Candids :)

You love that shopping cart.

At church. You also love going to church!

First day of school. You look adorable. I'm so happy that outfit still fits, because you're dressed EXACTLY like your doll.

Aunt Bebe gave you your very first nail polish. It's clear, but has little pink hearts floting. She did your 20 little fingers and you enjoyed every second of it. I put special scented lotions on your itty-bitty feet and hands. We played SPA. However this is something we will only do in vacation, to make it special. You've had a great summer and a great start of the school year. And your lunches rock so much I had to start a blog just for that. Love, Mommy.

SuMmEr Part 2

Swimming at Aunt Bebe's house. You LOVE it! It is a delight to watch you in water.

With the primos at Panoaya.

Quick visit with Uncle René...

Yup, your grandma actually gave you two chalk and a huge patio. Ahhh... grandmas are quite somethin', aren't they?

You bet. We made it fit. We even filmed you guys in our very own "croc cam". What a summer! I love you!

SuMmEr PiCs... part one.

So far it's been a great summer! You've already been to Acapulco and Hacienda Panoaya and had a blast! You had your first visit to the sea, being pushed by waves you didn't Looove, but the sand you did! You also visited another petting zoo in Hacienda Panoaya and you LOVED IT! The view from our room was beautiful. In fact, we all loved it so much we're going again next week, with your cousins! Busy and lovely summer! There are many pics, but I'll let them speak for themselves.

petting zoo & more...

You LOVED the petting zoo!

Me too! BEST animal EVER! YAY!!!!!

The view from our room at Hacienda Panoaya in Amecameca, beautiful!

Relaxing at home in between trips...

The beach where you played. The ONE day it was calm...

SuMmEr PiCs... many!

Feeding the croc french fries... you're a hoot you silly girl!

Couldn't resist.

At Señor Frogs' Store. Acapulco. I'll let the pics speak for themselves...

Have I told you recently how beautiful you are?

SuMmEr PiCs...

Your mamma bought you this crocodile and you just looooved it!

Being a parent is not being picky about getting down to the last speck of sand...

Hey good lookin'!

Our beautiful, silly, loving girl.

My sweet little one. You have grown up so fast... You are only 2 years 3 months and already reach my hip in height. You'll be tall like your daddy. You are such a chatterbox! (You'll talk like mommy, hee hee). You know 4 poems by heart, about 20 songs in english and spanish. You count up to 20 in spanish and up to 11 in english. You name most colors in both languages. You love dancing and spinning and you LOVE playing "Gala's party" with cake and toy guests.

You had your first official taste of cotton candy, you now say "I have an idea" for EVERYTHING. You are a bit rebellious at times and you have a hard time understanding why we put soooo many limits; but at the risk of sounding like a mother; "you'll thank us someday".

You are the light of my life. You have the self-confidence that I wish I had my first 12 years of age. You are a happy, confident kid. You are blessed, you are loved. Every single cucumber kitty I've cut for you at midnight is worth it 100%! These are your pics for the month:


Hide and seek is one of your favorite games now. Too bad you always yell "I'm he-re!" before we can start lookin'!

You got that little scrape near your eye when you fell at school. You kept telling everyone to look at it. (It's all gone now).

You are just crazy about the hammock in our backyard, and you insist cheetah and other toys go in there as well...

You are soooo silly! And you even call yourself "silly girl"! But most of all, you are ALWAYS smiling. And that's what makes mommy happy.

Relaxing with daddy in the hammock, with a temporary tatoo...

First time at a Merry-go-round. She LOVED it! Pink horsey, mamma!

At our friend Kathy's birthday party for her cute daughter Ximena. She's the one who sells the beautiful bows that I've become such a HUGE fan of, as you can tell by Gala's pics... There are other reasons why I'm in awe of her... Kathy, you rock!

Ok, is this the same gal that was terrified of sand last summer in Wisconsin?

At the church's yard. She loves this one!

Like a true fashionista, she craves stuff with leopard print. I'm so proud!

She helped us with the bread before her daddy's 40's Lobster boil party!

At aunt "Von's" house this weekend, where she had a great time!
