SICKNESS

At the moment our whole family is sick. Hopefully this sickness will pass by us quickly. Aurora has the worst of it with fevers,  coughs and a total lack of energy. Then there is Clayton with a cough, sleeplessness and whining that is completely annoying and only a two year old could accomplish. We have not noticed any fever with him but then again I discovered the thermometer I have been using is broken. When it read the same temperature for all of us when Aurora was as hot as a furnace. So who really knows. Thankfully I had a few other ones on hand. Cameron and I have a cough and are achy. So nothing too major. On the plus side we are getting plenty of cuddling time in...

Year of the Dragon

Happy New Year! This year is the year of the Dragon.


Peoples wishes for the New Year




Clayton's fortune for the year.

Tia's fortune for the year.

Cameron's fortune for the year.
 We then tied our fortunes to the string so that they will come true. We did not get Aurora a fortune because we decided she is just a baby. =)



This is a picture of Mochi (a Japanese rice cake made of glutinous rice pounded into paste and molded into shape. It is a traditional food for the New Year.)


Clayton and I picked out a Bean Paste Mochi and a Lemon Mochi. 



Clayton did not like it. He now calls it Yucky Mochi!

AMERICAN VILLAGE

We decided that we needed to get out of the house and so we decided to go and explore the new area of American Village. American village is an outdoor shopping area with tons of stores and food. It was a fun little outing.


 Clayton loves it when we let him run free places like this. He usually does good at staying near us and stopping when we tell him to. (Or else he has to get into the stroller.)
 Clayton thought this was silly.

 Clayton LOVES hats! So when he saw these he just HAD to try some on.



 After exploring American Village we decided to check out the sea wall right by it. Clayton LOVED walking along the wall.
