Our little chinito was a big hit in the Carnaval celebrations today, as much around our table as while regally strolling through Mieres and while playing at daycare with his buddy, Israel, who was a lion for the day. Little boys in costume = big fun. I imagine it'll be even better when Mateo is able to understand when he is, indeed, costumed. He sure has captured that serious "gaze-into-the-distance" of a mini revolutionary in this first picture, though. Mao would be so proud. (Or, possibly, offended.)

Oh my gosh...what a little trouper! (Star of the trouppe, that is.) He must embody the complete essence and meaning of the Carnival and feast. If I'd see him out and about the festivities, I wouldn't have taken my eyes off of him. Actually, I don't! Happy Carnival Days to all of you!
....or jealous! Is there anything celebratory out there that he does NOT embody? With those endless "platter" eyes and beautiful countenance, I don't think so.
Always-the-last-to-respond-abuela (Just wait until I go from "half-time" to "no-time"...but then you will be HERE!!!
Mateo, I am happy to say that even though your parents dressed you as a "chinito" you do not have squinty eyes. You are adorable.
