Rainy Day Guests

It was just a normal rainy Saturday afternoon. Cliff was yelling at the kids (and me) to get off our butts and do our chores. Lacy was sent downstairs to throw some trash out when we heard her yell, "There's ducks in the pool!" She was very excited. I was too! What a fun discovery!?

Lunar New Year

Happy Lunar New Year! We celebrated with family and did our traditional bowing.

The kids bowing to us:


Kids bowing to Halmony and Grandpa (with our assistance):

Cousin Amy curled Lacy's hair. She loved it. And doesn't she look so cute?!

Well...

We found out today that we will have a baby girl joining us in July. I was hoping for a boy--it would have made sleeping arrangements easier. And well, I've enjoyed Wesley's lack of dramatics that seem to be innate in my girls.

But I'll count my blessings. Baby girl is healthy. Lacy is thrilled. And baby girl clothes are WAY cuter than baby boy clothes. ;)

Mr. Bear comes to visit

The coveted Mr. Bear...



for the last week, Lacy has been whining and crying that she hasn't had a turn to take home Mr. Bear. Well, she finally got her turn and she couldn't have been more thrilled! We made sure to do some of Lacy's favorite things while Mr. Bear was over. This included eating plain noodles for dinner and renting a DVD from Redbox.

Lacy, I LOVE YOU!
