Life remains rather uneventful here in St. Louis. Isabelle continues to do well in her pregnancy, now fully into the third tri-mester. She amazed me on Monday by somehow putting three coats on the walls in the living room that we decided should be orange, with no help from anyone, and with Julia running around. We had just gotten the paint on Sunday, and I figured we'd get to it whenever I could keep Julia occupied while Isabelle painted. Painting is her talent, not mine, by the way. It has been pointed out that this is probably Isabelle's nesting instinct kicking in.Today we stopped by a semi-annual sale at our district's high school, Lindbergh (Go Flyers!), of second hand baby stuff with twins as the theme. Isabelle picked up a whole pile of clothes for our new, bigger Julia for the winter, but we didn't find the ideal travel stroller for two for sale, although we saw one in the parking lot. Second hand sales are not part of the culture in Mauritius. Does anyone know if they are strictly American, or do they occur in Europe, or Asia, or anywhere else? Alisa, are you reading? Florine? How about Australia? We like them.
Here is a photo from our recent visit to Nebraska. This was the first time that Isabelle, Julia and I have been with my mom, dad and sister at once.
