Always hard to say goodbye…

On August 10, 2008 by Steve With 0 Comments - Grandparents, PJ

Lisa’s folks left us at the end of July, and we’ve been so sad that we just couldn’t bring ourselves to post on Penelope’s blog since then.

We really enjoyed having them here, they were an amazing help around the house and with Penelope, and it was great for Penelope to be around her grandparents.

It is always hard when it comes time for our families to leave, and Penelope has made it that much more difficult. Luckily, it won’t be too long before we see them again.

 

One last hug for Gramps.

One last kiss for Grams.

Penelope hearts La Serena

On July 23, 2008 by Steve With 0 Comments - PJ

 

The Chilean newspaper La Tercera recently did a study and concluded that La Serena was the best city in Chile for raising children.  They cited our good education quality, low contamination, and wonderful beaches, among other things, in taking La Serena to the top.  We tend to think La Serena is a great place, and it is nice to have some confirmation.  Read more about the study in this article in The Santiago Times.

 

Penelope was so happy for La Serena, that she wanted to spell out the city name.  

 

The ‘L’ came out pretty well, but things started falling apart with the ‘A’.  Can’t be too disappointed for a three week old.

In fact, the whole attempt pretty much tired her completely out.  Good thing there is always a mommy to snuggle on.

 

Shopping, Reading, and Being Cute!

Penelope has been busy and getting out more and more.  She’s been to La Faria (the Farmer’s Market) a couple times this week.

 

Penelope has also become a fan of the JUMBO.  Good thing since we seem to go to the grocery store every day,

 

The Margheims are big readers and we are already starting to instill a love of books in Penelope.  Here’s Grams reading to a rapt baby.

 

 

Grandpa and Grams have been an amazing help, but they’ve still managed to find a moment or two to relax.

 

Leyna is starting to warm up to Penelope.  She’ll even cuddle with Penelope and her Mom without being held down.
