Happy Birthday Marc! 17yrs old today! 4-29-10

17 yrs ago I gave birth to Marc Anthony.. I remember this day like the birth happened yesterday. I mean who can forget labor/childbirth anyways!! I got up very early with those labor pains and headed to Fairfax Hospital.. My mom and mother-in-law were with me throughout the entire ordeal. I remember having awesome nurses and that blessing they call an epidural. 13 or so hours of labor later Marc was born at 8:59pm. Ricardo was away at bootcamp, but I was able to call him via American Red Cross and tell him about the birth of our firstborn.. He has been a true blessing for us even though we did become parents a little sooner than we would have liked. Wouldn't change it though, after all that isn't even an option! Some things about Marc..  He loves to have a good time- see below pics! 
He loves shoes (takes after me on that one)
He enjoys going to the lake and river with his friends on the weekends..
He loves baseball. He's going to take up MMA (one of his bday gifts) Mixed Martial Arts.
His love for pets has died down (thankfully.. it was stinking up the house) and as I said earlier the love for pets may have been replaced with the love for shoes. I can handle that!
He's considering UTSA or Texas State- the two colleges he says all his friend's are going to..
Some days he's a headache for us- (those darned teenage yrs!) and other days he's very chill and laid back..
