while we were at the shake-shake bridge park today, we went on a little excursion to find the dozens of feral cats that live in the park. we found these guys who kinda look anything but feral...they were waiting for their very patient (but camera shy) human to feed them. i have several cans of food waffle won't eat, and i will be taking them with me the next time we go to this park so i can give them to the kind person who was feeding all these cuties.
not a great pic, but they are still super cute :-)
q figured out how to take pictures with my phone and was acting as the diaper-change paparazzi this morning.
again with the diaper-change paparazzi
i absolutely love this shot...it's a total fluke to get a shot this cool from my crappy little cell phone camera, which makes me love it even more. livie has grown so much since we moved here that she can reach this zip line from both platforms (there's one at either end). she is super proud of this new skill.
the past couple of days have been a combination of super low key and busy. here are the highlights:
- q's language explosion now includes the phrase "it too faaaar" when i tell him we are walking somewhere.
- q learned how to get into the camera app and dial pad app on my phone...also learned to swipe the screen lock. no, i did not teach him any of this. yes, i am figuring out how to lock my screen better.
- livie earned star of the day again today...second time to earn this award at school in the past few days. this award signifies that the child worked exceptionally hard and listened well. i love the way livie beams when she wins this award.
- livie and quinn made two new friends at a park yesterday and will have a playdate with these friends on thursday!
- we got a surprise delivery from the hong kong post today...our friends in pville sent us a really cool care package, and we had a ton of fun opening it and enjoying all the goodies.
- i accidentally made someone uncomfortable by snapping pictures of a situation they were in today, and while i felt bad and apologized, a good portion of my brain was thinking something along the lines of "now you know how it feels!" rotten...i know.
- our bermuda triangle of an apartment struck again today...one of our brand new a/c units now spews water down the wall if i run it for more than 10 minutes. i am not eagerly anticipating another construction invasion.
- in keeping with the bermuda triangle situation, q's bedroom door is now permanently locked and i cannot get it to unlock. tomorrow, we will be trying to figure out which hardware kiosk carries door knobs. man, i miss lowes and home depot.
Your hair is so cute!
ReplyDeleteI adore that picture of Livie on the zip line. It really looks like it was taken by someone who knew what they were doing! :)
Those cats... too cute.
Quinn saying, "It's too faaarrrrr" made me laugh out loud. I can imagine!
hee hee...that certainly is not me! it's a total fluke that the picture turned out so cool. i will be printing and framing this one...both because it's a great pic of my adorable kid and because it's a one-off great shot taken by me, the camera klutz ;-p
ReplyDeleteq added another new phrase to his repetoire yesterday. after watching a yo gabba gabba episode about how some people need to wear glasses to see well, i got this gem: we were walking down the street when the clouds parted and it got bright all of a sudden. q popped off with...ow, my eyes!!! i tink i wear some gasses!" i cracked up. i was the crazy lady walking down the street laughing for no apparent reason.
I like the haircut. I envy you.. asians are the best hair stylists I've come across. but they're only good with straight/wavy hair. =|
