Maritza & Alexis

Maritza (our housekeeper) and her husband Alexis (our guard and gardener) are just the sweetest couple. They both love Sophie so much and are just such great people. We will def. miss them when we move from this house. I wish they could come with us. Alexis is constantly bringing Sophie little gifts and odd things he finds in nature, and Maritza can def. throw down in the kitchen! Sophie will lean in for both of them to hold her and it is just so cute to watch. We are getting better with our Spanish so communicating is getting easier by the day. Below are some things that Alexis brought for Sophie today and some dishes Maritza cooked/prepared for us. I will have to get a pic of her breakfast she makes in the morning. She even warms up the milk for my coffee…love…wondering why i never thought to do that! Alexis will go into the trails and chop off flowers for Sophie. His presents aren’t Target or Babies r Us style but Sophie just loves them…lol.

Fresh Pico de Gallo with limes from the lime tree!

Fresh veggie soup - Sophie inhaled this!

Homemade Papaya Frostie

An old wasp nest (vacant obviously) that Alexis found for Sophie

This was a video from right before we left Chicago that was just taking forever to upload every time i tried. I figured out a new way to upload (or i should say Will figured our a new way to upload) so i’ll start adding some videos i had hanging on here over the next few days.
