Well, it is no coincidence that when I went back to work full time, blogging was the first thing to go. We have had so many people asking (demanding, begging, etc.) for an update. I will post this disclaimer again; I feel strongly that unless you birthed us, you may grow increasingly weary reading the updates from our mundane life. That being said, who are we to not give the people what they want, so here we are. I make no guarantee that the posts will be long, proof read, entertaining, or frequent, but I am back and will do my best. Please feel free to email me at alidaniel22 at gmail dot com or post in the comments if there is something specific about our life in Korea that you would like me to share more about. Your comments and words of affirmation are so encouraging. Anyways, thanks for sticking with us…here we go.

Some things haven’t changed:

Our kids are still awesome.

Being cute.

On the plane home from Christmas.

Yes, that is the stroller seat strapped to our son.

And we still live in Korea.

That building in the background is supposed to be the tallest building in Asia upon completion, or so we’ve been told.

And some things have changed:

Isaac voluntarily ate a tofu burger.

Just out of picture: gun to his head?

Asher is 6.5 months and is sitting up, scooting, has two teeth, and is eating baby food! It won’t be long before he is crawling. (Teeth not pictured because prying your babies mouth up for a picture is a surefire way to tick them off). Also of mention, his hair is growing back. No more bald baby grandpa.

Judah will turn two in the Philippines next month! We, and two other adults, are taking our circus on the road along with 9 high schoolers for a mission trip. If Judah asks, it’s all in honor of his birthday. Take that, Pinterest inspired parties. Each day he looks like less of a baby and more of a little boy.

Scaring the mess out grandad’s fish.

He gave us a good laugh the other day when we had a family outing to one of our favorite local bakeries. As I plowed the way through the crowd with Asher, Isaac followed behind holding Judah’s hand. Isaac was met with some resistance so he turned to see that Judah had stopped to help himself to some Tiramsu. I found a seat and wondered what the hold up had been…until I saw Judah’s face.

Anyways, that’s it for now. We have a weekend full of rest ahead of us as I seem to stay sick lately (could be that Korean doctors usually give about 4 days of medicine, just enough to make you think you are better…), Asher has a double ear infection, and Judah has a sinus infection and fever. We are truly the envy of the block. Have a restful weekend, you wonderful people.
