Belt Testing December 2010

Yet another belt testing for Isabelle. 

She has done so many now that she doesn't even get nervous.

Actually she's starting to think testing is pretty cool!

This time she was testing for her orange belt,

and she did really good too!

There were 20 kids in her group this time.

I think its great that she's half the size of the kids behind her.

I don't think she's even aware of that fact.

Here's Isabelle waiting patiently

(I know I didn't think it was possible either),

 while watching another student on his form.

Here's William NOT waiting patiently for testing to be over.

It is so hard to take him to testings. 

 I think that I the mom deserve some kind of

 trophy for wrestling with a

wild beast for over an hour and for

keeping him almost quiet the whole time.

We're Having Some Fun Now

It's official.  I am the most sporadic "photographer" on the planet. 
Therefore it makes sense that my blog should also be sporadic.

 Just realize that there is no rhyme or reason to what I do.  

Playing cars is pretty fun, but sitting in/on buckets, baskets, boxes, bins, bouncy chairs, balls,

or anywhere else that starts with "B" is funner.

He's either praying or ignoring her.

I gotta go. I just realized my mom was trying to get pictures of me while I was holding still.

Budding artists. And Liam, who thinks he's a big kid already.

Whoops, I lost a couple of testing pictures in my camera for a few months.

She actually got her trophy this time too, whoops again.

Here she is with her cousins (from right): Corrine, Sariah, and Jakob.

Hello you fierce thing!  I am terrified!

I also do own more than 1 outfit, but after looking at this blog you may not believe it.

Peace Jee Hoon - we love you!

And nice new braces by the way!

Here we are at one of Isabelle's girl parties.

I really have more pictures than these, but I can't find them. 

Sometimes cameras are hard!

We did these parties almost every Friday night for about the past 6 months.

We would have anywhere from 2 to 10 girls.

At first it was pizza and movie nights, then I realized that when you get that many little girls together eating does not happen.  Talking, giggling, laughing histerically, and nonsense happens a lot though!

After a few weeks of that we switched to princess pajama parties.

Oh what an experienced mom I am becoming, I hope!

PEEK-A-

BOO

There are some advantages to being the size of a doll.
I love it!

Random happens.
