To celebrate my third ever Thanksgiving, we are going to spend the evening at Uncle Kevan and Aunt Laurie’s house.
What you may not be able to tell from these pictures below, is that I actually threw up in the car, on my way to the Kwan’s residence. Mommy blamed it on Daddy’s driving; Alicia blamed it on my Daddy’s singing; and I don’t even know what/who to blame anymore… I just wanted a change of new clothes… Maybe that’s why! Let’s just say I was a bit under the weather by the time I arrived at the destination. Not only that, I had to put on a spare outfit. What? You don’t bring 2 set of clothes when you go to party? Oh well, I guess you must be too young to drink then.
Anyway, I had quite some fun running around the backyard of the Kwan’s residence. Not only that, I also got to spent plenty of time with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Joseph, and Aunt Annie. Here are the pictures.
It’s time for my 2-year-old check-up. Yeah, I appeared to be a bit shaken in this video… only because I’ve learned that I need to get on the scale, and I’m afraid that all the chocolates that I have eaten in the past few months are going to show on the scale.
Anyway, my check-up went very well. Dr. Liu said that I’m good looking as usual, and the outlook of my handsomeness is very bullish.
I’m told that her name is Sleeping Beauty. I suppose it means that she would look ‘better’ if/when she’s asleep? (Please tell me ‘yes.’) And who on earth wears this kind of dress to sleep?
Anyway, after these pictures were taken, Daddy said she’s been trying to get a kiss from him for a while, and this is the closest that she will ever get to a kiss from ‘ABC.’
I say… Daddy, if she happens to be a fan of my blog, which is very likely, and read what you have just said… I will be concerned over your personal safety when you’re at work.
To find out more about where and why I’m taking these pictures, please make a visit to my Sister’s Post here.
These pictures were taken right after I woke up from my afternoon nap. Nothing beats a cup of warm apple juice! That’s right, I like my apple juice warm, not chilled. So remember that!
What a Birthday Party! I’m sure you were overwhelmed just by watching all the videos that I posted, right?
So today, after some serious rest, I was all ready to go for another test drive on my new ride. After all, last night’s test drive was a bit dark, and I really couldn’t take a good look at my tricycle. With that said, Mommy and Daddy took me out today on this bright and sunny day. Before I show you the video, I want to take you back to… exactly 14 months ago, and see if you remember this!
Yes! That was 14 months ago! And now… this!
What do you think? Better looking? Mature? Sophisticated? Well, I’ll let you come up with the vocabulary yourself because my look is not something that can be described in one word. You might need a book for that!
Meanwhile, here’s a video of Mommy showing me how to ride my tricycle. Yes, driving lesson. Yes, Mom was teaching was teaching how to drive.
Yes, it’s my big day today! I turned 2 today and I’m very excited about it because I knew my fans will be sending me plenty of Birthday presents!
Grandma arrived early in the afternoon with her car loaded with presents. Here’s a video of me singing with Daddy, followed by a quick ID of who bought me which present.
Obviously, my little sister Alicia wasn’t too thrill with all the gifts sitting in front of her, especially when none of it belongs to her.
Soon afterwards, it was time for me to open my presents. The first item that I picked to open was a gift from Grandpa.
Wow! Yes! My Grandpa bought me a DVD player so that I can watch sing-a-long without Daddy fighting for the same TV or Laptop!
Next up, I opened a gift from Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Chris.
It’s a tricycle! Wow! I don’t even know how to ride a tricycle and Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Chris have already bought me my own! This is fantastic! But it looks like there are some assembly required before I can try out my new ride. So the Grandmas and Mommy took me out for a walk, while Daddy can spend the next few minutes (more like hours) assembling my tricycle.
Believe it or not, by the time when Daddy was done assembling the tricycle, it was already dark outside. But it didn’t stop me from taking my new tricycle out for a test drive.
Here’s a video of Daddy trying to teach me to ride my new tricycle.
As you can tell from those 2 videos above, it was getting really dark outside during my test-drive. It was time for us to head back home to open more presents!
