Magic Kingdom!

We spent the whole day at Magic Kingdom yesterday and we had fun, though we did find it too crowded and the enormous lines exhausting... Nevertheless, it was wonderful to take Daniel and see him experiencing the different rides and attractions for the first time...

Ticket to go in! (Far too expensive Disney!)

 

For me, it was special to see "It's a small world" again -- I remember being enchanted by it at age 5!

 

Nothing Beats Moments Like This...

 

Family finally united. Very happy times!

My Handsome Valentine

This is my Valentine's new look -- photo taken for the website of his new job! What a difference from the t-shirt and jeans he wore to the lab every day for years, right?

I love you, my dear handsome Valentine! Having you in my life is a constant reminder of God's love for me; you are such a gift! Thank you for all that you are!  Happy Valentine's day!

Finally a Big Boy Bed!

One of the highlights of this month is that Daniel said good-bye to his crib and got his own "big boy bed!" I had always hoped that we could keep Daniel in his crib until at least age three, but I did not think that he would love it so much that it would be until almost age 4 that he felt ready to have a proper bed. Well the day finally came and he just loves his new bed!

First Karate Class Video

Photos of our "Karate Kid"

Daniel had his first group karate lesson yesterday, and it was a success! He loved every single minute of it, participated very well and was not at all shy or scared of the novelty.  Here are the highlights of the 30 minute lesson in photos!

Starting next week, lessons will be twice a week for half an hour, probably every Wednesday and Friday evenings. Thankfully the school is only 5 minutes from our house so it's very convenient.

Daniel's "try-out" Karate lesson

We just got back from Daniel's "try-out" Karate lesson with "Mr. Daniel" and he loved it! I filmed the lesson so you get to see it too, enjoy!



After the lesson, he said he wanted to take classes so we signed him up and he got his first ever kimono with white belt -- he looks so cute wearting it!  He will start his first class this coming Friday! He is SO excited and we are too!

The Budding Musicians!

Daniel and Enya were reunited today and had so much fun together! Friends for almost 4 years!
