BeAcH DaYs


My pretty Isabel in the bath tub. She loved that little holder thing... and I loved it even more. I could leave her there and she played all nice for a long time.

This is Frigiliana... very pretty. It was so hot we didn´t last there too long.
Carmen was so tired, as you can see on Fran´s arms, and my mom was in a hurry to get back and watch the game...

Spain is beautiful!

One weekend I escaped to Malaga, I only took Isabel. I went to visit my friend David, from Cadiz. This is his daugther Daniela. They made good friends.
I had a fantastic time with them. The day I go tthere it was David´s b-day, the next it was Nerea´s b-day ( she is my other friend´s May and Boni¨s daughter)... so I went from party to party, and then on Sunday I met the rest of my family at Church.
Patri has the pictures we took there.. she has tons of pictures, in fact.

This is the beach in Torrox, where we stayed. Volcanic sand...not my favorite, like in Cadiz, but it was a smal little place, loaded with Germans...

Evan and I.

Carmen and I.

Patri and I.

Carmen was all day in the water. She was really brave and loved to "swim" with her flotty.
Evan got brave too, and got in as well. It was great too see him get confident and "swim" by himself. He was all proud of himself too.

Isabel didn´t go to the beach very much... for obvious reasons... got sand everywhere....ate it as well... plus I was scared she will get burnt, so I took her this day it was a bit cloudy, and two other times.
She is getting all big, she crawls and she´s starting to climb on things... my baby!!!I love that face!

That´s as much of me you will see in a swimming suit.

Ice cream time. Evry night when we got out for a walk along the beach it was ice cream time. Of course they didn´t forget one day!


They didn´t forget about this either... the guy that run the place got to know us and he gave them rides for free sometimes. After all we were faithful clients:D

This is in Nerja ( beautiful, beautiful place) This is called Balcon de Europa and it is always FULL of people. i was always so paranoid someone would steal my kids...
They are so beautiful!!!

Me... I am so happy I didn´t get any alergic reaction to the sun... I looooooove getting tan :D


Our neighbours... Carmen and Evan had sooooooo much fun with them. They were form Jaen, and Carmen ended up talking with their accent, very cute.... She talks lots of Spanish now and I looooooove she got that southern accent now!

Patri got her this hello kitty earings...she looves them!
She got a surpise package for Evan...and he got thet necklace :D


I got this "matching" rings for my mom, Patru and I. I looooove them!

And my mom got us this earrings... Patri got pink, of course!

So... many more pictures to come, many more videos taken... but all in all...fantastci vacations!!!

Volando voy...volando vengo

Aqui estoy, a las 4 de la tarde sentada escribiendo y comiendome una lata de atun a secas... q poca gracia.... Y para colmo es lo primero q como en todo el dia ( ok, admito haberme zampado un kit kat!)
He estado todo el dia TODO el dia metiendo cosas en cajas. Me ha entrado el estress!!!
Cuento:
Lo primero que he hecho cuando me he levantado es meterme en internet a ver si ya por fin de los por fines tenia el dinero disponible en mi cuenta para comprar los billetes... Y SI!! asi q me compre los billetes para irme a Espanya!!! Y para mi sorpresa me han costado casi $700 mas baratos q lo que me hubieran costado ayer.
Tb me ha llamdo mi suegra esta manyana. Nos vamos a mudar a la casa donde estaban viviendo mis suegros!!! Ellos han encontrado una casita cerquita de donde esta el Templo de Vancouver, alli perdida en el campo. Asi q de lujo. Ya ha ido ella a hablar con el director del cole, que esta al ladito de la casa, para indagar q tal es el cole ese para mi Carmen.
Estas buenas nuevas nos vienen como caidas del cielo. Solo que ahora nos mudamos el 1 de Junio y yo q me creia que iba a estar de relax y no me iba a tocar nada de la mudanza.... pues me toca dejarlo todo TODO listo para el 26 ( el dia antes de irme a Espanya).
En fin... q estoy como loca. De contenta y de estresada... pero mas feliz que una perdiz, amigas.... Q Dios a veces ahoga un poquitin... pero solo aprieta, solo aprieta :D

*** My Girls***

I love seeing Carmen being a little mommy. She loves Isabel so very much and she tells her often. And if Isabel could talk she would tell her too.
I am so happy to have them. Carmen is such a great big sister. She's been reading and writing for the last couple of months. Everybody is so impressed... and I, of course, am really proud!
She is very smart. She memorized her first scripture. John 3:16.
She is the cutest little girl.
She comes to me and tells me that she has a present for me. Then she kisses me and says: LOOOOOOOOOOOve!!
Or I love when she randomly comes and tells me that she loves me.
She is adorable.
Isabel is growing really fast. She's been rolling for a bit now. She's starting to push herself, but she doesn't move forward, just spins in circles :D
She's started to roar... it's really cute, and she laughs all the time... she's such a happy baby.
I have begun the weening process. She is teething and wanted to be on the boob ALL the time. So she is taking the bottle no problem. I only nurse her in the morning and at night.... so my chest is in a little bit of pain sometimes :S
Here are some pictures of my beautiful girls




I caught her saying HELLO!


Carmen being a poser...that's what she does best :D







CUTE!!!
