LA moms, if you were a Bold Brisk flavor....which one would you be? 

Lipton Brisk Sweet Iced Tea

Lipton Brisk Mango Iced Tea

Lipton Brisk Ginseng Iced Green Tea

Lipton Brisk Raspberry Iced Tea

I would definitely be a Lipton Brisk Raspberry Iced Tea, because I love the word Raspberry in Spanish... Frambuesa.

canciones de las princesas (a giveaway)

Miss Audrey and I have been listening (a whole lot lately) to the newly Disney released album Canciones de las Princesas which features the best songs from all our favorite princess films in Español.  Disney sent us a copy along with a copy of Canta y Cuenta: La Sirenita  (Songs and Story: The Little Mermaid) and a princess party kit (pictures soon).  

I seriously can't tell you how much I adore Disney for their huge effort in making all their films and music available in Spanish. I have to admit I get a little lazy or forget to work with her on her Spanish and having popular films and music for her is fabulous and so helpful.  Learning Spanish is whole lot funner of Audrey knowing her favorite princess sings in Spanish too! All the songs are perfectly sung by popular and well known Latin artists. 

Lyrics are included with the album, so I have been memorizing the songs to make sure we get all the words right. Singing these songs is the best isn't it?

The Canta y Cuenta (Songs and Story) cd's are great also. They include songs and the full narrated story. Listening to audiobooks on long car journeys is something I need to do more of with the kids. Riding in the car is a great time to take advantage of audiobooks and stories.

The Giveaway

I was sent one copy of Canciones de la Princesas to giveaway to one of you! Leave me a comment telling me your favorite princess or anything you'd like. I'll pick one of you (US only) by random on April 17 at midnight...and then contact you (please make sure your email is included if not in your profile) to send this awesome cd so you can sing along with your princesa too!

Sometimes it's the simple things... feeling fancy while drinking your water, walking around the house in warm socks, writing down your thoughts in a pretty book, new nail polish, listening to Christmas music, a bracelet, a soft chemise, some chocolate covered popcorn...

Amaral

is on my playlist right now.  I'm running more these days... a new running partner, Max, is my motivation. 

So tell me... who's on your playlist?

For Mothers Day

A couple of weeks ago... Baby Einstein sent Audrey some of their new Discovery Kits.  They were really nice with their shipment, so I took some to work and shared with a couple of co workers (new moms to toddlers) who all had good things to say...like how much they got done while baby was busy.

Audrey has enjoyed the kits, specially the cd's that accompany.  

I love to hear her sing, and see her dance (and really need to video tape more often).  

She makes me feel so alive. 

Mother's Day is near, a special day, I love... to get gifts and not get any older!

If you are looking for something special to do for a dear friend....

fill a basket or gift bag

with a lovely colored nail polish

some yummy tea bags...

and something to keep the little one busy while mom sips on tea and does her nails. 

Something to keep them singing and dancing. 

*Baby Einstein sent kits for Audrey, we shared with friends, and Audrey really does enjoy them. 

Some love today.....

Abrazos!

She & Him - Thieves from Merge Records on Vimeo.

 This music has been on my running mix lately.  It makes me happy.

Drummin to Mariachi

The end of the year dance festival. 

A mariachi number to represent his Latino side. 

And his rock band performance.  

He is a WHOLE lot mixed into one.  

Sister Bear danced to his beats. 

And I was proud.
