13 meses/months.
Mas de nuestra vida por aca. Nathan estaba por debajo de peso estimado en su chequeo de 12 meses, asi que el doctor nos recomendo en darle una bebida y regresar para checar su peso. Intentamos la malteada.. yuk! A Nathan no le gusto y no insisti en que la tomara, ademas era muy dulce lo cual nos lleno de dudas a Max y a mi.
Entoces ayer fuimos a chequeo, y Nathan subio una libra de peso y crecio 5 cm en un mes, lo cual es muy bueno! Asi que concluyeron que Nathan esba pasando ppor una racha de crecimiento.
Que felicidad nos da!
So yesterday we had the weight check up and he gain a pond and grew 2 inches in a month, which it's pretty good! So they concluded he was going through a growing spurt.
We are happy now...sigh!

More about life up here. Nathan was a little under the expected weight on his 12-month check up. So the doctor wanted me to feed him some shake and check his weight again in a month. I tried the shake..yuk! Nathan didn't like it to much and i didn't insist...it was to sugary so it made Max and I wonder!So yesterday we had the weight check up and he gain a pond and grew 2 inches in a month, which it's pretty good!

We are happy now...sigh!
cumple, bronquitis, Navidad...y una alergia!!! / b-day, broquitis, Christmas and ...an allergy !!!
Nathan ya tiene un año de edad; me gusta ver como crece y aprende aunque quisiera que se quedara asi de pequeñito como esta ahora.
En su cumpleaños invitamos a algunos amigos y vecinos a comer pastel y helado, nos divertimos y nos llegamos a conocer mas. Durante es semana Nathan tuvo fiebre y como no cedia lo llevamos al doctor. El doctor dijo que lo peor ya habia pasado y que nescesitaba antibioticos para la infeccion y un antiestaminico para aflojar las flemas del pecho. Senti un gran alivio en el momento, pero los dias que siguieron fueron de "batalla" para que Nathan ingestara las medicinas. Por suerte mas es mas paciente y jugueton en estos casos.
En la Navidad, tuvimos nuestra Noche de Hogary vimos un video acerca de la Navidad y leimos el 2do. capitulo de Lucas en la Biblia. Todo es posible!
Cansados, enfermos, soñolientos, y con una gran sonrisa nos levantamos a abrir nuestro regalos. Nathan no tenia idea de lo que pasaba pero se emociono al ver que los regalos eran juguetes.
Dias despues al esta bañando a Nathan note un salpullido en su espalda, Llame a la enfermera y me recomendo hydrocortizon en crema. Espero un poco antes de comprar la crema y el salpulli se expandio. Nathan estaba todo rojo. Oh no!
Reduje las posibles causas a tres posibilidades: el baño de burbujas para bebe, el nuevo detergente, y crema de mani.
Nathan mejoro con al crema!
Nathan is 1 year old. unbelievable. Although I want him to stay little forever, I'm enjoying his growth and quick learning.
On his b-day we have some friends and neighbors joining us for cake and ice cream. We all had fun and got better acquainted to each other. During that week Nathan got a fever accompanied by a cough, since we did not see any improvement in his health we went to see the doctor on Christmas eve, as a mom I felt relief when the doctor said that the worst part had passed and that Nathan just needed an antibiotic and another medicine to loose his chest congestion. Well that was how I felt in the immediate moment, however the next days were a "battle" to get Nathan to ingest those medicines; luckily, Max is more patient and playful in handling these situations.
CHRISTmas, arrived. the night before we had our Family home evening and we watched a video about Christmas and read the Bible on Luke chapter 2. Everything is possible!
Tired, sick but with a great smile, we got up and open our presents, Nathan was oblivious but excited at the sight of toys.
Few days latter, while bathing Nathan I noticed a rash on Nathan's back. Called the nurse and they told me to get hydrocortizone, I waited to do that and the rash expanded, Oh no!
Nathan was all red. I narrowed the culprits to the baby bubble-bath soap, the new detergent, and peanut butter. He got better with the cream

