1 Year Old!!

I am 1!! Can you believe how fast this year has gone by??? So many good things have happened this year and I am incredibly blessed. I continue to grow and learn so much everyday. Life is great! Please enjoy the video below and the slideshow of my year in review! Love ya!!

Love Nana's Tortillas!!!

Thank you Nana! I love tortillas and I ate a whole one all by myself. So excited because my nana sent us a couple dozen homemade tortillas and I get to eat them all, if my parents will let me-they love them too! The holidays are coming and so is my birthday, so much to be thankful for!!!

The View - Kid Kountry Style

So me and the ladies have our own version of "The View" at Kidd Kountry (thats my daycare). Today's topic- what kind of food can you eat now? Enjoy and tomorrow we are going to be talking about what this whole Thanksgiving thing is that our parents are talking about.

11 months, not years

Look at me! 11 months old today, I sure look good don't I! So I can stand on my own now, but still working on that whole moving the feet thing. I can even clap too! Do you like my pajamas? One more month until the big 1.

Happy Birthday Tio Alexis!

Yes, his birthday was on Friday the 13th, and yes this is a little late, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY TIO ALEXIS!! I wrote you a card and its too big to send in the mail. Love you and can't wait to see you!!

Howdy!

My mama loves this picture!!! She took about 50 pictures to finally get this one. This hat is my papa's and I like to wear it when he lets me. How do I look?

Praying for Arizona!!

My papa asked me to say a prayer for the Arizona Wildcats, so I decided to say one for them out on the grass. They won big time and I think it was because of me. They have been doing really good this year and I hope they keep winning because my papa is in a better mood!!

A Fairy Princess

I was a fairy princess for my first Halloween. My grandma loved it and we were both having a good time. My grandma is so funny because she wanted to make sure every kid that came by got some candy, ask my mom what happens when you pass out to much candy!!!

Slippin on

My momma loves this picture and tells everybody about this. She laughs because I just decided to kind of slide down the stairs. This was my halloween outfit and we had a good time passing out candy!

Walk it out, walk it out!

Every one of you has heard the song "walk it out!". So watch me "walk it out!"

Halloween Time!!!

It's Halloween time!!! This picture was taken at my grandma's. Do I look scary? Does my cat look scary? I kept trying to knock over these pumpkins but my parents wouldn't let me. Enjoy and I love you!!!

Giddyup!!!

Check out my horsie that my nana and tata got me. I loved riding the horsie. It was so fun and I didn't want to get off but I had to because the horsie was tired. I can't wait to go back and ride it some more, maybe next time I could touch the ground and do it myself.

The Torres Ladies, and a future one (hu hm Tio Alexis!!)

Check us Torres ladies out AND Tio Alexis you need to make Elisa one too!! I loved my dress, it tasted really good too!

This is for my ladies at the Credit Union

Check out me and my Nana!!! Don't we look like some hot mama's. My papa loved it because my nana did everything for me. Dirty diaper-nana changed me, bath- nana did it, feed me- nana did it. I can't wait to go back to Willcox to hang out, I was so popular and everybody already knew me!!!

Check out those mountains!

Me and my tata just chillin outside the house. The weather was beautiful and it was nice to just sit outside and enjoy the Willcox, Arizona air.

Great Grandma, Papa, and Me!!

Check out me, my papa, and my great grandma. She got me a halloween purse and a sheep doll. I loved seeing her and we got to hang out. She told me about how great my great grandpa was!!!

Claim at Gate!!

My first plane ride wasn't that bad. I pretty much slept most the way and look what they did to my car seat. My parents are such pranksters!!

Parents for Sale! Buy 1 get 1 free!!

I love this shirt and you should've seen the looks on my parents faces. NOW they do EVERYTHING for me! I am just joking of course but I love to make people laugh. HAHAHA!!

Family Picture

Look at my mommy and papa! I am 9 months today and I love them so much because they do so much for me. I am learning a lot about everything and I want to keep making them happy.

9 Months Old!!

I am 9 months old today!!! Me and my grandma were just playing around. I like to make her laugh. As you can see I am standing up now but I am still learning how to balance myself. I have a lot of toys but for some reason I like to play with this plastic thing.

Have you seen my frog?

I am looking for my frog and I could swear it's up here. Now that I am crawling all over the place I am losing my toys. I am going to keep looking up here and hopefully it shows up. Keep your head up!!

Old School Swing!

