The Littlest Yucababy Says, "Gracias"

Week 1

Hello.  Perhaps some of you remember back when my big sister, Penny, was a Yucababy.  Well, it's my turn now. You can call me Yuquita.  And Yuquita is here to give a big thank you to my abuelas, and the friends who've made my first three weeks such happy ones.

Primero, gracias to my great-grandmother, Tita.  I am her seventh great-grandchild.  Seventh! And we all know seven is a lucky number.  I got to spend two weeks in her arms, the same arms that held my mommy and my nana.  See?  I'm SUPER lucky.  And I love my Tita con locura, as she would say.

Next, my Nana! Such a sweet nana, I have.  She spent the last two weeks taking about a bajillion pictures of me.  And can I say? I look beyond awesome in all of them because Yuquita is the most beautifulest baby ever.  Also, Nana made sure to spend extra time with Big Sister, taking her on "adventures" each day.

When asked what lesson Big Sister would teach me first, she leaned over and whispered in my ear, "Nana and Abby will buy us SO MANY PRESENTS."  So spoke Big Sister, and thus it is true. Our closet overfloweth.

Which brings us to Abby, who not only DID bring us lots of presents, but also cleaned the house.  It smells like Pine-Sol in here, which is sort of nice, and totally temporary, as mommy has already said that there is no way the house is going to stay this clean for long.  Abby is ten shades of awesome, making time in the day to hold me, retosár with Penny in her room for hours, and, as I said before, clean all the things.

Gracias, too, to all the friends who've come bearing dinners and muffins and gifts and warm hugs for me and Big Sister.  This little Yuquita is so very grateful to all of you, and I'll remember you all when it's time for me to conquer the universe.

I kid, I kid.  See, I'm laughing at my own little joke:
