Hi everyone!

So apparently this whole blogging thing is harder than I thought, especially since the internets here are very, very slow. But now that Papi has called the people who send us the internet several times, the speed seems to have picked up enough for me to share some more pictures with you.

It's been an eventful few weeks, let me tell you. We've had non-stop visitors, I've been growing more teeth and learned how to crawl and stand alone. (Walking's just around the corner but psst, don't tell Mami and Papi. It's going to be a surprise!)

Anyway, get ready for a boatload of pictures! :)

We did a short trip to Barcelona to visit Tomas for his birthday and see Omi Ku one last time.

SmallPaw gets to help in the kitchen already. I'm not quite there yet although they do give me spoons and tupperware to play with whenever I venture in to lend a hand. I'm sure I'll get my hands on the spice rack in no time.

Then the visitors started, one more fun than the next. First up, Nena. She's a really active one so we did all sorts of fun stuff: hikes, tennis, lots of swimming and pool time.

SmallPaw is a total natural at this game. She actually hit the ball!

That was a fun day. I got carried up and down a mountain AND had delicious paella. Gorgeous views too.

Sa Foradada. It's quite the hike but at the bottom you're surprised with a lovely little restaurant.

Then uncle Curt came for a few days and took Mami and SmallPaw to play mini-golf. Unfortunately I don't have any other pictures from his stay even though we did lots of fun things together. Oh well, your mind is a camera they say...

I can't wait to be older so I can come along on these fun outings...

And finally, quite by surprise, cousin Greta came to see us!

We need a photographer so Mami can come into the pool too.

I think I'm going to have a sand cookie. Would you like one too Greta? They're delicious just make sure no one sees you while you eat it. For some reason it is frowned upon.

Greta was in full demand for the time she was here.

Now it's just us which is also fine if not quite as exciting. But we're still doing fun things and go swimming a lot. (Now even in the sea, all together! Sadly no pictures of that since Mami never takes her phone with her when we go swimming.)

SmallPaw is fearless, once she gets started.

Papi gets a four-handed massage. He loves massages.

Look, all alone! Haha, just kidding. Papi is hiding under the water. But I totally fooled you, didn't I?!

When it was really hot these days we went to dip our feet into the pool early in the morning after our walk. That was lovely. Sometimes seagulls would join us for a quick drink. I really like seagulls, they're everywhere here. I'm trying to imitate their noise but it's hard.

I promise I'll let you know as soon as I've cracked this walking thing. Maybe I can even figure out how to put a video here but I might need SmallPaw's help with that. Bye for now!
