12 Things You Only Get in Spain

1. Tons of presents.


2. Beaches, complimentary heair cuts and weather good enough to strip down.


3. Quality time with Titi Isa.


4. Cute new babies.


5. Chill time for everybody.


6. Cheeky princesses.


7. Yummy curly mummies.


8. Correspondingly posh grandparents.


9. In short, Spanish weddings... which Tara thinks preciously little of...


10. Sweeties for breakfast.


11. Steady and vast supplies of sweeties for everyone at "Lo de la Loli".


12. Fat. Way too many sweeties.

(But maybe you can at least partially also blame the fact that new babies can also be had outside of Spain.)

Congratulations? Are you just poking your belly out for fun or are you really preggy? I hope you are really preggy!

oh my, if that belly was from sweeties, Alex dear, you really should have shared a bit more! So I really, really hope that this is a baby belly because that tummy ache following that many sweets would have been horrific ...

Congratulations! That Party of Five just keeps expanding and expanding. Unbelievable. So happy for the three of you!

Dear friends... so there are people among you who think it entirely possible that I get this fat AND flaunt it on the internet? Fascinating. But see top centre picture: would I shine a benevolent smile upon a mere heap of fat? I would not. 'Tis indeed another child, and it's name is Miaomiao, says Tara. Of course there are also corresponding heaps of fat, but not on the front, and I sure shall not flaunt them either!

Like that weird little noise the italians make while sticking out their tongues? Hmpf. We'll just have to have a little chat with little miss Tara, no won't we? I'm sure she could be persuaded to change her mind after a few sweeties, or 20.

p.s. I have the same (situational) photo (in my head) of Lorenzo with heaps of gifts from our travels as well. Bizzallions of outfits I will never put him in and various plastic loud-noise-making toys. Nirit witnessed the madness and me thanking God that no on understood "I want my present NOW" every time someone gave to visit. Of COURSE there WAS a present...

Mommy, Papa and the 'Nuts said...

Popular vote is YES, find out! How can we all wait till the end...wait, WHEN exactly IS the end???

Zuckermäuse & Co said...

Soooo happy for you!!! Enjoy growing! And I'm sure there'll never be too many sweeties in your family...:-)

Congratulations Alex and Jose - a sister or brother for Tara. Just when you thought that your life was back on track along will come another bundle of joy to brighten your day and keep you awake at night. The love, joy, warmth and happiness that you all will share will more than make up for the occasional sleepness night.
