Merry Christmas!

Sorry to keep you guys waiting for new updates. Broken laptop and getting used to a family of four have put a halt to new posts. We'll update eventually. In the mean time, merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Holding Hands with Dei Dei

Here I am wearing my big sister shirt with Dei Dei.

Hugs for Dei Dei

I like to hold hands with Dei Dei a lot and say we're going to preschool.

I like how he holds my hand back.

Dei Dei And Great Grandma Fong

Dei Dei and Great Grandma Fong. In a month, we'll be celebrating her 90th birthday.

I was too distracted by the cool finger puppets Great Grandma Fong gave me.

Dei Dei is pretty strong. At 3 days old, he can hold his head up high. Hmm, his strength could be put to good use later.

Meeting Dei Dei

My first encounter with Dei Dei was brief. I guess I wasn't ready.

I got to hold Dei Dei, but he was a little fussy because he just had a shot.

I stayed at Pau Pau and Gung Gung's house while Mommy and Daddy and Dei Dei were at the hospital.

Sai Kaufu flew up to see Dei Dei.

Auntie J, Uncle A and Cashew and Mei Mei came to see him too




Nice cross over hold, Uncle A!








Pastor Solomon and Julie. The girls were at school.

My New Baby Brother

I wasn't allowed to be in the room when my little brother was born, but I did get to see him pretty soon after.

My Last Few Days...

As a Single Child!

On my last weekend as an only child...

Mommy took me to one of my favorite places, the dog park.

I also visited the playground

Do I really understand how my life will change?

I'm gonna be a big sister so I went to the big kids playground and climbed up this ladder.

Mommy was relieved I made it up safely because she could not climb up with me.

I went down the big kid's slide too.

Back at home on my official last day (Oct 4th),

Mommy went over the baby brother story again. Wow, Mommy has a baby in her tummy!

I don't really understand what it'll be like as a big sis, but I'm pretty excited to meet my little brother.

I can show him how to use the Ipad, but I think he'll need to get his own first.

I don't seriously think it'll be that bad with a new brother.

At least I'll still be be Daddy's Princess

Bambi on the Ipad

If you've noticed in a lot of my pictures, I have Thumper and Bambi with me. They're my favorites. (If they're not there, it's usually because Mommy and Daddy say they don't want Bambi and Thumper to get dirty.) I got so hooked on watching Bambi on my Ipad that I can recite some of the lines from it by heart or talk about some of the actions in the movie. One thing I say over and over, (much to Mommy's dismay) is, "Bambi lost his mother." And sometimes I re-enact the part where Bambi calls "Mother! Mother! Mother!"
I even got into watching Bambi 2, which leaves off from when Bambi's loses his mommy and his daddy takes over raising him and tries to find a new mother for him. There's a new character in this movie named "Ronno" who is Bambi's arch nemesis. He is a mean fawn and makes fun of Bambi and tries to compete for Fallene's attention. I like to talk about "bad boy" Ronno a lot and call him the "Prince of the Forest" (which is really Bambi's title). Mommy is a bit worried about this "bad boy"fascination part.

Doin' the Puyallup!

Great Grandma wanted to go to the Puyallup Fair, so Mommy and I tagged along with her and Grandma and Grandpa.

I got to see a whole barn full of different colored cows.

Here I am about to milk one.

Unfortunately, only water comes out of this one.

I saw some baby chicks!

And a big turkey!

Here I am posing with Great Grandma, Grandma, and Grandpa.

I got to see the draft horses return to their barns after their show.

I went into the kid's barn to pet some goats,

a bunny,

and some little chicks.

I saw some pigs playing with each other too.

We walked outside for a bit and I saw all the rides that I'm too short for. I really liked the ferris wheel.

We went into the exhibition hall to check some stuff out.

I saw a lot of humongous fruits and vegetables.

Like these pumpkins.

At the end of the day, I was pretty tired. I managed to snatch a free banana crown on the way out.

I had fun seeing all the animals with everyone. Thanks, Grandma and Grandpa for taking us!

Oregon Coast Trip

The weekend after our Olympic Game Farm Trip, we went to the Oregon Coast to Gleneden Beach with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jason, and Auntie Amy.

On the way there, we stopped over in Seaside. I rode a bunny (of course!) on the carousel.

And Daddy couldn't resist the arcade, so I played some myself. I usually like the ones that involved animals, like this one with with racehorses.

I also did a little bit of DDR. Time to whip out the DDR pads at Pau Pau and Gung Gung's house!

And I watched Daddy play a few games.

We finally arrived in Gleneden and the next morning we had a gorgeous view on a beautiful day.

We went down to the beach and I did some sensory play.

Daddy wanted to build a castle

We saw a seal coming up in the waves.

The sensory box (usually with beans or sand) at preschool is no comparison.
I just love playing in it and getting dirty.

Daddy built a moat around the castle.

Not sure if he knew how close the waves were coming up to his castle, but the next day his castle was gone. :(

We took a dip in the pool. I ended up scratching his back up pretty bad. But I had so much fun! :)

This is us the next morning. Legs crossing and surfing.

We all ventured out to Tillamook.

I didn't see any live cows there, but we did see plenty on the drive.

I had a lot of fun in Oregon with everyone! This will probably be my last trip for a while until my brother gets a little bigger (but first he has to come out).
