Introducing Sean Joshua McEwen

Your new brother arrived April 12th 2010 at 7:05am. You got to meet him later that day. I'm not quite sure how this blog is going to change now that their are two of you but but I'm sure you two are going to have lots of adventures together. Love you both so much - mom and dad

Nothing like knit in the Bangkok heat!

Grand Palace with the Grandparents

It was a hot hot hot day ... and there was lots of gold!

Farthing Grandparents in Bangkok!

Finally they have arrived! Who'd have thought they would have made it half way around the world but they are here and you are having so much fun with them. Bubble wrap! The hide and seek egg! The sweets! Peeps even!

Easter Brunch 2010

Just a week before the arrival of the new baby brother, we decided to go to a nice hotel and have an Easter brunch. We choose this hotel because they advertised "child friendly" activities. So we whisked you off with a brand new Easter dress and sunglasses to a fun filled morning of balloon animals, face painting, a bouncy castle that you were a wee too small for (but we figured out a way for you to participate), a magician, and an egg hunt. There were close to fifty other kids and they quickly ran out of baskets even before it started so we shuffled you into the area early before they started to give you an edge. The food was incredible and I know you would have loved the dessert area ... we tried everything they had!

These are attempts at getting an Easter brunch photo ... you just were not having it.

My shoes! Geeeeeechs!

No comment!! Not very lady like!

we so serious? CHHHHHEEEESE!

What's this? nooooo!!!!

Maybe next time...

First Movie Experience

We took you to How to Train Your Dragon and you loved it. This is after a full day of no-napping and being wheeled all over the mall but you held up well. Before going into the theater though we had a bit of a worry when you started whining about not getting a cherry Icee and juju bees but after a little explaining that we weren't in the states you calmed down. Actually you sat in mom's lap the whole time and ohhed and ahhed and were pretty excited through the entire movie. At least there were no previews or commercials because that might have put you over. We did have some caramel corn and pretzel sticks but we did not have to break out the m&m's.No we didn't see it in 3D but we did see some 3-d TVs at the mall and they made us queasy enough not to want to see dragons in 3D. The movie was surprisingly awesomerific.... it's amazing what they can do these days!

m&m fishing

I don't quite know how to explain this one to you E, but dad sure loves doing it. You see, well .. we are on vacation and .... no I won't try to dignify this one. Love you bunches and probably love candy as much as yo do as well.
