Now that was the lip trembling face of a niño who had just be reminded to NOT put his hands into the bird poo on the banco, then proceeds to almost touch it, before his Poppa reminded him again. The trembling lip came right after that, but after a little chat and a hug, all was well.


Buenos tardes!! Another wacky start to last night's bedtime...30 minutos con madre, 60 minutos con padre (including tears for both of us) and then another 20 minutos con madre. Argh.

But after finally falling asleep, we had a great night that led us into a great día!! Awake at 5am, but 10 minutes of rocking and then the boys slept in until 645am!!

The usual later morning rutina...video, tranquilo time, shorter prowl, huge desayunos and then onto familia swim.

Then it is upstairs for leche and siesta time, and knock on wood, it did not take too long for him to fall asleep...phew!!

Poppa joined in for some of the siesta, and when the boys woke up, it was time for comida and then Poppa hit the gym. It had been a hot and sunny morning, but some clouds moved in during the siesta, and it was a chilly 28,0 grados at 2pm. Brrrr.

Post gym, I ran some errands and then it was home to clean it up, cook la cena as well as grill off the pollo for mañanas playa Mojon fajitas!!

Post comida, the familia went to playa Santa Cruz where there were maybe 1000 peeps prowling the playa. The Mexican vacation period is almost up and then it will be tranquilo time again until Semana Santa, Easter.

They came home and as they were about to walk up the steps to the condo, I heard shrieks of joy from some lil'niños. Max and an amiga were chasing each other around and all the parents were enjoying the show. The niña is almost 2 years old and is the daughter of a Mexicana y Dutchman. We met them here last year as they live in DF and were on vacation.

This year we met the other brother and have spent some time chatting up the Oma, who seems to be here for a longer stay.

After 15 minutes of shrieking, it was time for Max's leche y la cena and dinner was good!! Pollo muslo con arroz!!

Clean up, Madonna dance party, tina time and now bedtime. Onto the fotos.

Lean foto jueves, but Bex took some fotos ayer while at the Cluuuub, so browse on,

Pre-prowl fashion show from the lil'man.





In the zocalo.


At the cluuuub.


Count the Mexicanos looking at Max, trying to figure him out.


Back off...I have a ladel!!


Max has found a juguete, and it looks like the niña behond him is about to say "mio", mine.


Check out the look on Max's face. Niñas...argh!!


Looks like árbitra Bex, referee, is having a chat with the lil'Man.


And ta-da. Max has the juguete and the niña gets to play with Max's camion.


It is not all hard work in the alberca.




But when I am hungry...adios alberca!!


Hmmm...comida, food!!




Spotted driving erratically outside the Oxxo.


Car sick?


Wow...what a difference one night makes!! After Bex's 30 minutos were up, The Whisperer went in and Max didn't say a word. He was pooped out and after holding him in my arms for a few minutes, he was plopped into his cuna...lights out!!

So, at 830pm, Bex finishes up some contract work before our road trip, Max is lights out and Bubba is busy typing away and watching the News too.

Ok, you are all caught up. Mañana? Hopefully our regular AM rutinas and then off to Mojon in the afternoon.

Have a great día y hasta mañana.

Marco, Bexico y Max
