It's been FOREVER





...and way too much cute stuff flew by unchronicled as Ida went from infant to INSANELY cute toddler. Following the lead of her brother, she did amazing things like throw our digital camera into the bathtub, add the word "Bobo," from our favorite book "Hug," to her 3 word vocabulary (Dada, Mama, and Da), and take hold/drop/throw everything and anything that is not nailed down or locked-up.

Jonah is still unbelieveably sweet, though he now fights tooth and nail anything that keeps him from playing with his Thomas the Tank Engine trains -- i.e. usually leaving the house or going to bed. At threee and a half he's reading letters, his German language is really quite amazing, and he comes home with songs and expressions we have no idea where they come from. The other day he asked Kirsten if she wanted to hear the sound of his penis -- and then made this ssssssssssss sound -- no idea where that one came from.

The last pictures I uploaded before Ida submerged our camera are from an INCREDIBLE trip we took to Costa Rica to Manuel Antonio Nat'l Park and to the volcano/mountainous region near Arenal over X-mas. It was a spectacular trip and it was great to be able to travel with the kids.
