Before and After- LEA 變(髮)

一直捨不得替Lea剪頭髮,總覺得一剪掉以後不一樣了。 康少奶想替Lea剪掉前面的「蔭」很久了,因為Lea的頭髮已經長到要時常把頭髮紮起來,不方便。阿「豆」也辛苦。想不到明明是去生日會,竟然受不了「輿論」壓力,請專業髮型師,西門嫂操刀,替Lea剪了新髮型。 剪了後,Lea 的頭髮的確舒服了,多謝西門嫂! 雖然還是有點不捨得,但是看見Lea真的舒服了,還是應該剪的。


Before - 剪頭髮前


After - 剪頭髮後

Greenbrier State Park - Beach

Darren 和 Lea 第一次去沙灘,是沙灘, 不是海灘。 這個沙灘是在一個淡水湖邊。好處是不需要清洗海水。Darren 起先有一點怕水,但是看到表姐和舅父在水中玩得不亦樂乎,也就加入水中一起玩了。Lea 是第一次下水,開心到不得了,後來上了水換了衣服後,看見哥哥還在水中,還發脾氣呢!

We Moved!!

We have moved to the new house. Now living with about 70 boxes in the house :)

Everything went rather smooth, of course the moving company charged extra hours, that is to be expected. But at least nothing major broke.

Darren still not used to the new house, he still think our old house is home, when were are back there cleaning up, he does not want to leave. HAHA.. and Lea still love the river rock we have on the side of the drive way, Darren love to play with the mist from the garden hose. And Darren missed the duck in our old neighborhood pond.

Well, I think they will totally forget about all that in a week :)

One surprising plus is Lea now sleeping in her own room, and she seems to be doing ok. We finally get our bedroom back :))

Mixed Feeling

In about 5 hrs, the big truck from the moving company will stop by, yes, we are finally moving to the new place. Of course we are excited about moving in to the new house, the bigger house, the bigger yard, the nicer school zone, upscale neighbourhood etc..

But at the same time I am kind of sad to leave our current house. So many happy memories, the day that walk in to the model home to meet Matt - the salesman. The nervousless on putting in the contract for our first brand new home, the choosing of options down to the color of the tiles.. Then we see the house being built, starting from the foundation to the three levels, from the frame only to everything taking shapes. The final walk through was so excited, we are about that have a place of OUROWN, with only our names attached to it. And then we have snoopy play in the back yard the first day we moved in. The painting, the shopping for furniture on budget :) Starting my side photo biz ...etc. And then came Darren, and 21 months later, Lea, and this house will forever be remembered as the house they were born. I will definitely missed the mural I painted in Darren's room. Sorry Lea, have not get to your room yet before we decided to move :) I will remember how both of them learn how to sit, crawl, stand, walk and then run in this house. I will remember the tantrums Darren threw about 5 timez a day during the terrible 2 periods. These all happened right here.. And I will never forget how Lea walk around with a bottle in her mouth ( yes, no hands :)) and the shaking of the bottles/cups that leave a trail of milk :) And who can forget the bubble time they have in the Trex deck, one of their favorite activites. The fond memories of their first birthday party, Second party, the halloween celebration. And the time with the grand parents in the house.

I am sure we will all enjoy the new place, but we will never forget all the fond memories we have in this house.
