Meeee

I can do this the whole day ...

1st real kiss

Alessandra's first kiss was to Alexandre ( my brother in law).

Alessandra is still very selective to whom she gives a kiss... but the first kiss we never forget :-)

Disney Not so Scary Halloween Party

The Halloween party at Disneyworld was very fun.. Julianna was Ariel and Alessandra was Minnie Mouse.

Alessandra was dancing for a long time with Donald Duck and Daisy. She did not want to leave. It was amazing to see how she is growing up. She is very funny and really enjoys making people laugh ( reminds me of Jason).

Disney

We spent one week with my sister in Orlando. The time went very fast

The best part was to see Julianna and Alessandra playing with Giovanna and Pedro Henrique. They get along so well even though they don't really speak the same language. Julianna would come to me ask how to say .... in Portuguese. She would then go and try to tell the kids what she wanted.


From playing tent to princess, the time spent at the hotel was precious.


The first day was hard. It was very hot and very humid and everybody had a hard time adapting to the Florida weather. By the second day however, everything was great.

I wish our families lived closer so our kids could spend more time together
