Happy happy 35 months!

Is it really almost that time? We're less than one month away from the big T-H-R-E-E. Wow!

For the much-celebrated regional holiday of St. Jordi, we went to our local civic center, where they were giving away books to kids who drew a picture. Paloma makes a quick scribble.

She got it! The gently used Catalan version of "Hungry Little Caterpillar" and said artist drawing above her.

She also made a rose and a cute dragon bookmark (with my help ;-)).

I kind of hate these random rides sprinkled throughout the city. Your almost-three-year-old wants to go on them so you can stop and pay for it! But it makes for a cute picture and memory ;-)

The chocolate lovers of the family show off their beards and 'staches.

We have an annual pass to the zoo, which has a nice playground where Paloma and I have gone during the week when it's nice and emmmmmpty.

Can't resist a cousins shot.

Paloma has always thought of size in terms of family. It used to be papi-mommy-baby-sized clouds, cars, leaves, etc. Here she's pointing to her foursome of oatmeal grains as papi-mommy-sister-baby. "It's a family!" she squeals.

We were lucky to have one very warm summer-like Saturday this month. Paloma pooped out in her swim ring on her daddy. We can't wait for summer!!

See you next month when a certain someone reaches a new milestone. Hugs to everyone!

P.S. Should I keep doing monthly posts like this? I know people stop counting in months after age two-ish but I kind of like this format. Maybe I should rename it? Waiting to hear from my thousands of subscribers...
