Bumble Tots

 There is a new indoor play area near us; Bumble Tots. We've been enjoying the space to play with the weather being cold and rainy. Max took a great nap when we were there with friends this week. We won't be there tons because its a bit pricey, but its a great place during the winter.

 There are great tunnels, slides, and a ball pit, but Jack spends most of his time driving this car around.

here's a video of Jack enjoying the space!

Run!

 I did it! Yesterday I ran in my first race...Several friends and I signed up in Oct. to run the Standard Charter 10K here in Hong Kong. Max was two weeks old when I registered, so this has been my incentive to get back in shape, post-baby!

Here I am picking up my race pack last weekend.  It was all very organized, but with 67,000 people running you have to be!

here we are on the train, 4:45 am! The trains opened early on Sunday just for the race. I couldn't believe how crowded they were!

Before the race, posing with this nice shoe :o)

At the start line, getting ready... all 7-10 thousand of us :o) Our race started at 5:45am!

Finished! It took me 1:01:53 to finish. It was SO congested, it was hard to pick up the pace. My goal was under an hour, but didn't quite get that..partly due to the fact that it was SO crowded. I was pleased with the time in the end. 

It was so fun running with these great friends! Getting up at 3:45, traveling an hour to the start, running in the cold/dark/drizzle wouldn't have been fun without them!

The best part; breakfast afterwards!!

Sleepy boy...

 

 This is what I found when I walked into the room after hanging laundry this afternoon. A tired boy, taking a nap... On the couch, on a VERY old pillow case (that he loves), on top of a poor baby doll. I knew he was really out because his thumb had fallen out of his mouth. So I scooped him up and took him to bed. LOVE HIM!

Happy Valentines Day!

Happy Day! Here's our pretty Valentines treat of the year!

Oh, and we had a little pre-valentines accident last night. Its not swollen anymore, just a bruise today :o) Silly walls! They should not run into Jack's head.

Hope you got to spend the day with those you LOVE!

Max

 

Here's the newest shots of our littlest one. Don't you just want to squeeze him!? :o)



Our Fabulous Friday!

The week off with Bryan home was wonderful! We loved having him around  and spending time with him all week long. We spent lots of time with friends and just relaxed!

On Friday we all slept in (which never happens!) then headed out to Sai Kung for hiking and dinner.

We tried out a new pizza place there.

They sell 24" pizzas! Oh boy! We took the leftovers home and had two more meals with it :o)

We ended the day by getting Jack a new bike. Thanks grandma and grandpa for the Christmas money!!!

Jack is in love, if only he could actually peddle:o)
