Olivia had her 2nd birthday. We had a party for her at Jungle Jim's (similar to Chuckie Cheese). She loved it. They have rides and a mini roller coaster, which she rode with Daddy. Fernando's whole family was there and my mom was here from Kansas. (Photo - Armando is helping Olivia blow out the candles on her birthday cake.)

Here's the whole family on father's day at El Gran Pastor. I was taking the picture so I'm the only one not in the photo.
Olivia loves having a big sister. Here are Danya and Olivia at Bioparque Estrella, a zoo that you can drive through and see the animals in their natural settings.

This photo was taken when we went to Grutas de Garcia. "Grutas" means caves and "Garcia" is the town that they are near. The caves are enormous and quite breath-taking. In the photo we are taking a cable car to the top of the mountain where the caves are. The temperature is really cool inside the caves which is a really good thing since there are over 700 steps inside to climb and descend.

My little sweetie loves corn on the cob. She even likes it mexican style (they spread mayo on it instead of butter). This was taken at Lili's parents' ranch near Monterrey.

During the move down to Mexico we stopped in McAllen, Texas and Olivia got to take a dip in the hotel pool. She LOVES swimming. She took swimming lessons this summer in Monterrey. She can blow bubbles under water. Her favorite thing is jumping off the side of the pool. She can almost dive but we're still working on that. She has no fear so we have to really watch her.

This is the beast that we drove all the way from Wichita to Monterrey.
