Once upon a time in a faraway place, there was a Mama of two monkeys. She spent her days at her Marketing job and her nights as a zookeeper at the Esparza Family Zoo. An old friend invited her to check out her blog on Blogspot, and... well, here we are. Ok, so once upon a time wasn't too far into the distant past. Good marketing is sometimes misleading. What are you gonna do?
So here I am, wondering if this will be a project I start and then never return to. Sounds cool now, but turns into a lot of work for a woman without much free time on her hands. I guess we'll just have to wait it out and see if my life is actually interesting enough for my friends to check in and read about it. (That will also be a test of whether or not my friends' lives are interesting enough to keep them too busy to have time to ready about my (possibly) interesting life.)
Still with me? Yes answers are a good sign...
So today is Saturday. Nicholas turns 4 in 4 days. Try explaining this to an (almost) 4 year old. Yesterday it was 5 days, so naturally my (almost) 4 year old spent the morning arguing with me that his birthday is in 5 days, not 4. Of course this is the same child who will tell you that his sister was in my tummy 2 weeks (ahem, 7 months) ago. If I had his sense of time, my boss would have fired me 2 weeks (uh, 2 years) ago.
Isabel is growing like a weed. I hear that's a common symptom of most infants. To be so small, the kid can put away some food. And I'm starting to realize we pay as much for her food as we do for our own. Quite disproportionate, really.
Easter is tomorrow. We have no significant plans made. My mother is not doing her traditional Easter dinner, so the kids and I are just hanging around the house. Carlos has to work, but that's no surprise. I bought a small pack of plastic eggs to fill with coins and hide around the back yard. I think Melissa might come over to watch him find them. Maybe I can convince her to go out for a late lunch/early dinner with us.
Ok, here's my question for the day - in your family, is it custom to fill the eggs with candy, money, or both?
Ta-ta for now!

I love your blog. We don't put anything in the eggs when we hide them. The Easter Bunny brings the candy and or coins.
HAPPY EASTER!!
Woo Hoo! New Mommy Bloggers are awesome. Thanks for joining the ranks - you'll love it! I'm made some amazing contacts. Let me know if you need anything!!! And give the kids and hubby a hug from your OLD friend!
Oh, and candy and coins. The light ones might even have a dollar! Spunky Baby is getting stuffed animal this year (no egg hunt - too young) and Collin is getting a basket (again, no egg hunt - too old). Next year will be fun for us!
