Walking all Over

Here's the video we promised! We were able to catch Micah walking in different phases from starting off (wobbly) till now where he is quick on his feet. Enjoy and let Micah know how proud you are of him!

Yes, we know its been over 2 wks since our last post...

Yes, we realize it has been over 2 weeks since we've updated and for that, we apologize to all you wonderful fans of our blog page. Life has been really busy with school (2nd semester of Arabic only gets harder and more complicated) and last week both Micah and Liz had pink eye (No Fun at All!). In addition, all 4 of us have been fighting a yucky cold that we can't seem to shake. So needless to say, we have had our hands full. But nevertheless, we have kept up with our picture taking of the kids and had to share them with you...
Here Micah is wearing his Daddy's hat and he's seriously a "Mini-Me" of Randall a.k.a.
Randall Jr.

Even in the profile picture, they look a like!

Down below is Morgan just being really SILLY for the camera and of course we had to share them with you!

We curled her hair by using toilet paper last night (thanks to Grammy and Aunt Natalie who used to do this back in the day) and this was actually Randall's idea to try on Morgan (way to go Daddy!)

Silly Girl!

Please keep checking as we (Randall) is in the process of making a video of Micah walking and he is everywhere, almost running by now!

More Park Time

Just thought we'd share some pics of the kids at a local park in our city. Its fun to see them play together and entertain each other now!

Here, Morgan is sporting her shades (princess of course!)

After visiting Micah's friend Lucy at Christmas and watching videos of her going down the slide, we thought we'd let Micah brave it out too and he loved it! (He liked going down on his stomach better)

Morgan was in an extra happy mood this day and was smiling every time we pulled the camera out. (she even stopped on the stairs just to pose for the camera!)

Micah, hanging like his Daddy!

It seems our kids can never get enough of the park time. We think its reminds Morgan of home and want her to continue to have things here that she does that she would also do back in the states.

Like Father, Like Son! Its amazing how Micah looks like Randall more and more everyday!

Morgan's First Trip to the Theaters!

Today we took Morgan to see her first movie in the theaters and thought she was big enough to sit through it and enjoy it too. We saw Alvin & The Chipmunks 2 because we have the first one and Morgan watches it over and over and loves it! So when we arrived to the theater, we had to buy M & M's for her because she thought she "needed candy".

Then we looked down at our tickets and saw that we had "assigned seats" and just had to laugh! So we followed the rules and sat in our assigned seats even though it was a 12 Noon showing and besides the 3 of us, there were only about 15 other people there.
The first thing Morgan said was "That is a Huge T.V.!" (we thought that was cute!) and once the movie started, she was hooked! Funny thing, about 10 minutes into the movie, we heard a cell phone ringing and it kept ringing and ringing and no one was answering it. Then we saw a lady walking down the aisle with the ringing phone, trying to find her way out. The less then 2 minutes later, another lady walked out on her cell phone too.

However, these 2 ladies never returned to the movie, which left about 7 or 8 kids (ages 4-10) unsupervised, running up and down the aisle stairs and talking, sometimes screaming who knows what. We let this go on for about 5 minutes and then Randall finally got up and told them to be quiet (in Arabic!, Way to Go Randall!).

This only lasted for about 5 minutes until the kids started up again. So this time Randall got up to get one of the theater workers and he kept an eye on the kids for the rest of the movie. Overall, we had a great time and it was really cool watching Morgan during the movie as she was dancing and singing along with the Chipmunks and Chipettes!

Just thought we'd share this fun little experience we had today! (Come visit us and we will gladly take you to the movies too!)
