Celebrating a lot

-

Today, we libraried it.  When you have a 5 year old with a voracious appetite for books and words, the library is a life saver.


As usual, we got lunch afterwords, but before we did that, we stopped and got a cup of coffee at a new place we found.  It was partially to have a cup of coffee, but it was also to get some AC for the 15 minutes we needed to wait for Washin Ramen to open.  J read some new library books too Kiddo and I read my Kindle.  It was fun.  Lunch, also, was a treat.  As usual, Kiddo loved it and crushed ramen.





Thursday was a day off and J had a few things to do and so we still had Nanny Beer.  So J could work without needing to deal with Kiddo in full Kiddo mode, her and Beer headed over to the Corgi Cafe.  As you can see, Kiddo had a blast.









Also, with the temps being insane, the pool is back to being in vogue.  She is too much!!!!!


However, Songkran is upon us.  Yesterday at school they had a celebration for it, however.  We did Take Baht (Giving Alms) and then the kids had a day of water play.  Kiddo loved every minute of it and come bed time, she was done.  Like DONE!  That crash you heard… Yeah, that was Kiddo falling asleep.  HAHA





It was cool to see the event and ceremony.  Also, Kiddo was great.  And very respectful.  You’d think she was Thai with her bow.  Also, I can’t get enough of her in her Songkran shirt.  Couldn’t you just eat her up?






Otherwise, someone is excited that a birthday is upcoming.  Goofy girl that she is.






Let’s go, Kiddo… It’s a week off of school and Songkran this week.  After that, it is your birthday and you will turn 6.  It’s a week of celebration ending with your day and that is the best gift mumma and I can ask for.  Love you, Kiddo, and we hope you are just as good at being 6 as you were at being 5, but either way, we know it will be a year filled with giggles, cuddles, love, and kiddoness.

Well, we WILL be in BKK for one more year. We'd be happy to have y'all again and take you. There's a cat cafe and a bird cafe as well. Skip the food and culture; we'll give you the menagerie cafe tour. ;P

Working on setting this up and making it more to our liking and style.  I wanted to get something up, just so we have a placeholder and a little welcome to anyone coming over and wondering if this is really A, J, or the Kiddo. Also, it gives me a chance to try putting some media up as well.  Pics AND Videos???  Can it really be???? Cheers fro now and we'll be back to write more later.  Have a great day and thanks for poking us here to see that we are all still ok.

On being brave

I was laying in bed the other night and I was just awake and thinking.  I was thinking, specifically, about Kiddo and how brave she is in a lot of ways.  Moving across the world with J and I (not that she had much choice) was brave.  Quarantine.  Going to a school with mostly Thai kids.  Making friends.  Losing her tooth.  All of it.  She is so brave.   Even her attitude.  That want to see more of the world and to explore it.  Her willingness to go to markets with J and myself and eat bugs.  Last summer in Vietnam and just trying pho or banh mi while we walked down a street.  Getting lost with J in the rain in HCMC and having that adventure.  Her excitement to travel 30,000 miles this summer.  Her excitement for Shanghai and wondering how it will be different, better/worse, and what kind of ‘interesting and fun things to do” once we get there.   As I lay in the dark being a proud papa, I couldn’t help b...

A weekend in the life of Kiddo

We have our LA and SF trips set.  We are going to find some time this week to plan and set the Wisco trip and then the Mexico trip, but one step at a time.  J is looking at properties in MX for us and we will book that all soon.  Then, it’s just tying up life here, selling off our stuff, packing and getting ready to move and then it’s just airplanes, airports, and adventures. It’s not all busy work though.  We are still having some fun.   J needed to go to school on Saturday to drop off some of Kiddo’s stuff that she is repurposing to her classroom.  Puzzles and books that Kiddo aged out of and what better place than a Kindergarten classroom.  Perfect solution and better than trudging them into town and getting next to nothing selling them for credit only to acquire more books to drag around the world.  New books can wait for Shanghai, if at all, because J and I are on Kindles and Kiddo is mainly on the iPad and Epic for her books.  The l...
