Grandma Margy and Grandpa Greg Visit Seoul

Much to Eri and Leo's delight, Grandma Margy and Grandpa Greg recently came for a visit. Highlights for the babies included story time, playing cards, playing superheros, eating bunny-shaped pancakes, spa time, and showing off on the playground, at swim lessons and at ballet class. We all enjoyed taking the grandparents around wonderful Seoul, especially the markets, Seoul Tower, the ancient palace and changing of the guard, to the border with the North, and to our favorite restaurants.

Seeing the sights!

At the the base of the Seoul Tower, it's a tradition to write a message on a padlock and chain it to the fence.

Eri is using her best penmanship to immortalize Grandma and Grandpa's visit.

Grandpa Greg learned the night-time routine fast: bath, play naked, pjs, stall, brush teeth, play clothed, finally get in bed, see how many stories you can talk your reader into.

Thanks for making us dinner!
