Arlo and Lucy are lucky to have Yaa here for another week! We’ve started to go for evening stroller walks with Lucy, now that the days are longer and she can sit still a bit. And Arlo has a playdate with a friend he hasn’t seen in ages!
(NB: we know this week is 1 day short. We’ll lump our entire Trat visit together in next week’s album 😉)

No shortage of content in this book.

Getting in on tummy time with Lucy.
View fullsize

Aww, what big brotherly love.
View fullsize

Is Lucy old enough to play with Arlo now?
View fullsize

He's very endearing, in his own ways.
View fullsize

And now: concentrating really hard on his cars.

Continuing on the theme at swimming.

Big Saturday smile!
View fullsize

Hanging out at the new house.
View fullsize

Arlo wanted to play tent... so why not play tent there!?
View fullsize

Oh my! Is this what a TV is!?
View fullsize

Lucy having her first diaper change at the new house.
View fullsize

And as promised, trying the new swimming pool.
View fullsize

The water is nice and warm... but a huge storm is brewing, so we can't stay in for long.
View fullsize

Big weekend feast thanks to Yaa, back at the Ekkamai house.

Sunday morning. Hey, who bought donuts for breakfast!?
View fullsize

Lucy's enjoying the special breakfast, too.
View fullsize

In case you're wondering... here's how big the "cactus flower" is now!
View fullsize

Another charming smile -- this time, Sunday edition.
View fullsize

Arlo has a make-up swimming lesson today, and he's able to bring Yaa along to observe.
View fullsize

Then at home, it's time to play with *all* the toys.
View fullsize

Reading a scientific magazine with Yaa. Lots of neat pictures!
View fullsize

After carefully studying Mum, Arlo uses a q-tip to clean Baby's eyeball...
View fullsize

... and mouth. Because that's exactly what Mum did to Lucy...
View fullsize

Lunch at Mother May I. Arlo didn't hesitate to join the birthday party in progress.
View fullsize

Not phased at all by the other kids. I guess school has done some good!
View fullsize

Waiting patiently; it's a busy afternoon at the restaurant.
View fullsize

Yay, lunch is here!
View fullsize

Arlo's favorite: the crispy noodles!
View fullsize

Cheese! This photo is 98% table, and 2% diners.
View fullsize

Despite the fans, it's quite hot out here. Lucy's ready to head home.
View fullsize

Arlo and Yaa take one last look at the fish in the fountain.

Everyone's full, and ready for a nap...
View fullsize

... especially this one!
View fullsize

Can you tell which person just inserted themselves into this pow-wow?
View fullsize

More tummy time practice.
View fullsize

Lucy is very good at this now, when using the pillow to support her upper body.
View fullsize

Telling Dad about her exercise regime.
View fullsize

Well that didn't last long. Nap time for everyone!
View fullsize

And a late afternoon scoot around the block.
View fullsize

And for Lucy, it's time for her first walk around the block in the stroller.
View fullsize

This isn't too bad, eh Lucy?
View fullsize

We actually made it around 5 times! Good job!
View fullsize

Meanwhile, the scooter boy was distracting himself with every petal and leaf in the road. So here they are, on lap #1...
View fullsize

Waiting for the boys to catch up.
View fullsize

Oh no! Someone's going to be too big for Yaa soon!
View fullsize

Monday morning... we're all still sharing a bed room, so Arlo invited himself into our bed.
View fullsize

Early to rise, with plenty of time to read books before school.
View fullsize

Chilling together in the sandbox.

Adding his name and self-portrait to one of the outstanding art auction pieces.

Meanwhile at home, someone's gearing herself up for a big morning.
View fullsize

We're off to get her Thai passport.
View fullsize

After a short queue to check in...
View fullsize

... we're immediately whisked into one of a sea of over 50 desks processing applications.
View fullsize

The most time-consuming part was getting a photo of Lucy that was ICAO-compliant. (It took 4 adults, in case you were wondering.)
View fullsize

Phew, that was exhausting. Let's concentrate on these nice colors now.
View fullsize

In fact, it's the first time Lucy is really paying attention to the dangling toys.
View fullsize

Growing into her chair nicely.
View fullsize

A surprise lunch treat is waiting for Arlo...
View fullsize

... a *huge* serving of sticky rice! Chew well!
View fullsize

What a sweet napper. Too bad she only naps on people now.
View fullsize

Awake, and ready for dinner!
View fullsize

But first: a walk. Big Brother Arlo is here to show the way!
View fullsize

In fact, the gang's all here this time.
View fullsize

Arlo is eager to push his sister around.
View fullsize

It'll be even better when he learns to keep his eye on the road!
View fullsize

Tall Tuesday Tummy Time!
View fullsize

Bella's come over to see what the fuss is about.
View fullsize

Yep, Lucy is definitely interested in this toy bar now.
View fullsize

What focus!
View fullsize

And Arlo is happy to help co-push Lucy tonight.
View fullsize

Scrumptious premium donuts from 'Hippo Dough'.
View fullsize

A special treat for everyone.
View fullsize

Arlo couldn't believe it -- donuts after dinner? He had 2 (quarter) pieces.
View fullsize

Oh my. And now it's bedtime?
View fullsize

Lucy's biggest smile always comes when she first wakes up in the morning!
View fullsize

Uh oh! Mum's trying to resume some kind of exercise... while being cautious of gyms. Let's try swimming! (This is going to hurt tomorrow!)
View fullsize

Look who rode home in the bike basket.
View fullsize

After almost 2 years, Arlo had a playdate with his friend Quinn.
View fullsize

Finally, someone who's taller than he is!
View fullsize

And we conclude this week with some more tummy time photos.
View fullsize

Hey, this is without pillow support. Not bad!
View fullsize

Keep it up, Lucy! And see you next week!
