Field Day

Yesterday the international school had a field day at a large park in the northern part of the city. Lydia and I went along to watch and enjoy the beautiful day. We were blessed with sunshine and the warmest temperatures we have had so far this year. It felt so good! Many other parents came to watch, and Lydia had plenty of little 3 & 4 year old friends to run around with. Here are a few pictures:

Egg toss:

The students got a little carried away with shaving cream at the end. Here's Aaron carefully avoiding getting any cream on himself...

But someone else was determined that it wouldn't last long...

So he did get a bit creamed (sorry no picture of the result), but he didn't look as bad as the girls pictured above!

Tomorrow is graduation, and after that, Aaron is free for the summer! We're looking forward to some relaxing weeks in June before Baby arrives.

Speaking of Baby, I had another doctor appointment today, and everything is still looking good. He did say that he thinks the baby will come before the due date; probably sometime between June 18 and the end of the month. I wouldn't mind- I already often feel pretty uncomfortable! I only hope she waits until after the 20th, because we have a special date to see something at the Marinsky Theater, in celebration of our 10th anniversary! (Now that we have work visas we can get cheaper theater prices- woohoo! MUCH cheaper!) Our anniversary is in July, but we wanted to celebrate before Baby & sleepless nights!
