Music Time

A few weeks ago, we purchased a piano - a 2004 Kawai upright that we found via Craig's List.  (And it turns out the seller's wife is a dental hygienist at our dentist's office - small world.)  I've played it the most so far - mostly in the evening when the kids are asleep.  However the kids have had a few turns, only once they've asked permission and have thoroughly washed their hands.  Lauren has been perfecting Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and Cole has poked around on the keys a bit (and successfully managed to drop some drool onto the piano bench on more than one occasion.)

Determination


Stopped off for some dim sum at Golden Buddha last weekend after visiting the Big Bugs exhibit at the Desert Botanical Garden.  The server brought Cole and Lauren a fork, but they were both determined to make the chopsticks work.


And they had my favorite dessert - custard buns.
