Lotte World



mya hoarding her balls. they had this great ball area complete with launchers, air blowers, etc. it was very similar to the children's museum in boston, but BETTER!


claire next to a cute little guy. it really was such a cute place. perfect for all ages.

mya checking out the huge keyboard. they even had drums and a guitar that worked. so sweet. this kiddo is drawn to music. she dances all the time.


claire and mya catching a ride on the rotating flowers. they actually had little rides that constant moved. you just hop on and off. so awesome. the best part is that everything in the area is made of that soft plasticy stuff, so it is completely safe.

claire and daddy catching a ride up the wall and around in their sweet ride.

claire and mya riding their pumpkin stagecoach.

daddy jammin on keyboard with claire on the guitar.


here is a ball launcher. you fill up the table and push a button--the balls fly out. so fun and soft.

here is the Jungle Book area. Every little area related to a children's story. Loved this place.
We took the kiddos to Seoul on Friday evening for a couple of days of R&R. Not really, but a break from the norm. Time away is always nice. We decided to go to Lotte World, which is similar to The Mall of America, but on a much larger scale. The best part of the deal was that it only cost about $10 per person. It was AWESOME!! We will definitely be going back there. I was a bit concerned that being our kiddos are so small in both age and stature that they would be very limited in what they could ride. That was not the case at all. They went on anything and everything their little hearts desired. Thankfully, they both seem to take after me in the thrill/adventure seeking realm as neither of them were too concerned with the heights or scaryness. Chris, on the other hand, wasn't so taken. He did not want to go anywhere near the air balloons. The issue was that by the time we made our way over there, the line was dreadfully long. Another day. The key to our incredible day was that we arrived almost as it opened, so we were able to go on many rides without waiting. However, by the time lunch rolled around, even the merry go round had a long wait. It was a really great day. We wandered through the mall a bit afterwards, but truthfully, we were all so tired, that naps were calling.

I misread it and thought it was Latte World. Sigh, I was slightly disappointed. $10 a head is awesome! And it looks everyone had fun. :)

2 weeks...

As I write this, my house is being cleaned and not by me. This is my favorite day of the week. There is nothing like going home to a clean house and smelling the bleach to know it is germ free as well. This is my second good day in a row! I took the day off yesterday. Claire didn't have school due to Fasching (German equivalent of Halloween--minus the door to door trick or treating), so I gave Mya the option of hanging out with us as well. She took some convincing, but later said she had a great day. I must admit that I was focused on giving my back a much needed break, so my morning consisted of napping and laying on the couch. Not my best parenting in action, but it did wonders for the rest of the day. We met Chris for lunch, then returned home to enjoy the sunshine before the girls' swimming lessons. It was in the 50's yesterday, absolutely gorgeous! It really is hard to believe that we made it through the entire winter with no snow. I think it snowed possibly 2 days, b

A post

You wanted it, you asked for it, so here it is. A post. Hopefully this post will satisfy all your desires. I am not writing about the apple of my eye, Claire, but of the other apple of my eye--reality tv. I love it! Right now I am getting my fill of Big Brother. I have even lured Chris into my dark place. He mostly watched last season because Dick was such a jerk, but Chris is hooked. He's a dedicated viewer once again this season. Sadly, he was a fan of Matty who was kicked off a few weeks ago. I don't think I have a favorite. I find them all to be so obnoxious, yet I watch. Go figure. I obviously need some more excitement in my life. Girls who wear butt showing shorts, screaming matches, verbal abuse, crazy eyes, back stabbing, boys running around in their colored tighty whiteys (if tighty whiteys are colored, are they still called tighty whiteys?)---all in one episode! It is a gold mine. My second can't miss show is Housewives of Orange County or New York City. I really

0.0

Yes, indeeedy do. 0.0 is exactly the amount of weight I lost this week. Irritating! Here's the breakdown: number of times I cheated on my diet--ZERO! number of times I worked out--FIVE!! (running, no less). Now that is a mean, mean slap in the face. After I picked myself off the floor and resisted the urge to throw the scale through my window, I've come to realize that it is time to call in the big guns. There will be no messing around. Through a very valuable (HA!--sense the sarcasm) inservice this year, I've learned that I am "Green," meaning logical, research based, problem solver, mathmatical thinker. I am applying the same thought and strategy to my 'get fit' adventure. There will be no relying on the treadmill to tell me how much I've burned. That thing lies, LIES, LIES!! Take for example, the fact that each time I worked out, I burned at least 300 calories--most often 350, my pulse was around 87 (which is pretty much a near death resting
