Happy Father’s Day!
I would like to wish my sweet husband a great Father’s Day. Micah is such a kind daddy to our little girl and a loving husband to me. When Violet was brand new, Micah knew very little about babies. But he did such a great job and got the hang of it pretty quickly. This parenting thing is still new in some ways to both of us, but he is doing a wonderful job. Love you Hun!
Also, a Happy Father’s Day to both of our Dad’s. We love you!
Little Woman
For those of you who haven’t seen our sweet little one lately, I thought you would enjoy a pic of her. She wandered off into our bedroom and decided to play with some of mommies shoes, so I thought it might be cute to let her try them on.
Growing too fast!
But with these shoes on she will fit it perfectly with the Russian woman here. Most of them wear dressy shoes, it seems like all the time. Now the little girls may have some sort of dressier shoes on, but definitely not heels, that would be interesting!!
It doesn’t seem to faze her that most everyone around her is speaking a different language. We are really excited about her picking it up! Most likely before us. She hasn’t really picked up any new words yet. She still says: Momma, Dadda, Baby, Dog in English. And I think she tries to say “this” but it sounds like “thith”. And the same for “that” ends up being something like “thath”.
She loves pulling all of the band aids out of their package, leaving them all over the floor when she’s done and then wanders off to find something else to pull apart. And lately Micah has been letting her play guitar with him, its really cute. She seems so proud of herself. And one more thing, the light switches here are really low, so she can turn them on and off. Well, most of the switches are outside of the room. So as I’m typing, Violet was switching the light on and off with Micah inside the toilet room. Its so funny, for me anyway, maybe not for Micah, as there are no windows in the toilet room. LOL!!
Well, I hope you got your V fix for the day. Thanks for checking in!
Getting around Moscow
Hi Friends,
Some of you have been wondering, “How do you get around Moscow if you don’t have a car?” Well, there are five modes of transportation that we use on a regular basis.
Good old fashioned walking!
The Metro - cheap, fast and nicer than New York!
Trolley Bus - We take this everyday to language class
Mashrutka - Only 25 rubles, this will take us directly to IKEA
Normal bus - same function as in the USA
There you have it folks, that is how we get around Moscow. Some days we wish we had a car but most days we don’t. We enjoy walking around, great exercise!
Thanks for checking out our blog!
