Welcome...Bienvenidos!

hello everyone! thank you for visiting my blog. as a super smart and ultra social toddler I have tons of fun stories and pictures to share of my many adventures.

i have a new bebe brother, his name is noah. most of my stories will probably be with him and the rest of my familia--so whenever i say "us"-- this is who i'm talking about.
we hope you enjoy!

Boys being boys





















My lil brother Noah is getting really big! He's already 4 months old. I try to carry him sometimes but he's pretty heavy, so I still need help.

Our big brother Evan doesn't have that problem. He's a lot of fun to play with. He chases me around and soon he'll start driving me around too. (He already has his drivers' permit and just finished driver's ed.)






My papi is the funnest of all though. He and I play "fumble" and all kinds of other stuff. I'm glad its summer cuz I get to go outside a lot. :)

Wisconsin Fun (aka Noah's 1st roadtrip)

papi and mami took me and noah to the dells for a threedays. we also took some of papi's family from guatemala with us to share in the fun. technically, it was noah's first road trip...but mommy was crammed in the third row jump seats next to me, so she couldn't really take any good pics on the road. but we did get a few good pics at the park...




day one- papi decides to take me on the water slide. as most of you know, I'm a little water phobic on account of my mom losing me to a giant wave in the Pacific (in guatemala) last summer. so anyways, papi decides to take me on this slide, and i'm cool, looking forward to it...but wouldn't you know it, we go down the slide and i get attacked by these fierce splashes thanks to the way papi holds me! so that's all i need, from this point on, i decide i will not be entering the pools without a certain amount of resistance and screaming. not to say, i won't enjoy my pool fun once i settle down---but mami and papi need to learn their lesson! :)



splashing around with terronce & uncle tim.

day two-getting on the kid rides at mt. olympus
this was a spinnin' air balloon

now we're going up in the flying swings !!!!!this is what noah looks like from the swings (middle umbrella, noah is being held by tia chave in a torquoise shirt). pretty little, huh?

a few rides with my friends, the walker bros.

flyin' high with terronce
chuggin' away with terrell
mami also climbs aboard with me

i also learned how to drive a boat on this trip. i must say, I'm a pretty good driver.


and here's proof that noah got to splash around a little bit too. he was wishing he could get on my turtle too.

ahoy matey's! we had dinner at crabbys on our last night.
day 3- i got to go on one last go kart ride with papi before we left the park.
then before heading home, we stopped for a wisconsin duck tour. (a few weeks before our trip there was lots of rain and storms that caused Lake Delton to spill over or something. we still got to go on the wisconsin river, but the tour part that used to be on the delton ended up just being a view of what was left. )
when mami and papi told me we were going to go ride a duck, i expected something different. so i figured i'd show you guys a pic of what "a duck" was, so you wouldn't be confused either.
noah slept on the ride, which was kind of amazing cuz it was really noisy...it sure woke me up

these are my dad's aunts...tia olgita and tia chave the dry land is where lake delton used to be

and right before we get on the road to head home, we take one last pic. by this point, i'm exhausted!

papi's day 2008




for father's day this year, we took papi out for a night on the town. we met up with my tio jimmy and cousin alexx at navy pier and watched "kung fu panda bear movie" with them. it was lots of fun.

before the day ended we made sure papi took a picture with his 3 sons...it took a few shots, but we got a keeper at the end.

Life of the Parties!

there's no shortage of fun in my life. i have a very active social calendar, one party this weekend...2 parties next weekend. its tough work trying to keep it all straight!

Nathan turns 3 with Curious George.




Sofia was the Princess of her party when she turned 3.


My favorite parts are cake and candy (pretty unusual for a kid my age, I know! :} ) When its time for the pinata, my cous' Alexx and I position ourselves in a prime spot so that we can pick fo the best.



i love my cousins very much and for different reasons. Alexx teaches me all kinds of things, and Sofia, well Sofia makes me feel tall
