Do I look like my mommy?

I don't think Andy looks very much like me. Maybe a little. When I was born I totally looked like a sumo wrestler. No joke...not very cute either. Unlike Andy who was the cutest newborn.

Here I am on my 1st birthday. I was one chubby baby!

I can see Andy's face in this nekid bath picture of me.

My eyes were still blue in this picture. There is another set from this day but I can't find it. They look more blue in the other set of pictures.


By this portrait session my eyes had lost the blue and moved towards hazel.


So what do you think? Aside from being white like me and following suit with my color eyes...does Andy look like his mommy?

4th of July

We spent 4th of July at Brookside Park in view of the fireworks show at the Rose Bowl. Family tradition. Unfortunately G wasn't able to join us this year since he had to work, but we made the most of it anyway.

Andy had a blast at the park. He was crawling and cruising all over the place. Going from person to person eating and playing. He really tired us all out. Here he is getting his first feel of dirt.

I was pretty worried about the fireworks show. I wasn't sure how Andy would react. But I worried for nothing because he did great! He just stared at the big light show very seriously. Almost like he wasn't sure how to react to it all. I held him tight during the big/loud ones, but he was totally fine.

So much so that he fell asleep half way thru! He must have been REALLY worn out. Andy isn't the type of kid that falls asleep anywhere. He needs a quiet bed.

All in all it was a great day. Perfect weather. Looking forward to next year!

Do I look like my Daddy?

You be the judge!

I think Andy definitely resembles G in this first picture [G's 1st bday party].

Next I'll post some of my baby pictures!

G wearing the Universal Studios Tee

Here is [baby] G wearing the exact tee that Andy wore for his 11 month pictures. I'm not sure how old G was in this shot since it is a Polaroid and has no date on it. I'm thinking this was in early 1982.

11 month pictures

Andy is sporting a vintage tee from Universal Studios (Copyright 1979). This was his dad's tee. Later I'll post the picture of Gerardo wearing this tee when he was a kid.


Happy 4th of July!
