The Emperor's New Clothes

Oddly enough, I don't have much to post! We've had a busy few days. Saturday was the first communion of the son of our good friends, Tom & Cherylann. They had a party at their house afterwards and all I can say is that they sure do know how to throw a good party! We met some new friends, ate some GREAT food and the kids enjoyed playing with all the other kids. As you can see below, Micaela is trying to learn how to crawl. I think we're still a ways away, but she's getting the idea.



Rafa & Gabriela are pretty much just up to their old tricks. Here's a funny story though...
Gabriela gets a kick out pretending to be other people lately. Since the kids enjoy watching the Mozart movie – her current character of choice is the emperor of Vienna. So when I ask her, “Gab, would you like some scrambled eggs?” She says, “No Alla. Emperor!” Ok, I say. “EMPEROR, would you like some scrambled eggs?” When she’s “in character,” she takes every opportunity to remind you that she’s the Emperor and not Gabriela. This is all fine and good until you’re in a very busy grocery store and other shoppers look at you funny when you say, “No, Emperor, we can’t buy ice cream today.”