Check out my old school swing. This swing doesn't even use batteries, you have to wind it up! Remember those swings?!?!?! If you can't tell I loved it! What do you think about my hair clips? My hair is finally getting longer. I will be on my swing, so please keep winding it up!

Finally a show I want to watch!!

My papa ALWAYS watches sports! I just play with my toys and crawl all over the place. But this show came on and I really liked it! I was just crawling and I HAD to watch this show. If you like it let me know.

You should see the ground!

So I am somewhat of a daredevil now and I tipped over my toy and fell on the ground. You can see the bruise I got on my head. Don't worry I am alright and its just part of growing up. Grandma's relax. Mom relax. I am fine but I will try to milk this for all the attention and toys it will get me. I had to sit in this chair and eat my puffs because my parents wanted to make sure I was alright. Love, Ariana

Laundry again!!!

Me and my momma were folding laundry and my dad just wanted to watch us!! I was so tired from helping my momma fold laundry all day. I am still looking for a missing sock so if anybody see's it let me know.

Enjoying an August day!

Hello Everybody! I am just enjoying another August summer day at my Grandma's house. I was just playing with my doll in the chair. The weather was beautiful and I was watching all the birds fly around. I am starting to be a bigger girl now and I love doing big girl things!

Happy Anniversary to my Parents!!!!

Dear Momma and Papa,

I love you both so much. I hope you have a wonderful anniversary and I look forward to more brothers and sisters. Love you and keep loving each other like you love me.

Love,

Ariana

Nike- Call me!

Nike- Call me because I can help you out. My papa got me this new soccerball and I love it. I can't use my feet to kick it but I can use my hands. I can do some really cool tricks right now. But seriously....NIKE....CALL ME. I am the next Michael Jordan and we can do some big things.

Have you seen my toy??

If you find my toy....send me a comment!!

Working on my tan

I definitely need to work on my tan, so I caught some good rays this weekend. I wanted to sit in the bigger tube because I am a big girl now. It was so hot this weekend and the water was perfect. Thank God for the hat because it definitely helped keep me cool. Stay cool this week!!!

Creation...of a beautiful friendship!

So what do you think? Do you see the similarities? This is the creation of a beautiful friendship. This is a picture of me and my cousin Lexi. I have a feeling we are going to have some good times in the future. For those of you that aren't art experts like me, the other picture is called "Creation" by Michelangelo.

Meet Carmen....

This is my Papa's cousin Carmen. He grew up with her in Willcox. She came to Dallas with her husband Tony to visit her dad and the Texas family. I think she came to visit me?! I really liked it when she was holding me. We did fun stuff like bowling, swimming, and played jinga.

Kidd Kraddick and Me!!!

My momma was so excited about going to watch Kidd Kraddick in the morning and so was I. She has listened to them FOREVER and every morning when she is getting ready, me and her listen to the show. From the left is JC (shoutout), Jenna, Momma, Kidd, Me, Papa, and Shannon. We also took pictures with Big Al and Kelly. I think I could have a future in radio one day, maybe they will give me an internship when I start talking. My papa is always telling me to get a job, hopefully I can get my start with Kidd. I'm a future star!!!! P.S. When I can start walking I am going to get that moonwalking record!!!!

Swimming with my cousin Samantha

I went swimming this weekend with my cousin Samantha. I was really trying to work on my tan because I have light skin like my parents. I love the water and I love swimming. I tried drinking the water but for some reason it doesn't taste like the other things I drink. I can't wait to go swimming again, hopefully before I outgrow my bathing suit.

ok....so I really love my Papa!!

I literally have him wrapped around me. I have been a little fussy lately but he gives me so much comfort.

Look at my bow!

So what do you think? Do you like it? My papa was playing volleyball and I was just laying on the mat working on my tan. I still need some work. As you can see I can now hold my head up with some good control. If you like that bow call me, my momma can make them. I love everybody and have a great day!!!

Fathers Day!!

So we took my Papa out to Pappadeaux's for his 1st Father's Day!! I got to sit at the table with my parent's for a little while. I also got to sit on my Papa's lap at church today instead of laying in my car seat! I hope my Papa enjoyed his first fathers day, especially since it's all because of me. I love you Papa!!!!!

I'm a ninja!!

AWWWW you found me. I was trying to hide from my parents. I think the pink blanket gave me away. I almost got away with it. If anybody wants to play hide and seek call me!

