Welcome to :
From Zaza’s Heart
This is where I get to pour out the love and joy I feel as I watch my sweet grandson, Noah, grow before my eyes. From the tiniest yawns to the loudest belly laughs, these are the moments I never want to forget.
Here, you’ll find pictures, videos, and stories straight from my heart, his milestones, our memories, and all the messy and divine moments in between.
Love always, Zaza (Michele)
From ZaZa's Heart
Goodbye Four Months, Hello Five
Oh, my sweet Noah,
I have loved every single moment of your four month journey. Watching you grow and discover the world has been such a gift. This month, I got to sing with you and see your little face light up at your favorite songs. You rolled over all by yourself for the very first time and oh, how proud we all were!
You’re not such a big fan of naps anymore, unless of course you’re nestled in somebody’s arms. You always want to be held close, never put down and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
You’ve started noticing books more and more, turning pages like you’re ready to read along. You love them already, and that makes Zaza’s heart so full. I see your eyes sparkle when Miss Rachel sings your favorite parts, and we laugh and move our hands together to the music. When I dance, your whole body gets excited little legs kicking, little arms reaching, like you can’t wait to join me on the dance floor.
You’re grabbing toys now, showing off your strength during tummy time (which you finally enjoy!), and you’re already trying to take off like you’re ready to crawl into the next adventure. You’re so proud of yourself, and I’m so proud of you too.
Goodbye, four months. Thank you for the joy, the cuddles, the music, the books, and the beginnings of so much curiosity. Hello, five months I can’t wait to see what magic you bring.
Forever your Zaza
One last sticky sweet GOODBYE to Noah’s 3rd month of magic
Month 3, you were gooey, giggly, and oh so glorious From icky sticky bubble gum screams to serious soul talks in “goo” and “ga” we saw personality shining through every silly sound.
Noah explored his vocal range like a mini Luciano Pavarotti passionate, powerful, and just the right amount of dramatic
Practiced Superman flights with Daddy…
Had his first outing at the golf course with Mom, Dad, and Tía…
Laughed at barking dogs and started doing le bark himself…
Ignored bottles (because hello playtime with Zaza is top priority)
Mastered Popo’s squats and now uses Zaza’s tummy as his personal leg press
But the BEST moment of all?
We heard his LAUGHTER. Not just little giggles real, beautiful baby belly laughs. And just like that, life got a little brighter.
Happy 4 months today, Noah Aries. You’re music, magic, and mischief in one tiny human.
July has been a lullaby of giggles and songs...
Noah Aries, with a voice kissed by stardust and fire,
has been learning to speak his spark into the world.
We’ve been practicing projection
not just of sound,
but of soul.
Three months of wonder. THREE months + days of wild love.
And every note he sings is a promise:
I’m here, and I’ve got something to say.

Little Noah July Update
Our sweet boy is not a fan of tummy time he'd much rather be snuggled up in someone's arms (even when he’s fast asleep ).
Lately, Noah discovered something very powerful... His voice! Now he knows just how to get our attention loud and clear
And let’s just say… he’d rather play with Zaza than finish that bottle So Mama laid down the rules:
“No Zaza time until the milk is gone!”
(We’re working on it )
Every day is a new adventure with this little love

From Zaza’s Heart : Baby Noah Update
Our little firecracker had his FIRST 4th of July and let me tell you he stole the whole dang show
Not with fireworks … but with that melt your heart smile , his nonstop baby babble , and some serious wiggle moves
Noah’s new stats:
Rolling over like a pro
Skipping bottles “No thanks, I’m busy gotta talk to the ceiling fan and all the angels around me”
Thinks the living room is Coachella for babies
Sleep? Never heard of her. He’s too busy loving life
His vibe? Pure Sun Card energy from the tarot deck joy, warmth, and new adventures every single day
He reminds us all to stay curious, stay happy, and always find the fun in every corner of the house.
And oh, sweet Noah—if hearts could roar, Zaza's would echo with pride. Watching you fight with such fierce grace, I see not just a grandson, but a miracle in motion. Every breath you take is a prayer answered, every tiny grip of your hand wraps around my soul.
Saying my prayers and sweet whispers to the stars, moon, and sun about you, and they seem to shine, illuminate, and warm a little brighter and warmer. To me, you’re not just brave—you’re proof magic exists.
“You Were Never Alone” Noah, From the moment we knew you were coming,“You Were Never Alone” Noah, From the moment we knew you were coming, we prayed for you. And when you arrived so tiny, so perfect, so strong, our world shifted. You were placed under glowing lights, wires gently taped to your body, and monitors humming around you… but all I saw was light. Your light. Those first days in the NICU were hard. We took turns your mama, your daddy, and me making sure you were never alone. Every breath, every tiny bottle, every sleepy blink we were right there. I watched your mama feed you your first bottle, tears in her eyes and courage in her arms. You may not remember it, but I will never forget it. Not one second. Even then, I knew you were here for something beautiful. You were fighting from day one—and sweetheart, you were winning.
Love always, Zaza
