And now a word from Jhon-Fredy...

Hola! Me llamo Jhon-Fredy. Yes that is J-H-O-N it is not a typo! I figured since Anji posted an entry I wanted to have a turn too!

My sister Carol took the picture you see above - she did a good job - no?

I am very very meticulous about my personal hygiene - in fact everyday when I wake up I DEMAND to brush my teeth the very first thing. Then I wash my toothbrush with soap afterwards - just as every well groomed man should! After that I wash my face ON MY OWN - thank you very much. All this usually takes about 15 mins. after which I leave the bathroom counter completely wet. Hey you gotta break a few eggs to make an omelette.

I LOVE sports, especially soccer. You should see me kick the ball. I have great footwork - I already know how to trap the ball. I even like to 'announce the game' as I'm trying to get the ball past Papi and when I score I throw my arms up in the air and shout "GOAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!" with the emphasis on the "L" of course.

I'm not a picky eater, I'll pretty much try anything unless I see my sister Carol decline something - then I'll say "no thanks". She has taken care of me for a while now and I pretty much trust her judgment.

I like to do other things as well. I really like to color as you can see me here showing my artistic side:

And of course I HAD to try on Papi's glasses after I saw Carol with them on:

Today was kind of tricky for my new family. Anji was sick and the doctor came to our room. He said she had the flu and gave Anji some medicine to make her feel better. The doctor also checked Carol out too because she STILL has a cough from last week. She got medicine too. They both are doing much better now.

So Mami spent a lot of time taking care of Anji and Carol helped Mami so that left me and Papi on our own to do stuff. We started by taking a walk around Bogotá. then we came back and ate lunch with 'the girls'. After that we waited till the doctor came and when she did Papi and I went out in the courtyard to play soccer. After that we all took a walk to the grocery store and when we got back Papi and I watched some Sidney Crosby hilite reels on YouTube. The way I see it hockey really isn't that much different from soccer...except you play it on ice...and you play it with sticks...but the one thing that they both have in common is that I still shout "GOAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!" when Sid the kid scores and Papi and I 'high 5'.

Well I think that's about it...except that Mami asked me to let you know that our stay here may not be as long as she thought. The next step is signing the 'sentensia' (sp?) next week and then we work on getting our passports and visas. I'll be getting my picture taken for my passport - most likely I'll be spending twice as much time getting ready THAT day!

My sisters and I are really excited about flying on a plane to Pittsburgh. Every time one flies overhead we yell "El Avion! El Avion! Pittsburgh!" ("Airplane! Airplane! Pittsburgh!").

Ok NOW I'm done *yawn*,
Buenes Noches!
