The kids have taken to wrestling like kittens.

And like all kids they like to crawl under everything.

Uh-oh. Collision in the tunnel.

Takumi still loves to be tickled. Cassie isn't at all ticklish, but usually laughs when you tickle her because she thinks she should!

We went out for Chinese food to celebrate Cassie's birthday.

Cassie loves secrets, but doesn't get the part where she is supposed to whisper.

Takumi has to be limited to only toasting each person once during a meal.

As always Cassie can find entertain anywhere.

Takumi loves Chinese dumplings. We came to this restaurant in January for Chinese New Year. Takumi recognized it when we pulled into the parking lot. Inside the restaurant he tried to sit at the same table as last time!

Marin and I made the kids steering wheels out of an old styrofoam cooler and lots and lots of duct tape. Here Takumi is driving his fire engine and tooting the horn.

Cassie loves to lie down and pull a pillow over herself!

Takumi is not averse to it either.

And finally pool weather! The kids love the pool and can entertain themselves for almost two hours while we weed and do yard work. It's great. We also bought an old-fashioned push lawnmower which is nice because we can mow the lawn near the kids safely and we can also hear what the kids are doing.
