Beach Fun With the Little One

We went to the beach last week for Family day. Well...my family (me and Amelia), Kat's family (her, Eman and Adrian), and Nina's family. (Nina, I guess I can adopt her as part of mine seen as me and Amelia were only two and Eman and Kat and Adrian were three....uhh...anyways)
So, we all went in metro, and we enjoyed ourselves quite muchly. Amazing how much stuff you have to take when you have a kid compared to when you're single. Theres the towels, a change of clothes for the lil one, food for the lil one, toys for the lil one, buggy, sunscreen lotion, water, a cup for the water and if possible, one of those umbrella thingys. GEEEZ.
Before Amelia all I needed was a bathing suit, a towel, a shirt (I use shorts for a bathing suit so I didn't need pants), and maybe a sandwhich thrown together at the last minute. Oh...and MAYBE some money to get icecream or some random thing at the mercadio.
Anyhow...here are pictures of Amelia on our excursion.

LOST!

I have lost all my pictures!!! Well...the ones from June 2008 all the way to May 2009.
It is a heart breaking experience...and one I will learn from, I will from now on be SURE to back up all these precious things! I've even lost the pictures from File's visit which I was going to make a post about....that's what I get for procrastenating!
Oh well...PTL, at least I have from when Amelia was 2 months up to 8 months...I should be thankful I guess.
ARGH....CRAZY CRAZY STUFF!!!!!

Paperwork Update

I got the certificate which says Amelia cannot be British, so now I can proceed with getting her Spanish nationality! FINALLY! TYJ!!!!
Here are some pictures from paperwork trips.

Pray Please!

Please pray for Amelia's paper work to get sorted out asap! She doesn't even have a nationality yet, and it seems she'll be about 5 by the time she gets it, which means...no flying on Ryanair with her, no leaving Europe. YIKES!
Pray that we'll at least be able to get her a N.I.E with no problem, that we'll find out which is the best step to take next, and that getting her nationality sorted won't be too much of a hassle and it won't involve paying a lot of money.
(I still think these paper work people are STUPID)
oh well, TYJ....I guess this is a lesson on trusting him no matter what.

Vid of Mimia

This is especially for Glenn, Trin, and Ebony...and I guess Fran now too since hes not going to be living here anymore...heh.

Happy Birthday Bubu!

I love you! You're the spaciest, most puppy eyed child I've ever met!
Your probably the one that I've taken care of the most, and the one who's been the most mushy with me! MUAH!
Glad you've enjoyed you Pocoyo birthday :D

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I think Eman and Kat deserve a post! They have this wonderful....SOMETHING! I've been battling with Amelia for more then a week now to put her to sleep without nursing her. Whenever I try, she either doesn't sleep her nap, or it takes me 1 hour to put her to sleep.
Yesterday they put her to sleep in 5 minutes, and today in 2! With no screaming, crying, or any of that drama.
Thanks guys, and not just for this...but for being here and being snazy, fun, and talkable to friends. :D
There...end of my mushy post.
Hugs to both of you...(haha, there you go Eman, hug! HA. I can give hugs plenty fine...or something like it)
