		<description><![CDATA[We have a crocodile farm in Phuket that we used to visit before we all got so crazy busy. As a result, we have photos of crocodiles that we often look at with the kids.
For reasons that continue to elude me, Benjamin pronounces &#8220;crocodile&#8221; as &#8220;crocodile-doh&#8221;. 
Just want to record it so I remember it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Benjamin loves construction backhoes and excavators. Wherever we drive, he helpfully points them out on the street. And he has several toy trucks, the most treasured of which are the backhoes that hover over us on the shelf at the head of our bed.
He also seems to love bowling. Annie&#8217;s cousin Nam often takes him [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since I quick smoking, I have practically no use for lighters any more. 
So, today as evening settles in and the mosquitoes begin to congregate, I start to set up some mosquito coils. But I&#8217;m stopped dead because I can&#8217;t find a single lighter in the whole house. I ask Annie if we have any, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to countless hours of private tutoring by Dora the Explorer, Becca can now count to ten in Spanish. She also knows &#8220;gracias&#8221;, &#8220;de nada&#8221;, &#8220;estrella&#8221;, and a few others. 
On a similar topic, Benjamin (2y9m) astounded me yesterday by counting to ten in English.
Way to go, children!

These are just cute little episodes or observations, usually about the kids, that will almost certainly mean nothing to anyone else, but that I want to remember and preserve. Hopefully my record here will be enough for me to look back and fondly [...]]]></description>

Benjamin (2y7m) comes to me and asks me to get him something on the table that he can&#8217;t reach. I look to see that he is asking me for toilet paper. After handing over a few sheets, my curiosity piqued, I [...]]]></description>

Translation: &#8220;Sleeping. Leave me alone.&#8221;
Just love that kid.

		<description><![CDATA[We are in that toilet training phase with Benjamin and he&#8217;s doing great. He announces his intention (usually), goes into the bathroom (usually), and does his business. Of course, we have a little potty for him. His aim is horrendous, but slowly improving.
Lately, he has been opting for the full-size grown-up toilet. In general, I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Benjamin has now begun to use two expressions, one Thai and one English, to express that he wants to do something for himself.
In Thai, to &#8220;do it myself&#8221; is ทําตัวเอง (tam dtua eng). In keeping with the apprently-now-standard Weinraub early-development pattern of using only the last syllable of anything he wants to express, Benjamin pronounces [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Man, my cup of parental pride just runneth over. 
Last night, after returning from swimming, we put Benjamin in a long shirt, almost a night-shirt, and we had not yet bothered to put pants on him. No biggie, he&#8217;s mostly got the toilet training down, typically announcing his intention to pee and then running off [...]]]></description>
