On a Happier Note . . .

Sorry to leave you all hanging with the tantrum post for a month.  They're still happening, but most of the time life is just sunny here. 

And, for the 2+ weeks that we were visiting family in Mexico City, Joe gave up on the tantrums completely (in favor of a serious case of mamitis . . . I'm not sure which I prefer). 

Without further ado, here are the highlights of the last month!

Cousins!

On weekends, the lady who owns the corner store near my in-laws' house sets up a trampoline.  5 pesos for half an hour of bouncy fun.  Well worth it.  We made good friends with the neighbor kids another day, when there were 13 kids all packed into said trampoline (this is one of those instances that I'm so glad we don't have the ability to sue people in Mexico with quite the ferocity of the US).  All 13 kids on that trampoline were really good with my kids, watching them, jumping with them, and making sure that things didn't get too rough for them.  I'm highly impressed with my in-laws' neighbors' children!

Clara cuddling up to the Cutest Baby Ever.

Lagunas de Cempoala--we worked hard to find the coolest (as in coldest) places to visit!



Joey's turn at smacking Dulce's piñata.  He didn't do much damage.

Inseperable cousins--makes me wish we lived closer!
