European Vacation!

It's been a few weeks since our last Blog post, but as many know Ian and Mom have been in Ireland and England enjoying some R&R. Dad joined the pair in late April and a few good days of fun, sun and laughs were had by all. We also spent time in the heart of Ireland at a wonderful lakeside lodge with Barbara's parents. You'll see Ian with Grandad Frank in one of our pictures staring out over the lake. Ian had a blast, and got to feed the ducks on the jetty which he found most amusing. In the UK, Ian got to visit Cambridge but of more fun to him was to water Nanny's plants and climb the garden tree as well as get to see all his first and second cousins for hours of fun in the yard. Ian even got to play on Grandad Bob's drumkit and showed a rather scary ability at his how good his drumming skills are already! It's been a wonderful month for Ian, and he has continued to develop with the fullness of his sentences now much more evident in his day-to-day vocabulary. He knows what he wants and he lets us know in an often firm and demanding way! It's back to Thailand tonight, so until our next post take care (photo's of Ian on the Drumkit to follow in the next post).
