Mateo meets Carlota and Eva
We met our fiends and their babies for the first time. Eva, Carlota and Mateo meet for the first time although they will not remember this.
Saturday Jun 29th.
We finally got around to meet with my friends Carlos & Irene, who had a baby-girl, Carlota, now three months old. They had their child just a mater of days after our gender reveal party, but had not got around to see them since. Since then Josean & Paloma have also had their first baby, also a girl, Eva, only 20 days old. Since I was starting work, after my 6 weeks of leave, the next day, we found a moment to meet together at a terrace near Conde de Casal. My good friend Pablo could also join.
We decided to meet between 18:30 and 19:00 in a bar called La Vinatera, a nice place with plenty of space and good “tapas” and “raciones”. Since it was not very far from home and could potentially walk back from there we decided to take a short bus ride to metro Sainz de Baranda and walk down hill to the meeting place, that way I didn’t have to bother with finding a place to park. The day was sunny but quite windy and this came into play later in the evening as the temperatures went down.
Mariel, Mateo and I arrived early and found Josean, Paloma, the baby Eva and a couple who were their friends already there sitting at a table outside in the terrace. They had met with these friends early since they had to leave soon. Anyway Eva was so cute.

When we left, we decided to try the same route as when we came, although this time it was a walk uphill. It seemed that going into the trouble of taking the metro, with Mateo, for just one stop, for later taking the bus was too complicated. Mateo was crying a bit so I hold him while Mariel pushed the empty trolley, at least until he fell asleep and I put Mateo in the trolley.
By the time we got to Sainz de Baranda Mateo was asleep and we were enjoying the walk so decided to walk al the way home.
