currently the apartment is going through a minor change. our patio area HAD a flower bed that was taken out yesterday. at first dave and i were shocked and kinda mad they had to take out our only green area (really it was dirt with old trees in it), i was working on putting in flowers…my new hobby. anyway, they decided it had to be taken out because the roots from the 2 ficus trees were causing the drains below to clog up. they are supposed to come back and paint the dirt stained walls and put the ficus trees in pots, but they have not showed up yet.
we have some friends in town on their vacation from Brazil. we have enjoyed re-uniting with them from our FPO (missionary training in Virginia) days. we watched their 2 kids last night, and had so much fun!
the kids are doing great! noah is cruising along holding on to the furniture taking his cute “bambie” like steps. he’ll have 2 more teeth coming in soon, on top…making a total of 4 teeth so far. his hair is coming in slowly, totally blond! his eyes are still blue…looking like my dad. we’re planning his first birthday with another family friend of ours…Lucas was born a day, if not hours, after Noah…
ezie is FULL OF MORE ENERGY! we are re-thinking preschool for a few hours every morning, closer to our apartment. he needs it, and we need it! he’s a wonderful big brother…crawling on the floor, saying “vamos Noie”. they play so well together! we are working on sharing…he’s doing really well. he’ll sit on the floor, back towards Noah and play with cars or blocks and then Noah will try to see what Ezra is doing and then Ezra will give him one toy, after I ask him to share with Noah

i want to post pictures, but our camera is dying a slow death. first the flash stopped working and then the video stopped and now the screen is showing lines…not good!
dave is battling a sinus infection…poor guy has symptoms that are too gross to post. me, my hair is longer…that’s about it for me. we are very excited to be going to the Hillsong-United concert this Saturday night!
