Busy, Busy, Busy!!!!

These past few weeks have quite busy for The Lujan Family. We had visitors 2 weeks in a row, a baby shower, and last week we hung out with my sister in-laws who were visiting from Utah and Jon's aunts: Letta and Janette. We also went down south for my grandparents 59th wedding anniversary party. I just want to say Thank you to aunt Letta for taking me to have a surprise pedicure. I've never had one before because I'm a little weirded out about having someone touch my feet. But after this, I surely will not have a problem going back. Not only did I have my toes done but I got a foot and back massage. It was WONDERFUL!!!!!!! Finally, a weekend of rest. But we've had so much fun with everyone and being able to visit with family. Aside from our busy schedule, Maddie has been learning how to spell 3 letter words. Her favorite words right now are: mom, dad, cat, dog, pig and cow. She can spell them on her own and can recognize them in books or her flashcards. She is growing up too fast on us and of course, I'm sad but yet I'm beyond proud of her. Madison is such an amazing and smart little girl. I just love her to pieces!!! She's getting very anxious for the arrival of her sister and more so because we've been going through hundreds of boxes of her old clothes and getting ready to work on her nursery. Although Maddie had a ton of clothes that she only wore about twice and maybe not even that, our new baby doesn't need anything except a few minor things. But since I have a shopping fetish, I can't help myself. Maddie and I have been shopping like crazy and of course, she's been getting new stuff, too. It feels so weird to be shopping for 2 kids. We've even shopped for diapers already because I'm trying to get a head start. We're excited about getting the nursery started. Her room is going to be sage green, pink and a touch of chocolate brown. Jon picked out her bedding and I love it. We'll post pictures when this nursery project is all said and done.
Below are a few pictures that were taken in the last few weeks.

My little smiley face.
Lisa, Ruthann, Angela and Maddie. Thanks again Angela for staying with us. It was nice to have you and you surely made Maddie's day. We miss you! Also, thank you for the awesome baby blanket and the matching burp cloths you made for our new little one. We always enjoy all the homemade goodies. They're the best!!!
Maddie and her Nana (my mom) before leaving to Pappo and Abuelita's surprise party.
My little brother Joseph who looked handsome and sharp.
Here's our funny family portrait. Maddie didn't want to leave the dance floor for the picture so she decided to act like a stinker.
This picture came out blurry but she was shaking her groove thing out there. She loves to sing and dance. I'm a little bummed because I didn't get any pictures of my grandparents or other relatives. During the first hour of our arrival, Maddie slipped and fell outside which resulted in a really bad bloody nose. By the looks of it, we were sure she had a broken nose or would end up with some type of damage. Thank goodness she was alright and just had a minor scrape on her nose. Since we had to leave to get her cleaned up, we missed dinner, speeches that were said for my grandparents and family pictures. But is was nice to visit with everyone.
