Lots of Pictures...

On Sunday we took the boys for a long day trip.

It was Uncle Greg's birthday and a good time was had by all. Robert ate a few things he wasn't supposed to (because of his allergies) and Zig didn't each much at all because he was too busy playing. The usual story.

Good Ideas

This weekend Zig spent fun time with his cousin Rob and helped his dad build two big IKEA shelves.

It's been a chilly June

So... we rode through a misty rain all morning and discovered some cool places in the woods.

The cute girl sitting with Ziggy is Asya, his nanny's daughter.

He got a little green car (kopeika) that came with a car magazine - this is his new favorite car.

The note on the fridge says: "Hasmik, I think your hair is beautiful." Hasmik is his nanny, and she does have beautiful black hair. She loved the note.

And the cat got a bath.

Do you like edamame?

Zig likes edamame (at least he likes to play with it).

Fun Outdoors

This is Yulia (Master Gardener/Queen of Fixing Things/Aerospace Engineer) in her new greenhouse.

We spent the day at Yulia's community garden plot weeding and getting underfoot.

What's Ziggy up to these days?

Playing the mandolin at his nanny's house and taking walks with Papa. Summertime is good!