Terminando el 2012./ 2012 coming to an end.
Hoy dia, Max fue a New Yor a prestar servicio a las personas afectadas por el huracan Sandy; el ayudar a otros y el saber que esta magnificando el sacerdocio que posee, le brinda mucha satisfaccion.
Mientras tanto, Nathan y yo estamos poniendonos al corriente lavando la ropa, envasando y jugando, jugar es lo unico en lo que Nathan piensa. Por casualidad ya mensione que Nathan camina? Pues si, Nathan ya camina aunque pierde el equilibrio algunas veces. Es emocionante verlo caminar desde el otro lado de la sala hacia la cocina para que lo cargue y lo pasee. Que chiquitin tan consentido!
Para este Diciembre he planeado que en cada dia hare algo que me recuerde Jesus y su evangelio. Hoy comence envasando tomates para el almacen familiar. Manana, es reunion de ayuno y testimonios en la capilla y ya se por lo que voy a ayunar.
A contunuacion unas fotos del dia de hoy.
Today Max went again to New York to help those affected by hurricane Sandy. He really enjoys helping others and do part of what he is to do as a Priesthood holder.
Meanwhile, Nathan and I are staying home catching up with some laundry (the never ending story), canning and play, Nathan loves this last one. Have I said he is already walking? well, he is!, although he still losses his balance every now and then. I feel so excited when he comes to see me from the far end of the living-room to the kitchen, usually he wants be picked up and carried around, silly!
I think this December I want to do/emphasize) something each day that will remind me (more) of Jesus and his gospel. Today I started with home-preparedness by canning some tomatillos I bough (99 cents/lb). Tomorrow is fast-and-testimony service at Church and I've already known what I'll fast for. :)
Next some pictures from today.

La semana pasada!/Last week!
La semana pasada visitamos al templo de Washington D.C. Aunque manejamos por 3.5 horas para llegar, disfrutamos nuestro viajecito! Max y yo nos turnamos en cuidar a Nathan, quien por cierto es un nino bien portado. Tras visitar el templo dimos un paseo en coche a la ciudad, por asi decirlo; vimos la casa blanca, el capitolio y otros edificios del centro historico. La ciudad en mi parecer es muy bonita, como en las peliculas.
Last week we went to the Washington D.C. Temple, although we drove for 3.5 hours to get there, we enjoyed our trip. Max and I took turns to take care of Nathan, he is such a good little man. After our visit we drove by the city, kind of; we saw the white house, the capitol and other buildings in downtown. The city looked so pretty to me, like in the movies.

VON NIEDERHAUSERN
Se cimbraron los cementerios, algo en el mundo paso.
En la montaña del muerto, éste ahí se lo dio.
Era un anillo muy lindo, que pa' la ocasión adquirió,
con un solo pensamiento. A esta flaquita preciosa,
a esta merita....... me la llevo yo.
Era una fecha de julio, muestras de vida al fin dio,
y las palabras correctas,,, !!!!hijole¡¡¡, el montañés expreso.
Años tardo el condenado, pero por fin aprendió
Le dijo lo que ella esperaba, y SI, seguro le contesto
Caramba,,, no se lo hubiera dicho, pues éste de ahí se agarró,
no la dejo para nada y a la huesuda jalo,
se la llevo para el templo, donde la desposo
De diseños de verdes las tubas, con gozo adorno,
y entre amigos y familiares, una fiestecita organizó,
se dice que estuvo bonita y que a todos les gusto,
era su sueño dorado y desde luego, cumplió.
Hoy se le ve por escuela, en los pasillos flotar.
esperando a su gringuito, pa su casa regresar,
ojerosa, y cansada pues tiene que ir a guisar,
para darles a su güerito fuerzas para trabajar.
Le da su comida tres veces, cosa que nunca probó
y le plancha sus camisas, de lo que ya se quejo
pues ella quiere que luzca, un verdadero catrín,
Ya dejo a los palomos, en su tumba descansar
y en su lápida que dice, que frito,.... todo da igual,
pues los mañanas esperan, nadie sabe que triaran
tal vez unos zapatitos, nadie sabe, que será…..

