Kids

Here are a bunch of pictures I have been meaning to post for months.  All of these pictures are from before #3 made his grand appearance. 

Although we were not in the country for Easter, our group celebrated once we all able to get together.  Here are my two kids in their finery.  

One day AB said, "look mom I wrote my name." Wow she did.  I had not even tried to show her how to write it yet. Basically she wrote her name exactly how I painted it to hang on her wall. She even curlie-q-ed the "i." Way to go big girl!

This is in Chaing Mai way back when we went there the first time this year.

We had some swim trunk issues and will probably continue to have them until DB grows a bigger hinnie.  

This picture falls into the ironic category.  We are standing in front of a tasty restaurant called Element Fresh that is in the same city block as a huge dirty smoke stack. 

Just an average Ikea trip. Here we are waiting in line to ship all of our stuff home.  

Like father like son in their mock turtleneck zip-up jackets.

DB was once terrified of this football player dress-up costume - do not ask me why.  However thankfully one day he decided it was not scary anymore.  

KB: Hey kids! Make a bridge for the train with your legs.  (AB got the idea.  DB not so much)

For my birthday KB bought me my favorite flowers.  I read online that although it can be tricky, you can start a new hydrangea plant with a cutting...

...so I tried, sort of and was very unsuccessful since I did it all wrong.  However AB decided if mommy can stick sticks in the potted tree, why not also stick something in there too - note the paintbrush.  

This is in Bangkok while we were there to deliver RB.  This was exactly one week before RB was born, and thanks to the long hot walk to the pool it was almost the day he was born.
