Day 111

Today Bonnie did some schooling with the kids while I worked almost all day. I am starting to miss appearing in court almost.

Our oldest son is a picky eater but he loves Indian food. So we tried very hard to make tandoori chicken and tiki masala sauce. They don’t have the right ingredients at the store so we tried our best, but it just wasn’t able to compare to a restaurant in Alameda called India Palace. Our kids lately have been saying which restaurant and foods they are really missing. Our oldest wants to go to La Penca Azul (American Mexican food). Our second child wants either pho, or Indian food, depending on which way the wind is blowing. Our third child is a man after my own heart, he has been craving a breakfast jack from Jack in the Box for the last 111 days, and our fourth child wants Olive Garden.

I haven’t been sleeping well lately. I don’t know if that’s nerves or if I’m having cabin fever. I am grateful for Netflix and google play. I’ve been watching through the tv show Narcos: Mexico and its fascinating. I’ve gotten a lot of inquiries about the dog and I’ll let you all know that the dog was quite old. It looked as though it had just given birth within the last few weeks. The back legs did not work and that’s why the store owner thinks it got hit by a car. People don’t own dogs here like they do in America, it’s rare to see people walking a dog in public. This was one of the countless strays that run wild in the streets all day long. Below are photos of the culmination of over 4 hours of work Bonnie put in trying to get our second oldest child to eat.

During lunch, our third child lost another tooth. And what’s hilarious is he doesn’t know if he dropped it, or are it. He’s our best eater of the fourth children by a mile, and I love his smile more than anything. He looks like a small hockey player. His other front tooth is very loose as well, so within the next couple days he’ll lose his fourth tooth since hers been here in Mexico.

To pass the time, the boys designed their own t shirts as you can see above what our third child is wearing. Here is a photo of what our fourth child designed with the help of his oldest brother.
