Happy 11th Birthday Carlos!

Today is Carlos's Eleventh Birthday.

I had the perfect pregnancy with Carlos. No morning sickness. I didn't gain weight or wear maternity clothes until my 7^th month. His due date was November 20^th. My water broke that morning (Nov. 20^th) around 6 in the morning. 19 hours later and no epidural, Carlos was born on Nov. 21^st around 1:00 am. I was in love the moment my eyes set on him! He was 9lbs 9 oz and had a head full of hair. It was already down his neck to his shoulders! The nurses couldn't find a cap that fitted his big head so one of the nurses knitted one for himJ. Carlos was a good baby. He slept through the night and entertained himself pretty well when I had stuff to do. He has always loved to snuggle and cuddle up. He has always been a goofball. He likes to laugh and have fun but is also a hard worker at school. Since kindergarten he has always been an A student. He is now a junior librarian and loves it. He likes to play soccer and has been playing in a league (except maybe the last 8 months) since he was 5. A couple years back he was in a karate class and recently has gone back. He likes to play video games and listen to his music. Lincoln Park is his favorite band. He also likes to go out golfing with his dad. Carlos is stubborn (Big Carlos says he gets it from me and I can't disagree) at times but most of the times he is an awesome kid. He has grown up so much and we are so proud of the person he has become. Happy Birthday Baby & Have A Great Year!
