Amelia's First Trip to the Dentist

After nearly two and a half hours in traffic to get to our dental appointments, we nearly turned around. But then we would have missed this...

Amelia loved the entire experience, which tells you that her teeth were in tip top shape. She found out that she has ten teeth on the bottom and ten on the top, which was very exciting. After her cleaning was done, she came and watched me get polished up. It was great to have her perched high on my stomach, peering into my mouth while squealing, "Your teeth are blue and your tongue is red!" 

Scootin' & Skatin'

Just cruisin' around on a Friday afternoon.

The Pampered Life

Amelia enjoyed her first cream bath at a local salon with a mommy and a friend last week. She smiled from start to finish and just loved every single moment. How could you not? Getting your hair washed and head, neck, shoulders and arms massaged is pretty wonderful. This is definitely something I will miss next year, but I will happily trade all this pampering for parks and clean air:)

Why Not?

Why not wear a princess dress and hat to school for the day? Sometimes I feel like I am living with my childhood self! Amelia wanted to wear her princess flower costume and hat to school and I was all for it. I mean, why not?!? It was so great to see the librarian's reaction when she walked in. Amelia kept her outfit on, which was overtop of her shorts and t-shirt, the entire day. She has worn it once more to school since these photos were taken. 

"I Got All Wet!"

Little Bryce was so delighted when he "got all wet" that he kept circling the splash pad to tell me all about it...take a look.

Long weekends are good for...

In honor of Labor Day, we had Friday off from school, which meant that we had an extra day of family time to enjoy...

Sand Play

Rainbow sand mixed with colored rice and pasta - a wonderful sensory experience!

A Trip to the Playground

This is a private park that requires an entrance fee. 

Unfortunately, public playgrounds do not exist in Jakarta.

I'd say from their smiles and squeals, it was worth every cent!

And lots of quality time together!
