Tonight I picked up Chinese food on the way home from work. We've been reading Dim Sum for Everyone by Grace Lin, a book suggested to us by our friend Tae. Pearl and Carrie decided to give the chopsticks a try. They ate and laughed and laughed some more. It was a fun meal.
This weekend Marcia worked both Saturday and Sunday. Pearl, Carrie, and Baba did many outdoor activities. We played in parks, went to a farmer's market, took walks, and played in the sprinkler in the backyard. It's cool that the girls can play
together more now. They
really crack each other
up. Of course they also already make each
other furious, but much of the time they seem to be allies.
My son loves the Dim Sum book, too (as well as several of Lin's others). Re: chopsticks, we picked up a set of children's chopsticks like this:

at a local toy shop, and he finds them much easier than separate sticks--besides having cool animals on them. (Didn't get them from the site linked, which I include just for reference.)
