Bangkok Week 849

October 3, 2024

We had another busy weekend this week: a posh birthday party on Saturday, and then a playdate with P’Kate on Sunday. Plus swimming and swimming meant that when Monday rolled around, it was time to rest! And the Halloween Hedgehogs are slowly but surely starting to take shape…

We thought, yay! We have the whole yard to ourselves!

Playing in the "garden" before saying good-bye.

Lucy's entertaining herself nicely after school.

Albeit messily.

Arlo's getting a first look at his hedgehog costume, which is still very much work-in-progress.

Two blooms today! Almost missed them!

Oh my! That is a very messy tooth-brushing, Lucy!

A new balloon for the new weekend.

Off to swimming in style.

Arlo's writing birthday cards for Brooklyn and Bona.

Lucy is driving the Zamboni!

Looking at the wildlife photography book together.

Wake up, sleepy head! Time to go party!

It was a pool party...

... plus a magician and balloon artist.

Lucy was very pleased with her cat.

Everyone's lined up to watch the magic show.

Arlo and Martin are entertained.

Where did that bird come from?

Lucky Brooklyn, got his own BMW!

Lucy really couldn't wait to sneak a peak. And a ride.

Getting ready for a morning ride around the Moo Baan.

And then, P'Kate and her family arrived.

Lucy and Arlo haven't seen P'Kate since February.

Playing games altogether...

... and having an early lunch.

Three monkeys.

Lunch was so early, there's time to get another round in at the playground.

Boo! Look at this little monkey who snuck up behind me.

Mimicking the photo on Mum's keychain.

Arlo, just hanging out.

Yuri found this beetle at the pool side. So, putting him back in the garden.

Special treat! Mint chocolate chip blizzard!

And fresh broccoli.

Nap time for everyone!

And a quick dip before dinner.

Lucy enjoyed the neighbor's unicorn, which they accidentally left behind.

Captain Underpants, and his apprentice.

She's learning from the finest.

Japan, here we come!

To start the week right, Lucy's partaking in the art project on Arlo's side.

They're decorating rain drops...

To attach to this umbrella.

Rain rain, go away!

Strong Lucy! Using the bridge like parallel bars.

And swinging on two rope swings at once.

Now playing with the new water toy on Arlo's side... and we haven't even made it to Lucy's side yet!

Ahoy matey, one outfit change later.

This morning, Arlo's coming to Lucy's side to drop her off.

Practicing her monkey swings.

Home after a long day.

Working on his coloring.

Playing in the sandbox, next to 18-month-olds.

Here's Tarzana.

Lucy! What happened to your clothes!?

And a quick trip to the doctor for her 2.5-year checkup and vaccines.

Brave Lucy, heading home.

And our flags for international day have arrived in the mail. Almost ready! Stay tuned.
