Overdue Post #4: Marielle's New Do

Overdue Post #3: Morning Nap Unnoticed

So a few weekends ago on a Sunday we were hanging around the house, getting ready to eat breakfast. Viv got Marielle's meal made while I played with Harper. Harper had already had her morning bottle so she was happy. Well, she should have been. Despite having had the bottle, she was quite the crank while I was playing with her. Once Marielle was eating, I figured I try placing Harper in the exersaucer for a change of scenery and then proceeded to help in the kitchen so that Viv and I could eat.

We sat down and began eating our breakfast. We then realized we were experiencing one of those quiet moments. You all know what moments I'm talking about. They're not so much the, "everything's quite, this is so relaxing" kind of moment, but rather the, "what are the kids up up to" kind of moment. We've all had them before.

Well, as we came to this realization, and looked around the room we found this:



Yes, our cranky daughter went ahead and laid herself down for a nap. Does this make us "not the parents of the year?"

Overdue Post #2: Fashion Show

Each year we attend the Asian and Pacific American Bar Association Dinner. The dinner honors Minoru Yasui, an attorney known for defending the rights of Japanese Americans placed in internment camps during World War II and later for his community service in the Denver Area. Each year the dinner includes entertainment in the form of cultural singing or dancing. This year, they held a fashion show featuring traditional attire of different Asian and Pacific cultures. Marielle participated and got to wear her hanbok which is a traditional Korean Dress.

Overdue Post #1: Easter Recap

We spent Easter at Viv's parent's house. I think it snowed that weekend, but now I can't remember for sure. I guess a benefit of blogging right away would be remembering those sorts of details, but oh well. We spent the morning doing what we all like best - hanging out with family. After breakfast, the girls discovered that a bunny had left little eggs and gifts hidden throughout the basement. It was Harper's first Easter and she was just getting the hang of crawling. She had quite a bit of fun scooting around, trying to get from item to item. On more than one occasion, Marielle took it upon herself to find Harper's eggs for her.

The two of them had a lot of fun. It was a nice, easy going day.
