At the age of nine months, Riu is getting too big to fit in the crib her daddy built.

Time to get a proper pen for the fattening piglet.

When Granizado Kennedy, Nicola, and Ben came to visit, Riu took everyone on the Magic 116 Bus to Parc Guell.

The two ladies pose for the camera, Ben is more interested in his sock.

Granizado and Riu pose for the camera, Ben checks out something across the street.

Boys, eh?

Cousin Ben came to town to visit. Riu took him to the swings.

He seems to have enjoyed the experience, having gotten over the bullying he received the last time they met.

She’s a reformed character these days, having left her youthful indiscretions behing her.

Columpio, columpio, swing, swing.

As if her social life isn’t busy enough, Piglet’s extended family are producing cousins at a ferocious rate. Picking out outfits is fierce pancake, and so she follows her newest cousin in the fashion de-la-moda at her (the Newest Cousin’s) birthday celebrations in Carlow.

Pink and blue is always a winning combination.

It was cold in Carlow so she had to wear her wooly mittens. Miriam is a star and since her arrival into Ireland mere months ago is acclimatising to the weather wonderfully, much better than her auntie is in Barcelona. Whew.

Piglet models her easter bunny gift from Granizado Kennedy as she prepares the house for Second Easter.

Returned to Barcelona after her exertions on the road, nothing would do for the Piglet except to hang out at home and scoff some strawberries.

OM NOM NOM.

Destroyed in strawberries again.
