one of our favorite places to eat changed from dishes to these waffle things (above), but recently they sell both :) which is great for our family bc Jo loves the waffles
here is Jo finished with his waffles and having his 3rd serving of rice, chicken and peanuts, carrots and fat (like bacon) and green beans
check out his face here- he has rice stuck all over it! 
our laundry is very interesting, esp. in the winter or like 6 months out of the year because we have to air dry it around the house- it is everywhere and it normally takes a few days to dry because it is so wet and cold- here you can get an idea of laundry everywhere- hanging from the ceiling, the wall, in the middle of the room, on the chair...i follow dad around and try to help out- what really happens is i play with the hangers or rearrange the clothes- here i found some clothes pins to play with so i'm not really all that helpful but i enjoy myself!
this pic is on here bc i just look so plain cute!jo just started "twirling" we think this is so funny and cute- we think it makes him a little dizzy though :)
my fried rice shop friends were impressed with my walking skills
he was happy about the Christmas cookies we gave them
this is me and mama going around to all our friends
The first one is funny because he thinks i'm taking a picture and you can see how he cheeses it up when he thinks the camera is on! Enjoy watching Jo's skills!

this is one of the many people who wanted their picture taken with me in front of the tree
so far my Christmas is going good- i got to eat cookies, get my picture taken, play and hang out with pretty girls
Joy fixed us dinner at her house. She is in the middle between her 2 Aunties. They are from a nearby village, but they live in our city and sell their embroidery and do some tourism work.
