Remember this? This was about a week ago when I was practicing football with Daddy for the first time. Since then, I have had many mini-practices with Daddy after he came home from work, and I'm proud to report that my technical skills have vastly improved since then. The improvement is so great that Daddy decided that I'm now good enough to wear something more serious for this weekend's practice!
Remember Uncle Steven who visited us from last November? Along with the Chelsea shirt (that Daddy disliked so much), he also brought me this smart looking England kit! And this is what I got to wear yesterday! Can you believe that? I'm actually wearing the same shirt that...
So what kind of practice did I do this time? Well, I started off with some stretching exercise as warm up...
Then I immediately started asking for the ball! "Give me that ball!"
Here, Daddy was showing me how to beat the offside trap with anticipation, vision, and skills...
There were times that I really wondered who taught Daddy how to play Football. His passing was confusing, if not frustrating, at times...
Over here, Daddy and I were discussing who is to take this next freekick. He was begging for it, but I just pretended like I couldn't hear him talk (as usual.) Determination, with a eye for goal!
And here is one of Daddy's favorite picture of me dirbbling...
And if any of you think that this picture above is 'staged', and that I really couldn't dribble the ball at 18-months old, just watch this...
Yup! I have just re-defined what U-20 really means!
You've seen Daddy's favorite picture. Here's my pick!
Happy Mother's Day! Just look at this picture. No, you don't have to say Thank You. And I love you too!
Love,
Addison
Okay, stop starring at my picture! It's not THAT great! In fact, when this picture was taken, it was late in the evening after we went out to have dinner with both Grandmas.
Mommy, Daddy, and Myself took Grandpa's and Grandma's out for dinner tonight. Although today is not really Mother's Day (it's tomorrow!), we decided we want to be wise, and didn't want to join the crowd. So we took them out to Roy's Restaurant for an early Mother's celebration. Below is a video of the Grandma's opening their Mother's Day presents from me.
So after a 2 hour long dinner, we went home. But I was already sound asleep in the car on our way home. And when I woke up again, I realized I was already sitting in my high chair at home, in the kitchen area. The next thing I knew, Daddy's camera was clicking non-stop. Here are some pictures that came from that late night photo shoot.
I didn't get to go to sleep until really late. But I'm sure it's worth it because today is Mother's Day!
Alright, I'll be honest. I don't even remember why I was laughing. I was either very tired... to a point that I thought everything is funny, or I was just trying to laugh my way out of finishing that bowl of rice. You can just pick one of these 2 reasons for me.
Yes, can you believe that? No one remembered my birthday, again! And I'm not even expecting them to call wish me a Happy Birthday. All I want is some birthday presents! Is that asking for too much?
So how did I celebrate my birthday today? Well, I celebrated my birthday by allowing Daddy to take these few shots of me.
What else? Mommy baked me a very yummy Japanese style Cheese Cake.
Yup, that's it! So, it's not too late to send in your gifts now!
My GMail in-box is flooded with emails asking me why the swimming pool video taken from the Las Vegas trip cannot be played. Well, when you first bought the computer that you used to watch the video, was Daddy still single, skinny, and good looking? I thought so! That's why!
Backed by popular demand, I have re-uploaded the same video to YouTube, instead of Vimeo. The reason why it went to Vimeo in the first place is because YouTube claimed that I have violated its copyright policy with the used of the song playing in the background. So what they did was to mute the entire audio track. Since I thought the background song/music sort of fit into this video, and I don't want it to be removed, I uploaded the same 'MTV' to Vimeo instead.
But now that my Readers are telling me that their computer is so outdated and slow that HD-quality video cannot be played, I guess I'll re-broadcasted it to YouTube, without the song. Here's the video.
Or you can jump to my post by clicking here. The post itself is also updated.
I fell backwards from my own (little kids) chair, hit the back of my head, and then my nose was bleeding. What's the big deal? Yet, Daddy insisted to take me to the Hospital. What was he thinking? He must have watched too many movies... like the one below. (To save you some time, jump/start from the 2 min 36 seconds mark and you'll know what I'm talking about.)
