Three Years Old!

Bangkok

OK...another quick post. Went to Bangkok over the weekend with two other women and their babies. Troy and Olivia stayed home -- he'll have to do that post. Here are just a few quick pictures from the trip. Will try to add more later! 

Sweet baby bathing in the JJ Market. 

Our sweet babies playing on the floor. Poor Annika always cries when she's away from her mamma. 

Me and my girl. She was sure a trooper to be dragged around so much. 

Vegetable market. 

Fruit market. Mmmm. Love those colors. 

Flower market. 

Riding a tuk tuk with our babies, a stroller, car seat, guide and driver. Quite funny. 

Dried fish. 

Gorgeous pomegranates. 

Quick update...

It's been a while. We've been sick, traveling, sick again. Life is busy with two little ones. Here are some pictures to describe what we've been up to! xoxo

Traveling...both kiddos strapped in.

Potty trained! Livvy did it herself. She's also into dressing herself. Sometimes in her sister's clothes...

Getting sister all dressed up, too.  

Feeding each other. 

Dancing and dress ups. 

Hey big girl! Anni can scoot now. Only a few weeks and she'll be crawling!

Swimming! Little sister now loves the water. 

Mmmmm. Baby love. And if you know this baby, she sure loves her mamma.

KL & Cameron Highlands

We went to Kuala Lumpur and the Cameron Highlands in Malaysia over the weekend. Still seems crazy to say something like that, but it really is as easy as taking a two-hour drive somewhere in the states. Here's a picture at the Boh Tea Plantation (Thank you, Lauren!) I have a goal to actually post about one of our vacations here, so this picture is a reminder.

Bedtime Rituals

Bedtime can sometimes be an ordeal. Tears. Lots of requests: Blankie. Drink of Water. Tuck me in. One more story. I say the prayer. No you say the prayer. 

It's still kind of fun, though, to get all snuggled up with this little cutie. Love our girls.

Gardens by the Bay

I debated whether to label this post "Brave New World," or something of the sorts. Singapore has this great new park that just opened with gorgeous gardens and these structures they call "supertrees." Basically, the trees are massive hanging/vertical gardens as tall as 16 storeys. 

They somewhat otherworldly. 

We went to visit this park a few weeks ago, just after it opened. It was HOT. But we loved it.

Here's Troy and his two little explorers. We had just gotten off the nice, air-conditioned MRT and started walking in the heat. The supertrees are just across the river. I love Olivia's skeptical look. "You're taking me where, Dad?"

Looks almost as if aliens have invaded.

 Crossing over...

In the Chinese-themed gardens. My sassy Olivia. 

"Guys, it's hot here," says Annika.

Olivia is a good little mommy. She nurses her baby, too.

Happy girl! Love that smile. 

 Brave New World. We arrived. 

"Take me to your leader."

"I'm cooler than a supertree."

Family self-portrait.

Our girls.

Troy trying to lead his family out of the supertree grove. 

"Dude, where's the food?"

Living here is fun...
