Sorry for the delayed post and I apologize for its briefness in advance. We are back on our feet in Saudi. Aden ended up having a rough time of things until a few nights ago. I tried explaining jet lag to him, but he just blew spit bubbles at me. Someday he'll learn.
Speaking of Aden, he is becoming quite the water baby. We took him swimming last week and he seemed to somewhat enjoy himself. I even dunked him under the water for a split second. He was a bit shocked, but didn't choke or cry. I'd call that a success. He even started kicking in the bathtub last night. That adds a whole new dynamic to cleaning between his toes.
As for Tara and I, we had standardized testing at school this week for grades eight and ten in the mornings. Since the morning classes are multi grade level we canceled them and alternated administering tests and taking the grade seven and nine kids to our compound to play tennis and go swimming. We are also winding down on our fourth masters class with one more to go this year. In our spare time we have started to plan our trip to Scotland at the beginning of this summer. The only thing decided for certain is that our one week won't be enough time and we'll have to go back.
That's all for now.

All that baby fat really makes Aden float well.
Uncle Billy spending some time with Aden while we were back in WI.
Brad and Katie hanging out with Aden. Brad, you totally wrecked my candid shot by the way.
We saw labels like this on all the tobacco products in the Frankfurt airport. Makes our Surgeon General's warning seem pretty insignificant.
