Hola y Feliz Halloween!!
No goblins here, but we do
have a pumpkin hanging in the window. I think one year we will head back to
Canada for a few weeks in October, have a late Thanksgiving and stick around
for Oct 31 so Max can trick or treat.
Currently 9pm, Max is
asleep and madre is making pizza (oh so good pizza) for mañana. Me? One ojo on
the monitor and one on “It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown”….a classic!!
The day…6am start again.
Moving on from that old story.
Max did have his first
taste of leche de vaca and he had no adverse reactions, so we will continue
this and start some weaning. It seems he is self weaning during the día, but
still LOVES his mid-noche tank ups…the ones that wake up the whole familia, and
leave madre drained in more then one way. Stay tuned for more weaning news!! Ja
ja ja
Good walk around town, but
friggin warm today. No viento made it that way, but as I type, it is a chilly
27,0 grados and I think we will hit 25,0 esta noche.
Max said hola to a ton of
peeps, and we have secured some help from Moises y Samuel. They will meet me at
noon on domingo and will help with loading, unloading and setting up the food
and bevies for the fiesta.
In the kiosko, Max saw one
of his favorite amigas and spent 20 minutes running around the kiosko, chasing
or being chased, and screaming in joy. He worked up a sweat…as did padre who
was chasing him to make sure it was another accident free día.
The niña’s madre was
chatty today and made mention that she had met Bex while I was ill with gripe.
She said madre does not like the AM shift…lol.
This same senora (she is
30’ish but has a niño so you call her a senora to be polite, but I am sure she
would prefer to be called a senorita) chatted me up about us coming to visit
their house.
Now it became jumbled up
in the translation…but Bex may have a new friend now!! Ja ja ja
On the way home, pit stop
at a tienda de plasticos and picked up Max his very own TV remote. Por que?
When he sees us use ours, he just wants to play with it and if we give it to
him and he breaks it…we are screwed.
Ever go to a store and buy
a TV remote for a niño and to be asked what type you want and just reply “the
cheapest”? The look on the hombres face was hilarious.
Two good naps for Max and
a he also had a road trip to Che con madre...hello to some regalo (present) shopping!!
We had an overcast
afternoon and we actually had some showers too. That made for a cool pool time,
but the lil’guy and I toughed it out.
Me? El gimnasio and on the
way I stopped to give Raphael an official fiesta invite, and he was working on
the timing belt of a coche. The owner? A guy I see at el gimnasio and have
chatted up once or twice before. Small town mis amigos, small town.
The first Sunwing flights
from Canada have started arriving so we are seeing some white faces around the
pool. One of the peeps has always been kind enough to bring down some items for
Max and this trip was no different.
He is loaded up on swim
shorts and a few playera, and Bex ordered a few new gorra (hats) for him…just
in time as someone (not me!!) lost the Elmo hat. Having a niño would not be so
expensive if we stopped losing things!! Lol
A good PM rutina and even
snuck in a FT con mis padres while Max was in his tina!!
MISC
No luck on one satellite internet
company…a “rights” issue of having someone in Mexico use the system. Huh?
No luck on ordering some Oakley
sunglasses either!! I tried the US website and even called…they will NOT take a
Cdn cc and send to an American address. Doph. Too bad as the US prices are
cheaper and we have an amigo, who lives in Colorado, coming down in less then a
month. Oh well.
Fotos.
With his favorite playera wrapped around his shoulders...now you see me...
Now you don't!!
Max's new gorra...great picks madre!!
Off for their walk and Max is waving adios to his padre. Yup, he knows muchas palabras de español.
From the walk to el gimnasio.
I was going to blast the Federales for spending big bucks on new Harley's for the whole estado, but I did the research and these are roughly the same price as a Kawasaki.
I talked to the officer who was riding the bike and he was a nice guy who loved Max's hecho en Mexico tattoo!!
If they had only come talk to me before they spent all their hard earned money renovating and then opening the pizza joint.
Rain showers headed our way.
How many niños get picked up from escuela.
Mañana. No sé…stay tuned.
Have a great jueves!!
Marco, Bexico y Max
