The Cary Updater

One and only........

2011-11-21T20:26:00.000-08:00

Okay so Rob and I decided it was time to cancel our facebook account and start updating our blog regularly. It feels so refreshing to have done that! So if you guys want to check up on us this is the one and only place. ;)

I have been thinking a lot lately about my life where it is now and where it is going to be in 5 years and there are so many things I want to make happen. One thing I have always always wanted 4 kids but the 3 that I have are sure kicking my butt! I go back and forth one day I am certain I am done. I will even talk to Rob about permanent options, but other days I think what the heck what's one more to the clan? Is the difference to 3 to 4 really that great? Also if I have anymore I want to get pregnant sometime next year no later. Because I don't want a big gap since I am only having one more, (or if any) so any suggestions would be great. one thing I do know is that I am so grateful for the 3 that I do have, and I wouldn't change it for anything.

Rob is still working at Advanced Shotcrete as a foreman but is currently looking into a career change. Me I am still managing these apartments. It has been tough but I know one day I will be grateful for the opportunity we had to do this.

The kids are great. Allison is loving school and she is so talented with her art she is always drawing and finding new ways to draw. She is so kind hearted just like her dad. Sophia she is as rambunctious as ever and so sweet and funny. My mom says that if I ever wonder what I was like as a child to look at Sophia, because she is my little replica. Devin is almost 18 months already and he is starting to become a little boy. He does not look like a baby anymore. It's bittersweet. He sure is a momma's boy he never wants me to put him down.

This October Me, Allison and Devin had the opportunity to go to Brazil for 19 days.

the purpose of the trip was so we could attend Ciro's wedding. It was such an amazing

experience! My Dad and my brother had never met my kids. It was so amazing to see them

hug and Kiss my kids!

Here is a photo of the Abdalla side in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Ciro and Bianca, my grandma, my dad and his wife Roberta.

Ciro at the beach with the kids

Allison and Devin. I can't get enough of that speedo.

This is the Nougeria's from my moms side in Marilia. My Grandma and Grandpa. They are just so sweet.

Allison's little cousin Camilia. Allison misses you!

This used to be my playground.......................

My Uncle, Jr, Andreza, my moms sister Lucia. I miss you guys. You promised to come visit So lets see if we can make it happen!

And all my extended family

my grandparents, aunts and uncles, and cousins. I miss brazil, I miss my dad and my brother.

My dad was a natural at being a "vovo" It was truly amazing to see him and Ciro with my kids.

Allison loved it she loved the beach and I even managed to buy Devin a little baby speedo.

I am so proud to be a Brazilian even though I was raised here. After visiting there I am bringing

some of the latin culture to my family. There is such a close bond in families in Brazil, it's just

different than here. I don't know how to really explain it. It was hard to leave Rob and Sophia

behind but next time they are coming! I miss everyone back there. I am so glad to have Bianca as

my new sister in law. Welcome to our family!

When we got back Rob and I took our dirt bikes a couple more times, it was great. I sure

love riding that thing, but what makes it better is having a hobby I can share with my best friend!

Rob got a cool little camera called a go pro he mounted it on my bike and I was fortunate

enough to have it on when I crashed my bike. I sustained minor injuries, but it's too funny!

Now the snow has arrived!

With Thanksgiving coming up I just want to say how grateful

I am for my husband and all that he does for me and our kids. I am also grateful for our

kids and the joy they bring into our lives.

Well I think that's it for now. I hope everyone has a awesome Thanksgiving! We are headed up to Idaho to spend it with Ben and Lori Jensen then off to gammie's house! Can't wait to have a calm holiday with friends and family.

6 Months later Finally!

2009-07-14T07:35:00.000-07:00

Well I decided I am finally going to sit down and update my blog. Here are some pictures we took Rob and I had a vacation scheduled and we hung around home but we did a ton of stuff.

We went to 7 peaks. We had a blast, I liked it allot better than lagoon and it was way cheaper.

Rob wrapped Sophia up because she was cold.

The waves were coming for them!

Funny face. She is so white and blond! I promise these kids are mine.

Fishing up at Jordanelle Lake We caught a few fish and some snakes.

Allison Playing in the fountain at Lagoon.

Allison on the Lady Bug ride at Lagoon she screamed the WHOLE time, Bloody murder. We left that ride and were waiting in line for another ride and some 16 year old kids walked by and was like did you hear that little kid screaming on the ride? and her boyfriend said ya that was awesome. She said, no it wasn't poor thing. That was Allison they were talking about.

Merry Go Round

Fun ride with daddy

Fountain at the Gateway.

I am sorry it has been so long since I have updated. Our computer crashed like 2 weeks ago so these are the only pictures I have until I find them on the old hard drive.

2008-12-16T09:39:00.000-08:00

I can't believe how big my girls are getting. I know Sophia is still little but I saw her up next to a newborn the other day and she was huge next to her.

Sisters

Okay I finally decided to cut Allison's hair. It was so hard to make that decision but it was good one here is a before shot.

After

So much better!

Here is Allison with Santa she was a little nervous but she still sat on his lap and told him what she wanted for Christmas.

My dear Sophia

Recently she has started to smile when she sees people she recognizes and likes. I was fortunate enough to have the camera right by my side. I can tell she loves Allison. Allison was the one that got her started smiling this time. Allison walked in front of her and sat next to her and started to talk to her. Sophia immediately turned her head to look at her big sister and started to smile so big. She was so interested in her, staring at her. It was cute. She is getting so chubby already. And she has slept through the night a couple of nights. Lets see how long that lasts.

Just some cute pictures

Halloween!

