the aftermath

I love this picture of Mimi and Ruby.

And this one too - Ruby's expression cracks me up.

Snuggled up on the couch watching the Lion King. Jack looks pretty happy.

Luci loves to help give Ruby baths and she's so good at it - she's super gentle and talks to Ruby in a soothing voice -it's really cute to watch.

The Dr. Seuss washcloths and towel are from Paw-Paw and Qing. I can't take Ruby seriously in this towel.

Aren't they so cute?

Kai and Luci were playing Legos when I took this shot. Luci loves Legos - this obviously makes Kai very happy - I'm impressed she has the attention span and concentration to sit there and play with them for long stretches.

Luci with her new Tag reader from Aunt Heather, Uncle Jeff and Eme. She loves this as well and can entertain herself nicely by listening to the stories.

We all went out to lunch for sushi and Luci brought her camera - she took several great shots of the restaurant and her fellow diners - so what if heads are cut off? I'll have to dedicate a post to all her photographs.

Some photos taken with our new camera post-Christmas. We were lucky enough to have Mimi and Poppi with us for a few more days after the holiday madness. This enabled us to all relax and enjoy playing with our new toys.
