January 26 - February 9, 2019 – 4 years 7 months: Barra de Potosí, Mexico, Part 2

















The best quote…. after I had my hair braided with cornrows…

Me:  Te gusta mi pelo así, Kadito?  (Do you like my new hair style Kadito?)
Kadito:  No.
Me:  No? Porque?
Kadito:  Porque mis amigos in Miss Charity's class van a laugh at me.
Me: Porque?
Kadito:  Porque you are so beautiful.

Said to me in the bathroom at Chula Vida, the night of the Super Bowl, January 2019

February 16-28, 2018 - 3 years 7 months



Kadin's art for his Mama…
And Kadin's art for his Abu Baiba.
He was very specific as to who got which painting.
When we go to pick up our milk, Kadito loves checking out the cows who are giving it to us.
That particular cow in the photo, however, is a beef cow grandma and she's HUGE.

I got a used little car bed for Kadito.  We still share a bed, but it's fun to play in and eventually may even be slept in…

First… the cake…
Then, the cream cheese icing…
Feliz Cumpleaños Abu Baiba!!!
(decorated with a bit acai powder mixed with the icing)

And, a video, of Kadin playing with Bucky in the snow.

February 2-15, 2018 – 3 years 7 months – Fun INDOORS!

Sorry, too many photos again, so I had to split the 2-week period (the fortnight, if you will) into 2 posts, again

We baked yummy bread shapes using a recipe in a Spanish Sesame Street recipe book.  Kadin loved it!  And the bread was  actually really good.  We shared it that evening with Franny and Jorie during a salmon dinner.


Completely different day.  After swimming we went to eat chinese food and Kadito is adamant about using the chopsticks.  Look at that face of concentration!

This should have been a video, but I didn't get a second chance and only got a series of stills… Fun in his playroom jumping onto the beanbag.

February 2-15, 2018 – 3 years 7 months – Fun in the SNOW!

We're back!  Lots of snow and Kadin jumps right in and wants to help clear the car off.  



Yay! Snow!  Let's throw it up in the air!  And have it fall on our head… Yay!  



Snow angel.


The snow was so powdery and soft we could run and jump and land it it and then just lay there like we were in a cozy bed. The warm sunshine was nice too.


Mostly, Kadito doesn't walk too far in the vast snowy world, but sometimes he runs off, turns around, and looks at me… You coming, Mama?

February 28 - March 4, 2017 - 2 years 7 months - Chacala, Mexico, 4th week











Can we take him home?!
Digging his teeth into a yummy mango-on-a-stick!  My little "mono salvaje"!
Abuela Baiba took a photo of this and so, of course, Kadin had to grab my phone and take over 40 photos of it.  Baiba told him this was what we were having for dinner that night!  Yum!
Saying "adios" to Abuela Baiba.  :-(
Last day in Mexico, at our fancy place near the airport.

February 16 - 24, 2017 - 2 years 7 months - Chacala, Mexico, 3rd week

Another selfie! 

One of my favorite photos!  Mr. Cutie-Pie, happy as can be playing in the dirt!

Portable bathtub with bubbles! 
Town visit for groceries and bank. 
Kadin helps Concha's grandkids knead the masa for tortillas.




Boat ride up the Tovara River - on the look-out for birds and crocodiles.