And after opening my presents, I had some fun playing my new toys with Grandma.
Moments later, it was time for food! Plenty of food! I hope you’re not hungry right now because after seeing all the food in this video, you will be become hungrier!
But wait… Aunt Annie and Uncle Joseph just showed up, and I had to put my meal on-hold, and open up more presents!
Finally, everyone is done with their food, and it’s time for the moment that everyone has been waiting for… my Birthday cake! Again, although I couldn’t wait, I still had to sit down with Mommy, Daddy, and Alicia to take a few pictures first.
Before you watch this video below, I want to share a few interesting facts with you.
Mommy made that Birthday Cake from scratch! It tastes as good as it looks!
This is my first time blowing off birthday candles. Although it is my 2nd birthday, you can imagine that I didn’t have a clue on how to blow candles a year ago, today. Click here for a review on how I celebrated my Birthday last year.
I had so much fun blowing candles I decided to try it again with the lights off. Unfortunately, as you can tell, Daddy was holding me, and the camcorder was left to be held by someone else who doesn’t quite know how to use it. The end result is what you can see in this video below. But I’m sure you get the idea, right?
Afterwards, it was time to cut the cake. Yup, Daddy held my hand to slice the cake, and it was a real knife that I was holding! It’s so cool to be a 2-year old!
Here’s a video of Mommy cutting up the berries into bite-size pieces for me. And yes, I had that entire slice of Birthday Cake! Wouldn’t you?
My birthday party pretty much concluded after the birthday cake cutting ceremony. After all, it was getting late… so late that I’m sure it’d past Uncle Joseph’s bed time.
I want thank everyone who showed up today to my party, and those who didn’t, yet still sent in your gifts! I also want to thank those who WILL be sending me gifts after reading this post. And those who are still thinking what to get for me, I hope these videos will help eliminate a few choices that you have on your list.
Last but not least, here are some pictures that were taken from today. Enjoy!
Today, Mommy and Daddy took me to this place called Gymboree to take this Arts class. Or, Daddy likes to call it the Advance Birth Control Class, which Daddy urges all who are thinking about having kids to visit this place to:
Find out how much they are charging for each class, and
What is it like to be interacting with a ROOM FULL of Moms, and
Get an understanding/idea on to what extend can kids misbehave in public. After all, there’s no guarantee that your child will turn out to be the good one/kind who likes to sit-down, listen, and obey to everything that he/she was told.
Remember I was modeling my Halloween Costume just earlier this month? Well, the time has come and tonight was the night when I have to put my plan into action! To my first ever Trick-or-Treat, here I come!
Here’s the first door that we knocked on…
Nope, my first trick-or-treat-ee wasn’t home, but they did leave behind a bucket of candies for me to pick-up.
But the next few homes were not as hospitable. They were either hiding inside their home and pretended the door bell had never rang (which is my Dad’s tactics in the past), or they simple switched off all their lights.
From that point on, things could only get better. Below is a compilation of my next few trick-or-treat videos.
And when I stopped by homes with doggies, they would bark at me so loud that those doggies almost made feel like I’m not good looking. Here’s an video to give you an idea.
However, I did came across some very nice people whom invited us to spend some time at their place, and grab some food. As you can hear from this video below, Daddy wasn’t too interested. I would be interested if their daughter was not so ‘loud.’
I also want to thank my little sister for being so patience with me while I was having so much fun trick-or-treating. I want to give credit for behaving herself, for the most part, throughout the evening. This video below is taken when we took a short break to show Mommy how much candies I have collected.
Oh, and did I mention that some of the trick-or-treat-ers that I encountered… looked really scary!!?
We concluded the evening by stopping by the mailboxes to pick some mails. Since the mailboxes area is well lighted, this video below shows a much better view of my costume, and Alicia’s too!
It had been a wonderful evening out doing trick-or-treating! But did you know that it was also Daddy’s first time doing trick-or-treat too!? I bet you didn’t know that! So Dad, you don’t have to thank me for such a wonderful and fun evening.