And if you also happen to think like my Dad, watch this video below, taken while waiting at the ER, and see if you agree with me, or my Daddy.
Did I look like I was suffering from some kind of head trauma?
Anyway, after about 2 hours of waiting, my name was finally called. (So much for being at an Emergecy room when I have to wait for 2 hours!) The Doctor came to look at me. Asked the following questions:
Did he lose consciousness? Dad: No.
Did he vomit? Mom: No.
When did he fell? Mom: Around 6 p.m
Did he asked to ride on a motorcycle? Dad: No.
He's good to go. I'm going to discharge him. Schedule an appointment with his primary physician tomorrow for follow up. Me: Told you so!
I've done enough indoor football practice inside the house that, today, Daddy took me outside for some 'grass-root' football.
Not being too familiar with surface, I was a bit hesitant in the beginning to dribble. Meanwhile, Daddy somehow thought that he still has the lungs to run around, that he almost passed-out. He was totally on the ground, and I had to pull him up, and to give him some encouragement. The video below is a bit long... but if you hang in there till the end, you'll see how I helped Daddy 'to stand on his feet!'
I've just noticed that I have left out this batch of pictures from last week. They are nothing special. Just some pictures of me helping out to clean the kitchen floor. You can see from the last picture that I wasn't too thrilled to learn that my hard work wasn't recognized!
I’m sure that most of my readers will remember this trip. Yes, this was Mommy and Daddy’s babymoon trip taken shortly before I was born. Yes, that was me inside Mommy’s tummy. Can you believe that?
Anyway, now that I’m around, Mommy and Daddy don’t really qualify for babymoon anymore. But wait! What about me? I think I’m allowed to have a babymoon before ‘the baby’ is born. In this case, the baby I’m referring to, is my, I’m told, little sister! Because once she is born, I will no longer get any peace and quiet time alone by myself. The more I think of it, the more I feel that I deserve a trip before my little sister is born.
So, where shall we go? I suggested Osaka, Japan because of my fan base, but Daddy said ‘no flying!’ (I guess he didn’t know there are usually 2 pilots in each international flight, and that he doesn’t need to fly the plane himself.)
Mommy suggested Las Vegas. But Daddy said he doesn’t think I can sit in a car for so many hours. Hello, Daddy? Remember? We’ve been to Las Vegas together once before!? Daddy paused and think for a moment and agreed to go on a trip to Las Vegas.
So on this past Saturday, we left to spend a night at Grandma’s house in Riverside, before heading to Las Vegas on the following day. A few hours later, we arrived at Las Vegas! They look just like the last time when I visited. The one thing that was different, was the hotel that we stayed this time.
If you remember, we were very fortunate to have the opportunity to stay at the Bellagio during our last visit. This time, we stayed at this hotel called THEhotel. If you have never heard of it before, let me help you with a virtual tour of our room.
Thanks to some secret connections that Daddy has, we were upgraded to an end-unit room with a magnificent view, both at night and during the day. Let’s start with the day view first!
Now, here comes the night view!
I don’t know about you, but I was very impressed by this hotel and the room so far! I especially liked the window that goes all the way to the floor. It fits my height perfectly!
So are you impressed yet? Wait till I show what is in the bathroom… my private in-room swimming pool!
Yes, I know this is not a swimming pool. But this bath tub is so deep and long that I can literally do laps in it, had Daddy taught me how to swim! Speaking of swimming, did I tell you that this hotel has an awesome (real) pool?
With all these activities, of course I had to eat a bit more than usual. That’s why whenever we're in Las Vegas, we always spent quite some time at the buffet restaurants.
It’s been a fun trip and before I knew it, it was time to leave town. I truly wished that we can stayed for a few more days, but I guess there will always be next time… with my little sister! Before I go, here are some pictures that we took during this trip.
