Well First of all hellos to one and all of our friends and family. Today represents a new start for Candice, Micah and I. First of and foremost our son is having his surgery today. It is so admirable to see a little 10 and ½ month old so calm about going into have a surgery on his um…. Huevos Grandes (Big Eggs). He is actually having his huevecillos (little eggs) worked on so they don’t get so big. Thank God for professional Dr.’s and Nurses. Everyone at Mercy treated us so well. It was amazing to see Micah the little trooper ready to go. We wish him a healthy and quick recovery.

This also is our first blog, we hope that it is a good source of information about our daily life, and our personal reactions to such. I (Shawn) am the main writer with my wife (Candice) and my mom helping to edit today. I would type totally free lance, but my huevos aren’t so grande. You may not know this but I am Hispanic, so I throw in a little bit of Spanish every now and again. Now I am just a beginner so please don’t be offended if I misuse the little Spanish I know. Hopefully Dora the Explorer, and Handy Manny, will kick in as I watch those shows with Micah.
Oh you may not know I am a stay at home Dad. I never expected to be in this position, but it’s one I am cherishing. So much free time on my hands while watching, it really makes this all possible. I’m reminded of Handy Manny, if you don’t know him; you should introduce your young ones to him. Anyway, he has a motorcycle, I love motorcycles, and I have a feeling Micah does too. I just recently got a new bike, and I am sure my writing at times will include information about that, so you motor heads just wait.
Our family is also a Christian family. While not perfect we do the best we can with our faith. We wish (at least I do) that our life story through this blog can give you all an insight into that as well. While that is important to us, we also hope that our life story can be entertaining and enlightening. We hope to talk to you all again tomorrow. But for now, I will say Adios( Good Bye), and Dios los bendiga! (God Bless!)
