Tito & Jacklyn

Well here goes another blog since I'm in the mood to talk about love. : )
October 10,2009 seemed so far away from February 2008, the month my brother proposed to his (then) girlfriend Jacklyn in Venice, Italy. It is now October 14,2009...4 days after the wedding. It came and went soooo fast. But it was wonderful, beautiful, fun and just everything lol. She was a beautiful bride and he looked very handsome too. They are both beautiful people, inside and out. But there inside beauty is one of a kind, they have great personalities and love everyone around them. My brother has always been a great man but he has become a stronger and better person since he met Jacklyn. She's a great person, I've only known her for almost 2 years and I feel as if I've known her forever. She's great to get along with, she always has a great big smile across her face and she will make a stranger feel like she's known him all her life. Most importantly her and my brother love eachother so much, you can see it in there smiles, in there eyes when they look at eachother, there way of talking to eachother. They are great people and I am very happy for the both of them and really hope that there marriage lasts them a lifetime. I'm glad my brother found a good woman who supports him in all his decisions and guides him towards a good path. The wedding itself was really good. It was a little chilly but the dancing, the beer, wine, and the running around made it ok. I dont think anyone complained. We took plenty of pics. My family looked very nice. My baby looked beautiful in her red dress too. Jacklyn's sister is a great photographer and she was the one taking all the good shots. We finally took family pics and i'm waiting to see those but i'm sure they came out great. We took some great pics at the Funk Booth too. I will post some pics on here when I get a chance. I caught Jacklyn's bouquet! So hopefully it will bring me good luck and I will find a good man someday lol. Honestly, I'm not looking though I am good how I am now...just me and my baby. But....if it happens it happens, right?? Well if i think of anything else i will add to this.

I can smell fall coming in......

I love summer but I've started to like Fall season alot more....I guess its the cool weather, leaves falling, Halloween, Thanksgiving and just all the fall festivals we go to and most of all because my baby gets to enjoy everything this year. Its gonna be so much fun!! Last year was fun but not all that because Sofia was only 9 or 10 months old and she was just learning to walk and well she was still to little to know anything. She probably wont know anything now but I know she'll be more excited about seeing new things. This month we have our Sept. 16 festival in Bryan, then my brother's Stock the Bar party at his house. And, next month we have my brother's wedding, the Mushroom Festival, Halloween, halloween parties and it all starts from there. I love it! Thanksgiving is one of my fave's...because we get our grub on. Then Christmas. Then Sofia's 2nd bday. Then a new year!! WOW. Time is flying. Well I'm gonna try to enjoy this fall and winter with my baby to the fullest. Hey maybe I'll even dress up with Sofia for Halloween this year lol. Well peace out!!

Sofia is 20 months old!!

Only four more months and my baby girl turns 2!! I never believed time would go by this fast. But I can honestly say that I've enjoyed every moment with my daughter since the day she was born, good days and bad she's made my life WONDERFUL! My life is better because of her...without her I was always empty. She's my pride and joy, she's my smile, my heartbeat, my reason for going on. I can talk about her all day and say the greatest things about her but I just couldnt be here all day doing that lol. I love my baby though. I spoil her every chance I get. Of course I try not to spoil her so much and let her know when I dont like something she does or teach her whats wrong and right so hopefully I'm doing good with her and she'll respect me later. She knows when I give her that "look" she needs to stop what she's doing and walk away from getting in trouble lol. She's so sweet too, she loves hugging and giving kisses. She doesnt fight with anyone since she doesnt have anyone to fight with so hopefully she stays that way for a while. She talks so much already, its so cute! I can actually sit there and conversate with her and although some words arent complete I know exactly what she's telling me...its funny. She knows alot though, it amazes me how smart my baby is. I guess talking to her like a normal person has helped alot...meaning I never talked to her in all that baby talk. Dont get me wrong I will play with her and talk to her sweet and do all the baby talking but only when we're playing..when its time to conversate we are square bizz lol. Kids are smart. She's so active. I've seen other kids around her age who dont seem as active as her...and those moms think they have a handful lol, spend a day with Sofia..thats all i gotta say. She's a good girl though, she just never stops..like the energizer bunny. But when 10pm comes around the corner she is knocked out til the next morning....late morning. She had her 18 months check up last week, yea 2 months later lol. She's good though, Dr. said she looked really good and she's still very advanced for her age. She weighed 32.6 lbs and measured 35.75 inches...which is one fourth away from being 3 feet tall....THREE FEET TALL!!! Its unbelievable. She is really tall though. She's now wearing 3T clothes and size 6/7 shoes. She has all the teeth she is supposed to have now lol and her hair is growing so much but its a mess lol. Its growing wild! Thats why in the pics it always looks messy. At least she'll never have to worry about buying volumizing shampoos lol. I dont think she'll be having a 2nd year birthday party, i just have to much stuff going on right now. If I do make something it'll be only family. But God willing that everything is good by then I will make her a lil something...we'll see. i can't wait til fall starts and then winter..i'm so ready!! Peace peeps!

