Hi-ho, Hi-ho, it's back to the Dr. we go....

Yesterday we went to Ocean Park. 
It was so fun, and bittersweet as it's probably one of the last, if not the last time we'll go. 






Then we went out to dinner and had the normal good behavior....





Last night Noah and Luke, who have had deep coughs for a couple days, developed high fevers. 
Today they were diagnosed with Bronchitis. 
Luke isn't really bothered by it. 
At all. 




Noah isn't eating or sleeping. He is refusing his medicine. 
He has a runny nose and is in general miserable. 
They didn't give us anything but dimatap and some paste he refuses to take in any form, so I'll be marching him back down to the dr shortly for more meds shortly.

UPDATE: Noah has RSV. So does Luke. 
And Phil leaves tomorrow for 2 weeks. 
This isn't good. 



In other news...
Magnatiles = AMAZING

I got these off amazon about 9 months ago and they play with them all the time! When we have play dates all the kids love them!!!!
They are so good for creative development and fine motor skills.... and independent play! A real life saver with a sick baby at home
If they weren't so darn expensive I'd buy another set!!! 




Oh and I almost forgot!!!
In the midst of being sick, while sitting on the floor, Noah stood up all by himself and took his first step!
10 months old!!!!!


And check out this blog my dear friend Caroline just started.
Hooray for more bloggers!

The Last Leg

Well, we are on the last last leg of our life here in Hong Kong. Things have been busy to say the least. 
We are having a hard time keeping up.....




We went Strawberry picking and horseback riding in Yuen Long.....











(Whoops!)









We've been trying to play outside as much as possible before we have to go back to the cold....










Luke had a field trip....






Noah is standing and trying hard to walk.....





And I've been trying to exercise without the guilt of leaving the boys



(Phil took this picture from the car. very chivalrous)



We've been hanging with good friends.....





 And we spent Sunday Feb. 23rd walking along the beach and enjoying smoothies and sangria....









4 weeks until we're home!!!!

BK was in HK!!!!

For the past 10 days we've had Bryan Kryder in town visiting! 
We are so grateful he came! He put up with our not always so well behaved kids and took lots of amazing pictures for us that make us appreciate the beauty of HK in a whole new way. But more than anything, it was great to spend so much time with a wonderful friend.
