Cachetón


In Spanish, "Cachetón" is a nickname that means, roughly, "Cheeks-a-plenty."  It's Eliser's nickname from childhood (and still what his family calls him, really :)) and he has begun to call Auggie by the same.  I think it's right on.  To see some more of Auggie's cheeky kinfolk, you should do an image search on Google for "cachetón."

Lately

I'm having a bit of trouble keeping up with the blog.  Clearly.  At least one arm is usually occupied with a nearly 20-pound baby when I'm not eating or helping someone get food from the food pantry (though I've often got the babe with me at those times, too) or learning to do roller derby (a girl needs to do something for herself now and again), and when Auggie is with Eric and I have both hands available, I usually opt to do something work-related on the computer or post something for my online class.  Whew!  Finally, with Auggie about to celebrate 5 months of life in the outside world, I think it's time I lowered my standards.  How does this sound?  I will post more pictures but without much narrative.  And you just be creative and imagine what is happening in said pictures.  Deal?  Deal.  Just so you are warned, a few of them will be of Auggie.
