Visiting the Utah State Fair

School Bus

When we were in town, this was a special experience each day... walking to and from the school bus stop with Priya and the other kids. Taj would come along too. Priya loved riding the bus so much, that on one occasion when Mommy stopped at the school and offered her a ride home, she turned it down. She didn't want to miss that ride on the School Bus!!

It's been too long since I made a scrapbook page. This is a picture that I took of Taj recently, and he stuck this ball up in front of his face-which ended up making a very interesting picture {at least to me.} Remember, you can click on these to enlarge...

Kids on Bikes

Priya and Taj just LOVE to ride their bikes! You can find them most evenings riding out in front of the house with neighborhood kids.

These are the legs of a little boy who is riding his bike now without training wheels! He is very courageous, and just gets right back on his bike when he falls. He is all boy!!

We had to fly back home on Sunday, so last minute we squeezed in a few family photos.
Us with the grandkids...

Picture of Mommy and baby, who are both doing wonderful!

And the whole K family. This is one remarkable family!! We enjoyed our visit and it was hard to leave.
We invited Erica to make entries on this blog and keep us up to date on how the family is doing!

NO TRAINING WHEELS

Here's a little music video showing Taj learning to ride his bike without training wheels. I realize not everyone will like the song and it's pushing the limits for me, too, but the kids love it.

The Training Wheels are Off!

Taj asked Daddy to take the training wheels off his little bicycle. Keep in mind that he turned three years old, less then three months ago... Well, with just 5 minutes of Daddy's help, he was off and riding on his own! He is amazing! He can go up and down inclines, and go fast, and do circles... and today he did a skidding stop...
Yes, he does take a spill now and again, but he even does that gracefully, and then just gets right back on his bike.

Bapa has been enjoying the morning walks to the bus stop with Priya. She loves riding on the bus with her friends.

... here are some sweet new girly things that Anu Bua sent to Asha. Won't she look just precious in them?!!

And here is the sweet little angel at nine days. I can almost picture a halo above her head in this pose.

Just a few photos...

Taj was beaming when he arrived home from pre-school today, with his craft project in tow.

Look at this little bundle of sweetness!! Asha is a snuggler, and a stretcher. She reminds us of baby Priya when she stretches. Although she looks beautiful in any color that she is dressed in, I think pink is perfection on her!

In daddy's arms she looks especially tiny, don't you think?
