Our building management put in some new floor tiles and leveled off the playground recently. The kids actually enjoyed playing with these items before they were installed, but since then I really notice a difference... it's so nice to have this facility and even nicer now that the kids aren't tripping over the uneven tiles (she's still just tripping over her own feet... but it's only been a month of walking)!

Last weekend we celebrated Isabelle's 2nd birthday downstairs in the lobby... great idea Eugene and Jenny!!! Here are the dads enjoying a bit of face time with the kids while they were watching the balloon man do his thing...

Hunter got the dragonfly balloon... pretty cool, I must say...

Isabelle's birthday is only a few days before Halloween so they decided to have the party the week before and still let the kids dress up. Here's the birthday puppy...

and her little side-kick. My kids were dressed like monkeys... hard to tell the difference from their regular clothes, but there was a theme to it.

We've made a few trips to the doctor's office for frinkly things - Hunter's strange toenails, Helena's skin allergies, a persistent cough in Helena, blood tests for mama (not pregnancy kind - don't get excited... still working on that blood stuff)... anyway... Hunter always wants to take a mask but seldom actually wears the mask... this day Jing did well to get it to stay on him! Good times.

We finally got to meet Benny Lee... Andy & Celia's little guy! What an absolute doll!!! He is sooooooooooooo cute!!! I can't believe it's taken us almost 8 months to meet up, but we had a fun evening together with them and the little guy. And yes, Hunter is a nose picker... we're working on that.

Inspired by this advert in the window of the Nike shop at Neo 19, I signed up for the 10k run and started diligently training just after our lake swim. I was totally on track and was actually enjoying my training until I strained a tendon in my left calf/lower leg that threw me off my already tight training schedule and in the end I didn't even go to the race (though I did cheer for my friend Claire from afar who did her own PR on the event!!!)... a bit disappointing, but... I'll be back!!! There's another event in December that I'll start working toward - a bit slower this time.
