Renee is settling in the new place, and she seems to be growing cheeks. My guess is that somehow the new teachers are better at getting her to pay attention to the food. Max is less stubborn, in that if I tell him enough times with threatening tone, he will obey, while Renee will just resort to crying. On the other hand, Renee deals with punishment quietly while Max will always throw a tantrum.
With my little break from the school, I got to spend a bit more time with the kids, which was nice.
Easter egg hunt! This neighborhood activity seems to be the little tradition for us now.
Here they are with the rabbit.
We attended the concert at Renee's school. They did great.
While I was busy with school projects and finals, their mom took them to the six flags.
We attended a birthday party. Renee wanted to climb the rock but was not quite sure how to do it. After she gave up and came down, I offered to take her to the top. Here is the father and the daughter struggling together. I am proud to announce that we did reach to the top.
We went to a sheep shearing event nearby. Here is Max holding the wool. Their interest didn't last long though. Max did enjoy riding the tractor.
We also went to a local shopping plaza where there are a lot of ducks to feed. Here is Max with his smile.
Renee still goes to the dance class every Saturday. She gets to meet her old pal Lily here. We are going to host their birthday together. More pictures to come!
We went to the golden gate park. After one hour of row boat, we took a stroll in the island in the middle of the lake. Renee and Max enjoyed the hiking. It looks that when they are older and when I am done with school, we can resume our favorite hiking and camping activities.
