christmas time in krakow

joe was away for 3 days again in london this week. it went pretty fast and i didn't even have a babysitter at night! i'm just getting better and better at this mom thing :P anyhow, to give me a break, joe took them out today for an extended daddy time. they went out to the city and had an eating fest.


some school children in traditional costume and singing


kids with their lollipops (snack #1)

ethan at a chocolate cafe (snack #2) - that chocolate drink is not your typical hot cocoa, it's actually melted chocolate. joe couldn't bear to drink it, so he took the kid's ice cream and whip cream and ate the chocolate with a spoon.


pretty gross, i know but they did have a whole roasted pig in middle of the square.

kid's snack #3, snack #4, snack #5 is not pictured, roasted honey cashews, kielbasa and bagel (kids told joe that they wanted to feed the pigeons but they ended up eating it all. . . . .) this is all on top of regular lunch they had. unbelievable. this is what happens when the kids spend lengthy time with daddy. . . . they love it.

video of the market square - all the stalls are there for christmas, selling all kinds of goodies!

i LOVE that picture of ethan, and i love how mak is jumping around in the video. the only part that makes me nervous is when joe is spanning the square...keep an eye on them kids, joe!

anyway, i loved going out with my dad, too, except he and i usually fought over our snacks. i think my mom called us kid #1 and #2...

uh, hello! those lollipops are humangous!! and the choco milk made from real choco - can we say caffeine, fat and sugar! men are not to be trusted with the children... i'm sure joe did the best he can:)
