SaturdayPlaydate/babysitting duty-in the morning Nico and I hung out with Andreas, one of Nico's friends. We went for a walk around the complex...
We played at the sandbox...
we ate yummy breakfast....
and I tried to put them down for a NAP...which Andreas was all about...but Nico didn't really support the idea....
Before Andreas got picked up, they discussed what their plans were for the week...
Since he didn't nap in the morning, he took a short little nap as we walked to the pool. I got to TAN for 12 WHOLE MINUTES!!!!

Then, we hurried over to meet up with the
Cuban Lampoon Family Vacation, the Caraballo family--the whole gang, was in town to watch the screening of Chris's movie,
The History of SpaceFlight.
Nico and I stayed outside of the screening most of the time--because some shhhusshhhers were being really annoying, lol. The other films were kinda gruesome and depressing so it didn't matter anyway. We had loads of fun out there trying to scheme with Alina and Olgi on how to get more

| From Caraballos, Beach, big boy sitting VOTING cards to get Chris's movie the 'audience's choice award' plus, Nico found the voting pencils (and box) extremely entertaining. |
Proceeding the show, there was a lovely reception on USC campus infront of the theater and then a PACHANGA* at Chris's apartment, where his family made delicious food. We came home way past Nico's bedtime, but had a great day!
(yes Nico wore a Guayabera)
Sunday we went for a great 6 mile run! I got to run on the shore---with my shoes off---IN THE WATER, for the first time! It was GLORIOUS! Peter pushed Nico so that I could have that moment...lol. It was nice and sunny, and as usual, Nico loved the run.
Nico and I then went to Patti's house (the babysitter) to celebrate her daughter's birthday! We had lots of YUMMY FOOD and Nico was super excited about all the BALLOONS that were there.
We came home and hung out at the beach a little but unfortunately by the time Nico and I met up with Charlie and Daddy, it was already cloudy =(.
At 5pm we were ready for
EASTER Family Shots. We got together with Alyssa, Lorena, Alberto, Brenda, Mia, Roberto, Leanne, and Aaron at our complex to take some pictures and enjoy some delicious pasta salad that Alyssa made. I brought some wine, kettle corn, and chicken pesto to complete our "dinner- potluck". The kiddos decided that the party was over, so we all headed home, with a couple new laughs, some great new pictures, and some more memories to add to OUR LA LIVING repertoire.
Here is the link to the Pre-Easter Photo Album if you don't see the slideshow below.
*For those Gringos reading this, PACHANGA- is a latin style party---aka, lots of people talking very loudly about a bunch of different things, at the same time, and an incredible large about of really scrumptious food/desserts/snacks.
