Grown up

Bangkok was when I realized my baby girl is now a toddler!
She was happily running around, playing in our apartment, swimming pool, her great grandma's house and at the airport.






Lux calls her my sassy girl :)

June Bangkok Pictures

We went to Bangkok for a 5 day break in June - where the grandparents also saw Sihuai for the first time.
For the first day, we went to a restaurant that Lux went to as a child. It's still standing, high roofs, old fans and tables, and staff from another era. And yes toliets that you can fall into (the male toliet is really a hole in the floor and i was holding onto Siyuan tightly as he went)

Here's a picture of the kids running wild while we were literally chewing the fat after dinner.

Breakfast

Me: Let's go to Cafe de Coral for breakfast
Siyuan: No, I want Macdonalds!
Me: I have money, you have no money. So we're going Cafe de Coral
Siyuan stands stunned. He mulls over that for a 10 seconds. Then standing up, he jabs his fingers in the air and uttered: Mom must give me money!

First Drip

There was a gorgeous salt water pool at the hotel, where Sihuai had her first dip :)
This is post her swim.

Something for Everybody

Siyuan is always looking for something to eat, and Sihuai is always looking for something to eat. That's what my helper said.

Sihuai is about 14-15 months, and she is teething and having separation anxiety. Not a great combination for Lux.

Sick

We've been sick for a while. Somebody brought a sick kid to the playgroup Lux was hosting and infected everybody. It's taking a while to get back to normal. Just a note here to mark it.
