Congratulations Michelle and Benny!!! What amazing photos. I am so glad you are documenting your precious boy’s life in such a beautiful way. Keep working with your photographer to capture photos of your growing family. You blink and our children are starting school. You turn around and they are taller than you. Next thing you know they are driving. Soon mine will be off to college. Don’t forget the savings thing.

Love Lucy

Eva I can’t agree with you more. I am brought to tears at least once a day when I look at your brother and our new son. I cannot believe just how very blessed I am to have such a wonderful family. Love you.

Michelle Romo

Melissa,
Just wanted you to know how impressed everyone is with your work. There are so many here in the Valley and others from San Antonio who want you to work with them because of what they have seen of our little peanut. Thanks again for all your help capturing our little one!

Jennifer Gonzales

Everthing I ever heard about being a grandma is true. I never knew what a wonderful feeling it would be. I can’t express how much I love you my grandbaby. All the feelings I had when I had your Mommie are there totally and completely the same and even more. We thank God for the precious Gift we have received with you coming into our family. We were not complete before you were born. I know you were chosen for Mommie and Daddy because they are very special and you are their special little angel from heaven. Love Grandma

Michelle and Benny,
I cannot express how stunning your lil man is in the pics….. I absolutely love him! Michelle, the one with you and your mini Benny, is just perfect! I am sooooo have and soo proud of you guys! You have certainly outdone yourselves!! Love you all and cannot wait to see more of our newest member of society!

Michelle Romo

Hello All,

Just wanted to let you know that time really does fly really quickly when you have a little one…Little Benny has been having tummy problems for the past day so yesterday and last night were really rough. He is doing better this morning, but has decided that he needs some space. He doesn’t want Mama’s arms right now. The little man has decided some independence is the appropriate topper for getting over a belly ache. Mommy really hopes this is a passing phase. It would just kill me if he didn’t want to be treated like a baby anymore. Guess we’ll see. I will let you know if the cord has really been cut for good 🙂

Grandpa Montalvo

Here’s my second attempt to post a Comment to both Benny & Michelle Romo:
The pictures are absolutely beautiful. I could not be more excited at being a Grandpa than right now as I take in the pictures. The love that you both have for our first grandbaby is apparent by all means and your
expression of love and commitment for Baby B is in full force. Things will definitely progress through each day of taking care of our newest
member of the family. The power of God has been shown to all of us in
your son. May God keep you both in his love and protection as you raise
Baby Benny.

Damarys

Ahhh, he is so adorable! If wish ya’ll the bestof luck, miss ya!

michelle romo

seems like my little bean is not ready for full independence just yet (thank God). we spent a good part of the evening together with him in my arms. btw little benny says prayers at night with mommy. he focuses really intently on the words. he’s such a good boy.

michelle

michelle romo

I am such a lucky woman! It feels so wonderful to have former students posting messaages on this blog. sure makes me feel like i’ve done something right. love you damarys, and have a fun,safe spring break.

michelle romo

Any advice from anyone on burping a tough case?
michelle

Tom Shepherd

Michelle and Benito—-Congrats!!!

Job well done.

Beni looks adorable.

Michelle, I really like that first photo with him in your hands–it gives a great perspective of how small a baby is. Beni will grow sooo quickly.

Enjoy every minute—photos, video and notes. It all goes too quickly.

I am sure grandma and grandpa are equally proud.

As far as burping, ours always did best when we would sit them up. I would sit them sideways on my thigh. Then, place the palm of one hand on their tummy and support the head with my thumb and 1st finger. That way baby is leaning into your hand. Then pat the back with the other. Always worked for mine–hope that helps.

Hhmmmm…maybe a little brother or sister to keep him busy???

Tom

Linda Camacho

Absolutely adorable!!!! Thanks for sharing….simply precious Congratulations!!!!!!

Congratulations new mom & dad! Welcome to the great world dear lil Benny. Remember, nap times are good. For mom too.

michelle

Dear Tom,
Let’s just slow down a little. I think there is a learning curve that has to be overcome before thinking about another one. Ok, you caught me, I hope we do have another one soon. Maybe a little sister for the big brother?

michelle

Hello All!
It is hard to believe that a month has passed since the little peanut came into our lives. All the sleepness nights and diaper changes seem to meld into one another 🙂 He is absolutely amazing. It is hard not to cry everytime I look at him and witness a miracle first hand. Benny and I are so incredibly blessed.

michelle

Our little man sure has grown! He now weighs 8 lbs 10 oz! Guess all those hours of mommy feeding him are really making a difference! He is very healthy.

michelle

Dear Val,
Thank you for all your advice. I cannot tell you how much it means to me to be able to ask questions and have someone give honest answers. I really do think we should write books about mommyhood!

michelle

Vicki
The gift of lullabies was a wonderful idea! I have already started playing them for him at night when we are putting him to sleep. Those Disney tunes sure do pull at the heartstrings. It is hard for me to get through them without shedding a tear. I think it’s an amazing idea to put these songs in their sleepy time plan so that later they will recognize them as nap or bedtime. Thanks for the advice.

michelle

Dear Mom,
I cannot tell you how much I appreciate all the help you have given me these last weeks. It is amazing to have an extra set of loving arms for Baby Benny and me. You are a Godsend. Moms like you are not easy to come by. Benny and I are so grateful. We are so blessed to have you here for us physically, emotionally, and spiritually. You really have lifted my spirit when I needed it most. Thank you, love you.

Michelle

Baby Benny

Dear Popo and Momo,
I cannot wait to come and see you. I have heard so much about you and am so excited to go to San Antonio and be with you. I already have my Spurs jersey! I can’t wait to watch games with you Momo. Popo, maybe we can hang out in the back bedroom and watch the Sopranos together–Mommy says you have to cover my ears during the really bad parts 🙂 I hope to see you both soon. Love and hugs.

Baby Benny

Baby Benny

Aunt Erma,
I was so excited to see a message from you. I am glad you were able to sneak a peek at me online. Can you believe I am only a month old and I have already had a photo shoot and been placed online! I am going to rule the world someday. Ok, guess I should learn how to walk first! Sending love your way.

Baby Benny

Michelle

Linda R,
Thank you so much for the kind words about the photos. I am so excited for you…grandbaby on the way! I hope she works with Melissa. She is an amazing photographer and a wonderful person. Please let Melissa know you found her through us. She always appreciates knowing her clients love her enough to recommend her to others. Good luck with the baby and let us know how we can help!

Michelle

Our child is brilliant! He actually rolled himself over the other night. I put him on his belly and he rolled over all by himself! I thought is was a fluke until he did it three more times. Benny actually caught it on tape! Amazing!

Good Sunday Morning All!
We are having a wonderful day. Little Benny Boy is content after having several days of tummy problems. Gripe water is the thing to use for a colicky baby! He is growing like mad and changing everyday. Hope all are well. God bless.
