Ponds, Valentime's Day, & Beco Carrier is the Bane of my Existence

In seattle. Our hotel was about 1/2 mile from PP Market so I brought the Beco, and thank goodness I did! The whining and slow walking are very tiresome...more tiresome than carrying him on my back. Dae and I thought for SURE we would not bring the Beco to Europe but now I think we are reconsidering, for our own sanity. 

Leelee made the front page of the Tri-City Herald on Monday. They get so excited about these fun after-school programs and there have been some really cool ones (geology, engineering, computer science, yoga, dance, rock painting, knitting, mountains, fish, soil...)

I wrote earlier about Olin always looking out of the corner of his eye. He always turns his head to the right and looks to the left.

Every day I do pick-up, I pick up Olin and Claira first, and they climb around and laugh and play and yell in the car while we wait for the older boys' pick-up. When it's sunny they stick their heads out of the sun roof. 

Funny things:

Olin says "ponds" for chess "pawns" and ValentiMe's Day instead of ValentiNe's Day.

Christian told me that "Broc at school is the oldest person in our class. And, his thighs are this big." as he creates a big circle with his hands.
