long weekend

Somehow, I always seem to get better pictures of other kids than I do of Dylan. So many of his pictures are just blurry (but still cute, of course).

Anyway, this weekend was very busy, starting with a playground picnic date with Taliana and ending with Sunday games night with a gaggle of friends at HAT’s house. These are just a few of my favorite pictures from this weekend.

Playing peek-a-boo at the Ethiopian restaurant we went to with Eleanor, Mark and Yuchen and Heather and Taliana. We spent the earlier part of Saturday at the museum, checking out the special Chinese New Year and Dental Health day activities.

Among other things, Dylan practiced his tooth-brushing techniques on a rather large set of false teeth…and he painted on himself and on a small square of red paper.

It was a very nice surprise to be joined by Eleanor and Mark and Yuchen!

Playing Taliana’s Nino Conillo game at Sunday games night.

The big folks played two games of Shadows over Camelot followed by a game of Arkadia.

Everyone there would love to claim the kids got along swimmingly, freeing the adults up for trouble-free game play, but alas, that wasn’t so.

The two kids clearly love each other, but this was a night of much, much tension and conflict over moon sand molds, dollhouse accessories, plastic cooking utensils, mega blocks, and just about anything and everything that Dylan touched!

At the end of the night, though, they still love each other (kinda like bro and sis).

Playing cymbals (love for these wonderful musical instruments inspired by reading Bunbun at Bedtime!

Yes, this was very loud, but this din is preferable to the din of two kids screaming over the same toy.

As usual, more pictures are on flickr.
