The Adventures of Turbo and Pinky http://www.turboandpinky.com Tue, 17 Aug 2010 08:04:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 en Lamb chop, anyone? http://www.turboandpinky.com/2010/08/17/lamb-chop-anyone/ http://www.turboandpinky.com/2010/08/17/lamb-chop-anyone/#comments Tue, 17 Aug 2010 08:04:31 +0000 Gloria http://www.turboandpinky.com/2010/08/17/lamb-chop-anyone/ It’s been a hot summer with little reprieve…but occasionally we’re blessed with the perfect blue sky day.  This past Sunday, we enjoyed good friends, good food, and water fun at the pool at the Doubletree Hotel. :)

The kids are adjusting well.  The boys enjoy their new kindergarten and are speaking so much more Chinese.  (Trey wants everyone to know they got a bunk bed, they live next to the playground, and they love their new apartment.) Meanwhile, Mia is able to move just about anywhere she wants to by rolling.

Here are a few more pics from the last month and a half (I’ve got to get better at uploading pics more regularly):

We are crazy busy over here, starting a business and moving to the other side of town.  We’ll give a more substantial update soon, but just wanted to announce the good news.

Come visit again soon…pictures to come (they are on the other computer).

As you can see here, the boys love staying in their jammies on non-school days:

The boys went to a children’s Christmas party hosted by some good neighbor friends (check out the Santa suit they got back in the States!)…

…followed by another friend’s birthday party (Mia and Mommy missed out on a lot of special treats that day).

But they’re enjoying the special treat of staying home together…

Can you see my gray eyes?  (We’re trying to catch them before they turn brown like my brothers).

Mom enjoys taking pictures of me in the same position over and over again since I can’t protest yet.
