Ay Chihuahua!

Bubeaner spent a great night after much fussing and complaining late in the evening yesterday.  It appears he ate a little too much considering he had half a potato, 2 baby food cans, nursed and then finished with 6 ounces of formula within 3 hours.  And do not forget he had the wafer cookies earlier that day.  It was too much for his little tummy.  He cried and fussed while the aunts, grandparents and Momma took turns carrying and soothing him.

He was back to smiling early the next morning when he spent some time getting to know his cousin Ivan.  They just stared for a while before ignoring each other and going about their business.  We'll see how well they play together when they get older.  

Unfortunately Bubeaner experienced another first right before we left.  He was reclining against the pillows on the bed as we were packing when he decided to dive off the bed.  His uncle Eduardo had been playing next to the bed and broke his fall so Bubeaner did not hit the wood floor.  Thankfully, he did not cry too long and was fine after a little while.  In fact, the adults were the most upset due to concern and shock.  

Both babies have the same turned down,
 sad lips when they are not smiling.

It was sad saying goodbye to the family, but we are hopeful to see them soon.  Bubeaner did not have any problems on the drive back.  He talked most of the way.  The grandparents loved hearing his chatter.  Bubeaner fell asleep right away after his bath and dinner.  He was exhausted.

We saw this cute little Tarahumara girl while we waited to cross the border.

Bubeaners face with Ivan looks like his Bita's expressions...or lack of...
