Happy Sixteen Months

Life has somehow caught up with me as I'm trying to shuffle around my daily and weekly responsibilities. Now that I have a part-time job teaching, I've recently learned how to create routines around my household chores while still trying to chase around our little munchkin. I'm slowly beginning to feel more order in the house, and it's great. As I'm getting it all together, maybe one of these winter-y days, I'll feel like posting some pictures of the past few months that I've been somewhat absent. But in the meantime, enjoy these photos of Paloma this past month.

Organization means decluttering, including putting away Paloma's old baby toys and gadgets. Fernando tried to see how Paloma fit in her old baby bouncer...she wouldn't have it.
This is more like it. Talking to a buddy while sitting in her toddler-sized chair.
Paloma often sees me drying up random wet spots off the floor. Ooh, I could have a little helper soon.
Our domestic goddess. I took a few attachments off the Swiffer to make a shorter handle. Voila, a kid-sized Swiffer. Oops, missed a spot!
As she is more explorative, she's become a sucker for miniature adult things, like this little lawnmower. Or..maybe I'm talking about myself. The end is nigh. Spain just passed a law to ban smoking in bars, restaurants, including children's playgrounds and outdoor areas of schools and hospitals. I thought this day would never come, seriously. January 2!
We gave up a long time ago on having Fernando put Paloma to sleep because it was nearly impossible. But since I've been working and out of the house, she sometimes wipes out on his chest. Fernando felt like his magic touch has come back. :-)
Stormtroopers came to downtown BCN.
We also took a short flight to Sevilla to visit Paloma's abuelos. We're here!
Paloma searched for abuelo around the airport. Hey kid, get back here!It was beautiful weather in Seville. With an unexpected heat as well.
Ah. Paloma doing her famed "stinky" face.
A neighbor happily lent Paloma a toy stroller and Baby Maria.
Eh, eh,...Luna, keep the paws off Maria!Fernando with cousin Felix and Miss Stinky Face.
See you soon!
