Hanging out

Today Saige was feeling better so we went out and walked around by the lake. Saige LOVES her Baby Bjorn carrier. She kicks her feet whenever I stop walking and waves to people as they go by.

Today we found Saige a couple of beautiful silk dresses. Saige loves colorful things and Carl spotted a little wooden pull along dragon. lol. Consumer safety would have a field day in Vietnam! The walker we bought would be a safety hazard on SO many levels back home but the thing took all of minutes to snap together. For 11 dollars I'm not complaining!

After walking around the lake we went for lunch at Jaspas. Saige has the bathroom timing of all my other children. The poor kid hadn't had a bowel movement since we got her but the second we sit down to eat wouldn't you know it she blew! After I changed her we sat back down and she actually ate table food! She had NO interest in anything other than formula prior to that. Now she's like a whole new kid. She loves carrots and potatoes. She's a messy eater like Michael and Julie but she eats food that's good for her like Stephen.

The pictures below are of me and Saige at Jaspas and by the lake. The other picture was taken on the way to Tuyen Quang. I swear I'll never see mountains as huge or beautiful as that as long as I live. Vietnam is absolutely beautiful.
