March Review: Part 1

Nighttime play with abuelito:

Haircut buddies:

(Mateo obviously didn't get the memo.  He thought I said hair-pulling buddies.)  I took him along with me to get my biannual haircut without realizing that the little guy would quickly become the star of the show.  No sooner was I sitting in the swivel chair than Mateo was occupying the adjacent seat, drawing all licensed hairdressers in the immediate vicinity to his side, cooing, calling, entertaining, and, yes, perhaps doing a bit of justificatory clipping around his little ears while all the other abandoned clients looked on with dangling curlers, foil and half-styled locks.  

Bedtime for bonzos:

Truer words have never been spoken:

Uncle Chuck Nagle's wisdom is confirmed in synchronizing this gift with Mateo's teething days.  (I use "days" very optimistically...the teeth haven't quite made their appearance yet, but we have to hope that it's coming along.)

Multi-generational love:

Talking to our moms:

I assume that Mateo is not the only little boy in the world who prefers a cell phone to all toys in the house.
