Things missed

Since we've moved, life has been nonstop...with one thing after another. Sometimes I would love to just stop and smell the roses once in a while...and it seems like the late night or early morning is the only time I can make sense of it all.

Arya has been caught in the middle between my work and crazy lifestyle as well as Ali's little time after he comes home from work and his Nana & Papa which are thankfully here to be with us every day.

Arya loves to color. He loves to dance, and be happy. He loves playing and spending time with family. And he loves tv, video games and his toys.

I've been trying to get him outside more. Just every time I do, something happens. Today he fell and skinned both knees and his elbows while chasing me with a water gun. Poor kid was bleeding all over. :(

One of his favorite places is Chucky Cheese. This was one of those rare times when we got to go there with Jamil, Kamran & Tina.

I'm so excited they now have Gluten Free pizza!

He also loves playing with Jamil. Seems like Legos keeps them busy for hours!

And still a big fan of superheros!

I think it gives him a sense of power, and make believe that he can be among them.

I'm very thankful for his time with Papa and Nana. He is learning a lot from them.

And getting very familiar with the Iphone! He takes photos and videos of himself and sends them to us. Amazing at 4 years old. I could never have done that.

Sleeping is still a bit of a challenge. His nose / allergies bug him and us. And there's only so much we can do to relieve him.

We communicate to Ali through our Iphones and sometimes he comes for lunch to see us. This is still a blessing. Some kids and wives may not see their man for days even months.

We are happy he has a fun job and can be a true leader of the pack! :)
