good things

Five things that are making me happy right now:

A new book :: This one comes recommended by the Latin Baby Book Club. Mama Goose is full of nursery rhymes, games, and songs in English and Spanish. I can't wait to share this with our little one.

Capturing and displaying our memories :: by framing and hanging professional photographs of our family that were taken months and months ago. Finally, they've found a home in Miles' room.

Knowing that hair grows back :: and can be cut again...this time by a professional stylist. It only took a week or two for me to realize that the hair cut I gave Miles was a disaster and that he'd need to have it trimmed up by someone who knows what they're doing. Tomorrow is the big day. Thank goodness.

Surprises in the mail :: from a great grandmother to her great grandson. A cozy, ultra-soft fleece blanket to keep him warm. And from an aunt and uncle - a sweet, plush teddy bear with which to play and dream. We love them - thank you!

Looking forward to travel plans :: for a trip to Washington D.C. We can't wait to see our family and friends again. It has been far too long.

About Me

Stubborn, opinionated, academic girl meets athletic, charming, Puerto Rican boy while studying abroad in Santiago de Chile. Falling in love in a foreign country ensues. Travel, study, marry, settle, make a baby. Enter Miles Gabriel. Life with a toddler keeps us busy. We decide to add more chaos to the mix. Another baby is born. Enter Lydia Wynne. Lucky acorns. I have two and I keep them close to my heart. How about you?
