Girls’ Day Out

Here’s a thought: In the middle of our busy schedule, we always find time for things that interest us or make us happy. So here’s mine…

I’ve been wanting to share how I spend my weekends with the kiddos at the expense of my work and school (and a full bath!). We always go out–to the mall or to some nearby park (Nuvali is a favorite). And when we’re within the confines of our humble home, I take care of them–from helping them take a shower to cooking and putting them to bed.

This weekend is a bit special. Although technically not a weekend, the finals week has been giving me some days off. The final exams for one of my electives was scheduled in advanced while the other required a final paper–which meant that I didn’t have to take them as scheduled.

So enough of the backgrounder. The kids love to go out and they’d appreciate anything not home. So here’s a sneak peak to two of our days out.

FIRST is one of our usual weekends–malling.

What came out of our short visit to the mall.

Next up was our FRIDAY swimming.

Here’s Gabby whom we fondly call with a host of other names like By-kae-kae, Abbykae, Tintin, Baten, Omwoi, Gubai, and Bambam–depends on who’s calling her.

Gabrielle having so much fun!

In other news, I’m not in any of these pics. That’s what happens when you’re the photographer.

More photos!

I have so many stories to share and these pics only tell a few of them. I need to put baby to sleep now so those stories are reserved for next time. But before I end this post, let me leave you with a swagger…

Smiling gangnam style!
