You know you're back in Singapore when...

You walk outside and you're sweating within minutes! It is definitely a "cooler" time of year here, but man you get used to less humidity quite quickly. Phuket was more like Singapore than Bali was, but not still not quite as humid.

Other than being tired, the boys are healthier than they were a few days ago. We had Christmas in Singapore this morning when the boys woke up. They were SO excited. We turned on Christmas music and watched as they opened their gifts. Their new toys kept them entertained for a few hours, then it was back to the pool. I must be getting used to this place because as we flew home last night, I found myself happy to be back here. I cried on the way back from Bali when coming home didn't mean to Portland, but this time was different. That's a good thing.

We certainly missed all of our family gatherings on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We are used to seeing grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins...everyone. It was quite different, but because we were on vacation, we had our own sort of Christmas fun. It helped a lot that we were with friends.

Looking forward to catching up on pictures, exploring more of Singapore, Skyping with friends and family whenever we want, playing in the pool, watching movies, taking naps, you name it - for the next 9 days of vacation! And thanks to Michelle, doing laundry, cooking and cleaning is NOT on my list to do. (Sorry, had to mention it).

I will upload more pictures from our vacation this weekend. In the meantime, we'll keep sweating!

Christmas in Singapore!


Nanny & Grandpa - These are super cool, but might be the LOUDEST gift ever. We have ordered a drum set to be delivered to your house for the summer.
LEGOS! But only ones they can put together themselves...no help needed. That's my kind of Lego gift. 

Since traveling, Luke has loved everything airport related
Their big gift from mom & dad was SCOOTERS! We've circled our complex a few times today :)
