UPDATED
Hola y Buenos días.
925am and Max is laying
next to me, sucking away on his manos and just enjoying life. Had a great
walk…but that is today’s news.
Ayer?
Too pooped at end of the
day, so had to postpone the post. But here it is.
Bexico had the AM shift,
after having gone to bed early, she felt rested and took Max out for a stroll.
Most of our days really
center around only a few things, with Max obviously being the priority. Ayer
was no different as we took turns keeping him occupied, happy, clean, fed and
rested.
We are fairly sure we are
entering another chapter of his life…teething. He is wailing away on his
teethers, drooling, talking up a storm and seems to be a bit (hee x4) less
chillaxed. We notice that in the car when he used to love it and/or fall
asleep, and now he needs some extra attention, which we have no problem
supplying!!
Bex tells me I had a
mistake in the blog a few days ago. Just in case…some clarica.
Hoy, today, Max is 15
weeks old. I think somewhere I said 13. So we are closing in on 4 meses!! Wow.
After next week we will get Max (and ourselves) prepared for his 4 month cita de pediatra and his 4 month vacuna. How exciting.
Long and short of the
day…el gimnasio and Mojon.
Had a great time at the
gym, worked out with Fermin. We actually showed each other some exercises and
had a good chat. As a taxista, his ingles is very good and he likes to use it
with me.
Here is Fermin, typical
Mexicano who smiles ALL the time…until the camera comes out.
And the rest of the around
town fotos.
Darn Tamarindo!!
Hard working hombre shaving his newly purchased bloque de hielo.
A madre y dos niños, returning from escuela
Meow, meow, meow?
I often see this hombre riding his bici around town. He always has some items attached to the back of the bike, I think they are bed spreads and/or table clothes. Not sure if he is selling them?
Today he stopped in the parque and pulled out...
A papaya to eat for his comida.

After the gym, I bolted home and
we headed to Mojon where we had a great time. A little windy, but that just
meant no sombrilla for Max’s walk.
Best part of the Mojon
day? Bexico brought her board and had a great time recalling how to surf and
practicing how to get up on the board.
Not the best olas, but a
good day to start. One BIG smile on her face!!
Mojon fotos.
Looking towards the western headland....low tide as well.
Bex y Max on their walk.
And two 1 year old perroitos. Here they are curious what is making the noises from inside the stroller.
And then they just lounged for a while.
We are fairly certain we know the story about the puppies. First off, the black one is the smaller hermano of the other puppy. And he takes some brotherly abuse, mainly a lot of nips on the butt, legs and ears.
We think we saw these puppies when they were almost new born. We had been driving down to the playa and saw these 3 or 4 puppies staring out from the brush. We stopped and took some fotos (I could not find them amongst the 11,000 that I have) and just as we were about to continue onto the playa, I saw a puppy "sleeping" on the side of the road.
Ugh. Well I pull out our small shovel and proceed to give the puppy a proper burial, when we are sure the brown puppy in the fotos above, gave us a few growls. I remember him looking sad and protective in regards to the sibling we were taking care of.
And that is the Mojon perroito story.
We hung out for several
hours and Max was great. We hit the road around 430pm, picking up 2 locals
walking back to the carretera. As the truck is full, they stand on the running
boards and hang onto the roof rack.
Max was a little noisier
on the way home, so Bex sat in the back with him and as he munched and sucked
on her finger, he quieted down and actually fell asleep.
Copalita? Wave through on
the way to Mojon…crusty soldier on the way back. We have no problem stopping
and showing them our FM3, but come on…crack a smile and maybe offer an hola?
Stop at Che…hola to real
leche!! Phew.
Home and the routine
started with unpacking, a pool shower and then the 6pm portion…all dedicated to
Max.
Good dinner…pollo can
arroz…and then Bex hit the oficina and I watched some tube and read some on
line periódico.
And that mis amigos, was
our jueves.
saludos
