science lab

We got some dry ice today,

and our kitchen became to a science lab.

The combination of "dry ice + bubble" is a must!

brushing teeth

Before Milo goes to bed, he brushes his friends teeth.

kindred spirits report

Today was the last day of kindred spirits playgroup.

We made some bird feeders with all natural materials 

like leaves, twigs, beeswax, and flowers. 

They turned out pretty good, right?

We hung them on the apple tree.

After that, we played and sang songs under the apple tree.

As usual, we visited some chickens,

and played in the forest too.

Today was the last day, but it has been really nice to join the playgroup

and we really enjoyed to see those happy faces!!!!!

cooking knife

Milo received the kids friendly knife,

and since then, he has used it everyday!

video letter to baba

May 28th was Sachi baba's birthday, 

Milo sent video messages to her.

Milo + Kip

Usually Milo loves Kip much more than Kip loves Milo 

who pulls, pushes and tries to ride on him.

However, they love each other (at least we hope...),

and they are so cute together!

9 years ago...

Silas and Yuri had a first date,

and today they had an anniversary dinner together,

oh yeah, with this dude who was so excited to see his dinner on a boat.

Ok, now they have to try hard to get 10th one ;-)

running hug

Milo has a routine which he follows every night at his bed time...

He changes into his PJs, brushes his teeth, and goes to his bedroom.

He picks his books for the night, and starts doing his,

what he called "running hugs" or "dadadadada (his running sound) hugs."

He makes all his friends sit on his bed and he gives them a hug for a good night.

At the end, he gives the running hugs to his papa and mama and lies down on his bed.

It is super cute but it sometime takes forever for him to complete the whole routine

and his papa and mama have to wait for it...

peace sign

Yuri was taking Milo's photos while he was on his car.

Milo started saying "peeeeeeace"

and tried to make a peace sign...

Then he did this and screamed "peace!"

How cute was it!?

home gymnastic session

checking the weather

Lucius!

When we were having a lunch on Alberta,

we ran into Saori and Lucius.

Of course, they were so happy to see each others and started playing.

MILO!

Oaks Park

We went to Oaks Park with the Eberly family.

It was the family roller skate day, and Milo tried roller skating for the first time.

Penny was pretty good at it.

Oops.

Actually it was really fun.

Milo was walking with his roller skates for entire time, but he seemed to like it too.

Also, Milo enjoyed some rides there.

It is always fun to hang out with the Eberly's,

and we are so sad they are moving to Wyoming.

We will miss you guys!

By the way, this Tim set up Silas' and Yuri's first date 10 years ago!

neigbors

Milo built a house next to Silas (actually Milo's) tee pee.

Christmas gift from Illinois

Milo received Christmas gifts from Jenn.

Yes, it was late Christmas gifts :)

Milo loved them and it was nice to feel like to have a Christmas again in May.
