How we spend our days...

I am sure you are wondering how we are spending our days here in Bangkok (and even if you aren't really wondering...I am going to tell you anyway, ha ha!) We are trying to fill our days with small activities for Sadie's sake and small for my sake. I can't do a whole lot but we try to do at least one thing in the morning or afternoon. Poor Sadie hates being cooped up inside so we try to take her out and about. We have been to the mall several times (and boy I wish I had a ton energy because there are places to shop everywhere, it's probably better that I don't have the energy anyway!) But we found this fantastic toy area, they have all kinds of toys! I bought Sadie a Mr. Potato Head (to be from her great grandmother) the other day and then a Leap Frog that can go on the fridge (from her grandparents) thanks to the recommendation of my friend Erica. She said that her kids would play with this Leap Frog thing and it teaches them the ABC's and she is able to cook dinner. What could be better?? :) Now to teach Sadie to keep it on the fridge and not take it off to play with it, there always seems to be something. Anyway...back to the original reason for the post...taking Sadie to the play area. We took her there thinking that it would be great fun, turns out she is too young. So we settled for letting her ride a few rides. To her, it was just as much fun, she knew no different! So, here is a few pictures of her riding some fun rides....




To update you on me and baby Jack...we are still doing pretty good! :) I go tomorrow for my 37 week check up. I have been having a lot of Braxton Hicks contractions this week but they aren't getting harder or worse. Just having a lot of them. I am keeping my eye on them and will talk to the doctor tomorrow. I will keep you guys updated! I am hoping that this little one will keep cooking till January 5th but as I said with Sadie, God already knows his birthday so if he comes early, it is all in His Timing!

This is what we'd do when out for babies too! Glad Thailand has so many kid play places! BTW, some of them have separate sections for kids under 2...you might look for one of those!

You look great!! We have that alphabet thing! Brady LOVES to play with them. We have a plastic canister that we keep them in and he just takes them in and out. Hey- call me tomorrow morning 8ish my time if you have time to talk!
