Hola Amigos!
Well, here it is 11:20, and I finally have a few minutes to sit down and write our weekly report! I remembered that it was Tuesday about 2 hours ago, but still had a few chores to do before I started this. It's just a bit busier around here than usual with 2 toddlers (almost 2 and almost 4)! Throw in a couple silly little dogs in the mix and it makes life even more interesting! The boys like to get up at 6AM and have a bowl or two of Cheerios with milk, and another breakfast with the adults at about 9. By then, it is almost time for Aaron's morning nap (Rebecca joined him today!) and some quiet time for David. We changed the schedule a bit last Wednesday when we all went for a ride in the Model A Woody ... first time for David and Aaron in a car without car seats (let alone seat belts!) I think they had a grand time practicing their parade waves! Ryan drove the Model A Pickup, and the Revolution Day princesses rode in back. He had the tough job! (These photos were taken by someone else who had a really nice camera. He chose a sepia / black and white theme for this photo).
Yesterday we went to the zoo in Santiago, which is just the right size for toddlers (small and not too many animals to see). Plus it has a really nice playground structure that the boys enjoyed greatly.
Aaron loves to push the stroller!
The lioness roared really loudly while we were there! She is very pretty in the sunshine... same color hair as Aaron!
We've also walked on the beach and waded in the water and played in the sand and blew bubbles, all things that are hard to do in the Chicago area this time of year. Other things the boys have done, especially Aaron, is find all things greasy ... he loves mechanical things, and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty!
Future mechanic? Could be!!
Let's see.... I got up on this thing all by myself. Can I get down? (Photo taken through a window).
What happens when I push this button, Uncle Ryan?
This is a "Y", Zoey.
As you can see, we have been a bit busy around here! I have had a few quiet moments to add more photos to our November 2013 Picasa album. I've even put captions on a lot of them.
We hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving celebration this week. We're having all our family (that's 7 of us) plus 4 guests. Ben is going to smoke a turkey, and Rebecca and I will add pies and potatoes and all the other goodies that go with a proper Thanksgiving meal.
Hasta la proxima semana,
Tus amigos de Baja,
Harriet, Ben, Ryan, Sam & Zoey, AND Rebecca and Tim, David and Aaron!
