A Happy Thanksgiving, November 23, 2006

We did have a wonderful thanksgiving at my brother-in-law's. In Michael's family everybody spends thanksgiving with family-in-law but Michael's family-in-law which is my family doesn't live close so Jay and Jeanne are always nice to invite us being with them and Jeanne's family. They always have a big thanksgiving dinner. I love the part that they stand up in circle, holding hands, listening to Jeanne's mother praying and thanking God for what we have.

This year as my friend Charlie mentioned, we did have great things to be thankful for : River and Relic , our two happy and healthy sons

River and Relic had a very good time tonight. Jeanne's brother Tom and his wife Lana who are musicians had come from California and gave all of us very good time with playing beautiful songs. Jeanne was dancing with River and Relic and they both loved it. They would start crying when Tom and Lana were talking about what to play next. My impatient sons couldn't wait to listen to the songs at all.

The other thing which did entertain the boys was the little dog of Jay and Jeanne. River and Relic were chasing the dog, in their walkers and were really excited about it.

There were a lot of things today that we all enjoyed, but right now I am too tired to remember.

Happy Thanksgiving !

Entry for November 16, 2006

Jeanne is right ! Thanksgiving is almost here and then we will have a family Christmas party, then Christmas will be here and then new year and THEN we will have to start packing for our long trip.

I am really excited about our trip, the only thing is I see three of us missing Michael a lot. It makes me really sad imagining him alone at home

Good Morning Boys!, November 15 , 2006

WOW! , November 14, 2006

Here are my little boys looking into refrigerator like this

Passport Application for the Boys, November 14, 2006

Today we applied  the boys' very first passprts. We are excited about the trips that they are going to take in the next 10 years.

For sure the boys don't understand what is going on but they were really curious when my friend Leoral and I took them for their passport pictures taken.

It is almost the time that we found out that we are having two boys last year and this year they are going to get their passports ! Isn't it wonderful ?

Busy but happy day, November 08, 2006

I did have a busy day with my boys. They have been running with their walkers all around the house, touching , licking and chewing everything that they could reach out from my pants when I was cooking to the chairs ! So I had to run around to stop them : NO ! But who cares ? They would find something else

It is really funny how they look at things:  everything is new and interesting to them. That's why they stare at me grating onions for minutes ( thankfully I was the only one with tears ).

River seems to enjoy cooking. He follows me every step when I am cooking.  Yes, it can be annoying for any person having a shadow with walker on behind  but a mother  definitely enjoys it.

Relic was staring at microwave when I was defrosting some pork chops for 15 minutes ! It is really long for everybody, but for a 6.5 months baby ? too long ! But he didn't have to if he was not enjoying it. He looked like  whole the 15 minutes !

Even when River was running to look into refrigerator , Relic didn't care ( which they always compete who can be closer to the door to watch inside ) , the microwave was more interesting to him.

so I did have pretty funny day with them but the most beautiful moment was when they were trying to reach each others hand through their walkers and when they could do it, they both laughed . I wish I could take a picture, but ....

They do love each other and we really enjoy knowing it
