Moshe proofing

I have been making steps down the hill at the front of the house and Moshe has gotten into the habit of walking up to the edge at the top and throwing things down. Since it is a 15ft sheer drop we were a little afraid that one of these days he'd throw himself down with the sticks and stones. We figured a railing from bamboo would do the trick, so I set out to make such a railing. We thought it would slow him down just enough for us to catch him.


Not so, instead of walking up to the edge he now just climbs down the path. The other day we lost track of Savita and Moshe for a split second.


We found them together at the bottom of the hill, where Savita is in this last picture. We're now thinking of just buying both of them crash helmets.

3 yrs old

Prepping for the big day. It is hard to believe that the baby in the picture above is the same as the girl in the last picture of this post. Time truly flies.


The Cake: Chocolate of course


Princess Savita on her steed. Because she just got the bike this morning we let her bike inside the house before going to school. When Savita came back from school, I'd already put the bike outside to her dismay, she wanted the bike back inside. I told her no, because bikes belong outside. She wanted the bike inside, because she was afraid the tires would get dirty.


We were asked by the school to provide a couple of pictures for her birthday celebration at school. So we put some pics together and made it into a little book for the teacher to read to the other kids in the class.

With a full set of hair
and a little pop she was there
Out of her mom's belly she came
Savita was her name

She would eat, sleep, poop and pee
and now all of a sudden she is three

First Savita had to learn how to crawl
roll over like a ball
She'd try to walk, wobble and fall

On her first cake
one candle was all it took
Is that chocolate on her nose? Look!

Savita figured out how to walk
and my goodness TALK
She now also has a little brother
and sometimes she thinks she is his mother

Birthday number two of you know who
Guess what kind of cake? Come on, guess
If you said chocolate I'd say, YES

Savita now pastes, draws, sews,
and whatever else who knows

Three years old today
Hip hip hooray

We are wondering what to bake
Maybe we should make.....

CHOCOLATE CAKE

Dare Devil

Proof they made it Saipan.

On Mount Topochau with the whole fam. before we got chased away by the rain. Perfectly nice day until we made it to the top. As soon as we parked the car the clouds started moving in, obscuring the view too.


Savita happy that her grandparents are visiting
