Happy 20 months!

I'm thinking there's a direct connection between weather and picture taking as it seems to be at at an all-time low recently. Gloomy days = less pictures, sunny days = tons of pictures. Or maybe it has to do with a sticky-fingered toddler attacking the lens every time I break out the camera. Nevertheless, things are happening. A huge thing is Paloma's language is advancing at a fast rate in a way that she'll repeat what you say on command as long as it's not too complicated. It's true that she does speak more English than Spanish, but also can switch between some words "chair" and "silla". Things are getting interesting.

Chillin' on the Passeig de Gracia.
Check out this sleeping booty.
Having fun with the iPod Touch. I banned her from using it in the beginning, but I realized the apps can be educational too.
Even though it's so funny, this drives me crazy. Paloma always puts her hands in her jacket pockets. She can't break her falls in time!
Don't call it a milestone anymore - walking with a purpose.
We're still continuing with our Kindermusik classes with a new theme this term: animals. "Moo" is replacing "wow wow" as the favorite animal sound. This montage is actually from Christmastime, but the teacher recently gave it to me. The class is enriching and so much fun: storytelling, music, movement, instruments, interaction with peers and adults, rhythm. We love it!
Making new friends with Cousin Pau at the playground.
Rapping after a busy day.
Acting skills are getting better too. Her conversations now include intermittent fits of giggles.
Taking the Scuttlebug for a spin at the park.
See you soon!
