Noe & Talo

First, congrats to Noe and Talo on their engagement! I had an awesome time shooting them on Friday, even though i was a little under the weather (a lot under the weather in the morning). Their love for one another manifest in their interactions during my first engagement shoot ever. Here are the rest.

Boy did this weekend seem long. Not that it's a bad situation to be in. It just seemed like there was so many things to do and so little time. Since May's been out of town I haven't been able to sleep well. I've had head aches just around bed time. Maybe I just miss her.

I really wanted to see my little nephews this weekend. I was able to do that on Saturday w/ my All-Star Chucky as I took him and Skylar to the Oakland Animal Shelter to see the bunny rabbits.


Ayden on the other hand I missed seeing him when his mother came to drop off Seydee, his older sister, back here in Oakland. This kid is ozing cuteness as you can see for yourself w/ ice cream all over his face.

Last week after giving Ayden a bath I wrapped him in a towel and made it so that it wouldn't fall off him if he walked around. He looked just like a little monk, shaved head and all, as he walked from room to room. Don't worry, i'll get a picture of that and put it up.

Chilly Friday Night

Last night I had the chance to hang out w/ Kevin, John and Skylar as I took them out to the Oakland A's baseball game. Thanks to Craig's List I scored some really sweet seats for a really sweet price.

In the end, the A's lost, 3 - 2 in 10 innings, but regardless of the score we had a good time. I am blessed to have the chance to bond w/ the boys a little more.

It's a.......

As far back as I can remember I've always had the intuition that my first born would be a girl. Everyone has heard of that cliche "Daddy's Girl" before, right? I don't know what it was that made me have this feeling. So when May and I first found out we were having a baby I was completely convince that it was going to be a girl. May, too, was convinced the new baby would be a girl since her first born was a boy, our son Skylar.

So finally on the 16th of May we had our ultrasound. I remember the weekend right before the day of the ultrasound I had the slightest doubt that our baby would be a girl but instead be a little boy. Funny thing was that we had already been calling the baby by the name we picked thinking that it was going to be a girl since the day we found out: Sofie. So that day as May was taking me to work I turned to her and said, "What if it's a boy?" She then confessed that she had too had a slight doubt that our intuition was correct.

Later that morning we got our answer:

If you look closely, this is a shot of the baby from the bottom up. You can make out two little legs pointed to the left, and right in between the legs there is an extra piece protruding.
It's a boy!!!
