Ale won two free tickets for Steven Adler concert here in Utah. He was selected by Kber 101 radio station after leaving a comment on their Facebook page on why he deserved to win the tickets.
“Let’s go to the park, vovó!”
Does anyone believe vovó Zete is turning seventy next week?
Bottom line: Bianca is six and heavy!!!
Today we got gifts from titia Carol. She ordered beautiful customized hats for each one of us. Each hat has our own names on it, and they each come in a beautiful beach bag my mom made.
We were supposed to take them (and match) in Mexico. But unfortunately, our family reunion over there to celebrate our mama’s 70th birthday won’t happen.
It turns out Mexico is not a safe place to visit right now. But, we will definitely wear these beautiful hats wherever we decide to go.
Thank you titia Carol. We are so excited to wear them! We are going to look wonderful.
I am so ready for the weekend, specially after working three nights in a row at the hospital.
My plans? Sleep, eat, and play.
One last time before our Orem Recreation Center membership expires.
I was so excited to take the girls to watch Descendants: The musical at Scera last Saturday. That was the first time the girls watched an actual play. They loved it.
Remember when I threw a Descendant’s themed party for Giovanna’s seventh birthday?
After the play, we took pictures with the characters. They are all so young and talented! I wish they’d have let me record a bit of it.
Scout is doing so much better. I am so relieved! I bought a shampoo instead of sand to give him a bath. I thought sand would make him even more itchy.
I washed his tank and toys with warm water and soap, and I let it air dry. I changed his bedding, and gave him fresh water and food.
I sprayed the shampoo all over him, except on his face, then I massaged his tiny, fluffy body. When his fur got wet, I was able to see his skin better, and fortunately it was intact with no scabs on it.
After bathing him, we played and he rolled in his ball for some exercising. He is feeling and acting so much better. I am so happy! I was so scared to lose him.
I told the girls they need to take a better care of him, otherwise we won’t have pets anymore, and won’t be able to get a dog and we move to a house.
I think (hope) they learned a lesson.
Our sweet Scout is not feeling himself. Yesterday he started to make a squeaky sound, like he was crying. It was so sad! I have never heard him make such a sound.
He is also itching a lot, which is making him super uncomfortable and agitated. He is definitely not acting himself. He’s been aggressive and secluded in his little house.
Today I found something that looks like an abscess on the right side of his belly. I am doing a little research to see ointments and solutions I can use to help him before I take him to the vet.
Poor Scouty Boo! We love him so much and it is so sad to see him like this.
Bianca surprised me with some delicious snacks in my purse. A couple of days ago I heard her saying she was preparing some snacks for me to take to work.
Today I found a small container with sliced “bananas” and “strawberries”, and a little wooden spoon. It was the cutest thing. I love she is still my little girl who does things like this.
Please, don’t grow up sweet Bianca.
The girls have been free from homework and other school responsibilities for the past five days due snow make up day and teacher’s compensation days.
We tested her for Covid-19 and it was negative. Testing for Covid got a lot easier since families in the U.S started receiving free at-home tests. Bianca, Ale, and vovó Zete are feeling fine.
For the past several weeks Giovanna has been working on her State report. A while ago she was able to pick an U.S state to learn about and work on a project to be presented on a State Fair at school.
She picked Massachusetts as her state, and I loved it since I was able to help her with information and pictures from when Ale and I lived there.
I feel like we are getting less and less snow falls each year. It is sad. I am not a big fan of snow or winter overall, but sometimes it is fun to go out and play in the white, fluffy snow.
This past weekend we invited Giovi’s friend from school, Eyring, to go swimming with us. We headed to Orem Rec Center and spent a couple of hours there. The girls had a blast.
