Gram: Part Deux



La abuelita herself with Mateo. Mercedes and abuelo Mario looking on.



A Canga, a Leader and a little Canga Leader. Great-grandfather Roberto is thrilled with the newest addition to our family and not afraid to say that he was counting on having a great-grandson before considering his life complete. Almost once a day, he admits that he cannot wait until this little guy is running around the hallway of our apartment.




Mateo and grandmother



We all had dinner and listened to lively jazz in Madrid's Santa Ana plaza the night before abuela flew home


Only two more weeks until we reunite in Virginia for the last month of our summer and Mateo's introduction to his abuelo, his Aunt Fitz and Uncle Robert, his great-grandmother and great-Aunt Anna and the U.S. of A.

ALex, that shot of him on his back with his mouth in the perfect o shape is amazing. And your mother is the picture of happy abuelita-hood. I know that the rest of Mateo's family is going to love him just as much as Grandma. Thank you for the blog updates, I crave these windows into your family life.
