Simon went to the Bayern v. Wolfsberg game. Apparently it was awesome. Auburn and I stayed home and watched a chick flick.





studying German

This week Auburn went to the doctor for her one year check up. She weighed in at a whopping 8 kilos, which is a little more than 17 pounds. She is such a light weight, only in the 25 percentile. Although I don't know how, because she eats a ton of food! She getting up on her feet more and more but is not really close to walking She has learned how to say "dog" and she points out every dog she sees, which is a lot because we walk everywhere. She also says "baby" and "go", I think the count is about 7 words now. We are getting excited for the big one year birthday! I'll post pictures of the cake. I hope that she makes a huge mess!

Auburn seems to have it all: beauty, grace, intelligence, talent, and seven words to live by!

What marvelous parents you two are!

Really? She's one already?!? I guess she'd have to be. Gianna is already over 8 months.
She IS a lightweight! Gianna weighs the same...17 lbs. She is adorable.

I so wish that we lived closer. I know that Auburn and Kayley would just be the best of friends. She is such a cutie. I've missed you! It's been forever. We really really need to meet online soon or at least start emailing!

Mexico - Mayan ruins II

Simon's parents had to get back to their mission in Mexico City and we continued on our trip.  We saw a lot of ruins, 9 in total.  This is the next post of Mayan ruins.  It was actually great for the kids as well.  They could run around, climb and explore. It was interesting to see the differences at each sight.  The kids had their favorites by the end of the trip.  We also taught them a little bit about Mayan culture. Edzna   These well preserved carvings were great.       Palanque These were probably my favorite ruins.  It is set in the jungle and it felt very peaceful there. It is hard to believe that only 10 percent of the structures are actually uncovered.  The rest are still covered by the jungle. some well preserved carvings waterfalls in the middle of the ruins The Palace   Temple of Inscription   The kids had a great time climbing up and exploring...
