Tuesday Miriam's cousin Coquis met us at the airport. Octavio and Coquis live in a beautiful two story apartment with an amazing patio on the top floor. We are staying here for the week (only downfall – 6 ½ flights of stairs - which means you do not want to forget anything on your way down or up for that matter....). We spent most of the day getting settled in and catching up. I pretty much slept since I was not feeling well.
Wednesday Miriam, Isaac and I went to the Park. Isaac really enjoyed playing on the jungle gyms and slides. Miriam and I had a nice relaxing lunch with a live pianist, while Isaac napped. On the way home we stopped at the grocery store. This is wear Isaac got to ride "Dino" from the Flintstones. He loved it and kept saying "Yabba Dabba Doo!!". Then we met all of Miriam's family at her cousin Edith's and Rodrigo's house in Polanco. When we arrived Isaac was asleep. So he joined Julia (Isaac’s newest cousin) in her crib while she was napping as well. When Isaac woke up he played with both of his cousins Leo and Julia (there was lots of running around and learning to share toys). Then the adults had dessert and exchanged gifts. Eight out of the twelve gifts were scarves….
On Thursday we went to "Granja de las Americas” with Coquis. This was a small amusement park for young children very similar to a petting zoo. This is where Isaac got to play with: sheep, bunnies, dogs, goats, donkeys and cows. One of the sheep actually tried to nudge Isaac over which was funny...it was a lot like how Cosmo plays. They also had a mini-movie theatre where Isaac saw his first movie. It was an old Disney - Mickey Mouse cartoon. Now he understands where Mommy and Daddy go on Saturday nights when we say we are going to the "movies". We all really enjoyed the park. Thursday night we went to Isaac's Great-Grandmother Abuelita Tina's, house. This is where; Miriam's mother, Edith, her Tia(Aunt) Georgina and Tio (Uncle) Hector grew up. The house was a very traditional Mexican house with a beautiful garden and patio. We had dinner and dessert there and the kids got to play around again.
