Feeding the ducks!

Look at me! I got to feed the ducks at pond.
It was so much fun.



There were so many ducks. Look there's Rusty!
The one with the green head and brown body!?!
don't worry Mommy couldn't find him either.



I wasn't scared at all. The ducks were even
eating off of my shoe!



Joey liked looking at the ducks too. He would
start yelling because he was so happy.



Then we went to the play ground. We love
swinging on the swings.

Bilibo?!?

It's the coolest toy ever!
Mary (Andrew's mom) got them
and the we just love them.



Mommy just handed us the toys and our
imagination just took over. We were turtles in this picture.



Here I was a wearing a pirate hat.



Then we can spin in them too!



Joey loves them too. He puts all the small ones
in to the big one and spins it around, and just laughs!



Then he hide under them!
They are the coolest toys ever!

Joey's Baptism

This is how our Saturday started,

Mommy thought, the church was

at 10:00am so there we go at 10:00am

and what happens, we are the only one's

there turns out that the Mass for Baptism's

starts at 11:00am. Then when we went

back to church, there was no electricity,

and there were 24 other kids getting baotised!

So it was complete and total Chaos!

But Joey, Mommy said looked very handsome.

I think he looked like a white penguin.

Joey didn't even cry when the priest poured

water on him. He just looked at him with a

frown wondering what he was doing.

Joey was the best behaved baby at the

church that day.

Then he was out cold. He just hung himself

over his Nino Daniel's shoulder.

Here is his Joey with his Nina, Angie. He loves her

and always cries when she leaves.

He loved playing with Javi's hat. He loves hats.

Here is Joey with his Nino Daniel and wife Lisa.

Mommy likes this picture but said that

he's hopefully "not" a future Marine. It would break

her heart.

And where was I? you may wonder, I was exhausted

I went to sleep for most of the party, I didn't even get

cake!

Here they are all together again. even if just for a

moment, since tio Meño leaves back to

North Carolina Tuesday morning.

Our visit to San DIego

There he is, there he is! When
Emma and Michael and me saw tio Javi
we started calling his name, but
he couldn't look at us. I don't know
why but that's what Mommy told me.



He came to say "Hi" to me and at
first I was a little shy because I didn't
recognize him. But then I saw who he
was and I shook his hand.



I guess we all thought that maybe
he had his hair hidden under the
hat that he was wearing, but nope!
His hair is really gone!



This is the "Devil Dog" that they have
in the Marines. His name is Chesty.
He is so "happy-cute!"
I wasn't scared of him at all.



He is an English bulldog and he was
really thirsty.



Here is tio Javi, tio Meño, Chepe
and Betito, all the boys.



After all the celebrations we
went back to the hotel and we were
all so excited to go into the swimming
pool. It was both mine and Joey's first
time in such a big pool.



At first I was scared but then I
was jumping into the pool and
"swimming" It was so much fun
that we didn't want to leave.



Inside the hotel room this was our
favorite spot, under the sink.



Then it was time for the long drive
home, we slept the whole way.
Mommy got us home in like 3 hours,
which was more then enough time for me.

It's coming... it's coming!

The weekend that we have been waiting for, for a
long time! Tommorow we leave for San Diego to
go see Nino! His graduation is on Friday! But we
get to spend the day with him tommorow. To make
things even more exciting, Tio Meño flies in today
from North Carolina to go with us! Mommy and
everybody are so excited. Then on Saturday it's
Joey's much awaited Baptism. We will post the
pictures as soon as our heads stop spinning!



San Diego here we come!!!

My primo Junior's first communion

Here he is, Mommy said he looked so handsome,
I think he looked tired. The truth is the poor
guy has a bad case of Laringitis.



This is his Nino, Alberto. Junior had wanted my nino
Javi to be his nino but since he is not available, he picked
him.



Here he is receiving Eucharist for the first time.



Here is Junior and his family. Tia Olivia, Tio Beto,
Aileen and Michael.



Junior with Betito and chepe.



Emma and Andy! He has gotten a lot bigger now.



Here is Gramma with our poor Junior, we are so glad
he didn't pass out from being in the sunlight for so
long.



And Here we are! I was playing in the water fountain
and didn't want to take a picture, butu Mommy made me.

Aww... the park!

My second favorite place to be.
My first favorite place is gramma's
house.



Look at me! I can climb on the
monkey bars.



It was Joey's favorite place in the park,
The swing, he didn't want to get off.



Andrew went down the slide and
ate dirt, seriously look at his picture
carefully.



This is my happy dance.
