Happy 7th Birthday, David!

David had a little birthday party at our home. He turned 7 which is unbelievable. Thank you to Natasha and Vadim, with your wonderful boy Makar, for coming! Thank you to Marina and Jennifer and Arthur, for making it anyways! David loved all the presents. We all had grand time. Here's some more pictures from that day.

Weekend Barbeque Cookout

This is just us hanging out at the Golden Gate park and dad barbeques some ribs. We stay until almost nighttime and racoons are starting paying attention to us. Reluctantly, we leave.

David's Halloween

Halloween was a blast. David got a basket full of candy and toys. He loves his "treasures" so much he actually sleeps with candy now(he picks out different ones from the basket each night). Here's a slideshow of our Halloween 2007 photos.

David -- my happy child!

Here is David drawing a picture book about some characters that he created and he is making sound effects and voiceovers all by himself.

"How to check the right distance from eyes to a book? Put elbows on the table, and touch temples with tips of your fingers"

What an imaginative, happy child he is! He's come down with an ear infection of late, so we were all up all night, sent poor disoriented Dad to the drugstore at 3 AM,, but I am happy to report that David is a little trooper and doing better and better every day.

"David at the SOL to a sales woman: "This is my mom and my dad. They are the bosses of me" She answers, with a laugh "As if!"

David to become a Cub Scout

" The sweetest sounds to mortals given
are heard in Mother, home, and Heaven "

We had a back to school night yesterday. David seems to have so much confidence and joy in school! Last year he was a little shy and timid. This year, he is to become a Cub Scout. What fun we had at the Scout Meeting! David made paper airplanes; ate hot dogs and then made s'mores by the fire. He learned a song routine with bigger boyscouts and performed for us. He climbed and ran near the lake. What a joyful child he is! (Mommy sighs proudly)

As usual I posted the rest of the photos in our Photoalbum(click here)
