On our way to the Irish Heritage Festival at the Seattle Center last Sunday, we were fortunate enough to walk past a couple of parked Metro buses. These days, Kian is obsessed with buses, and often gets upset when the buses drive away out of sight. He immediately requests/demands "more buth!" with that adorable toddler lisp. So, it was pretty cool to be able to see them up close for as long as he wished.
Just minutes after the following video was taken, the luck of the "Chirish" (referring to Kian's combo Chinese-Irish Heritage) brought an additional bus to the line of parked buses with a couple of drivers-in-training, who were nice enough to let Kian come aboard and sit in the driver's seat (as long as I didn't take any pictures that might incriminate them)!
At the festival, Kian thoroughly enjoyed pushing around a little blue patio chair, often coming dangerously close to ramming into the backs of some innocent spectators' legs. Ryan and I had to run interference constantly. He giggled heartily while racing the chair around the Center House.
Kian was also fond of this little dog...
When we finally raised him up above knee level, Kian enjoyed the Irish music and dancing that we came for...
On March 17th, we hosted St. Patty's Day dinner, now an annual event.
Our first time was in 2008, when I was pregnant with Kian:
In 2009 we took a family photo with Kian at age 7 months:
And this year, when we took our family photo, we're a family of four....well, almost...
I am 12 weeks pregnant! Baby Chow Liddell #2 is due on October 2, 2010. Cheers!!
