3 Musketeers

Bailey, Adeline and Landon are together again! Landon and his mom, Rebecca, have been visiting this week so on Tuesday we got all three kids together. They are so much fun to watch as they all walk around and then wanting the toy the other is playing with! Bailey gets so excited when they are here. We always try to get a picture with the three of them which is not easy.

not sure why Bailey is covering her ears...I'm surprised the Landon and Adeline didn't cover theirs because Bailey is always yelling!

Mmmm...choclate covered cherries!

The other day Bailey was sitting in the floor very quite with her back to me. I didn't think much about for a few minutes but then thought she has something because she is way too quite. And sure enough she had gotten a chocolate covered cherry and had started eating it with the wrapping still on it. Luckily the wrapper was still in her mouth but she had eaten some chocolate and the syrup in the cherry was all down her shirt, pants, on the rug and on the floor! It was so funny! She was enjoying it. I guess from now on I'll have to share my chocolate covered cherries with her!

Bailey was carrying her sippy cup around in her mouth this afternoon, I think she was hinting that she wanted some more after she had already drank this whole thing full of ayran!

Ayran and Gozleme

On Monday we went to see the progress on our new apartment. So we decided to walk around the neighborhood and then decided to have lunch there. We ate at this little place that only had 3 things on the menu - gozleme, manti and baklava. So we had gozleme. But I forgot Bailey's sippy cup (not a big deal because she rarely uses it) anyway I didn't have anything for her to drink. So I thought let's let her try ayran. For those of you who don't know what that it is - it is a salty yogurt drink. Some say it tastes kind of like buttermilk. And sure enough she loved it! After she had quite a few sips we set it on the table and she did not like that! She wanted more! So she is getting more Turkish everyday! But thank goodness she does love peanut butter and jelly! So I guess for lunch it will be PBJ and ayran! Gross! But she loves it!

These ladies, who did not want their picture made, were making manti. Manti is kind of like a pasta with a little meat on the inside. They serve yogurt over the top of it after it's been boiled.

Coloring Easter Eggs

This afternoon Bailey and her good friend Adeline colored Easter Eggs. Well ok actually Andrea and I ended up coloring them but we did get a few pictures of introducing them idea to them. They were funny. Bailey liked holding the egg and then throwing it on the ground! so one less egg for Bailey.

Snow Mountain

This week we went with a few friends to Kartepe (Snow Mountain). It was nice to get out of the city. There was snow on the mountain which was the only snow we've seen all winter! I wanted to let Bailey walk in it but on the second day it rained and so a lot of the snow was gone. She did get to touch it but not play in it. Oh well another year. Here are a few things we did this week.

At the pool you had to wear these plastic things over your shoes

She reached straight down and touched the snow but wasn't sure about it being cold. She just couldn't quite figure it out