My Birthday Weekend

Well another year has quickly passed and I have turned 1 more year. I am now 23 years old. Still young, I know lol. I try not to think of the year i'm gaining but instead I think of all the wisdom and knowledge I've gained this whole year. I thank God for allowing me another year with my family and most of all with my daughter Sofia who was only 7 months when I turned 22 so we still have alot of moments and memories to share together. So..Friday the 24th my cousin Christy invited me to eat dinner at Rancho Viejo (its actually an every Friday deal) and she seemed kinda fishy but idk what she was up to then all of a sudden all the waiters come rushing to our table singing happy birthday to me and I had to wear the hat lol....

it was pretty embarassing but fun at the same time!! We drank a few beers and called it a night bc we had to get up early to go to San Antonio and finish up our fun. So Saturday morning we all took of to New Braunfels first to go float the Comal River, it was lots of fun too. The water was pretty low but it was fun. We got a cooler and filled it up with cold beer and ice. We chilled and talked amongst ourselves and to other groups. The shute was fun too...thats my favorite part. Tony and the cooler got lost for a while but we finally found them, but we lost the toob the cooler was sitting on. Then a stupid ass whi....a female lol...got on my f*ing nerves and I was about to have to handle her when she quickly came to her senses and figured I would've f*cked her UP!!! lol jk it didnt get that bad. Anyways!!!! After that we went and rented our rooms in San Antonio, got ready and left to the riverwalk. We were there for a while and ate dinner at Michelino's..awesome Italian food (our favorite). By the time we finished dinner we were exhausted from the whole day so we went back to our rooms and slept. Sunday morning we went back to the Alamo, the surrounding shops and museums and then we went to the Market Square and watched a few performances. I bought Sofia a really nice Mexican shirt...idk what they're called but its blue lol. Overall, we had lots of fun. We're thinking of going back really soon. I'll post pics up later.

Mexico pics...

Here are a few pics from my trip....the rest are on my myspace page. www.myspace.com/jnacianceno04

My Summer Vacation

Well I'm back..unfortunately...I wish I coulda stayed just a bit longer. I was having too much fun with my family. I was only there 6 days..not even a week and I had a great time. I went with my parents and Sofia. Vic couldn't go because of work. We went to my cousins wedding Saturday and it was a really nice wedding, as expected. She looked so beautiful and her personality and smiles made her look even more beautiful. I have a new cousin!! He's a cool guy. Father's Day we chilled at my grandma's and cooked out, it was great to be able to spend the day with my dad and his dad. Monday...we stayed home and all the family came over and we talked and caught up...I learned how to make flour tortillas (finally huh?). Victor had been bugging me forever about it and my aunt let me make them and they turned out really good....seriously!! lol. Well Tuesday we went to a park that I hadnt been to since my 15era and it really changed ALOT. They had all kinds of new and neat stuff. They had a dinosaur land, they had aztec type of games and attractions, they had big water slides..that were perfect for that day bc it was HOTT!! The safari was still there too, they had a waterfall but it was tooo far, ummm they had a view of the 7 mountains it was beautiful, and so many other things that I cant remember off the top of my head. We got so burnt though...it was worth it. Sofia had a great time. Tuesday night we went to a political meeting...all my family is really into politics and my grandma is the MAIN one. She's a well known person in the town because of her love for politics and fighting for whats right and all that. She was mentioned lots of times in the meetings, she's getting replaced by my aunt lol bc she's getting up there in age and she doesnt feel as strong as she used to...but if you saw the strength she has u'd be surprised. She's a very admirable person. Ummm Wednesday...let me think can't really remember I think we went to the plaza and looked around..and bought some aguas frescas. I swear I havent tasted a better agua than the ones in Huala...not even in Vallehermoso and they have the best elotes en vaso there (vallehermoso). Anyway, Thursday we went to the rio and hung out there. I took some pics of us on the puente colgante...its a hanging bridge that goes over the river...the river was pretty dry this time though but it still looked really nice. The rio further out of town was pretty nice though..I forgot my camera that day though. We had a blast cooking out and jumping in the water. Its a nice place. The water is so clean and nice....refreshing too lol. Thursday night we went to another meeting...you get hooked to those after a while lol. I like debates though and interesting things like that so I guess thats why I'm ok with it. Friday morning we were on our way back home. Boooo!!! hopefully next time I can stay longer. It was fun while it lasted though. I'm sure I forgot so many details but I'm so tired right now I can't think straight. Well peace out!! = )

