Blue eyes

we still can't tell if his blue eyes will stay or not...

So many choices

But he could not find breast milk anywhere on the menu

Exhausted elf

The day after Christmas this little elf got to sleep in a bit...

We miss you, Artis

Vivi and Alessandro were sad that Artis was not able to come to Mexico for the holidays...

Risky business

Ale has some dance moves that might put even Tom Cruise to shame!

007

Daniel Craig, watch out, Ale is taking hints on how to become the next, suave James Bond.

Before dinner

We posed in front of the fireplace for a few beautiful family photos!

Jingle Bells!

Here he is singing some Christmas carols at the restaurant!

Christmas eve

Some Elf like attire for Christmas eve seemed appropriate

It doesn't matter

He can wear stripes, spots, solids, anything and he still looks super cute!

Bathing in Mexico

Don't be fooled, it was quite cold in Mexico. No sun tanning or hanging on the beach (we are in the middle of the Chihuahuan desert). Alessandro took a bath in a tub slightly smaller than his one here at home...

La Prima Baby

Casi se nos olvidaba poner esta foto de nuestra querida prima!

Meet the family!

La Tia Chelo y Tio Fortes, ah, que lindo!

La Prima Gabriela, que bien lo duerme.

A la Prima Priscila se le hizo mas dificil acomodarlo al principio. "Mas pierna"

La Prima Pau ya se va a casar! Esperemos mas primitos en el futuro!

La Primita Natalia!

El Tio Luis con en toque magico.



A la Tia Lupe le veo los ojos de nueva abuelita, ya que el Primo Fabian se va a casar!

La Tia Martha lo llevo muy comodo!

La Prima Valeria no quizo mostrar la cara para la foto.

La Prima Nancy!

Alessandro sandwich entre primos Lachito y Lacho grande









El Primo Edgar estuvo muy emocionado en conocer al pequeno Alessandro!

Mexico for the holidays!

Hooray! Alessandro is in Mexico visiting all of Abuela´s family for the holidays! Unfortunately, Mom and Dad forgot the cable to download pics to keep everybody updated... Stay tuned for updated pics when we all get home on the 28th!

Merry Christmas

Ale is loving all of his out-of-town visitors

Heather temporarily counts as an "out-of towner." We are happy to be reclaiming her from the Northwest.

Kapi, it appears that your man, Avi, is ready for daddy-hood. He put Ale to sleep twice today! Two points!

Rachel is definitely ready for babies. Just look at that possessive grip and body language.

"MINE"

I think Unlce Will is not too far from daddy-hood, we are just waiting for him to move back to Albuquerque...

Meredith should also probably move back to Albuquerque, if it is not too big a city... Zoe is working on finishing school and on her other half...

Nick is working on finding that other half.

Gracias, Tio Pete

for the great pics that your sweet camera took!

His first haircut!!!

... in 3 years ... Who is that guy?

Abue back in action!

Despite her painful back, Abue has found new ways to bounce the baby!

Good Lookin'

I still must say, he is one good lookin' baby!!!

Back from NYC

We were all happy to have Auntie Lila back from her week trip in chilly New York!

H n B

Harris and Bekah came back to see Ale after 5 weeks of absence... Wow, how time flies!

Christmas photo!!!

The cousins got together for a

quick pose under the Xmas tree! Alessandro was the least cooperative...

Tante Justine!

Tante Justine finally got to visit little Alessandro, even if it was just for a short while.
Sorry, guys, about the "red-eye"

Almost sleeping

Ale finds himself in this spot frequently... Almost sleeping

The Dog Whisperer

Ale can even put the dogs to sleep...

Lovely Lila

So sweet, we miss her when she's gone...

Frog Prince

Who wouldn't kiss

this frog prince?

Cradle robbing

Ruby Simpson, a bit his senior, is making early claims on little Ale. She loves stripes, she says.

Mmmm, Burrito!

This is the tastiest looking swaddled-baby burrito ever!
