Back to our Barca adventures before the kids are teenagers and I forget what it was like when they were cute and cuddly. During our stay in Barcelona we visited many kid friendly sites such as the Parc Guell,the Aquarium, and the Mountain of Montjuic. I still have a couple more places to share with … Continue reading
I never thought the day would come when Evan would start picking his outfits. After all, he is a very boyish boy and his obsession with cars, trucks, and anything that emits a growling sound has always superseded his care for what’s clothing his body. Lately he has become more aware of the different outfitting … Continue reading
During our trip to Barcelona last summer we knew we wanted to do as the Spanish (and Mexicans like me) do. That meant having dinner late at night, taking the kiddos out past their bedtime and letting them roam around freely enjoying all the city life had to offer. I remember my first time in … Continue reading

Boy #2: Waaahhhhhhhh Today I’m at World Mom’s Blog talking about how different and unique Evan and Joshua are. Join me there and share how different or similar your kids are!
As we were ready to exit the Taman Mini theme park on our last visit Evan noticed an airplane and train and was very adamant about stopping and taking a look. We were all a bit tired but indulged the toddler in his craving for things that roll and fly since we weren’t sure when … Continue reading
I have always said that Indonesia is as diverse as it’s people. With over 17,000 islands, 34 provinces and 238 million inhabitants it is no surprise that its rich culture is not only vast but also varied and that it’s customs and values have become tangible in the food, architecture and palette of colors offered … Continue reading
Our brief stop on the Mediterranean would not have been complete without a visit to the place where all things fishy collide and convene. From previous experiences with both boys we knew Evan loved aquariums since we were in Bangkok and on our visit to Sea World, Indonesia we were proven right. Joshua’s first fish … Continue reading