Hualahuises,Nuevo Leon

Summer time has come around again...and our trip to Huala is back. I thank my parents because ever since we were little kids they've always showed us the importance of knowing who we are and where we come from...and let me tell you I am damn proud!! We've been going every summer for as long as I can remember and my memory goes way back. Not only do I enjoy all the fun we have but also my family which is more important. Seeing my grandparents when we first arrive is ALWAYS the best part...feeling my grandpa's hug get tighter each year just makes me want to be closer and spend all the time I can with him and my grandma's tears just makes my heart feel crushed. And seeing the rest of my family is always great too. But anyways. Every year theres a big party going on...we're a BIG family we take up a pretty big side of the town....so we always have something going on in the summer or winter when we all gather for vacations. This summer one of my cousin's is getting married. My family always makes nice parties so I'm pretty sure we're gonna have a great time. I'll try to take as many pics as I can but I wont promise anything because when I'm having fun I forget where I leave my camera lol. Now I gotta find something to wear, I have plenty of dresses that I've only wore once so I'll pick one out lol. Huala here we come!!

Mother's Day

Well the day we honor our mothers has passed and I had a really good time spending it with my parents and siblings...well my sister Monica was missing but I know our day would've been even better with her. We spent the day at my moms house and my dad being the great man he is cooked for us (momma, nelly and me), I swear he could be a chef if he wanted to. He'll make up his own dishes and omg they turn out so so good. Anyways, he cooked fajitas which isnt difficult at all but his side dishes were fuera de la cadena like Tito says lol. My mom recieved flowers, plants, a watch from me, cards and lots of love. The gift I couldnt wait for her to get was the car my brother in law bought her. He had promised her a car a while back on one of those drunk nights and she thought he was just talking but she knows Jerry better than that because when he says hes gonna do someting its because hes gonna really do it. And he did. Its a used car but its perfect for work and a gas saver. I loved the look on her face when he handed her the keys and the title....priceless. My princess gave me flowers, a card and a gift card. Needless to say, we had a great day with eachother we laughed, cried, remembered great things and just spent time together like the great family we are.

Being a mother...

This blog isn't about how to be a mom or how to do this or that with your kids; its about my own mother, my momma, my best friend. Her name is Julieta. She's usually quiet and shy but full of lots of wisdom and intelligence once she gets to talking, she is always happy, she's a hard worker and full of love. She's the best mom anyone could ever have and I don't just say that because shes my mom but because its true. Shes a woman who had a rough life as a child and teenager but gathered up strength to be a better woman for herself and her daughters, then her future family...which is where my dad, my 2 brothers and I come in. She came to the U.S as a single mother and then she met my dad and him being the wonderful man he is took her in with her two daughters...my sisters Nelly and Monica. They got married and had Tito, me and then Abraham. She's always been a great person and ALWAYS ALWAYS has a big beautiful smile on her face no matter what. She's taught me a lot, whether it be about myself, my finances, my relationships or my daughter. She taught us about respect, manners, loyalty, appreciation, honesty, trust and just everything. She's always been so comprehensive and laid back about things. She's not one of those old fashioned moms who think things should still be the same way they were back then, she doesn't think the man has the "say so" on things that they know are not right and she doesn't think a woman should put up with a man if he's not willing to act like a man...her own experiences made her that way. I guess that's why her and my dad have always gotten along so well because they are both the same and think the same. My dad is also a really great man, but I'll leave that for another time. She's always respected him and done so much for him because he's done the same for her. As you can already tell, I admire my mom alot and love her to death and for those of you who know me very well you guys know that she is my very best friend and I hardly see anyone think of there mom as highly as I see mine. I thank God for her everyday and I cherish every moment I spend with her. She is a cool mom, she's so modern it cracks me up sometimes...she listens to Spanish rock its her favorite music lol but she loves those oldies too and I can see where I get my romanticism from when I see her listening to that music. She's so passionate about everything, she always gives it her all. She loves Gloria Trevi too, so I bought her and myself tickets and we went to go see her with my sister and her husband back in February and she had a BLAST!! That woman is nuts lol (Gloria Trevi), but that will have to be another story too. Me? I absolutely love being a mother, since the first day Sofia was born its like I already knew what to do and how to act. I had many frustrating days but I managed to get through them all with the patience I inherited from my mother lol. Now 16 months later I'm still faced with challenges once in a while but they're not compared to the love I have for my daughter, its like everything just fades because of her. Its fun!! I have so much fun with my silly girl. I love my mommy and I love being one. Happy Mothers day to all of the mothers and mothers to be!! Even if you're not a mommy, we all know what it is to care for a child and give them all of our love so you're pretty close to knowing what its like. : )

