La Pot? Ohhhh...La Maz
Hello Friends!
Wanted to share a quick laugh with you (and possibly a scary thought about our future generations)...
Aaron and I have started our 6-wk baby class (every Tuesday night from 7pm to 9:30pm) along with 14 other couples and one couple has already provided us endless entertainment when our eyes are not otherwise being seared by graphic videos (I mean, the "miracle of birth").
Stoner Dude and his Baby Mama week one:
"I'm just really tired. I really need a lot of sleep." -- to explain away his falling asleep, snoring, in the middle of a discussion with all of the lights on -- girlfriend slaps him awake
Stoner Dude and Baby Mama week two:
Baby Mama: "If my Mom had a C-section, am I more likely to have one?"
Stoner Dude: "Yea. What if my Mom had one?"
Another Dad-to-be asks the teacher: "About how big is the incision for a C-section?"
Stoner Dude interjects: "About 6 inches. My first kid is 12. I was there."
Dad-to-be: "Oh? Did they let you watch? What was it like?"
Stoner Dude: "I don't know. I passed out. Her Mom came in."
Teacher re: going to hospital:
"Contractions will be about 3 to 5 minutes apart before you want to take her to the hospital."
Stoner Dude: "So when do we go to the hospital?"
Oh gaud. lol :)

Christmas Eve in Thailand
Hello All,
Happy Christmas Eve...(almost for you guys)
Our resort built a stage and there is a big show and dinner planned - although we are not going (for the Brits - it's included in their rate - for us, it would be an additional $300!). We would rather go back into town and finish shopping and spend time alone. We inherited 2 British couples as our new BFFs for the last 2 days and have done evrything with them. Jane #1 got so drunk last night - she fell asleep on my shoulder in the car driven by our resort manager - there's a story... ;) Aaron has enjoyed adopting British slang as his new shtick. Everything is "bloody gorgeous" or he has to go do a jimmy riddle (#1).
Yesterday, Aaron and I and one of the Brit husbands hiked 6 miles to the peak and saw fabulous scenery. Funniest part was Aaron jumping a mile high when a snake crossed his path (just glad I was nowhere near it nor the ginormous spider).
Today is our last full day in Thailand -- so going to try and soak it up. Hard to believe the trip is almost over.
Hope you all are well..and getting into the spirit...
Thinking of you all...
Love and Merry Christmas,
Kim & Aaron

Thailand Update
We made it to Krabi and our resort at Amari Vogue. We are quite isolated with only 5 resorts on this stretch of land/beach - and the Ritz Carlton Reserve is one of them (first in the world). Quite spectacular views - this is how we imagined our trip - so it's nice that we have 4 nights here. Tonight we will get the craziness out of the way by busing it into Ao Nang beach (about 40 minutes away - tourist central) so that we can finish up our souvenir shopping. After that, we are going to be lazy and enjoy our resort and the beach. Tomorrow, Aaron and I will take a long tail boat by ourselves to the islands and be the only 2 people enjoying the beaches and lagoons. ;)
They play Christmas music - so we're kind of getting into the feeling. Bit difficult when it's 90 degrees out. ;)
p.s. we don't know how those people did Survivor Thailand - we have about 7 mosquito bites each and are complaining. (Yes, Mom, we have bug spray).
Hope you all are well!
Love you guys,

Update from Koh Samui
Hello All Again!
Aaron and I finally made it to the islands south of Bangkok and just in time! We were losing it in the big city. ;)
We rented a moped, said a quick prayer, and jumped right into the crazy island roads. Our hotel is pretty awesome - a bit isolated - but actually nice since we can ride the moped into crazy Chaweng Beach (5 minutes) - which reminds us of Cabo - peddlers on beach, etc. Our room is amazing. Private lanai with panoramic ocean views. Although it didn't come without major Thai mishaps last night. No hot water. Bathtub wouldn't drain. Air conditioner wouldn't work. Lights flashed like lightning and wouldn't turn off. Jerry - you'll love this - your son was actually tool-in-hand trying to help the maintenance guy fix the bathtub/hot water. I finally had to go to the front desk and they called the manager in from his home. Needless to say, all got fixed by today and Aaron negotiated a dinner for us at the resort and 2 days of free Club Access (i.e. cocktail hour).
Today we rode into Bo Phut - a super cool fishing village to the north of the island. We stopped to take pics with the "big Buddha" (can be seen from plane) before lunching at an Oceanfront seafood restaurant and feasting for less than $12 (pricey for Thai standards) - and just in time - suddenly we were in a torrential downpour for 1.5 hours and could do nothing but sit in a bar (I know!). Since it was raining, Aaron jumped into a salon for an $8.50 pedicure.
Now, Aaron is feasting again with the locals on a little side street where a woman was carrying two pots via a long stick on her shoulder -- the locals wanted us to join them and enjoyed explaining their local faves to Aaron. I am still full but gladly welcomed a chance to get off the moped.
We're off for some relaxation poolside back at our resort and get an action plan for tomorrow. Looks like we will head south tomorrow and see Lamai Beach (a little slower and long, beautiful beaches) - hopefully the weather holds out for us! ;) Aaron just wants to see the "male and female" rocks (picture will speak a thousand words).
We are here for 2 more nights.. so we will try and touch base before we head to Krabi!
Having a blast!
Love u guys!

Update from Thailand
We are in Bangkok Aitport ready to head to Koh Samui! Finally out of the rat race, smog, traffic and smell. Reminded us of Mexico City. On to the island and peace and relaxation!
Food was great. Last hotel was amazing. 5-star was the only way to go!
Saw some amazing temples and a crazy way of life for Thai living on the waterways...
We went hard for 3 days -- circumnavigating the local transit system. All the Thai people do is eat a ton of small meals throughout the day, nap, and occasionally work.
We rode on the back of a tuk-tuk (similar to a jitney in Mexico - but only seats 2 people behind the driver - 3 wheels) - and we held on for dear life -- craziness!!!
Huge malls... could spend a week in one and never see everything.
Got our suits custom-made -- fit fabulous!!
Running off to next flight -- will try and find another internet stop at next locale.
LOVE TO ALL!!
