Random Photos

I can’t think of everything we did this week (along with a regular work-week for me), but here are some random photos…

The 14th was Adlani’s birthday, and we had breakfast for dinner with the Taggarts.  Finding the cupcake store, ordering the cupcakes, and carrying them home on a tray without a box or cover was an adventure in itself.

 

 

One of Adlani’s favorite gifts, from the Taggarts:

We found a cat in front of the cupcake shop:

Norah had a wiggly tooth, but suddenly the tooth next to that one (which was not wiggly) fell out, and then it took about an hour of drama to finally get the wiggly one out.  El Ratoncito Perez brought her 200 pesos, which she promptly spent (plus another 50) on a new bathing suit.

We’ve had several BIG rainstorms (usually at night) plus a storm with some hail.  When it rains, the street at the end of our block becomes a river which leads down to the storm drain that Andrew’s phone fell into.

We found some cool shops, including this one where Aliya fell in love with an elephant which she is desperate to have as her “only birthday present.”  She is my kid.

 

I have not bought anything in this pottery store yet, but it will happen before we leave Mexico.  I love it.

We met a new friend in Parque Juarez and the kids tried out the Mexican elliptical machines.

I took a day off and we spent the day at Xote, a hot spring / water park outside of town.

More fun with the Taggarts before they headed home…

The only time they get along…