Spring

My favorite season. Days of not so hot not so cold weather. I love spring. We bought Sofia her pool already so she can dip in on the hot days. It would be nice to buy a big one but we got too many nosy neighbors lol. I would really like to buy a patio table and chairs but I dont know if we would really use it as much as i'd like. Maybe later. I really want to get started on my flowers and outside decorations but I hardly have time for that. I know Sofia will have so much fun this year. I did some spring cleaning...well I always clean but I finally put alot of things away and re-organized EVERYTHING. i bought some more decorations and all kinds of storage containers and boxes to keep things in place. I cannot stand things that are unorganized and I CANNOT stand a dirty home, especially with my toddler running around trying to stick everything in her mouth. I cant eat, sleep or feel comfortable knowing my house is a mess lol. Besides, Victor would get on my ass...he hates it more than me. I can't wait for the rest of the Spring days that we can spend outside cooking, chilling or just playing with Sofia. Its been so hot already though, I'm almost dreading summer time because I know its gonna really hot. Oh well I'll enjoy it anyway.

Sofias Bautizo

So we got the bautizo done and over with. It was great. The mass was really nice and the actual baptism was too. Sofia was really good throughout the whole thing. So she is officially free of the original sin. Now it is up to us and our new compadres to teach her and guide her through a life with God. And I have faith we will do a good job. The weather was really good too, Im so glad it didnt rain! Our little get together went well, except for one little family emergency but God is the only one who will take care of that. All my family and a few friends joined us in our celebration. The food was awesome everything was sooo good. And I am so thankful for my aunt because she is always helping me so much without even thinking twice about it. I have a wonderful family. Everyone joined us at the most important part which was the mass and I appreciate them very much for that. It meant alot to me. Anywho. All her gifts were sooo cute too. She recieved a Dora the Explorer folding chair, a two piece bathing suit and some beach sandles, a palais royal gift card, a nice bag, her own childrens bible and some money for her acct. God is GREAT!

Poker Nite Thursday's

Thursday. Today like every Thursday is one of those days that Victor really annoys me! Lol. I mean why cant he sit his butt at home? Whats the point in going to his buddies house and coming home stupid drunk? I'm trying to get used to it but I cant it just irritates the shit out of me that he does that. I know that we all need a break once in a while because trust me my Fridays at Rancho are mine lol but thats one night for me, now that hes off Thursday, Friday and Saturday he will take those 3 days. Idk I guess I'm gonna have to slap him around a few times to get him to listen. I think what really irritates me is that he'll tell me so many different lies, small ones but still why bother? Like i'm on my way or i'll be there soon and things like that. Sorry I just had to vent a little lol, I'll just wait for him and surprise him with a punch in the face lol jk.

Planning the bautizo

Sofias bautizo is only 5 days away and I honestly have no clue what I'm gonna do. It started off being a big party with music, food, drinks and alot of fun but then I got to thinkin'...its a sacrament of God not a reason to get drunk and party like many people think. Then my dads first cousin (my 2nd uncle) got diagnosed with cancer and is not doing too well so I knew there was no way my dad would even get near to a party. So our plans now are just a nice dinner at our house with family and close friends to help us celebrate our daughters baptism. BUT....its supposed to rain Saturday so idk if we're still gonna go with our plan. And thats one of the main reasons we havent passed out invites yet...sorry! Regardless of anything though there will be a baptism that day at 12pm even if there isnt a dinner.

My pride and joy...

Sofia Guadalupe is her name. yep my daughter. She was born December 29, 2007. Definitely a gift from God. She wasnt planned or expected but very very welcomed by me, daddy and our loved ones. She's now 16 months and a big girl. Very healthy. She's a little bit of everything. She's silly, very silly. She talks all day long and you wont understand a thing she's trying to say. At night when its time for bed.....still talking lol. She's being potty trained now...how fun!!! NOT. She's a good girl though, she will throw her fits sometimes... but hey what princess doesnt??? Her baptism is coming up this Saturday and I still have no clue what we're gonna do lol. Thats a Mexican for ya. Last minute planners. Anywho. I love my baby. She's so much fun. I love dressing her up. I like trying to fix her hair but the little problem is that she hardly has no hair so its a little difficult to make pony tails and piggy tails and all that fun stuff. I try though. She loves her daddy to death. She cries the minute he steps out of her sight. Its sweet. She loves me too. She always puts her head on me, whether it be my shoulder, my arm, my stomach, legs, whatever is closer to her. I see that as a trust gesture. I hope she can see me as a friend as well as her mommy one day and she can tell me everything and be as close to me as I am to my mother.
