I don't have a picture, but I just had to share that Lucia has started to smile and coo. We've never had a baby that does so at 4 weeks so I'm amazed. And it's not just one of those fluke smiles, she has done it consistently today and I just can't get enough! It's way tooooo cute!

Magazines in the mail!

Waiting on his buddy, Jack to arrive.

This has been our first week without Ricardo and we're doing well.  I went to Trader Joes with all the kids on Tuesday and they did so well.  They took turns pushing Lucia in the snap n go and I pushed my cart.  I let them go off to do their rounds (get a sample, get crackers, etc) and Diego was in charge of pushing Lucia when they were out of my sight. I was so grateful for their cooperative and joyful attitudes.  
On Tuesday we had a visit from Stephanie and her two boys and Lina and her two girls.  Lina stayed for lunch and Alexia loved our house being full of wee ones!
Yesterday Christy and her kids came for tea in the morning and then Tia Paty and Caitlin came for lunch in the afternoon.  Ricardo was concerned about so many visitors and me not napping, but I've felt ok and the kids have so enjoyed all the fun!  
Lucia is doing amazing at night which is the very reason I can handle a few days without napping.  She usually goes to bed around 11:00 (that's the only hard part-she likes to be held and cluster feed from 7:00 to 11:00) and then wakes around 3:30 and again around 6:00.
It's 4:40a right now and she's just now falling asleep in my arms so back to bed/crib we go...!

Look, "no hands!"

Cachetona!

Working with daddy

We had such a wonderful weekend!  Ricardo let me sleep in Saturday morning and took the kids to Goldbergs for breakfast.  We hung out at home, Alexia and I ran out to do a couple of errands (while Lucia was napping), we had lunch at home and then headed to the High Museum at 2;00.  It was our first outing as a family of 6!  We had so much fun and I loved being able to join the family for a special afternoon. As we were enjoying the artwork, Alexia said "Looking at art is so much better than watching videos!". We spent a couple of hours there and then headed home for pizza movie night.  Fun times!
