Joaquin loves to jump. As Joey wisely put it: If it was up to him, his whole life would consist of nothing but jumping and teta. Here you can see him in action. Notice the disappointment when I try to seat him to wash his hands.

At some point we caught Joaquin trying to imitate my arm moves and kiss gestures when I played with him. We tried to capture the scene, but this bollo, at his very tender age, can sniff the camera and refuses to perform when the thing is rolling. So on this video you’ll see us playing […]

For the last week or so, putting Joaquin down to sleep his mid-afternoon nap has become mission impossible. Mom and I, the two victims of this new behavior, keep theorizing about what may be “wrong”. We strategize. We experiment. We discuss. We fight. We keep trying to make him sleep.
I read that a two-month-old baby […]
This used to be Joaquin’s stretching routine every time he woke up. On this particular day he was a little sleepy and took a long time to go from sound sleep to “I want that boob now!”.

Today my son has officially turned one month old. It’s hard to believe it… When I think of the time that has gone by since I first showed up that morning at the hospital, it feels like it’s been years. But when I see Joaquin… how chubby he’s gotten… the little pimples on his face… […]

Soooo…. It’s been four weeks since Joaquin was born…
Those of you who have had babies — specially moms — will probably understand that as much as I’ve wanted to write about my experiences, and share that christmas e-card template I promised, it is really hard to get much done between baby feedings… It takes 30 […]
He’s finally here!…Our sweet baby, Joaquin, was born on Dec 8 at 9:00 pm.
In just one week I’ve lived the worst and best moments of my life. There are so many stories I wanted to share, like what it felt like to be among the 25% of pregnant women who deliver via a c-section. Obviously […]
For those who’ve never experienced pregnancy, this may sound weird and may look pretty freaky, but I’m actually going to miss it…

Hello bolliti,
Lots have happened since my last update…
Over the last two times we’ve been to the doctor, she’s confirmed that you have dropped really low and your head is pressing down on my cervix like such a tight cork, she’s having a hard time assessing how much I have dilated.
You keep growing so much, that […]
Hey there, little Puffeth…
So you missed your chance to be born a Scorpio, and you gave researchers one more statistical point to prove that the cycles of the moon don’t affect the onset of labor.
This week you’ve been extremely active. More so than before…
I’m seeing a lot of pointy waves cruising my belly at different […]
