Gong Xi Fa Cai!

This year Valentine's Day also fell on Chinese New Year!  This year is the year of the tiger and CNY is a huge thing here in Malaysia, given the number of Chinese descendants living in the country.  So when we went up to KL, it was a complete ghost town...relatively speaking for what KL is usually like...because everyone was travelling to visit families! But they had lots of shows going on to help celebrate and we happened to come upon these Chinese acrobats performing at the mall where we went to have lunch.  They were pretty amazing and the boys were in awe as we watched.  Cooper was clapping like a madman and even giving out a few "woo hoos"!  It was adorable...Cooper, that is!! 
After lunch, we went to one of the boys' favorite places, the playgym!  They had tons of fun and loved that Daddy was there to play with them this time!  And let me tell you, it was quite a sight to see Andrew maneuvering through the small tunnels...he was a tad bit too big to be going through them, but he was a real sport for trying!
I'm not sure if Cooper was actually helping to build here or was trying to tear apart Evan's creations...I'm guessing the latter if I know Coop!
I guess pretend driving requires you to suck in your bottom lip....since both of them were doing it in my "reflection" pictures!

And since we were spending the weekend in KL, we had plenty of time to get in lots of playtime...and boy did we!!  We even made it back over to the KLCC park for some playtime before dinner.  As always, the boys ran wild and had the best time playing on all the equipment there!  And I, as always, was in full swing with my camera!
We've got one that HATES swings...
and another that LOVES them and can't get enough of them! Go figure...
And of course, we had to get one in front of the Twin Towers!
