Boston!

We are in Boston this week and are having a wonderful time. We arrived on Friday evening and will stay through Saturday. Ricardo has work meetings every day, but we had a really nice weekend together as a family. My friend Shay was in town with her husband so we had lunch with them on Saturday at one of our very favorite sandwich shops. We strolled around Harvard Square which used to be a very common weekend activity for us. It was so much fun to be in our old neighborhoods with Diego. He loved being out and about and exploring all the new places. On Saturday night we had a babysitter come to the hotel and we went out on a date to celebrate our birthdays since they're both this week. We went to an old favorite of ours in the South End and had a wonderful time.
On Sunday we went to Christ the King Presbyterian Church in Cambridge which we really enjoyed. We love going to churches in different cities and experiencing the different worship styles. The congregation was very welcoming and it was the perfect start to our day. We left Diego in the nursery and when we went to pick him up after the service, we encountered the cutest thing ever. He has a blankie ("colcha") that he sleeps with and that he holds to suck his thumb. We found him sitting cross-legged next to a little girl and they were both holding on to a corner of her pink blankie, sucking their thumbs! I really wish I would've pulled out my camera to take a picture, because it was absolutely priceless!
After church we had a quick slice of pizza for lunch (at Ricardo’s very favorite pizza place) and then headed downtown for a stroll down Newbury St and Commonwealth Ave. We let Diego run loose on Commonwealth and he had a blast! He got to pet doggies, see statues, walk on grass, watch big boys run around and see lots of beautiful trees and flowers. He was so happy!
We are thrilled to be able to live spring all over again. In Atlanta spring has come and gone, but here it is just beginning and it is breathtaking!
I forgot the camera cable at home so I won't be able to share any pictures until our return, but will have lots and lots.
The sun finally broke through today and we had a gorgeous day so Diego and I spent a lot of time walking in the city, what I miss most about our times here.
