Hola mis amigos.

What a GREAT way to end the día con mi hijo!! After madre’s 30 minutes are up, I went in to close the deal. As you all may recall, we are on the no rocking policy and working towards the self sleeping and please oh please, the self soothing.

So after 10 minutes of trying to get Max to settle on his own and with no success, I let him crawl into my lap.

Now, this normally means 10 minutes or so and he will be lights out, but today we spent 15 minutes having our first conversation!!

In his very soft voice, Max would babble some words to me, and I would reply. This continued for the 15 minutes and then it changed into Max making fart noises, blowing raspberries and just being a lil’guy.

A little more babbling and then mid sentence, nothing…Max was lights out. Best time I have ever spent with the little guy as he was falling asleep!!

And on the topic of the lil’guy, it is hard to believe that in less then one year, Max has gone from this….


…to being able to do this. Click HERE to see the video.
  
Awesome.

As for the day? Padre is slowly on the mend. More energia, but is now onto the dry cough…ugh.

I took the AM rutina shift and that started at 630am. By 930am as we were getting ready to go, Max decided that we would nap before his walk. He was quite vocal about it and I was up for a nap so off we went.

Madre had a well deserved sleep in and when we awoke, she took over and you know who finished his siesta. Hey…I am fighting the gripe!! Ja ja ja

Bex and Max spent the day together and prior to his 2nd siesta, the familia went for a nice stroll.

At the panaderia, bakery, we saw this sign.


Translation? Bread of Dead. 

The big celebration is coming up on primero y 2 de noviembre, and the town is getting ready. In the foto above, you can see the orange flower and the candles that are displayed everywhere. Maybe mañana I will give you a Día de los Muertos refresher.

While I was in the bakery ordering the postre y galletas for Max's fiesta, we played "¿dónde está el bebe?" (peek a boo) using the sign in the window.





And this next one is my new screen saver.


Nice day in Huatulco and the zocalo was tranquilo.




When it is time to go, and the lil'guy is pooped, padre steps in.


Pit stop at Gabriels and hola to Daniel.



Dos amigos headed home.


Then while the familia slept, padre relaxed and puttered around. A good siesta for the 2 of them and they went for another walk after the nap and antes alberca time.

Me? I set up for the PM rutina and then off to the pool. The lil’niño loves the water and the new bucket we bought him…vida es buena!!

Great cena…hola to more cerdo…and then the GREAT PM rutina, and you are all caught up.

Mañana…hoping to be well enough for el gimnasio y la playa. I am also going to have to plug in the MJ and call these Canadian satellite internet companies as neither of them have replied to my emails…dumb a**es!!

Have a great viernes!!

Marco, Bexico y Max
