So sorry these pictures are in a wacky order, but I think my mind is in a bit of a wacky order as well. Yesterday we were driving home and Diego kept saying, "biblioteca, mami, bibiloteca mami" (library mami, library mami). I wasn't registering what he was saying and pulled into the driveway before I realized we had to return our books at the library. Where did we end up? The parking lot of the dry cleaners! Yes, having 3 kids just might be making a bit foggy :)




It is very appropriate that he was wearing his spiderman shirt the day he learned to climb the door frames of the house. Elizabeth, I showed him the video of Alex doing this and he LOVES it. He loves to climb all the way to the top, tap his head then inch back down (or jump down if he is over carpet)


Happy boy with adorable chubs!


Last week we kept Hartley and Adeline for one night and then Gwen and Asher joined us for the 2nd night. We had a fun time with the girls and kept busy baking, reading, playing outside, coloring and giggling.

Best buds

As soon as they heard Marco wake up, Hartley and Alexia jumped into his crib. As you can tell, he thought it was great!

The cooking crew. We baked peanut butter cookies from scratch and brownies.

Delicate fingers opening the butter


They had a blast baking together and did great taking turns and working together.

Can you believe this lil' guy is big enough to play in the tupperware cupboard?! He loves it!

I love the joy that this photo captures.

Munchin' on some cantaloupe. He prefers to feed himself now and is eating a variety of foods. Tonight he devoured the vegetable and bean soup I made for dinner. He also loves cheese, chicken, all fruit, cheerios and all beans (pinto, kidney and black are his favorites).

We took care of Deven last weekend so his parents could so some house-hunting in our neighborhood (!) and the kids kept busy digging in the backyard. Yes, that is Alexia's gardening attire! It sure captures that girl.

Today was a busy day and tomorrow will be even busier. Diego starts soccer tomorrow so he is beyond excited!

We made a last minute decision to go out of town for the weekend so Ricardo is taking Friday off of work and we are going to drive to Chattanooga to have a family weekend away. I'll have lots of photos to share next week!
