argh.....ahhh

This week has been a little (and at times very) frustrating. We have a very slow internet connection that has caused me to feel WAY more isolated than I'd like to feel. There's no quick looking up any thing or sending a quick email. And apparently Singapore is the only country that has problems with its proxy server and uploading pictures to this blog. So I'm disappointed that none of my entries have pictures. Bill is suppose to work on it (in all his free time.) But I've spent a few days this week feeling lonely and frustrated at the lack of playgrounds in our area. The closest one is a 20 minute taxi ride. But today I discovered an indoor children's gym and we go to a class on Monday. It looks super fun and I'm hoping to meet some mamas there. We are living in an area where you see very few babies on the very crowded streets. It's not at all like Silverlake where every fourth person has a kid. Wyatt does cause quite a sensation where ever he goes. Today at dinner a girl asked if it was ok to take a picture with him. People here love to touch him and even kiss him, which freaks his parents out a little. There seems to be 3 standard questions: how old? boy or girl? and name? It's funny to me that someone might think Wyatt is a girl, he seems so boyish to me. He's been eating less dirt though as it's too hot to visit the parks unless we get there early in the morning. Plus there are 4 or 5 different ant varieties that are very prevalent and enough I won't let my son eat ants or let them crawl on him.
