May 5. Happy Cinco de Maya!

We celebrated Cinco de Mayo by inviting our friends over for Toli's sangria.
The last party we hosted was "Setsubun" in February.
Maya was still too small and was very overwhelmed by the noise and the crowd.
She ended up staying in the former guest-room with my mom for the entire time.
This time, she is all grown up.
She was like a social butterfly.
She was held by lots of people and showed off her cuteness.
(Although she was sleeping on my back in Ergo most of the time.)
Lots of our friends who we hadn't  seen since Maya's arrival came over and it was great to catch up with them.



5月5日はこどもの日。
に、こちらのメキシコ移民の暦では「シンコ デ マヨ。」
これを「シンコ デ マヤ」とこじつけ、パーティーを開催。
出産後会っていない友達や新しく出来たママ友なんかも来てくれて、
皆でトリのサングリアを楽しみました。

前回のパーティーは節分で若干2ヶ月だった真弥さんは音と人の多さにびびってしまい、おばあちゃんと一緒に別室に避難という結果でしたが、
今回は結構平気で(あるいは私も慣れたせいか)おっぱい飲んで、ちょっと遊んで、おんぶで寝て、またちょっと遊んで、おっぱい飲んで、といういつものパターンで2時から8時までパーティーを満喫。
機嫌が良いタイミングではいろんな人に抱っこされても割とぽよーんと、平気にしておりました。


May 5th is Boys' Day in Japan.
Got some Koi-fish banner for the tradition.





Papa made a little too much sangria ;)
