Video: Johann’s 3rd Birthday

A montage of photos and video clips from January 22.

Katy Perry’s performance in Manila for her California Dreams concert tour was also on that day. She sent us her regrets, as she was unable to join our celebration.

Katy kissed Ivan Dorschner on-stage, but she says she was thinking of Johann the whole time.

Got Sparklers?

It was Johann’s 3rd Birthday yesterday. We had a little celebration with cake (of course!), dinner out, and a trip to an amusement arcade.

Before washing up for the kids’ bedtime last night, we finished off the fireworks that I set aside from New Year’s Eve.

Here’s an animated photo gif I made:

I think animated GIFs are called, “cinemagraphs” these days.

Anton really likes his party hat. We lit a fountain, a couple of ground spinners, and a pack of sparklers.

That’s Xena walking in and out of the shots. Her long coat had to be shaved off to manage the tick infestation. Did you know that those little bloodsuckers can go for up to 3 YEARS without food? Evil ticks are evil.

I’ll post moar photos and some video laterz. Maybe.

Season’s Greetings!

“Daddy, look! Johann’s nail is broken!”

Yes, we speak in the third-person.

Then The Carousel Started

“Then the carousel started, and I watched her go ’round and ’round… All the kids tried to grab for the gold ring, and so was old Phoebe, and I was sort of afraid she’d fall off the goddam horse, but I didn’t say or do anything. The thing with kids is, if they want to grab for the gold ring, you have to let them do it, and not say anything. If they fall off, they fall off, but it is bad to say anything to them.”

I can so relate to this little guy. I’ve been sweating the whole day.

Aircon, I miss you. See you this weekend! <3

A Link Between Angels and Men

A babe in the house is a well-spring of pleasure,
a messenger of peace and love,
a resting-place for innocence on earth,
a link between angels and men.

“Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is…”

Still loose for allowance for growth (because it is only March).
