Pizza Pizza!

We made delicious homemade pizza the other night... yes, the dough too! My new KitchenAid that my wonderful husband bought me for Christmas came with the recipe. Mmmm. It was so scrumptious! Let me know if you want the recipe so you can also enjoy the deliciousness.

Rice Cereal

Max had his first rice cereal meal on thursday night.

He wasn't too sure about it at first...but then he decided to clean the bowl! :)

4 month appt.

Max had his 4 month appointment today. He's in the 90% for his weight (17 lbs.) and 95% for his height (27 in.). He's already cut 1 tooth and the Dr. said that his two front bottom teeth will be cutting through in the next couple of days! Wow! We've got an early bloomer. He had his shots and he was a trooper... only cried for a few seconds. He gets to start rice cereal now and next month he starts vegies! Yum yum.

Chargers beat the Colts in overtime...YAY!

The Marshall Clan

Family time at Grandmother's house

Great Grandpa

Max met his great grandpa Roberto. He loved him!!! He was smiling so much at him. He loved Letty and his Aunt Denise and Mindy too. They bought him lots of cool toys for Christmas and we ate the most delicious tamales that Letty made. Mike ate five, I ate three.... :)

We can't wait to see them again.

Christmas Day

We woke up to this load of presents... I guess this is what happens when you have six kids and a grandbaby! I think we will stick to having 2 or 3 ;)

Christmas Eve in the Snow

We went to Idllewild to see my Aunt Tillie and cousins in the cabin they were staying in. It made our Christmas feel more like Christmas! Mike had a snow ball fight with my cousins Diego and Niko. We had hot cocoa and tamales... yummy! Later that night, Jeff made a delicious dinner, we watched a great movie called Namesake, and then opened presents. It was so fun... the best Christmas Eve yet.

My Incredible Savings

I just wanted to let everyone know about my incredible savings I had at the grocery store. I've been using coupons ever since I heard about how much money you can save if you use them right (thanks Rachel!). I know this is a silly thing to blog about but I'm just so proud of it!!

I paid about $44.35 for $115.95 worth of groceries. So awesome!!!

I also bought 8 packages of diapers for $44.92. They were worth $95.92! Yay!

Reaching

My baby is reaching and playing with his toys now! I'm so proud.

Little Buddies

Max and his cousin, Stephen had a fun week together.

Thanksgiving in San Diego

Little Max all bundled up

We got to see Mike's Aunt, Uncle, and cousin. They were really cool.

Beautiful Grandma!

Grandma and Grandpa admiring their grandson :)

Everyone kept saying Max looks like Grandpa!
