In a life with kids you find yourself deprived of many things, including sleep. I’m sure many will know what I’m talking about. So last night, I actually slept eight hours (8.5 to be exact). Considering that a rare event, I thought I’d be well rested and a bit more energetic. Turns out I’m actually even more tired than usual and sleepy. I probably need some catching up to do. In any event, it’s coffee time.

So after spending two weeks in Ensenada and enjoying time with the family, we are back in Florida. Weather is chilly and windy. We had a great time and I was able to see my parents for a few days. They actually took us all for a trip to the San Diego Zoo to celebrate Diego’s 5th birthday. We spent Christmas and New Year’s with my in laws. Diego and Jimena where able to see their cousins and spend hours playing outdoors.

I’ve now been in Mexico for a few days now. Christmas is a great time to be here! We spent Christmas Eve at my in-laws, we’ll probably do the same for New Year’s. And soon after we will pick up my parents at the airport. After a few years of not being in Ensenada, I’m certainly surprised how in the big picture not much has changed.

Diego and Jimena are having a great time and adapted rather quickly to the climate. Regina and I are still struggling a little bit.
