Dental records

We have decided if we ever need a set of Rachael's dental records we will probably just be able to check Robby's arm. Rachael has decided to take her jealousy out through biting and pinching Robby, often for no clear reason. He just takes the abuse and cries...he has yet to learn to fight back. Some day he is going to haul off and hit Rachael and boy will she be surprised.

Most of the time Rae is quite happy with Robby and they are learning to play together well. We are teaching the appropriate way to wrestle on the bed. They will tumble over each other and laugh and giggle. Yesterday we found a small playground and they enjoyed running around the play gym together.

One interesting cultural note about the playground. We were sitting there when a small child, about 3 years old, walked up in a dress. The mother walked up, pulled up the dress and proceeded to wipe his rear end. The child then climbed up on the play gym and proceeded down the slide. Low and behold it was a little boy in a dress with no underwear on! In a country of split pants this caused no stir among the locals. I was already video tapping my kids playing so I have the whole incident on tape. Just one of the many different experiences we have had in China.
