Toby-glish

Sometimes it's cute when a little kid is learning new words and they get the word slightly wrong but that's ok they'll get it sooner or later. Well that's what we thought with Toby...except he's now 2-1/2 and the words are not slightly off they are off. They are spoken clearly and plainly. These are his words and he's sticking with em...Below is a sampling of some of the words you will need to know when conversing with the Tobster:

Hi = Yes
Tag = Blanket
Beep = Pacifier
Nanny = Candy
Dude = Graeme
Boom = Cars or Trucks
Boom Boom = Motorcycle
Guys = Fisher Price Little People
Bob = Any Drink ie Milk, Juice, Pop etc.
Chocolate Bob = Chocolate Milk
Toby's Bed = Mom and Dads Bed

Korea Visit

So after 16 years of my parents living over seas in Asia we decided to finally pay them a visit to see what all of the hubbub is about. With my parents mission winding itself down in the next few month's (July 1st) we figured this may be our last chance to get to see them where what we've only heard so much about. It was a ten day whirlwind of site seeing, flavors and activities which has left us with some wonderful memories. These pictures are of our visit to a Buddhist temple site where we saw over 100,000 Buddah statues. Many of which were golden. I felt a little like Kung Fu Panda when Graeme challenged me to a race up the stairs to the top of one of the temples (large granite stone stairs...probably about 1000) which left me slightly winded. Couldn't let the little stinker beat me...Fortunatly I beat him by just enough to let him know that I've still got it!

Snow Day

Any day is a good day to take a snow day. Next year we hope to do it as a whole Family. Toby will be 3...what do you think. Since the Dad's spent most of the time helping the girls get their legs under them the Mom's traded days watching the little ones so they could get out too. Dad (me) as usual was the best skiier on the Mtn. Mom (jen) looks the part so that counts. Graeme's starting to tear it up and likes to get in as many runs as daylight will allow and Annie looking pretty good for only her second trip out. Toby looks like a marshmallow man in his snow suit...
