The dog get's it....why doesn't everyone else?!

Our Chihuahua, Cuervo, is a big part of this family. We have had him a little over a year, and he truly believes he is one our children!!! :) He loves the kids, and does all sorts of cool tricks, and he is spoiled rotten let me tell ya!

I just happened to notice that when my son, Munchie, calls for Cuervo, it does NOT sound at all like he is saying his name...it's like--Ahhh...oHHH!!!

Munchie found Cuervo's favorite toy a few minutes ago, and began calling for him...he did not smack his hands together or anything else that would give the impression that he was calling a dog...but wouldn't ya know it....here comes Cuervo running for his boy!!! I realized, it doesn't matter to Cuervo that Munchie doesn't "say" his name, he gets it...he understands the words coming from my severely Apraxic childs mouth in a way that most adult humans do not!!!

For these 2 nothing else matters except for the true love of a little boy and his dog! It was a really neat thing to see! :)

Quick update!

I just realized it's been a few weeks since my last entry here, and decided I'd better update! :)

I haven't had much goin on since Munchie started school. I did get a new (well, new to me) car last night....I went from a 1989 gray Chevy Celebrity piece of crap to a 1996 Red Pontiac Grand Am!!! I love this car...just have to get all the legal stuff done now, title, inspection, plates...the whole 9 yards!!

I could beat Hector though...he actually bought this car a couple of months ago, and was working on it, it needed a new motor, and he had it at his friends house at the guys shop so that he had better access to the tools he needed! He left the trunk open on it one night, and it rained!!! Pendejo! Now the car smells like an old flooded out, musty basement...and he had better hope that he gets that smell outta there or I will not be driving it! :(

Finances have been crazy lately...for the first time in 3 years we had fallen behind in August, and just got caught up this week! I was kinda freakin out for a minute! But I think it'll be alright now! :)

I have been looking into moving to Mexico, for good! Anybody have any ideas on how to go about getting legal in Mexico if you don't have a job offer, nor will be attending school there. Me and Hector have been living together for 5 years, but are not married, and I have 3 kids whose father's are Mexican Citizens!!! All I can find is for me to go on a tourist visa and return every so often to renew it...I would really like to be able to stay with no problems, and worry that if the economy fails here the way I think it will...how likely would I be to have a tourists visa renewed!!!? Me and Hector have both searching everywhere for info, on Mexico's Government and immigration websites, and found NADA to help me out! So, now I'm asking anyone who might have experience with this to help!!

Thanks ya'all!! :) I'll talk to everyone soon!
