Champions!!!

Samuel, his brother Rodrigo, his cousin Alejandro, aunts Pilar and Hontanares, cousin Paula and friend Rayo when to Hamburg to see the final of the Europe League Championship. THEY WON!!! Samuel left the house at 2:30 a.m. to catch his flight at 4 and he got back home the next morning at 7:30.  Needless to say he was exhausted but super excited, went to work and then came home to nap and then took the boys to celebrate with the players.

Samuel and the boys celebrating at the statue of Neptune.(the players are on the open air bus.)

Standing

Oliver loves standing now. He figured out how to stand up on his own in his crib and now is doing it with his play table and almost with the couch. The video was taken on Saturday, May 1st. We are now keeping everything up high or at least trying, with a 3 year old this is a challenge.

BBQ with friends.

Putting on our uniform

So we try to get up early enough so Nico can put on his uniform by himself.  The other morning this is how it turned out. (Pants-backwards, shirt-backwards, sweater-perfect, socks-perfect, I believe he put his shoes on the opposite feet also but by then the other things were put on right)

Oliver loving a box just his size.

Good Grades

As you can see from the IV in my arm I´m a little slow in posting these pics. Before Easter Nico got his grades from school and did well so he got a small pack of Toy Story figures. Oliver started sitting without help.

Easter

Nico was very excited to have Woody and a black spiderman.
