February = Grandmas (plural) in town!

February is family fun month in the Guajardo house! My mom, Mormor (aka "Boo boo" by Mathilde), came to Seattle for a week earlier this month and yesterday JJ's mom, Grandma Guajardo, came to see her thirteenth grandchild for a week. Mathilde is in heaven.

Here are a few pics from our week with Mom:






We've been lucky enough to be enjoying a very early spring here in Seattle so I took my camera one day and snapped some shots around beautiful UW (my new employer). Some of the cherry blossoms are blooming and I love that my office is right next to the water (to the right of the boats). It's a good fit in many ways. And Mathilde is very happy in "school." If I can figure out how, I'll try to upload a copy of her very first class picture. She is front and center for the cutie toddler room; I am so proud!




Photos from our time with Grandma Guajardo coming soon to a blog near you.

All smiles

I think I've made the comment before that it is very hard to capture Mathilde smiling in photos. At least it used to be much more difficult and is one reason we bought our fancy, super fast camera last year. Well, my friend Grith was sorting through her old photos recently and found this one of our little Mathilde smiling widely! This is from almost a year ago when we were having lunch with Grith, Al & Kasper in Denmark. Of course she smiles for someone else's camera!! Thanks Grith, this photo makes me smile!!
