After 39 weeks, it was finally time to see whose been in my belly all this time.  With Malcolm coming so early everyone was worried that this baby would be early too.  So I had to take it super easy, work from home and basically keep that baby inside.  In the end, this baby wasContinue reading “Miral Ava ♡”

This year we had some major changes.  Adam switched out of Amerikids Pre-School that he’s been going to for 3 years and started kindergarten at ISM (International School Manila). When we first moved to Manila I never thought we would still be here for Adam to start at ISM, but here we are and we’reContinue reading “First Days”

14 weeks of a growing belly!  We can’t wait to see who’s in there!            Bags are packed, crib is ready, baby Ali- we’re ready for you! 

This is an oldie from when the boys were still in school.  And because i’m 36 weeks pregnant it’s making me all weepy that the boys will no longer be in the same school.  Malcolm yesterday at lunch said that he was sad that Adam would no longer be in his school to play withContinue reading “More Farms”

After almost two months it was sadly time for Grandma Gertch to head back home.  We asked the boys what their favorite part of Grandma’s visit.  Malcolm’s answer was playing and Adam’s answer was swimming.  Both excellent answers considering they played and swam their hearts content the last two months with grandma.  Here are theContinue reading “Last Pancake Sunday with Grandma”

My new goal is to take pictures every Sunday, with an actual camera instead of an Iphone.  Here is last Sunday.   Malcolm is obsessed with lifting up my shirt and giving the baby hugs and kisses.  Just in case you were wondering what a 33 week pregnant belly looks like, here you go.  Comparing bellies.Continue reading “Sundays”

It’s amazing to think that in a few short weeks (hopefully 5 more!) we will have a third little Ali! We’re all starting to get pretty excited!  Adam keeps talking about how he’s going to feed the baby bottles and Malcolm keeps talking about how he’s going to play with the baby.  Randy and IContinue reading “My three babies”

This year we were lucky enough to celebrate Grandma Gertch’s birthday together in Manila!  The boys made Grandma fun signs and we decorated with balloons and streamers!  The highlight of the party..a yummy campfire cake!  It was great to celebrate Grandma who loves us all so much and does so much for all of us!Continue reading “Celebrating 66”

We have some exciting news in the Ali home. And no, it’s not that I managed to bribe my kids with a lollipop to take cute photos, although these are pretty cute. The big news is- we have a new baby Ali arriving this summer! The boys are super excited! Adam is convinced it’s aContinue reading “Baby Makes Three”

Guess who came to visit us! Grandma Gertch!! And boy are we all happy about it.  Malcolm walks around saying I love my family and insists on sitting next to Grandma at dinner. Adam runs right in her room in the morning to talk about the day. In between the swimming, lego building, walks andContinue reading “Grandma Love ❤”
