Well, we have been living in Mexico for just over 2 weeks now. It has been an adjustment, but we are loving it. Of course with every new place there comes the good and the bad along with it. I don't like hearing dogs barking all night long. It keeps me up and is really annoying. I have been told by everyone here though that eventually you don't even hear the barking anymore. I am anxiously awaiting that day. I miss having a mall with an enclosed play area, and the library to take my kids. They are however loving playing outdoors in HUGE backyards all day long. We already need a new bottle of sunscreen. I miss my favorite restaurants like Sonic, Chik-fil-a, Olive Garden, etc. I know I have only been here for 2 weeks, but I am already excited for my first trip to the states in a couple weeks to eat out. I am loving the food here though too! Rosa's Tacos, Mechy's quesadillas and green burritos, my mother-in-law's cooking, paletas (popcicles) from the paleta man, Sonoran style hotdogs from the stand on the side of the road. Yummmm!!! I love the ward here and how most of the ward has the last name of Jones. We go on daily moto (4-wheeler) rides. Indy and Porter are also loving being able to play with their cousins every single day, so they are never bored. The way of life is so laid back here. All businesses have a "Siesta" time from 2-4 pm. Devin gets to come home for lunch every day and is home by about 4 in the afternoon. Indy is growing and becoming more adventurous everyday. She may be getting taller, but she is losing weight! She eats a lot so I think it is all the running around she is doing. She is at 27 lbs. Porter has learned quite a few new words since being here. Here is a list of his current words: Mama, Dadda, bite, bit (bird), peas (please), tay (thank you), ouch, kit kat (kitty cat), hi, bye, sof (soft), dant (dance), he quacks and flaps his arms at anything that has feathers, and when he is poopy he grabs at his diaper and says "poo!". He is too funny. I hope to get some pictures up here soon, but it might take a while since I am using my in-law's computer for now.
