A little window into who I am and what I love. Created for me, my husband, and our kids (and our future selves), this blog acts as a journal, a scrapbook, and photo album.
I trekked up to Idaho Falls/Rexburg this weekend, joining my grandma Mimi and two aunts, along with some cousins. We went to my cousin Annie's wedding. It was such fun for me, and I enjoyed spending time with my grandma, of course. We even shared a room. :) Congratulations to Annie and Brandon...may their life together be long and happy!
I loved seeing all the different people at the airport. While we waited at the gate, I loved to crawl around and try out all the zippers on people's luggage.
I didn't sleep on the flight, just to see how much my mom loved me, but I crashed as soon as we got in the rental car.
Reunited with Dada once again. Boy, was he glad to see me! We walked around Inner Harbor and saw some big ships and submarines. I tried to grab some ducks and seagulls, but they got away. I wanted to eat Dada's sushi, but instead I shared noodles and watermelon with Mama.
Here I am doing "so big!" while looking at the Capitol. You can see the Washington monument there in the background. Let's see, that day we ate Afghan food for lunch (fantastic, by the way), and an ice cream sandwich as we walked around D.C. I flirted with pretty much everyone who looked my way.
Some crazy college guys offered to take the picture so Mama could be in it too. Thanks, dudes.
After seeing the White House and a whole bunch of people in tuxedos and fancy dresses, we drove to the Washington Temple and walked around. I threw up in the car on the way there, so spent the rest of the evening wearing nothing but a diaper. I loved it.
We had a late night dinner in Bethesda, MD, at this charming outdoor restaurant—food from El Salvador. Mama and Dada said the food was sooooo good, and from the way my chicken bones tasted, I believe 'em. I laughed every time the waiter called me "muchacho" and tried to cover me up with a blanket.
On Mother's Day we went to church, where I was sure to give Mama lots of slobbery kisses, then had a nap in the hotel. Dada took us on a lovely car ride along the Susquehanna River to a little town called Havre de Grace where we ate a special Mother's Day dinner at a waterfront restaurant. Daddy got crab cakes and mom got steak. I had my usual: sweet potatoes and rice cereal. Then we took a stroll on the boardwalk.
Here I am back at the pad. I loved this bed, but when the parents were around, I slept in a little crib that Al, the front desk guy, brought up.
Well, that's it! Thanks for letting me tell you about my trip. Who knows, maybe I'll come see YOU next time! :)
I love this photo. I walked into my bedroom to see all three lil punkins staring out the window at the birds in the backyard. Just after finishing a jumping marathon (in minimal clothing, it appears).
This was the same occasion, only 5 minutes later once the sun had gone down...amazing how lighting (or lack thereof) can change a photo! I love seeing my boys' profiles, sweet and innocent.
