Mateo on his tricycle - Mateo en tricyclo

Mateo got a tricycle on Saturday at a neighborhood garage sale. He LOVES it! No harm was done to Mateo during the filming of his tricycle adventures, however when the tricycle was parked in the grass and he was standing next to it, he fell into the handle bar and bit his lower lip. Thankfully, it was a short cry and he was fine. :)

Mateo recibio un tricyclo el sabado que le compramos en una "venta de garage" en nuestro vecendario, LE ENCANTA! Mateo no se cayo ni nada grave mientras sus adventuras en el tricyclo, sino que despues cuando el tricyclo estaba estacionado en el pasto, el se cayo y se mordio el labio de abajo, gracias a Dios, solamente lloraba unos momentos y ya estaba bien. :)

Cupcake Island

Yesterday on the way to the babysitter, I said to Mateo,

"Mateo! Guess where we are going after work today?"

He turned around in his carseat and actually looked at me with a huge smile of anticipation as if to say, "I don't know, Mom! Where?!"

"To get cupcakes!" I responded with glee.

Mateo opened his mouth into a wide open grin and twittered with delight.

Did he know what a cupcake is? I doubt it, but he was so excited! We shared a white cake with light blue frosting cupcake and he fell asleep, certainly from a sugar-induced coma, on the way home.

Here are some pictures from our mom & son cupcake date.

Meekma's

Last Sunday evening, we had dinner at our friends home, Jess & Lisa Meekma. Mateo had a great time playing with their two girls, Sophie and Hannah. Jose joked trying to get Mateo to call Jess "Suegro," which means father-in-law in Spanish.


El domingo pasado, comimos en la casa de nuestros amigos, Jess y Lisa Meekma. Mateo se divertio jugando con las dos hijas Sophie y Hannah. Jose Fernando molestaba tratando convincerle a Mateo llamarle a Jess "suegro."
