week 46//52 Semana 46/52

Esta semana nos visito San Nicolas que dejo unos regalitos en los zapatos de los chicos. Este senor nunca nos habia visitado antes. Los enanos estuvieron muy contentos. Especialmente Sebastian. Esta semana tambien armamos nuestro arbolito de navidad. hecho de ramas secas y pintado en las calles de Puerto Principe. Todo pelado el pobre, pero despues se veia bonito con todos nuestros adornitos. Sebastian lo disfruto mucho. Auggie disfruto tratando de sacar todos los adornitos del arbol. Sebastian gritaba Noo, Auggie, Nooo!!!!. Al adornito de Yeti que trajimos desde Nepal, Sebastian lo llama oveja. :).

El colegio andaba pidiendo fotos de Sebastian para su identificacion (la persona que lo recoge debe portar la tarjeta de identificacion). Trate de hacerlas caseras y ya veran en las fotos como salio. Lo gracioso era que el chiki no podia estarse quieto y decia Cheesee!! y hacia poses. Fue muy divertido!!!

This week Saint Nicholas visited us, he left some presents on the boys shoes'. This gentleman had never visited us before. Sebastian was very happy. This week, we also put our x-mas tree together. A white tree made out of dry branches and painted white in the streets of Port au Prince. It looked more like a Charlie Brown tree, but after putting all the decorations up it looked ok, even cute :). Sebastian enjoyed this very much, Auggie too, but he was having more fun taking the decorations away from the tree than anything else. Sebastian kept yelling at him: Nooo, Auggie, nooo!!!! The yeti decoration we brought from Nepal, Sebastian calls it a sheep :).

The school was asking for Sebas pictures for an ID card (whoever pick him up from school has to have this card). I tried to made the pictures at home, you can see the results below. The funny part was that Sebastian could not keep a straight face, he was saying cheeseee!!! and posing. It was a lot of fun!!

Week 45/52 // Semana 45/52

Esta semana nos fuimos a la playa con la tia Aleja que vino a visitarnos (pueden creerlo, nuestra amiga vino a Haiti a visitarnos - y a su hermano, pero yo alucino que fue por mi :)). A Alejandra la conocimos en Burundi, en los dias de sol sin ninhos. Hoy nos encontro de a 4 y la pasamos rico con ella. El Domingo, fuimos al 40 aniversario del moviento artistico San Soleil. Tuvimos un picnic tranquilo y disfrutamos de un poco de arte (pinturas, bailes, etc).

This week we went to the Beach with our friend Alejandra who come to visit us (could you believe it, she came to Haiti to visit us!! - and her brother, but who is counting :)). We met Alejandra during our time in Burundi, during sunny days with no children. She found us this time as a family of 4, and we had a nice time together. On Sunday we went to the 40th anniversary of the art movement of Sans Soleil. We had a picnic and enjoyed a little bit of art time (paintings, dances, etc).

Week 44/52 // Semana 44/52

Our time in Virginia went too fast. On Monday ,we went to the Aquarium where Sebas had a blast. I just love how he enjoys looking at animals and discovering new things. Auggie also had a good time. On Tuesday my sister had a get together to celebrate Auggie's first birthday and on Thursday we were together for Thanksgiving.  It was a packed week, but it was very nice to be with family and to see the kids having fun with cousins, uncles, aunts, grandpa, etc.

Nuestra visita a Virginia se fue rapidisimo. El lunes nos fuimos al aquario. Sebastian se la paso bomba. Me encanta como mi enano disfruta tanto de los animales y de descubrir nuevas cosas. Auggie tambien se divirtio en la visita. El martes volvimos a celebrar el cumple de Auggie. Mi hermana organizo una fiestecita para estar todos y celebrar al enano. El jueves nos juntamos de nuevo por el dia de Accion de Gracias. Fue una semana llena de actividades, pero fue lindo estar con la familia y ver a los enanos disfrutar de sus tios, primos, primas, tias, abuelo, etc.
