It was a busy weekend...

We started with lunch at Antipolo with Clarisse, Jose and Tomas at Crescent Moon Cafe. The kids had fun feeding the fish and walking around the water lily pond.

Since we planned a late lunch, we were "smart" enough to make sure the kids had eaten before setting off. This allowed us to more or less concentrate on lunch while the kids watched Thomas the Train with - who else - Tomas! For some reason, the 2 boys wanted to make sure that Tomas was acquainted with their train identities. Tomas was Thomas (for obvious reasons), Hadrien was Henry (because Henry is marked #3 and Hadrien is 3) and Baz was Gordon (marked #5, for the same reason). After getting that part settled - there was less shouting :)


After we got home, Mama and Papa stopped by and had dinner with us. The kids wasted no time in showing off new books, their latest building structures and of course, the house models! They even led the prayer before meals and performed their "Down in the Jungle" and "10 Little Indians" songs :)



Yaya Dora was out for the day today (Sunday) so it was just the 4 of us for the most part. I thought it would be a good idea to make the kids help me set the table and clean up after. Hadrien volunteered to place the spoons and forks on the table. Baz on the other hand picked up all the debris. Both boys got checks in their notebooks for eating independently. They would have gotten 2 checks had they finished their food quicker :(

We bought some towels which were on sale in SM, devoured 2 orders of churros at Dulcinea for merienda then feasted on lechon kawali and pansit for Yaya's birthday dinner. Happy Birthday Yaya Dora!
