Oaxaca, so far

The kids sat watching this weaver for 20 minutes



We visited Paz Montessori School. This is a puzzle map of the Mexican states



This is outside our house


You can zoom in to see the kids


Aviva in particular is very popular at the market places



This was a market place that sold clothes, vegetables, tools, and livestock


Watching chocolate being ground - with cinnamon and sugar added to the cacao bean


Market place where mangos are sold with chili powder, and there's these little fruit that look like big orange peas, that I haven't yet identified

lost child in the middle of the night

Aviva got lost in her bed last night. She called us in, in the middle of the night, because she could not find her pillow. When I got there she was crawling around the wrong end of the bed feeling for her pillow, sobbing, "I can't find my pillow". I guess the transition from closet to bed can be hard.


The next night, she called us in the middle of the night and was laying on the floor. She asked me to put her blanket back on her, and also where was her pillow? I put her back into her bed, under her blanket, onto her pillow.
