week 10

This week started out rough as well. I went to the pediatrician on Monday for my 2 month appointment. I was really liking her. She told me I was passing all my tests. I track really well, I focus like a 4 month old, I've gained weight nicely, etc. It was all positive...and then came the needles. I got 5 shots! This is a picture of me after my shots and after my parents had calmed me down. If you think I look pathetic, you should see what my mom looked like. She kept me company crying as well



On Wednesday, mom had to go to work for a meeting. She brought me along to show off. Sleeping on the job:


Sleeping on the dad:


On Saturday we went out to eat in Fremont. I was very tired:


but happy to spend time with my Uncle Huan:

I am 2 months old today

Doing the Cabbage Patch

week 9

This has not been my best week.

It started out fine on Sunday. We went on a train ride in Niles canyon. It was on an old freight train. Daddy said it was awesome. I really don't know because i was nursing the entire time. I also did not like the big train whistle. but I should get many more chances to see the train and scenery as Daddy loved it and now wants to take all our guest with kids (and some without) on the train. My parents forgot to take pictures though.

After the train ride, we headed up to Oakland for a bbq at my good friend Daniela's house. She is also part of the 50% Chilean Club, like I am. There was another little boy there also part of the club. So now we are three. We are soliciting membership though. Just leave a message on teh blog comments and we will consider you...Sebastian, Isabelle, Lucas and Sofia y'all should start local chapters at your residences. Again my parents forgot to take pictures.

On Monday, Dad's car broke down, so that meant that mom and I were carless on Tuesday and Wednesday while his car got fixed. It didn'tr really matter though because i caught my first cold and we stayed close to home. Unfortunately, my mom remembered to take pictures during my illness:



Mom, please take me home and let me sleep. i don't feel well:


Oh, that's better:




Even sick, look how cute I am:


This week I started drooling and playing wth my saliva. I make great saliva bubbles. So this is your official warning. If you hold me, you will get wet...please wear wash-and-wear fabrics

Week 8

hey y'all. This week has had me chillin' way too much:


Mom, I think it is time we stop chillin' and head to the gym. i am dressed and ready to go. And you NEED to go! Don't make me strong arm y ou. Is my right fist threatening?


Look how cute I am! I am not just a bully


and my shoes!


This is the view mom sees 10 times a day after nursing:


And another sleeping picture...this one at the mall

Labor Day Week and Week 7

I hope everyone had a happy Labor Day Weekend and did not labor too much

We spent it in town where it was quite hot. Spent lots of time in the following position in the bedroom as it is the only room with air conditioning


Jimmie's good friend Kriss came to visit. She spent time with us in the bedroom too. We did go out to eat a couple of times:


She also bonded with Elena:



and was overstimulated by the play gym


This was a big week for Elena. We introduced teh bottle and the pacifier. She is still unsure about both of them



Luckily, she received a gift in the mail that she loves. We got our mobile for her bedroom set from Aunt Mary Jo, Mick's aunt. She loves staring at the animals


Lastly, Jimmie took her to work to show her off. Sue spent quite a bit of time having a conversation with her:


That's is all for this week
