Mary and Joseph go to Thailand

Julianna’s language ability continues to explode. It’s amazing what she can express now that she couldn’t say just one week ago when we arrived in Thailand. The funny quotes continue, of course…. My favorite so far this week: “Mary and Joseph take a trip, go to Thailand”. Seems she just got her own trip to Thailand mixed in with the details of the story, and, before you know it, Mary and Joseph are headed to Thailand for the birth of baby Jesus!

She’s a very protective big sister too. “Don’t be sad Lydia. It’s ok. Ju-nanna’s here.” Matt laughs and wonders how Lydia can possibly be comforted by the presence of a big sister who can’t even pronounce her own name!

Lydia is a gem. She spends most of her day either sleeping or smiling. I haven’t taken her in the pool yet – the water temp is a little chilly, even though the air temperature is quite warm. She sits poolside in the stroller while Julianna wades and I chat with other moms. I’ll wait until we get down to the islands to take Lydia for her first dip.
