12 pounds, 6 ounces, 24 inches

The figures above (12 pounds, 6 ounces, 24 inches) are not how much I gained after killing this cake on my first birthday. They represent how much I weighted when I was born! Much of that can be attributed to the fact that I was three weeks late, and that my mom craved Mexican food [...]

Things to do in 08

Graduation 07

Graduation finally came this past weekend and we all had a great time. It was fun to get to share this moment in my life with family and friends. Arelis’ dad made the trip, as you can see in this photo. Unfortunately, Jeremy Deering had “airplane issues” and couldn’t make in time for the ceremony, [...]
