The biggest news!!!

I wanted to post a few pictures we took of our family on the weekend and a few pictures I tried to take of the boy, and as you can imagine a 2 year old does not sit still for pictures, but I think I got some cute ones. I wished he would sit and do what I say when taking pictures.
And the other big news I wanted to share, although some of you already know is that my visa was approved.
Last Friday we called the U.S consulate and they told Mark over the phone that it was approved and that we needed to call on Monday to make an appointment. So Mark decided to go to the U.S consulate instead of calling because they don't answer the phone until 2pm if they answer it at all. And while there the lady at the reception asked him if he had my passport and Mark didn't understand why she would need my passport. We really thought that I was gonna have another interview and that I needed it to give them more information. We thought that the interview was probably gonna be in a month or so. But when Mark asked why, she said if you bring the passport in the morning it will be ready in the afternoon. So because the consulate was gonna be closed today Mark is going tomorrow and in the afternoon it will be ready with a seal on it and after that I can go back to the U.S whenever I want to.
I don't want to disappoint anyone but we are not leaving very soon yet, well at least we don't know yet. We have things we need to do before we go. We have to sell our car and I need to say good bye to family. Like many of you know last year I found my dad and I met a brother and a sister I did not know they existed. I also have my brother in Copán (my home town) and now that I will be gone he is going to be the only close family member of my family in Honduras. So I need to spend some time with him before I go and of course we also have friends that we need to say good bye to. We will keep you updated when we decide to go back so we can see our family and friends.
I also wanted to thank all of you who prayed for us that we may go back to the U.S and that we would be protected. We appreciate your faith and your prayers and your fasting.
And here are some pictures, of our family, but especially from our cute and handsome little boy.
Enjoy!!!!

Oreos and milk!!! Ummmmmmmm!

He knew I was taking pictures so he didn't stop moving.

I want to touch the camera!!

Isaac has a favorite "puzzew." He completes it about 5-6 times a day and many of fit has been thrown when the "puzzew" can't accompany him in the car, the dinner table, the bathtub, or the potty. He has been getting better and better with the alphabet as well. This is him going through the alphabet with his mama. If it doesn't sound quite right to you, it is in Spanish although the "t" gets a little english love.

In our apartment we have a water cooler. Keyla and I figure with work and the boy taking so much of our time, we need a place to meet up and talk every so often- hence the water cooler. That, and we live in Central America where drinking from the tap is like russian roulette with your digestive track.

Anyways, Isaac is always trying to see what he can get into. This time he found a place he can literally get into (well except for his large cranium). He did all this on his own while mom and dad were talking to friends through skype, and not paying attention to him. So we saw him, ran for the camera, and made him do it all over again. Of course this time he had to be coached. Either way, if the UNC linebacker falls through there's always a future in contortion-ism.

This picture doesn't really do justice to how small that compartment is.

With a little more coaching from his dad, we will be ready for Letterman. Do they have a "Stuff you make your son do" category for the Stupid Human Tricks??

"Isaac reading a book"

This is a video I recorded a few weeks ago. So I went to the bookstore and I bought a Winnie the Pooh book for Isaac . The book has like ten bed-time stories and they are very short. I tried to read it to Isaac but he wouldn't let me read it to him. Then I recorded this video of him reading the book, but we haven't figured out in which language he was reading(The book is in Spanish). I couldn't understand anything he said but maybe you can. Let me know if you know this strange language. I hope you like it!!

We went to Roatán, it is in the Caribbean, it is one of the bay islands in Honduras. We were celebrating our 5th anniversary an we had a wonderful time, especially because we did not take the boy and we were able to do a lot of stuff. I don't want to sound like a bad mom but sometimes it's easy to to do some stuff without any kids. I missed Isaac a lot but I think he missed us more than we did. When we got home he was trying to make us mad by throwing stuff on the floor we guessed he wanted to get punished. He missed us so bad he wanted us to punish him but we couldn't, we missed him so much that we wanted to hug him and kiss him.
Well we wanted to share some pictures and hope you like them, and if you ever come to Honduras you have to visit this place. You will never regret it, I promise!!!

The air plane we flew in.

I had to buy glasses because I didn't have any and I thought I did not need them, but I was wrong.

We rented a kayak and the wind was so hard we got carried WAY out to sea and on the other side of the reef in a few seconds. The kayak rental guy told us that people don't usually come back from that far out, he was so worried we were not gonna make it back that he asked somebody with a boat to go and pick us up, but we were able to get back on our own after a WHOLE lot of non-stop rowing.


We rented a scooter for a day and it was the best idea ever, since taxis are so expensive and you can go whetever you want for cheap (to rent it for a day was the same as one taxi ride) .

Keyla taking pictures while Mark was driving, eh! eh! eh! eh! eh!...

We went to eat to this restaurant and the food was delcious, every time I think about the food I get hungry and want to go back.

The Restaurant

I'm sorry this picture doesn't look too good, I had to scanned it because they didn't let you take pictues with the dolphins with my own camera, ofcourse they want to make the money selling a 4x6 at $10 each.

I wanted pictures of me and I convinced Mark to take me some, he did n't look so happy doing it.

I had to ask someone to take a pictures, well the truth I had to convince a lot of people to take us pictures.

Una hermosa puesta del sol. A beautiful sunset!!!!

We went to see the dolphins but not just see them we went snorkeling with the dolphins.
This was fun, eventhough this animals made me nervous when all of a sudden they appeared from no where when you were swimming with them, they made me a little scared, I can't imagine swimming with sharks.

My hand touching the dolphin. It feels so weird!!!!!!!!

We also went snorkeing, but this time just to see the reef and it was gorgeous.

When you come to this palce you never want to get out of the water.

This is the restaurant of the hotel and it wasn't very good so we went to eat to other places.

The outside of the hotel.

We went for a walk to the beach and of course I asked Mark to take more pictures of me.

The pool in the hotel.

This is what happens when you ask someone to take you a picture with a professional camera.

I am not showing our feet because I think they are pretty, but because this is how you feel and do when you are at the Bay Islands, just relaxing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found some beautiful flowers and I couldn't resist to take more pictures.

Just in case you ever want to come to this place I wanted to share pictures of the inside of the hotel ( Mayan Princess) which I liked a lot because it was bigger than our apartment in Tegucigalpa, except it didn't have a second room, but Mark and I considered coming and living here for a few months.

A full equiped kitchen with everything you need, except you don't cook like I did while on vacation.

Just buildings on the island.
