Mabel is always so happy — even when she’s desperately tired. This is a video of her at around 5pm after skipping both of her naps today. As you can see, she’s still not grumpy — but boy can she get loud!

We can’t get her to say her own name to save our lives.
Mama and Mabel love sitting out front in the afternoons and watch cars go by. I was fortunate enough to be home one of these afternoons and watch them do this daily ritual. I particularly loved watching Mabel in her awesome hat digging dirt and giving it to mama. Good times.
- Check out my awesome hat!
- She looooves being outside.
- Here mama — some dirt I found just for you.
- Now rub it in your hands…
- Good — now shake it off — that’s yucky!
Here’s a glimpse into Mabel’s world.
- We used to have plants and mulch…I wonder what happened to it?
- Going for a drive with Mama
- What? I’m innocent.
- Her new toys are Papa Joseph, Mama Mary, and Baby Jeeeeethusss.
- Eating her catracha breakfast (eggs, beans, tortilla, avocado, and heart of palm)
- She loves to sit in things and surround herself with stuff.
- Helping mama clean up the garage.
- She loves to “paint”
- Channeling abuela!
So far, Mabel loves anything and everything even remotely hispanic, including tortillas, guacamole, beans (red or black), eggs, rice — even pico de gallo. Oh how she loves pico de gallo.
- Be careful now — don’t spill it!
- Yes! I have captured the nectar of awesomeness.
- Here — just put it in this little container. I’ll just eat it from there!
- gimme gimme gimme
- Oh my! What is this heavenly nectar?
