Aaron's New Toy

Aaron's First Solid Food Feeding

A Visit Home

So, as I stated before, David was denied his Visa to visit the U.S. So Aaron and I went alone. It was a good visit. My father had not yet met his grandson so that was exciting and we were able to be there for my father's birthday. Many family members came over to see us and we were able to go to visit other family and friends.
While home Aaron's aunt Johnita (my sister) bought him a Jumperoo. I was so anxious to get back to Mexico and put it together and let Aaron jump away. It was so funny to see him in it. We had to put a pillow under his feet because he couldn't touch the floor. (see video)
I also bought him some rice cereal, his first solid food. He wasn't sure what it was or what it was for, but it didn't take him long to figure it out. By the third day he realized that it was the cure to his hunger.
This week we are hosting the first of our summer groups. Since having Aaron, I haven't done too much in the kitchen. During the Spring I made desserts and now I'm doing desserts and evening kitchen prep. David takes care of the baby at 5 p.m. when he gets off of work and then I go into the kitchen to help get dinner ready for 6 p.m. It's nice to be back in there. I love the kitchen!

The KKK Working at the EOC?

So I looked out my window this morning and wasn't sure it was safe for me to go outside. Why? I saw this man with a white hood over his head. As you all know that has never been a welcomed sight for my people. But, seriously, it was Roldolfo who is a house leader and mechanic here at the Ensenada Outreach Center. He was painting with a sprayer and didn't want to get the paint in his hair and on his face. As soon as I saw him I laughed and thought, "I've got to take a picture of that."
