Danny's 5th birthday

Today we attended Danny's 5th birthday party, which took place at Froggy's Playhouse in Pembroke Pines.  Danny is the son of my good friend Jessica, who is expecting her 2nd baby this year, we were so happy to spend some time with her wonderful family!
The girls had an amazing time bouncing up and down and eating pizza and cupcakes... It was such a great party!
Happy Birthday, Danny! We hope you had a blast!



Night out

Last night Iggy and I out went out dancing to one of the "hottest" Latin clubs in downtown Miami...
It is called "Kukaramakara" and it is a Colombian club, which features a live band and Latin music.. (formal review will be posted on my Business Reviews section)...
We had such an amazing time and enjoyed dancing the night away... We also had a couple of drinks and felt young and careless for a night...
This morning I felt like a truck ran me over, but it was worth it for all the fun we had....I slept until 1pm (my sister kept the girls) and I was still super exhausted... Fun times! I hope we can do it again soon!

"Baby fever" no more!

If you have followed my blog for at least a few months, you might remember this post, where I spoke about my desire to have another child and how torn I felt about the decision...
Well, I must say that a few months have made a huge difference in my perspective regarding whether or not to add to our family...
I can proudly say that I am ENTIRELY convinced that two kids is PLENTY and that I have reached the point where I am TOTALLY content and satisfied with my two beautiful girls... "baby fever" NO MORE!
I have scheduled an appointment with my ob/gyn to discuss the steps to get the Essure procedure done; this is a permanent procedure that will make me sterile forever!  Sounds drastic, right?
Well...I am coming to terms with our decision and happy with the way life is right now!  Babies are cute and all, but traveling is way more fun... with more than 2 kids, life would be too hard!  Iggy, of course, wholeheartedly agrees with me...we're so ready to close the "baby" chapter in our family book!  Our family is finally complete!

"The Smurfs"

Today I took the girls to the movies to watch "The Smurfs", which came out a few days ago...
Not only did it bring me back to my childhood years, when I used to watch The Smurfs' cartoon, but it also made me laugh and I had such a great time...
The movie plot is quite original and the animations are amazing... the Smurfs almost look real and they are hilarious..
The story revolves around the little blue people getting out of their village by accident and landing in New York city, where they meet Patrick and Grace, the couple that helps them return home... but before doing that, they all have quite the adventure in the city..
I also loved Neil Patrick Harris in that movie, he looks so cute that I almost forgot he's gay! ha ha!
Although I don't think this is completely a kids' movie, I do think it's great, even for a movie date night...
In my book, this one gets 5 out of 5 stars! The Smurfs rock!!!

Magic Kingdom

During our mini trip to Disney, we also visited the Magic Kingdom, which is the girls' favorite park...
Even though it was hot as hell, we were able to enjoy the day and have all the fun we could have.. We went on several rides and saw the parade, which Olivia really loves...
We even met up with some friends and took a bunch of pictures...
What a great day!

Animal Kindgom

This weekend we took a mini trip to Disney with the girls.. it was a blast...
On Saturday we visited Disney's Animal Kingdom, which is one of the smallest Disney parks...We had only been there once before and we were in a rush, so this time we took the time to explore the park and I'm really glad we did...
It is such a nice place and extremely kid-friendly...it has so many wonderful rides and fun activities for the whole family.. The girls enjoyed some rides at Dinoland USA and Olivia even went on the rapids... it was so much fun....
Iggy and I went on the "Expedition Everest" roller coaster and had a blast as well...
I thought the Animal Kingdom was just a "glorified zoo", but this visit definitely proved me wrong.. it is just another awesome place by Disney!
