Fun with cousins

We have some hot off the presses photos for you from our Thailand adventure, in random order.

Here is Jeff and Caitlin- he's just over 5 months, and is such a cutie. Very observant and engaged, and easy-going too.


We went to see the elephants this morning- Lucy let one put a hat on her head and take it off, and she and Sam fed the elephants bananas and sugar cane. The big elephants eat the bananas whole, but the baby one peels it first. The elephants do all sorts of tricks (painting, playing soccer, playing harmonicas), but I most enjoyed seeing them get bathed and how they interacted with each other.

Sam giving Lucy a ride on his bike. She fits just right on the back bag-holder.

The two blankey-loving cousins, watching tv in the car (a real help when we're trying to keep them awake before getting home for nap time!).

Caitlin and I, on our horse and buggy ride. I'm so enjoying our time together. We went for Thai massages yesterday, and have had many a motorbike-ride excursion and good talks during naptimes.

Super Sam and Super Lucy.

Don't worry- Sam wasn't just about to bash Lucy on the head, even though it looks like it (he's actually been very sweet with her, giving her lots of hugs and sharing admirably with his cousin).

Lucy and Jeff together on the first night we got here. They're actually just 18 months apart- soon enough Jeff will be ready to join in the playing too!
