Eating fruits and veggies

How do you like to eat your melon and watermelon? Cut up in chunks (I think of you, Mandy, every time I cut my melon:)? Or cut up in moon shape pieces? Mark LOVES honeydew, but we call it "DINYA" in our house, so I am not even sure my kids know what they are eating in English.


When we go to our "apple lady" store off base, we always get these gigantic carrots. They come in a package of 3 for a 100 yen (a little bit over $1). Kids love to eat it just like that.


I remember my mom always chopping her veggies for soups and me pretending to be a bunny crunching on all those carrots. As a side note, growing up in Ukraine, I had soup every day of my life for my midday meal. Now I am finally learning how to make my own soups.



Happy Mark. A few of you might think that he is always happy....not lately. I think separation anxiety has hit us pretty hard, but only when I am around. He wants to be next to me all the time. Since this is my third baby, all I can think of is, "This is all temporary".


Trying to get a picture of all three of the kiddos.



Oh, look! They are eating again:) At least it's grapes.

The end of my picture marathon.
