It could be that I am completely ready for potty training, or I could just be going through some really weird phase that Mommy & Daddy pray I outgrow before my teenage years, but lately I get overtaken by this urge to remove my pants. It happens at random moments of the day(though luckily always at home - so far): I could just be playing in the living room or having quiet time in my crib when I feel this sudden urge to remove my pants and hang out in my diaper.
Well today Mommy walked into my room after naptime to find me again without any pants on. I had strewn them, as well as my diaper, across the room, and was standing up, dancing in my crib, buck nacked from the waist down.
The tales of a conventional, if slightly sheltered, thirty-something couple who catches wanderlust, abandons their families, renounces the familiarity of suburbia, and moves to Mexico City for a taste of the expatriate life, taking their grandparent-doting, Gymboree-loving baby along for the ride.
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain

Welcome
This blog is an account of our first expatriate experience, and is meant to give family and friends an ongoing glimpse of our adventure, and to help share our excitement, frustrations and all the other emotions that are sure to arise over the next two years. For a couple who has never lived outside the NY/NJ tri-state area (not even study abroad during college), and whose immediate and extended family lives there, we are in for some major adjustments. While we are scared about the many changes that lie ahead, we wanted the chance to live overseas and experience life differently than we ever have in the past, or ever could in suburban NJ. We hope to eventually return to our familar life in the US, but for now it is time to try something different.

Ah, yes, I remember that stage. I was in a changeroom once and turned around to find Guerita naked from the waist down, dancing in front of the mirror!