El otono ha llegado!/Autumn has arrived!
El mes de septiembre estuvo lleno de actividades. Se nos invito a cenar en dos ocasiones y en ambas la comida y compania fueron excelentes!
Los misioneron vinieron a comer un dia con nosotros! Cocinamos una vez para la familia Hoffman que estan esperando el nacimiento de un par de gemelas, (quienes por cierto seran la 9no y 10mo hijos, emocionante, no creen? es por esta razon que la hermana ha tenido que guardar reposo y recibir una ayudadita...)
Mi llamamiento me ha ensenado mucho acerca de la humildad al servir al lado del hno. Haggerty, quien es ciego de nacimiento.
Nathan es la alegria de mis dias, verlo crecer me llena de esperanzas por un mundo mejor y me anima a dar lo mejor de mi.
Max, trabajando como siempre y en busca de nuevas aventuras. El como patriarca del hogar desea lo mejor para nosostros y por ello esta analizando sus posibilidades de un mejor trabajo y de fijar el rumbo de su carrera profesional.
ps: Las hojas de los arboles se estan cambiando de color!
September was very eventful. We were invited to dinner two times and in both ocassions food and company were excellent!
The missionaries eat with us once!
We cooked a meal for the Hoffman family who are expecting their 9th and 10th children (they are twin sisters, that is why sister Hoffman had to be in bed rest.)
My calling, I love my calling and the things I'm learning (like humility) by serving next to Brother Haggerty, who is blind and plays the organ for us.
Nathan is the joy of my days, seeing him discover the world fills my heart with hope for a better world and to do my best.
Max is working and in the search for new adventures. As the head of our home he wants the best for all of us, so he's been looking for new possible path in his work and career in the future.
ps: the tree leaves are changing colors

Mi hermoso Agosto! / My beautiful August!
El verano esta por terminar. Max empezo la escuela esta semana, Nathan tiene dos dientes y ya se para apoyandose en las paredes. Dentro de poco estara dando sus primeros pasos, espero. Este mes de Agosto fue un lindo mes; fetejamos mi cumpleanos y aniversario de bodas, vimos la ceremonia de apertura de las Olimpiadas, recibi el llamamiento de dirigir la musica en la reunion sacramental de la capilla, cenamos con los hnos. Haggerty, fuimos al picnic del barrio, fuimos a tres juego de "The little league" aqui en South Williamsport (2 amigos del trabajo de Max nos acompanaron en una ocasion), fuimos de caminata a Jacoby Falls, envase salsa y mermelada de durazno con fambruesas, visite a las hnas. de la iglesia y me visitaron mis maestras visitantes.
Nathan tiene dos dientes ahora y le encanta jugar con su papa. El dia de hoy jugaron a girar los discos, Nathan estaba muy contento y me parecio muy peculiar lo atento que es y la manera en que espera su turno para jugar.
Max ha estado ocupandose en bosquejar una carriola de bebe y en aprender un programa de diseno en 3D.
Y las noticias de ultima hora: Andrew y Ramona estan esperando bebe para Mayo del ano entrante! felicidades, en hora buena!
Summer is almost over. Max started school this week, Nathan's got two teeth and stands against the wall, I guess he'll be giving his first steps soon. This monthh has been great; we celebrate my birthday and wedding anniversary, we watched the Olympics' aperture ceremony, I was called to lead the music in sacrament meeting, we had dinner at the Haggerty's, we went to our ward picnic, we were at three "Little league" games at South Williamsport, (and two friends from Max's work came along once), we hiked to Jacoby Falls, I canned salsa and raspberry-peach marmalade, I visited teach my sisters and I was visited by my visiting teachers.
Nathan has two teeth now and loves to play with his dad. Today they were spinning some discs, it caught my attention how focused and patient Nathan is to take turns to play.
Max has been drafting a stroller and learning a new modeling software.
And the breaking news: Andrew and Ramona are having a baby on May 2013, Congrats!

Poema.
Nathan, un nino de ojos grandes
juega y explora todos los dias
aunque no parecieran importantes;
es el quien llena la casa de alegrias.
Nathan, un nino de cabello castano
rueda y gatea por toda la casa
aunque no le gusta mucho darse un bano;
es el quien expectativas sobrepasa.
Nathan, un nino de liberada risa
conquista retos inimaginables por el hombre
aunque pasea en carreola contra la brisa;
es el quien a sus padres trae como enjambre.
