When Mommy's Away....

This is what happens! (With Daddy's supervision, of course...)

Waiting...I don't like it...

So as far as the title goes, it's because we're still waiting on internship/job opportunities. Companies should know by now whether they're going to hire or not, right? And the other thing is the DNA test that Raulito did. The embassy in Colombia has to contact his mom before she can do the test, and then they send it all up here to be analyzed...So yeah, still waiting. Other than that, life is great. I can't believe it's already April! That means Raulito is ALMOST DONE!!! We're really excited. The kids are great. Raulito is talking more and more, and Rakel is learning something new every day. She knows a lot of the states, and is learning to read (may take a while, but she's started and very interested). They are really so much fun, except when they are fighting. ;-) We got a new computer this week, so we are in the process of putting everything on the new one. My family is coming down for conference weekend and taking the old computer with them (I say old, but it really is only a couple of years old and works really well). We are really excited about General Conference this weekend, except I realized that I have to work during both saturday sessions...I told Raulito that he has to take good notes so that I can catch up saturday night. I wish we could go, because we're so close and who knows where we'll be later, but I guess I should just enjoy the fact that we get it on TV here and don't have to go anywhere. Well, I promised myself that this wouldn't be too long. Here's some recent pictures of us. Enjoy!
We said good-bye to our friends Sandra and Temo and their family. We also celebrated Kim's birthday! We'll miss you guys!
Raulito was pretty excited about the cake, can you tell?
He did NOT like me holding Alicia's baby...He thought he got Mommy to himself all the time!
Raulito's and my flower projects. The teacher made him do his after he got back from Texas...Which do you like better?
Here's some pictures of Raul in Austin. He took over a hundred, so I had a lot to choose from, maybe I'll put some more later.
Spaghetti?
He's so serious.
The kids found an ant outside, and loved it...
Raulito decided to dump the whole box of cereal on the table. After this picture was taken, he threw it all over...
The girls enjoying the time together and meeting Alicia's baby boy, Nefi.
We went to the Draper Temple Open House. Beautiful!
Rakel and Ema on the bus (on the way up to the temple)
When you tell Raulito to "say Cheese" this is what he does...