Baby Food???

It's going to take me awhile to get used to carrots! I don't know why my parents have to start feeding me this stuff? Did I do something wrong? I was doing so fine with milk. Look at me, I'm all dirty. I hope this gets better soon!!!

More cousins

These are my Tio Gabe's kids (my cousins). Samantha was born a couple of months before me and I don't know how she got so big?! I love hanging out with them every chance we get. My momma looks hot!!

3 of a kind!!

Check us Torres girls out!!!  We had no idea we were all going to wear the same thing, but we did.  Lexi, Lily, and Me were hanging out inside the house after we went swimming.  I think us girls are going to have a real fun time when we can actually communicate with each other.  We are going to rule DFW!!  Lexi and Lily.....love ya and can't wait to see you girls next time!!

I love swimming!!!

Oh yeah....check me out!!  This whole swimming thing isn't too bad. New bathing suit...check. Sunglasses...check.  Hat....check.  The weather was perfect and the water was warm.  I can definitely get used to doing this some more this summer!!  Catch you out at the pool, I'm the one with strawberry bathing suit!!

I'm 5 months today!!!

I was feeling a little sassy today so I put on my glasses and gold sandals.  My momma loves them.  Don't you just love my skirt!!  It was a beautiful day so I got to lay out at the pool with my cousins.  My papa even put my legs in the pool, maybe next week I will go all the way in.  Papa has to take me and Momma to the store so we can get our bathing suits, I can't wait to wear mine.  Well, I am 5 months today and I have just been happy about everything in my life.  I love everybody and have we will see you soon!!

Do you need directions??

My papa thinks I should start working so if you need directions let me know.  If you need directions call my mom or papa, I don't have a cell phone yet.  I would only be able to get you around the Dallas Arboretum because thats the only map I have.  I look forward to your business!!!   

Check out my family!!

This picture was taken at the Dallas Arboretum on my mama's first Mother's Day!  It was really hot outside but I love this picture of us.  I even decided to smile for the camera.  We took a lot of pictures.  I can't wait to get older so that I can run around and play in all the flowers.  We love everybody and once again Happy Mother's Day!!!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!!!  I want to send out a quick shoutout to my mama...I love you and thank you for being an amazing mother.  She is always there for me at night when I am not sleeping well.  She is always there for me when I need food.  She is always there for me when I need to get changed.  Basically she is amazing and I love her so much.  I hope you enjoy your very first Mother's Day!!  I hope you enjoy the day Papa has planned for you, he told me about some of the things but I am not going to tell you!!! I also wanted to say Happy Mother's Day to my grandma's and all the amazing women who have contributed to my life.  LOVE YOU!! 

My Crib

So my parents have me sleeping in my crib now. They have this camera that just sits there watching me all the time. I just look at the green light because it's really cool. We are going to do a lot of things this weekend. I made momma a card for Mother's Day. I made it with paint and my hands. We finally have cable and internet set up at my house so you will see me blogging more. Love yall!!!

That is so funny!!!

My parents don't know why I was laughing so much but I do. My papa was laughing and that made me laugh, and then my mom was recording me so I had to give her some good material.

We have them wrapped around our little fingers!!!

Girl Power!!! Who really runs the show? This is a picture of my papa and his cousins with their daughters. We went to a barbecue this weekend at Marco's. I got to chill with all my girls, and Jacob. I can't wait to run around with them and do all that big kid stuff. It's so funny how these guys think they run the show, but we love them like crazy!!!

TEETH......they are coming!!!!

So I am getting teeth....yikes!! So far this whole teething thing is making me slobber like crazy, AND I can't stop chewing on my hand. This is a picture of me going through some of this pain that I am experiencing right now. Pray for my parents!!

Willcox, Arizona!!!

So I went to Willcox with my family for Easter, and my Baptism!! The drive was about 13 hours one way but I slept most of the way. I would wake up once in awhile to eat and poop or get my diaper changed. I loved hanging out with my grandparents and my tio Alexis and tia Marissa. It was also really nice to see so much family. I felt like a princess because everybody wanted to talk to me and hold me. I also got baptized on Easter and like Father says "you can now experience your Catholic Faith in the mosh pit". I loved wearing my white dress. I will have to get used to the Arizona dryness, or put on more lotion so that my skin doesn't get so dry. I want to thank all my Family and Friends that made it to Willcox this weekend. I love you and please check out the slideshow pictures.
