Bangkok Week 716 March 17, 2022 Another low-key week, as Arlo recovers from his string of colds/viruses. But that doesn’t mean we just sat around at home! View fullsize We begin our Friday with a trip to the doctor, to investigate Arlo's prolonged digestive challenges. View fullsize Arlo enjoys visiting the hospital now, because it always includes a trip to the "mini-park", thanks to Dad's privilege. View fullsize Checking out the fountains with Dad. View fullsize And doing a tour of the mini-park. It's just the right size! View fullsize Back at home, Granny gives Arlo his very own Baby to take care of. View fullsize Teaching Arlo how to hold Baby. View fullsize Lying nicely with Baby. View fullsize The next morning: taking a conference call on Mum's headset. He's a pro! View fullsize Enjoying one of Yaa's cookies for breakfast. View fullsize Since Arlo is skipping swimming today, we can fit in a Saturday morning trip to the park! View fullsize They moved the double-seater see-saws from the other playground into this one. It's a novel addition! View fullsize Hmm, this looks a little imbalanced. View fullsize Cooling down with Granny's soda water. View fullsize Riding one of the new spring-loaders, but wishing he were on a different one? View fullsize And the other playground got a whole new jungle gym! Trying out one of the many new slides. View fullsize Everyone do the hip twist! View fullsize Mr. Monkey, hanging on the rings (all by himself). View fullsize Doing a late-afternoon stroll around the block for some fresh air. View fullsize And spending Sunday morning at our favorite store: Decathalon! View fullsize Playing hand ball with Granny. View fullsize Trying in-line skates for the first time. It's harder than it looks ;) View fullsize And this inflatable kayak was just put on display at the front of the store. Arlo approves! View fullsize Letting the music take control, once we get home. View fullsize And a late-afternoon trip to the farm is always a nice way to close out the weekend. View fullsize Group shot! View fullsize Granny got an unsolicited new friend! View fullsize Arlo's psyched with his new badminton set from Decathalon. View fullsize They might have even gotten a volley going! View fullsize Concentrating hard. View fullsize The two athletes. Better start training now for the Olympics. Competition is tough in this part of the world! View fullsize And no trip to the farm is complete without an ice cream break! View fullsize Once again, Arlo downs a whole cup of mint chocolate chip, without any assistance. View fullsize Last stop: to feed the goats and sheep. View fullsize Today, the animals were lucky: there was some special cabbage on the ground. View fullsize Team work. View fullsize And morning glory: another delicacy. View fullsize The sheep were more interested than the goats, this time. View fullsize Arlo is a professional animal feeder now! View fullsize Good night, good night construction site! View fullsize A photo from school this week, playing outside with his friends. View fullsize March 14th: we officially have a 2 1/2 year old!

View fullsize A scoot around the block with Dad is the way to close out the day. View fullsize Take that back: being pushed on Dad's scooter is even better! View fullsize Arlo's new favorite toy: potatoes! View fullsize Very excited that his front-end loader can hold up a potato! (His idea.) View fullsize Oh my! It can also drive over the potato! View fullsize Wednesday, we need to have weekly PCR tests done now, since we're within 2 weeks of our due date! So pleasant! View fullsize While waiting for the tuk-tuk home, Arlo drives us around in the school van. View fullsize And tries on a nice hat. View fullsize Going home, vroom vroom! View fullsize And showing off the remnants of his Toji-kun hairdo, for book day. See you next week!
