Just Hanging Around...

Here are a few gems from the past couple of weeks. Seems we've spent a lot of time at the NTU Hospital lately... but that's no fun to post pictures of mommy getting her blood drawn AGAIN (just trying to get the blood thinning medication dosage right-takes time and trips to the hospital-too bad we couldn't just scan the blood and email it to them-it'd be a lot quicker)... so here are some of the more interesting/everyday life moments around home/town.


When left to his own devices, Hunter usually ends up lining things up or rearranging the furniture... thankfully this day saw his animals lined up for a water break! I think he lined the cups up first, then decided the animals were thirsty... it's pretty funny to see his lines of items around the house.

Our friends gave us a lovely traditional Chinese New Year outfit for Helena to wear next year, but Hunter has insisted on wearing the various pieces around the house at different times. Once he wore the thick silk pants for a nap... anyway, this particular morning he wanted the jacket on (surprising because he was wearing his new shirt from Uncle Jack & Auntie Sue which he absolutely loves) but he also wanted to go swimming... he settled for the goggles! Notice, he's also learned how to put up two fingers to tell people he's "TWO" - well, he actually says "Liang sui" which is "Two years old" in Chinese. I think he learned to put up the two fingers in photos from Uncle Melvin earlier in the week... it's funny to see what kids pick up! And dear Helena... well, she's just all smiles in her spit up covered shirt... what a sweetie!!!

Hunter and Hilo... he's been asking for "Hilo" almost everyday this week. Imagine his excitement when he finds out he gets to spend all day Saturday with him while Cynthia & Gerald look after him while we go to a wedding... I hope it all goes well!!


One day we took a walk to the organic store (really a walk & MRT ride) and met up with Anna & Sharon since their place is just 2 minutes from our special store. Anna was a bit chicken to go on the slide, but Hunter was able to persuade her...

See... it's not that bad, Anna Ayi!!!

That's funny, Atticus is a liner-upper too. He freaks the heck out if his cars aren't lined up just right.

I'm glad Hunter likes the outfit!! :) Ellie put on one of the pants you gave me for Abram. She actually got them on, they looked like stretch capris.
