This morning I woke up at 5 a.m. and got right to work after sleeping for two days. I baked a cake and had it frosted by 7 a.m. I washed a load of clothes and cleaned the house, even the windows and window sills by 9 a..m. Then Fany brought me baleadas, my favorite breakfast. Yumm!!!
Baleadas are a tortilla that is doughier than a regular tortilla, with your choice of fillings. A basic baleada is beans and cheese. Then you could add eggs, mantequilla, sausage, avocado... Although I rarely eat breakfast I gobbled those suckers down!
Then I took a shower, blew up ballons for Isabela's birthday, and accidentally feel asleep at 11 a.m. Fany knocked on the door at 1 p.m. and found me asleep. Both of us were surprised. But my little nap gave me the energy I needed to have a great afternoon with my friend Ana and her family for Isabela's birthday.
Once again, I took a million awesome photos with no memory card in my camera until after the dinner, cake, and presents, Isa asked to see a picture I took of her. That was when the camera finally told me that there was no memory. I am still really disappointed. I had a photo of her blowing out her number 2 on her cake that I know would have been so cute!
Fany and Laura got a stuffed monkey that Isa loved. She really liked the outfit I bought for her when I was in the US. It's a sweater dress with leggings and it sparkles. It fits Isa's personality perfectly. She seemed to agree.
As we said goodbye I realized how much it breaks my heart not to spend much time with them anymore. We are spending every other Saturday together, but it is not the same as 6 days/week like before. I hate saying good bye to Samuel. I just wanted to smother him in kisses and hugs. Luckily he doesn't mind.
