Van

Ohhhh the frustrations of not quite being able to pull ones self up but, he still did manage to get the remote.  Like the gate in the background, it slows Van down when he wants to get the TV and the stack of DVD's.


Van and Oskar enjoying the beautiful spring weather.
 Wanna share??
 They were both quite content picking at the grass and yes, occasionally eating some.  Oh the horror, Van doesn't have socks on!  My neighbors are often quite concerned at how Van is dressed or not dressed.  Right now the Slovenes all most all have jackets on while the Americans are in short sleeves.

Spring, is that you??

I am soooo ready for Spring!  Last week the weather was beautiful, the sun was out and the temperatures were in the 40's and 50's.  On Friday I took the kids to a park near the Embassy to play while we waited for Eric to get off work.


The dragon is very symbolic for Ljubljana and everywhere.  This is on a post in the park.

Checking out the tunnels.
Not sure if this is meant to be art or a climbing obstacle...

On Saturday we went to McDonalds and did rode on the bumper cars

Yeah! Spring is here!

The weather has been absolutely beautiful here lately! The sun is out, the tulips are popping out, things are starting to turn green, and all the street cats seem to be waddling around with big fat bellies... Not surprising but a lot of the the kids in the park are still dressed for a blizzard and I get quite a few raised eyebrows at Keenan unpreparedness (no hat, no snowsuit, small sweatshirt hoodie for a jacket) should that blizzard strike us unsuspectingly while we are at the park.

We have been enjoying the much needing sunshine and spending most of Keenan's waking hours at the park which makes for one grimy sand covered kid. Keenan favorite at the park seems to be the slides, followed by making sand angels. Of course, everywhere we go we have to bring at least one little auto.
On Sunday while at the park we ran into one of my friends from play group and her son. Funny story: My friend was married the day before Eric and I and their son was also born 9 months after the "I do's" were said which makes him born one day before Keenan. Here's the two honeymoon babies playing together... well kind of fighting over the ball.
Yesterday at the park Keenan must of felt like it was snack time. He spotting a man opening up a fresh bag of potato chips, ran over, stuck his hand in the bag and helped himself. Kind of embarrassing! At least the guy thought it was funny. I guess I'll should start having those talks about not taking candy (food) from strangers...

The other day there was that deafening silence in the house that meant Keenan was busy doing something... At least it was a washable bathtub crayon!
