Buenos noches!!

835pm…Max is asleep, madre is at work in her oficina and I am updating you while keeping an eye on the monitor and one on the Global News.

Regular día with the addition of Max getting a vacuna at the hospital.

The nurse who gives the shots starts at 8am and it is recommended to be there at 730am to cue up. Well….Max was still eating desayunos at 745am so we arrived at 815 and were given number #11…doph.

Max prowled around for a while, saying hola to lil’people with his trademark “head tap” and even made his way into the administration oficina.

He banged on a door and the secretary came out, scooped him up and showed him to the bosses!!

Max became bored with the hospital and madre took him to the camioneta so he could play and lucky us that it was only 2 hours before Max’s number was called.

We thought Max was going to get 3 shots, but today he was given only his flu shot and we will return in late diciembre for his 2nd flu shot as well as 2 others.

How did Max handle the needle into his thigh? He winced for a second, made a yelp and then was a-ok!! The lil’guy is such a trooper!!

Ok, what else? I made it to the gym and the familia had some fun time at playa Santa Cruz.

Possible big news? We had an ah-ha moment late last night and are going back to the drawing board with our Mojon plans.

The change? Make Mojon a GREAT place to spend a few days a week there, but keep our condo in La Crucecita. Por que? Because we can save $$ by not having to do things like build a pool or buy a washer and dryer.

We have the pool at CP, as well as the washer y dryer and at Mojon if we want to take a dip...hola to the oceano and there is even a 1/2 size Olympic pool up the street from our lot.

We will scrap the 3rd floor bedroom and baño…saving $$, and when peeps come to visit us, they can stay in either our condo…or our beachfront casa.

More upside? We had scrapped the rental in version #1, but with the new plan, we could always rent the casa and stay in the condo…we might be back in the rental business!!

So, what is next? Mañana I have a meet with Roman and I will see what a new set of plans will set us back, and what he thinks our new idea will cost. Also going to hit him up on cost reduction ideas…who wants to spend $26k US on a solar system?

Only a few fotos today…the vacunas put us behind schedule.

Max's new silla...Kow.


Max watching padre head to el gimnasio.


Did I mention that we had to turn the gate around because Max figured out how to raise the lock bar and the door would come crashing down? Oh he is one smart niño!!

There was this huge camion full of oranges that were for sale. Here a niño is helping his padre by getting the bolsas ready to fill.


Miau. The other night this gato was up a tree watching the bats circle it.


Have a great martes!!

Marco, Bexico y Max

He's just a lil'guy, he's just a lil'guy, he's just a lil'guy....

Buenos noches and welcome to a día we do not want a repeat of. 

We LOVE the lil'guy as he makes us soooo happy...but not sure what was up with El Diablo today.

Max was up at 5am and would not go back to sleep. He did not like his breakfast. His first nap only lasted 30 minutes before he decided that was enough. And due to the short nap, he was cranky at the pool, cranky with me before la cena and then cranky during his walk con madre.

What a change from yesterday...and since he cannot tell us why, who knows what is causing this.

So, we take a deep breath, count to 10 and smile for the lil'guy, because he is just that, a lil'guy.

Some peeps would deem this a tragic día...no fotos, no football and no french fries!!

We did have a short trip to playa Chahue where the olas were big and they made Max's eyes big. He was not a fan of the waves and let us know that by clinging to madre's leg. He was brave and did venture close a few times, but currently he is more of a Mojon o playa Santa Cruz niño.

Off to bed early and we are off to get Max's vacunas in the morning. Doph.

Have a great lunes.

Marco, Bexico y Max...El Diablo
