Happy Monday to all!!

Hola to our latest blog follower...mi Oom Kees in The Netherlands.

915pm and with Bexico tucked in, mi padre working away on his Mac, and mi madre hanging out with Max…all is well.

It was a good day…

Up early for our midwife appointment. What is one of the first concerns about newborns? Are they putting on enough weight after they lose 7-10% in the first few days?

NOT a problem with Max!! How about a niño who has put on 1 pound and 4 oz since he was born. All is good so says the mid wife!! And the boobie sucking blister on his upper lip? I am told it runs in the family. Lol

After our appointment, Bex y Max went to Chapters to read and watch the crazies, and I had a stint at el gimnasio. Friggin cold, not enough zzz and no work out since Thursday meant today was a tough haul. Not hating…just stating.

I hit up Vital Stats and they looked up our birth certificate info. I guess they forgot to give me a few numbers so I could not check it out myself…doph. Great news…the certificate is ready for pick up in Port Moody and next step is passport!!

Ok….1045pm and the last hour or so has been the “get wired Max to relax” hour. He was doing so well but I think he was overwhelmed by all the love from his abuelo y abuela and that juiced him up.

So…tried a few tricks and settled on a poopie change and a bottle. Yup….a bottle. Today we had him try his first bottle and Bexico left me a few in the fridge. So after warming it up, me and lil’Max had a leche session. It calmed him down, but he has decided not to sleep yet. I think he is waiting to see the sports scores on TV first.

Back to our day. Max had been doing so well with sleeping in the car, but as we left downtown, he hit a fussy spot. Solution? Bexico’s first back seat diaper change…jjst around the corner from Robson Street!!

We all hit Stupid Store and I gave Bexico and break and carried the Max around. We won’t be going back on a Monday at 1pm….not enough cashiers…or cougars to goo goo at Max!! ja ja ja

Mis padres were waiting for us at the condo when we got home and had a nice catch up and they had some excellent Max time.

Tranquilo evening…great dinner…pollo y arroz…eh padre!!
