Off to Costco today! The Costco in Mexico is pretty much the same as the Costco in the US. Usually when we got to Costco in the US, we just buy milk, eggs, bread, and fruit. Our trips there aren't very expensive, but in Mexico, the most American items are mostly at Costco. Plus, we needed some major household items.
We walked up and down every aisle, except the middle aisles with the clothes and media. Our biggest purchases were wastebaskets and rugs. Other than that, just your usual groceries.
On the way home, we were driving up the hill to Sayavedra when a pack of five dogs came running across the road. Of course, my first instinct was...DEER, then I remembered that I was in Mexico! A few yards up the hill again, we saw another dog run across the road. These didn't look like mangy, wild dogs, but something tells me that they didn't have homes either. Very sad.
On our way back home, we drove through a different part of the neighborhood and we think we discovered a park! Our neighborhood is pretty large with 2000 families and the park isn't really close enough that we could walk, but just discovering a park nearby is huge! Now, it just needs to stop raining so we can go there!
Today was overall and uneventful day. I am still trying to get over this cold and runny/stuffy nose. Hopefully, the rain will stop soon and it will warm up so I can get over this sickness!
Tonight was a difficult night for Claire to go to bed though. After sleeping with us last night, she did not want to sleep in her own bed. She screamed and cried and being the stubborn little girl that she is, refused to lay down on her pillow. She lost TV privileges tomorrow and I don't know if that is going to be harder on us or her. Finally, around 9:15 (an hour after putting her to bed), she was tired enough to lay on her pillow! Her goal is to go to bed cooperatively and stay in her bed for a week so she can get a goldfish!