Allison loved halloween. She was so excited to do her make up like mommy and wear her Wonder Woman costume. We went to my moms house and trick-or-treated in her neighborhood. The day before Halloween I explained to Allison how to trick- or -treat and she would knock on the doors at home and play pretend it was so funny. Her imagination is amazing.

I think Allison got on a little Sugar high and started making funny faces.

We went to the zoo a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was pretty lame they have hardly any animals there anymore. Allison had a good time and she loved the Giraffe. I just remember it being so different as a kid. I think they had a lot more animals then. It was worth it but we probably wont go again anytime soon.

This is my scary pumpkin. I know I am not usually the creative one but I need to tell every one that I came up with this pumpkin. I carved it while Rob was sleeping. The only thing he did was paint the blood on the little pumpkin. When my sisi saw it she did not belive that I did it that is why I feel the need to specify, sorry. :0)

Messy Blog Entry

2008-10-09T20:56:00.000-07:00

I don't know what is going on with my blog tonight. The pictures are coming up in wierd places and I cant fix it. I don't want to put the effort in to start all over again. Here are some cute pictures that are not in order. Enjoy!

Here is Sophia

2008-10-09T13:12:00.000-07:00

Tag I'm it

1. I am a neat freak, as I get older it is getting worse. As a teenager my mom always called me a slob because I was really messy.

2. I HATE to touch feet, but it is my favorite place to be massaged. Ironic huh?

3. I am feeling really guilty for not giving Allison the attention I used to, before I had Sophia.

4. I love to get together with friends and go on double dates.

5. I love to exercise, I cant wait to start again.

Here are the rules:

A. You have t list 5 things about/habits about yourself

B. Go to 5 of your friends and leave a comment informing them that they have been tagged.

C. List at the end of your posting who you have tagged.

So I tag: Leslie, Abby, Christine , Brooke, and Erin

Here she is!

2008-09-22T10:52:00.000-07:00

Ok here they were starting the surgery I was so excited to hear her cry.

She was so healthy and pink. It was amazing she is so sweet. She looks almost exactly like Allison did but with tons of dark hair.

Sophia Christine Cary 7 lbs 1 oz and 19 inches long.

I am so grateful to be able to experience this. My children are truly blessings in my life. I love my little family!

Happy Birthday Rob!

2008-09-22T10:35:00.000-07:00

On the 17th it was Rob's b-day I cant belive he is 28.

We went out to dinner at Goodwood with his dad, and then sang happy birthday at our place.

Me getting ready to go and the last day of my pregnancy 39 weeks. It has really gone by fast!

Allison were going to temple square on the 10th because Amy and Scott were being sealed.

Allison thought the doors to the temple were Doors to the princess castle, she wanted to open them so bad!

Allison wanted Rob to build a Robot with big hair and this is what he came up with.

Allison's birthday party

2008-09-08T13:20:00.000-07:00

My little Princess

Cute picture of my favorite people.

I love this picture but.... it kind of makes me sad because Allison looks so grown up.

We really haven't been doing anything since July. It is sad because I usually love to cherish all the time I have, but I find myself counting the days lately wishing they would move a little faster. I need to take a second and start to enjoying here and now.

2008-07-15T14:09:00.000-07:00

This is some of Rob's work he makes concrete look like real rock. He has been getting so much recognition I am so happy for him.

This is on our anniversary I cant believe it has been 5 years already. We are so happy and I cant wait to see where we are in another 5 years.

Here I am at 30 weeks almost done yay!
We took Allison this past Sunday to Brideaviel Falls. She thought it was awesome.

2008-07-15T14:01:00.000-07:00

This is in the aquarium at the Wharf in San Fransisco It was a ton of fun.

We were walking up to Lombard Street in SF. It was really steep and a good work out. Mabey if I was closer to my due date I would have gone into labor.

Rob and I at Lombard Street in the background. For those of you that don't know it is the worlds most curviest road.

2008-07-15T13:50:00.000-07:00

This is the end of first street in Benicia. If I were rich I would live there. Mabey someday.

When we went to California in 2006 I took this picture of allison with the bridge in the background. So I decided to put her in the same spot on take another picture two years later.

2008-07-15T13:33:00.000-07:00

Rob's grandma passed away. So we went out to California for the funeral. We flew and Allison loved being on the airplane it was so cute. Her and Rob watched out the window during take off. After we started flying Rob said look Alli were flying. She got a really worried look on her face and said daddy I wanna go on the floor. It was so funny. But she did like the flight.

This picture is of Allison and her cousin Abigail at the funeral.

We love Aunt Marcia (Rob's Aunt) I wish I would have gotten a better picture of her.

I am so excited in this picture because I am in Kinders Deli in Benicia California, and about to indulge in a the best dang ribeye sandwich you will ever eat!

2008-07-15T13:19:00.000-07:00

I am Finally updating my blog!

You know its summer when every weekend there is a carnival going on, and your kids thinking every day should be fun like the weekend.

I haven't taken a picture of Allison in the tub in a long time.

2008-05-23T12:10:00.000-07:00

Hot Daddy!

2008-05-20T13:14:00.000-07:00

Sand Dunes

2008-05-20T13:07:00.000-07:00

We went to the sand dunes with my family, it was so much fun and beautiful. Allison loved it also, While I rode around with Alli Rob rode his dirt bike. Rob is getting pretty good on his dirt bike and he takes every opportunity he can to ride it. My brother in law (Renata's Hubby) caught a couple lizards with his bare hands. They were scared at first but after a while they laid on our hands and fell asleep. It was cute.

2008-05-20T13:01:00.000-07:00

Here is a picture of Allison and I. Rob and I always like to go to Salt lake to try new places to eat. This particular day we went to Salt Lake Pizza and Pasta it was so yummy and their wings were amazing!
