We're Back!

We've been busy these past few weeks. And when I finally had a moment to update the blog, the laptop went crazy.

Where did we leave off...

Last month, Mommy and Daddy were fortunate to getaway from everyone (including me!). They spent a night at the Ballard Inn, in Los Olivos--Santa Barbara County to do a little wine tasting and they had a most fabulous dinner at the Ballard Inn and Restaurant. If you are ever in the area, they highly recommend dinner there.
While on their little getaway, I had a sleepover with Lita at Tia Ima and Tio Memo's house. I had so much fun there and can't wait to do it again.

I got my first real boo-boo while getting out of my stroller. It did hurt but I'm a big boy so I only cried for a little bit. But if you ask Lita, she may just have a different story...you know how she likes to exaggerate.
It may not look like much now but after 2 days, you can clearly see...
Tia Chelo came over and cooked a yummy dinner for Cousin Andrew's birthday. And no, he is not 2 years old. We just forgot to get candles and this is the only one we had. Happy Birthday Cousin!
Do you like the walking socks Mom bought me?

So now I get to stroll around everywhere without getting my white socks dirty.

My Dad runs so fast sround the house. It feels like I'm on a roller coaster.

I am Captain Adorable. If you couldn't tell, my bib is my cape.

I fight crime...I mean I like to eat spiders.

One weekend, we celebrated my Lita's birthday at Tia Ima and Tio Memo's house.


We made an awesome Shrimp Boil. We were supposed to eat outside but it was a little chilly for me so we relocated the party to the kitchen.

There was so much food. This was what was leftover.

And everyone was so excited because El Salvador won the soccer game against Mexico.

And I got to practice for my own birthday by digging in to Lita's cake.
And look at me...I am getting into so much trouble now!










Tune in to next week's blog on our Las Vegas trip where I got to meet my other Grandma!

Happy Birthday Tia Ima!


Last Saturday we celebrated my Tia's birthday.


The whole family came to celebrate. We helped to prepare for the big party.

Here I am helping with the balloon strings. (Note the large legs)


Dad BBQed 30 pounds of meat.

While I took a quick nap.


Here I am with my Tia Chelo.


Then, I played with my toys while Diego watched.


He looked bored so...


I decided to share my toy with him.

I sure had a lot of fun seeing all my auntys and uncles. Hope you had a great birthday Tia! I love you very much!


I'm now learning to sit up and crawl. I'm a little lazy so it's been a slow process.


Feel my frustration? (Note the large thighs)


I love tags.


Did I mention I love tags?


Here is my new quirk, back arching. So be careful when you carry me because I may fall out of your arms.

Hey! How'd this picture of my naked bum get here?!


I am also teething again. 2 more teeth up top!

This would explain the need to bite my swing chair...


And the pole...


And even my toes... (Note the muscular arms)

My Cachetes (cheeks)

Need I say more?


I think it's about time to lift up the gate.



On Saturday, we went to Cousin Matthew's birthday party.


I played horsey with Cousin Allie.
And Tio Memo and I chased Diego around.
And Tia Ima's funny faces made me laugh.



And I couldn't figure out why Diego kept barking at the fence.


And on Sunday, we celebrated Mother's Day at my house.



Papa played airplane with me.


And all my cousins took a picture for Lita's "grandkids" frame.


But I couldn't stop staring at Cousin Chris.


Then I spent some time with my Mommy.
And then I had a very cold popsicle for dessert.



Did I mention how cold it was?





The rest of the week was pretty chill.




I played with Dad.

Wanna see my chompers?
