just a few...

petey's a happy camper!

Annabella, smiling for the camera


jonathan looks a little curious
and Rebecca is excited!


john baptiste and kervens playing w/ some toys

Kervens, nicot, and Justin, nursery buddies


Maggie had set up a sheet to divide my bed area from the rest of the apt, and put the bench right in front of it. tonight, the wind was blowing...so the kids had fun hiding behind the sheet, and waiting for the wind to blow it.

here's Daniel...


Samara peeking out from under the sheet


and Jonas and Hermann laughing as i would snap pictures when the sheet would expose them
they love to use the shovel to clean up. (colleen, this is a more accurate picture of what the floor looks like!)

Daniel, Hermann, and Elmise pose for a picture

the kids talking to me as i got back from the market


we got to skype with Steven and Belle for a little bit today! the kids were very excited!

everyone loves a good sticker to the face...



Samara went with this approach...

Bethany stuck with keeping them on her forehead

i made a duct tape hat for the boys. it's really not that great, certainly not as good as the Indiana Jones hat, but Jonas makes it look good!!

Fritzson playing w/ the blow up balls



sorry, that's all for tonight. sorry there's no nursery pics, i promise i'll have some for ya tomorrow!
