Juan Carlos’ Party Bus

Filed under: Mexico, Kids - Gabriela @ 4:43 pm

Here’s a little somthing funny.  This is the business card of the bus driver from Juan Carlos’s little school:

I would be worried, but lots of families from the US Embassy send their kids there, and I know the Embassy has checked this guy out.

And a question: how are all my friends over at Blogger doing? Has it gotten any better?  I really miss seeing peoples’ pictures next to their comments and I am thinking about going back, but only if things have improved.  Are there the same kind of problems with comments?  Thanks for your imput.

Disturbing? Yes, I think so.

Here’s a picture of our new BBQ grill:

And here’s some of Margarita’s (8 yrs old) and Julio’s (5 yrs old) handiwork that we found in it yesterday:

BABY IN BBQ

Yep, that would be Juan Carlos’ "kiki", baby, pillow and everything he holds near and dear.

A little scary!

To Sleepover or Not to Sleepover

Filed under: Kids, Parenting - Gabriela @ 6:11 pm

Hi everyone.  Welcome to my new little experiment over here at Blogsome.  I am just a little fed up with Blogger at the moment and thought I’d try this out.  Obviously, it is a work in progress as I have done nothing to the site except for sign up for it.  I mean, the dogs are cute and all, but I don’t know if they’ll stay.

Anywho.  I’m just wondering what other mom’s opinions are on sleepovers.  I feel like in this day and age, it’s kind of scary to send your kid off somewhere for more than 12 hours.  Most of the trouble I got into when I was younger was when I was "sleeping" over at a friend’s house.  But, I don’t want my kids to be the freaks that can’t do them either.  Do you say yes to some and continually decline offers from their friends you don’t know as well, or that your not quite sure about the parents?

Please discuss.

The Incredible Growing Shoes

Filed under: Kids - Gabriela @ 1:52 am

Remember my post on Crocs? I mentioned that you could bake your Crocs down to size in the oven. So, this is what I found in the freezer on Saturday (sidenote: check out my Ben and Jerry’s! They have Chunky Monkey here. The joys of Big City life are endless):

Here it is a little closer:
My kids figured since heat = shrinkage (this is where I expect NCS to come up with a clever Seinfeld quote) cool temps must bring about growth.
Crazy kids! :) Got to love ‘em.
