Happy 2nd Birthday Ian Karl!!!
Yes, it's January 22nd. Our boy is two and my, oh my what fun we had! Ian had many of his friends round to his house to have some fun, cake and most of all presents! Of course no party would be complete without some magic and balloons so we had a clown and his princess entertain Ian and his chums. The magic bunny was a real hit with all the kids (and some adults too!). All in all a great day complete with birthday cake and a sing-song. Ian has just gone to bed, tired and exhausted but very happy. And most of all now, he's two which means Mom and Dad now have to pay for a seat for him on the airplane. Damn!!
"Wat-er a lot of fun!"
One of Ian's most popular words is "Turtle" (pronounced "Tutt-le"!). He loves them and even has an inflatable turtle for his swimming pool time. What better place to take him to see a real turtle than the aquarium. Bangkok has a fabulous aquarium, which is where we see Ian, Mom and Dad all having some fun. The walk-through tunnel under the sharks brought whoops of delight from Ian as he ran down each tunnel, taking freuqent moments to slap the glass every time a 10 footer swam by!!
