How it all began....

I never realized that Hector Sandoval would be the man that I married, but he made sure to make it a point everyday to make me realize he was the man for me. We began dating sometime around July of 2007, and sometime in November we became pregnant with Alec "Bear" Andon Sandoval.

 I delivered Alec on July 26th, 2008 and things haven't been the same since. Alec was born 5 weeks early due to pre-eclampsia. He was 7lbs 2oz and 18 1/2 inches long. He also had Papa's dimples, which my mom noticed soon after he was born. I have never seen Hector jump out of his seat so fast to see them. I thought that I could never love another human being as much as I love this kid.

Alec has grown up way to fast, but thank goodness I have lots of pictures to remember each and every moment of it. Alec's sports themed first birthday was held at Grandma and Papo's house. He wont remember any of it, but I made sure it was perfect for him.

Alec's 2nd birthday was a little more low key. We again had it at Grandma and Papo's house and it just consisted of close friends and family. He won't remember anything about this birthday party either, but I again tried to make it perfect.

Around his 3rd birthday is when I found the craftiness hidden within. I threw the ultimate Spongebob Square Pants party. We invited everyone, and we all had a blast. We rented a community center to hold the extravaganza so I wouldn't have to clean my house.

We are now caught up on Alec, and all that he has been doing till now. Here's to the wedding of a lifetime...
