The girls and I had fun with Eric's B-day this year, Lili and I bought him Superman party supplies and Fei set the table. We put his favorite candy, salt water taffy all over the table. Very festive. His first themed party. Fun. In the end he loaded up a regular plate, we all teased him about not using his Superman plate. He offered to switch his food but I scooped the plate and put it aside for him. He'll get to use it another day and the fun will continue. We had Scott up for dinner and Penny and the girls came. Actually the girls were already over, they just stayed for dinner. Jia woke up yesterday just shaking with excitement, she wanted Daddy to have his presents right away. He ended up opening them first thing because we didn't think she'd do well waiting all day to give him the presents some of them she wrapped herself, of course using a ton of tape.
We've been using some of our quiet time to use up some of the science kits the girls have accumulated. The spheres and the snow were both big hits. Next is the Menthos in Pepsi :)
Scott has been building our new shed, it's kitty corner to the fence and garage, planning to move bikes, ride on toys and cars, quad, motor bike, garbage cans, tools and odds and ends out there. Hoping to stream line the garage to just cars.
The really fun news of today. Jia's foster sister Sage (Du Xiao Fang) who lives with her American parents in Shanghai is coming to our house for a visit today!! I'm so excited to meet them. We've met on-line of course.
