Grandparents Are Here, Ashes, and the Lunar New Year!



I'm finally getting around to posting photos taken while my parents have been here visiting.  Iver is at a fun (while exhausting) age, and my parents have been great to have as extra hands and to entertain him, particularly with reading tons of books.  Sadly, they have both fallen ill while they've been here (this has been a sick, sick household lately!), so we haven't done much out and about, but we did go to our favorite restaurant, Larrupin, for dinner on Saturday, when Iver's daycare had Saturday babysitting for 'Parents' Night Out.' We've enjoyed lots of "down time" at home chasing Iver around the living room and keeping him out of trouble


Grandma's lap is a favorite place to be
















 Interested in Grandpa's beard

Doing headstands on the stairs... 


... and trying to go down by himself... (no fear in this kid)


Here's breakfast on the floor (we are having more eating successes just this week. I'm psyched about this!)


Shoe-stealing.... a favorite activity





Ash Wednesday...

(looking very dapper)


... and opening Red Envelopes for Tết, Lunar New Year.  Thanks, Aunties!

And, although she is not here physically, I must wish a happy birthday to Bà nội ,another very special Grandparent who we celebrate today!
