Daddy tried out a new camera today when we spent the day at the park! In fact we went to TWO different parks, once before I went for chinese class, and again after I got back!. Needless to say, we were soooo pooped out we went to bed at 7pm. Sharp.
Also, Christian ran around soooo much he killed his shoes. Both of them too! And they were almost brand new too! Check out the last two pictures!
We spent the morning at the local farmer’s market! Daddy also assembled a wagon that Mommy bought and Caitlin and I trooped in gleefully! We bought a whole bunch of stuff like, strawberries, pears, Mexican tomatoes, cilantro, chilies,plums, nectarines, bananas, and other stuff I can’t pronounce! When we got home, we played in our home-made sandpit (FINALLY!!) and then we had a quick dinner before it started freezing again when the sun set. :\
I had my first ever ballet performance today and Mommy & Daddy came by to cheer me on!!
It was awesome fun and even though I was a little nervous, a wink and a smile from them made everything just better!!!
OMG!!! It’s been snowing ALL day today! Our school closed early and we don’t have any school tomorrow either. We got about a little over a foot of snow, and that’s a big person foot, not mine!
Daddy came home early and we got all bundled up to try and make our very first snowman!!!!
It ended up looking more like a snow-midget but we had fun anyway! And then after that, we had some hot chocolate as we got out of really soggy clothes!! Inside the house of course!
We finally made a trip to the Dallas North Park Mall to ‘run around and get all tired so that we’d sleep by 7pm on a weekend’ according to Daddy.
We had more fun posing around though!
Yeah!! I finally get to celebrate my birthday with everyone here in Dallas!! I was jetsetting last year in Milan with Mommy and Caitlin and aunty Mandy.
I got to have my cake too!! It was a delectable fruit tart cake! I’d give up a trip to Europe just for this for sure!!!
Wow, just when we finally got over our jetlag, we’ve got to head back to Dallas. We had a really busy time with all our grandparents, uncles, aunties, and cousins!!! We need to spend a little more time here!
I think the best part of this trip was hanging out with Kongkong, Mama, Yeye, and Popo!
Ok! Someone forgot to wake us up for this !! >(
Apparently, EVERYONE except Christian and me went to a New Year’s Eve party. And I’ve got pictures to prove it!
Looking after us must be real tough coz Mommy & Daddy took a little getaway while Caitlin and I stayed at Kong Kong & Mama’s place.
It looked like a real nice place and I guess it was an old colonial building from world war 2… definitely before we were born.
And of course, everything needs to be capped off with a Ferrari 599 GTB, the highest performace 12-cylinder berlinetta ever produced at Maranello… 
(what!? I’m a boy, I ought to know these things!). *sigh* unfortunately, the closest Mommy & Daddy got was to park next to it… oh well!
 We finally made it to Singapore for two weeks to visit. It was a really rushed trip coz it was so quick and not like our normal two month stay. We were in and out just like THAT!
Here’re some pictures that we took while we were at Sentosa, this island off Singapore. Caitlin squished the snake’s tail…

After that we went to Underwater World. We got on a travellator and snaked around some awesome underwater glass tunnels… It was fantastic!!

And then after all that, we went to the beach and built some sandcastles! 
We caught a big jet to New York City on Thanksgiving day and then we picked up Aunty Maiko, Sean, and Hanna and then we all drove up to Boston to have Thanksgiving dinner with the Vargas’! It was alot of fun coz we got to stay up late. Real late! I mean, like reaaallly late, like midnight!!!
We drove back down to NYC where we stayed at Sesame Street!!!! We met Elmo, Bert, Ernie, and a bunch of others but I didn’t get to see Big Bird though…
And thanks for letting me sign off on your wall, Aunty Maiko!!
We all went to the water park this Halloween weekend with my BFF, Avyln, and her mommy & daddy. It was a real HUGE indoor water park and we stayed there for 3 days and 2 nights! We went swimming and sliding everyday and the best part was that we could camp in our rooms! Oh, and we ate and ate and ate coz we were always so hungry from being in the water!
We also had a Halloween party there too! I was a fairy, Avlyn was a mermaid, and Christian was a lil’ lion! There was music and dancing and Avlyn and I boogied the night away!!
We got fish after lunch today. No, not fish & chips silly, that was for lunch!
Caitlin helped daddy put in the rocks and plants while Mommy filmed the whole thing as Daddy poured the fish in. I helped by not getting in the way and tipping the tank over. 
We got 14 fish altogether! 2 fighting fish, 1 window cleaner fish, 4 booyadayaa fish, and 7 lil’ joojoobooboo fish.
We put the tank outside our room so each night before we go to bed, we go and say “gnite lil fishies” and turn off the tank lamp. And in the morning, we’ll wake them and feed them before heading to school. Well, that’s the plan so far.
Mommy! Daddy! 
We 
need 
a 
TRAMPOLINE!!! 
Besides going cave exploring, we also spent a day at the beach. Fun in the sun!! Pepper also came along for this road trip but he didn’t like the sand much so he stayed in the car most of the time. We picked live shells with lil’ hermit crabs in them, periwinkles, and lil’ fish at the tide pool. And we also built sand castles and ehm… sand hills, sandwiches, and all!
Daddy was taking all the pics that day so that’s why you don’t see him anywhere. Maybe one day mommy will help take some too! (ok, so daddy made me type that)
Since I’m quite a few years to becoming Lara Croft, I’ve resigned myself to my next most favorite adventurer – Dora the Explorer!!
We all drove down to San Antonio and explored the natural limestone caves!! It went really deep underground to about 200 feet! I told daddy that I was scared so he hung onto my hand real tight while Mommy was hugging Christian. But Daddy said I was a real trooper coz I walked the entire one mile through the entire journey! down steep slopes and all too!!
But first we went treasure hunting!! Well, actually we panned for precious stones. I got some real pretty gems too!!
