I started running again and ran a nice lap in the center of Las Palmas called Corriendo por Vegueta. 10 Kilometers which resulted in a very nice 52:45. Not bad at all.
Maybe I was expecting a little bit of attention for the running effort, but I did not get any. All the attention went to Alex who ran his first match of about 100 meters. He was followed by a cameraman that grabbed his entire run.
Even though Alex is only four he is already conscious about Valentines day and he had worked hard on a beautiful card for a girl in his class.
After lots of coloring, cutting and pasting the result was a very nice card, and after giving it to the girl Alex received a well deserved kiss. Alex was very pleased.
Our youngest son is aready three weeks.
Alan is doing very well. He is slowly growing and gaining weight. His relation with his big brother is also developing and it looks like it is going to turn out okay. The last couple of weeks have been quite a change for all of us.
We’ll be staying in Madrid for a week more and then we take the plane and head on home.
We are very proud to welcome our new son to the world. Alan was born on the 6th of december, at 11:45. His weight was 3465 gram and his length was 49.5 centimeters.
Our last checkup came acompanied with a date. If all goes well little Alan will see his first light on the 6th of december.
Today we leave for Madrid. The three of us. Ana with her huge belly, Alex and me. We hope to return home at the end of december or the beginning of january. When we return we’ll need four tickets. One for Ana, Alex, Alan and me.
I have been drawn. With a bit of a big head (probably correct) but complete with all the parts. Head, body, legs and arms, and even colored with a nice skin color. Hats off to my son the artist.
The 3rd of October is something I like to celebrate. Even though it is a celebration typical to the city of Leiden, celebrating the departure of the Spaniards, and I an living right in the middle of these Spaniards, it is nice to celebrate the past and a good excuse to go into the kitchen and make some hutspot.
