Bag Game

Okay, so I usually just post about my kids and Hong Kong...but I was recently tagged by my friend Barbie to play the Bag Game.  So...here it is...my diaper/purse/carry all bag...

Here is my bag...purchased at an open market in Hong Kong for $25 HKD (about $3 US!)

And here are the contents of my bag in all their glory! :)

Starting at the top left, there are several items of Bobbi Brown make-up (blush, concealer, powder, lipstick), Bert's Bees chapstick (can't live without this!),  my cell phone, two Cars (Doc Hudson and Dinaco Blue Lightning McQueen...characters from the movie Cars), an EpiPen Jr. in case of peanut exposure (for Will), a little plastic container containing 2 spoons and 2 forks (needed for the boys in HK restaurants when they only have chopsticks!), a package of Huggies wipes, 2 diapers for D-pax, 2 pull-ups for Will, a little package of tissues (some public toilets in HK do NOT supply toilet paper or supply it only by the entrance!), my three compact nylon bags in carriers (used for shopping instead of getting a plastic bag from the store), a little tupperware container full of multigrain cheerios, a box of raisins (my boys need snacks available at ALL times!) and two small plastic bags (in case of pee-pee emergencies for Will when we can't find a public toilet in time - this has come in quite handy one more than one occasion).  I warned you...it is an ALL purpose bag!  When you travel on public transportation (train, ferry, bus, taxi) you need to carry a LOT of stuff!  No emergency stash "in the car"...it must be in the bag!  LOL...

So now I am supposed to tag other blogging ladies to participate.  Most of my friends are working mamma's so I won't be offended if you don't have time! ;)  Have fun and show us your bags!

A Delayed Update...

Okay, okay...so I am never going to keep up with this blog as much as I intend! :)

Things here in Hong Kong have been good but busy.  David is working a tremendous amount.  The kids have been good, although both had a bout with a stomach flu last week.  My mom came to visit us in Hong Kong for 3 full weeks, which was great!  We had such a good time showing her around and the boys loved having here here.  My Dad and Barb will arrive in just over a week for a 4 week stay and we are really looking forward to their visit.

Both kids are doing well with potty training!  They pee in the potty regularly, but that's about it.  It is good progress from where we were though! :)

Oh...we also cut Will's hair!  It was not quite intentional to cut it so short, but I am not sure that the guy who did it knew how to cut curly hair.  At first I was devastated, but after a day or so, it really grew on me.  He looks like a boy now! :) LOL

Here are some pictures of the boys from today:

Hope you all are doing well!  We do miss seeing all our family and friends!
