About Me

Maria and I got married August 18, 2007 and nine months later, Felipe arrived. He is the joy, mini-boy of our lives! Although parenthood is more challenging than we actually expected, we enjoy every new experience Felipe presents to us. The sleepless nights we can do without but it's all part of the package and we would not have it any other way! Life has been great for the past five months as we are able to get more sleep under our belts and really enjoy this little guy during all of his/our waking hours! Now three years later, Felipe is beginning to speak in both English and Spanish, is a very active little boy, knows his alphabet and sounds of consonants and vowels, and can count to 100. The milestones move by quickly and we all can't wait for the next!

There's No Business Like Snow Business



We know that Felipe really loves Fall leaves and now we know he loves snow too. Is there any happier a face than Felipe's???

Yup, It Worked



It doesn't hurt to get a little reassurance from the right person (AKA Santa) to get that special gift you've been wishing for.

Hello Santa



Felipe was definitely a good boy this year but just wanted to check in with the jolly old elf himself.....

What do You Want For Christmas?



And the answer is....Felipe!

Like Father/Grandfather, Like Son



In the Fall, raking leaves becomes a full time job on both Zak properties (Massachusetts and Maryland). Here Felipe is getting some early lessons in carrying on the family tradition (It's also a way to see how early Felipe can take on this job for Dave!!) We think a few more years ought to do it...

Lovin' Those Leaves



Felipe has always loved sitting or lying in the raked leaves. It must have a calming affect on him as you can see in the picture. Last year, he just laid flat in the leaves but then again he wasn't walking either, so that may have been the reason....
