Oh how I love you...

 

Puerto  Vallarta my heart devotion, let me come back to the ocean...

PV i heart you.  I will miss you dearly but I'm excited to know that I will see you again.  Here are some wonderful things that I've loved and learned about PV.

 I love how we can just walk and walk and walk.

 I love how you can sell and sell and sell.

 I love how we can find random things that we normally don't see in Cali.

I love how i can walk and know that my legs are getting a workout. Also, I've learned that a regular umbrella stroller ain't gonna cut it. Yes Tere we're gonna get a BOB. dang it.

I love the way you put a smile on their face.

iguanas yes iguanas i love you too.

oh the places they go.. they will remember

It's paradise for me.

I learned how you bring the clown out of everyone...(side note) even if your walls are a bit dirty outside they still seem yummy to Ama.. (she just finished taking a lick of that wall..eww.)

the signs, the lights, the cool deco in MCd's. :) that one is for the kids.

I always thought these glass shards were for birds.. but i guess it works to keep burglars out too

how my kids can make it their home even if the place we are at are trying to make it fancy.

how you can make the beauty out of every situation (she's doing her business... thats all I'm gonna say about that)

how they love what they do and do what they love

 

how you inspire my boy to have more imagination.

You bring out all the emotions in me... I will always be terrified of you dang rooftop.

 

So what if I can find 8 taco stands in 1 block radius I know that I wont starve.

OH there is so much more.. but just not enough time or space :)

Now its time to say goodbye toooo P.V...
P-U-E... eager to be back soon..
R-T-O.. oh my gatos gonna miss u
V-A-DOUBLE L - AR-T-A

See you in 2 years Puerto V.

Ama vs.. ....

 Yes this is another bad mama moment. It only takes less than 2 seconds for this girl to get into the trouble she gets into.  Although to her its not trouble its curiosity. And man is she curious. And really I blame only me for her open moments of running to her plans. 
You see Amali is a smart smart girl.  You can see that she is already planning things in her head before anybody else notices.  Plans of escaping, plans of discovering, plans of investigating, plans plans plans.  All vacation long we would make sure that no babies were by the stairway.  But Ama had a plan. She knew when to be off.  She knows when to be sneaky, when everyone was busy,  my smart smart girl.

Two seconds (maybe a little more since I didn't have a clock.. but really wasn't that long) of getting Santi and the others were busy not noticing anything different. But Ama did. She knew that the door was open to the stairway.  It was time for her to execute her plan. And she was off.  1 flight. 2 flights turn corner. 3rd flight 4th flight and by the roof. I heard her small little cute voice echo through the hallways.  I knew after a couple of seconds that she was off.  I ran first asking has anyone seen Ama.  I didn't see her in any room and ran upstairs. I saw her at the top and saw her step her foot on the roof.  I swear I flew to the top. Im just imagining myself as one of those damn vampires from twilight flying tree to tree.. Although I was not hunting for blood I was hunting to rescue my cub. (although more than anything she in her mind didn't seem to be in danger cause she is our daredevil).  I ran and ran... so fast so swift so much like a crazy mother on a mission.
And there she was talking away sitting ontop of the rooftop.  blah blah hi mama blah blah blah.
I walked to her slowly. Kind of like when you walk up to a wild animal trying to tame it. All I said was.. hi Ama..walking slowly  hi Ama..slowly walking hi and GRAB!!!!  I grabbed her so fast held her so tight and didn't let go.  Hi mama blah blah blah...
I don' t even know how the hell i ended up going down. Cause all I was doing was holding my wild brave dare devil baby cub and held her so close.  We were all speechless. We just looked at eachother and couldn't believe what had just happened. 
Now previously before this event I thought I was paranoid.. ha.. I'm so paranoid now.  Every time any door opens even if Ama is next to me.. I say WHO HAS AMA.. oh yeah me... CLOSE THE DOOR! even if its me opening it...  I also had an incident yesterday where I put her to sleep in the play pen and sat to talk to the family.  Two minutes later I noticed that the door was open and ran around saying who has AMA WHO HAS AMA.. yeah Javi looked at me crazy.. then I knew oh yeah she's taking a nap in the play pen...So the outcome to Ama vs. the stairway.. was....  Ama the brave, daredevil won!

guess who is missing

When the other half of hellakids left PV we were sad.  We were sad cause we not only missed the craziness but we definitely missed the kids. 

And then we realized that the twins had forgotten something special to them.  Something that reminded them of home.  We found it hidden somewhere in the PV house and i knew that the babies might be missing it.  They forgot their bear and doll.

   

So i decided that since I know a lot of what being left behind is like (thats a whole other life story) I could show them the doll and bear a good time in PV.  That way they don't miss their owners the twins.

So here are some of their adventures.

 

Playing with Santiago.

Watching Youtube songs with Grandma and Ama

Taking a walk.

Having dinner at Celia's.

Playing with Ama.

Going to the Malecon and watching the show. Also taking tourist pictures.

Spending time with Tio Omar.

Driving to a destination.

Going to the Botanical Gardens and enjoying every moment.

Taking pics beautiful pics :)

  Don't worry twins they are having a good time.  We still have to hit the beach with them and go for a boat ride and and....I'll make sure they come back home safe and sound.

And I'm hoping you are not too sad twinsies... cause mama will bring them home.
