My kids' cousin, Jorgito, came to stay with us for a few days. He just fits right into the family. As soon as he came, we went to a play group, where the host's daughter shows us their garden. Jorgito finds a lady bug!
Just a few pictures to capture his time. My kids can listen to the different countries' music for a good half hour, but people were getting upset they had to wait so long. I don't know why they love the music so much, but Jorgito did too. I had to say his favorite was the big indoor slide.
I have a lot of Pictures with Jorgito and these Tinker Toys. He kept saying "Take my Picture!" He loved them and made many interesting objects. I really liked the simple design. Love his smile.
Great teamwork. Jorgito is moving the crane and the girls are unhooking and directing. Alex looks great as a cop. Watch out Robbers!
Milking the cow and shopping. This girl was so good with Paulina and so professional. She taught her to use a credit card and everything.
In the morning we made smiley face pancakes, but Paulina was the only one who wanted one. Jorgito took his plain with syrup and Alex only wanted eggs. Picky, picky!
Went to the Y. They had some sports events for the kids. Alex is a little green when it comes to games like dodge ball, so luckily she had her cousin to lean on. Too bad she didn't let go of him to have him really get into the game. He was really sweet though. He would get a ball, and give
it to her to throw. Later we all went to the pool!
Alex is going to make a great mom. She just kept making Dexter laugh as she pushed him. It was fun to watch him laugh so hard at her. Dexter likes to play peek-a-boo house.
Jorgito was really into this lion's head is must be because it his namesake. DeLeon- of lion, so is Dexter!
Paulina screamed Melody every time she sees this mural, so thought a picture was in order. Jorgito had a great idea to take a picture of us when he saw the reflection of ourselves outside so I humored him. Good Idea!
Jorgito and his Dad, Tio Rick, joined us for the Fourth of July. This is our first attempt at seeing the fireworks first hand with the whole family. Before we were scared of the traffic and they'd be too tired, but we are more confident this year (at least I was). The green grass was so nice beneath our feet. Love running around. Dexter and I coming back from riding the cars.
After the bounce house/slide, we waited for a while for the next exciting activity. It was a longwait, but Tio Rick has a great way of entertaining the kids, while Byron and I lounged on the grass with Dexter.
Sitting on our blankets waiting for the show. It was spectacular and it was great to see the amazement on the kids faces. Dexter fell asleep after 10 minutes into it, but it was a really fun time and the traffic wasn't bad at all, and we left quickly. YEAH! Used the sparklers at the end until announced not allowed on the grounds. Paulina got a little hurt so didn't want to try anymore. Maybe next year?
The video is the finale of the show!
