3 Months!!!


Yep, it's true!  3 months have passed since this little man's enterance into the outside world.  He's smiling so much and making more and more noises.  He's sleeping great and he's so much fun to have in our family!  We love this little guy!

TCKs

TCK stands for Third Culture Kids.  TCKs are people who spent a significant part of their childhood (before the age of 18) in a culture that was not one of their parents'.  Looks like my kids fit that description!  Here's a video I came across that shows a glimpse of what life looks like for those kids - specifically why it is so hard for them to say where "home" is.

Barcelona

Last week we got to go to Barcelona!  Jonah and I first attended a women's conference with women from our organization.  It was such a great time!  Super encouraging and a lot of fun!


Then my wonderful and brave husband drove TWELVE hours with the girls and met Jonah and I there for a long weekend.  We had a great time together.  It's always good to get away and  something out of the normal routine.  Here's some pictures from the weekend.

The Olympic Stadium

Dunkin Donuts!!! We don't have these here!

Balloon hats and getting as many kids on the stroller as we could!

Little man was a great traveler!

Happy girls!

The statue guy.  We really thought he was actually a statue at first!

We didn't manage to get a picture of the whole family... We have to work on that!

It was a fun weekend!  Vacation with kids goes at a whole different speed.  We just take things slowly and figure that we won't actually see and do a whole lot. Then whatever we do see is a bonus!
