PaulandIrene, are you guys coming to Spain for a visit??

Yes, and I realized that with all we've been doing lately, we hadn't informed anyone We arrive this coming Saturday morning, and are in Madrid until Wednesday 6am... staying at Hostal Macarena. I know it's totally late notice but if anyone wants to meet, our plans are pretty flexible. Other than going to Toledo on Monday, we don't have anything scheduled.

thanks all.

parenting has been great so far and no surprises yet. pretty much what we expected as new parents (lack of sleep, etc...)

one bit of advice to anyone who can do it. if you can swing it, work from home (that goes for moms and dads). being able to work at home is fantastic since you do not miss a trick.

i put some vids up at the lync xander reines díaz website --> http://lxrd.org/vids/

We ran into Lync and Ena today on the street and he is just guapísimo. Tons of hair, totally alert and espabiladito (and hungry!). So, so cute.

hey megan.

ena mentioned she saw you guys.

Lovely, lovely photos, jer and ena. He is a beautiful little boy I've forwarded them to Lucy too, and she sent her congrats to you all!!

And now, I can have a look through loads of vids too!!! I can see being a virtual grandma, as well as a real one, will take up a lot of my time!!!!

You know, I think that Lync won that tiger fight, but the tiger put in a few good scratches.

He is a joy to be around.

Well, word on the street is that Jer and Ena are already starting on baby number 2, but I can neither confirm nor deny this rumor. I can neither reveal my sources.

congratulations jer and ena!!!! he is absolutely beautiful! so so happy for you guys and hope to meet lync one of these days.
besos, desha

Congratulations Jeremy and Ena. What a beautiful baby boy! Blessings to you and your family.

i am happy to say he has my eyelashes (see pic "6 months - all smiles" below) and ena's nose