Today, I was invited to Grandpa’s Deacon Ordination ceremony. Don’t know what a Deacon is? Me neither! But if you click here, it should provide you with some basic information.
But before we arrive at the church, we have to do something more important first… food!
We met Aunt Annie and Uncle Joseph at this Malaysian restaurant near Grandpa’s church, and we had a big meal there before heading over to the ceremony. How big? Let me show you some pictures!
I hope these pictures didn’t make you hungry. Because looking at these pictures now certainly make me regained my appetite.
While at the Restaurant, I got to tried almost every dish that was shown above. And of course, I got to spent some quality time with Aunt Annie and Uncle Joseph too!
After our early dinner, it’s time to head over to the church where the ceremony was held. It was a 2 hour long ceremony, and since it was conducted in both Mandarin and English, I didn’t have a clue what they were talking about. (Just in case you wonder, Mommy and Daddy only speak to me in Cantonese at home.) Therefore, I was bored rather early, and it means that I got to go play outside, or I would scream out loud for attention. Here is a video of me running around after I have won the battle of refusing to sit still.
A short while later, it was time for the actual ceremony. Here are some footages:
Before I knew it, the evening was already coming to end. While on our way home, Mommy mentioned to me that there will be another trip coming up… as long as I am a Good Boy! I can’t wait to find out what’s been lined up for me!
Although this is not my first Easter, this is certainly the first Easter that I can run around by myself. Therefore, how else better to celebrate this Easter by running around looking for some Easter eggs?
And just so you know, I’m still accepting Easter gifts! Here’s what I got for Easter from last year… just to give you an idea.
I turned 16th month old yesterday! Just when I thought no one would remember my 16th month old birthday, I was surprised by a parcel today!
When I learned that it was a postal-woman ringing the doorbell, I thought she was delivering just another gadget that Daddy ordered online. But it turned out that the parcel was addressed to “Addison Chan!” Another look at the stamps told me that the parcel was from Hong Kong. Since I had to pretend that it was no big deal, I asked Daddy to open it for me, while I slowly walked away back to my toys.
Wow! A pair of Adidas! It was Aunt Phoebe who bought me this pair of Adidas! I knew someone would remember that it was my 16th month old birthday! And I knew that I can count on Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Chris! For the rest of you… shame on you!
I just want you to know that I had a great time at your house this weekend!
Although it took me a few months, but I have finally mastered the skills of slam dunking the basketball, thanks to the basketball set that you bought me for Christmas.
I also want to thank you for buying me all the toys that you see from this video below, so that I get to throw them around your house.
I’m sure you know by now that I like dogs. And one of the many highlights of visiting your place is the opportunity to see Buddy and Lucky. I find it funny whenever Lucky and Buddy are barking at me, because they totally remind me of Daddy’s scolding whenever he thinks I’m being naughty.
As much as I like playing basketball in your living room, I also like spending time in your front yard running around. That front yard area is so big that I feel like I can run a marathon there.
Ever since I mentioned in my blog that you have a few orange trees in your garden, I received a lot of fan mails asking about those trees. Questions like if the trees are actually orange in color, or if I have to climb up the trees to pick the oranges. It was after reading all those fan mails that I realized… not that many kids around town have the luxury of having private oranges trees at home. Knowing that makes it more fun when I am picking oranges from your garden!
Meanwhile, it was some great fun meeting your brother, Grand Uncle Luiz! Although this weekend’s meeting was not my first time meeting him, he and I remain as very good friends! However, can you ask him to shave his beard next time when we meet? Because kissing him on his cheek was a bit painful on my lips. Oh, also, is it true that he used to throw balls at Daddy and Uncle Chris when they were young?
I had so much fun at your place this weekend that I really didn’t want to leave your place that evening! But I guess I can always come back to visit you again on another weekend. Although I will surely miss Great Grandma and Grand Uncle Luiz as they are flying back to Hong Kong in a few days.
Last but not least, I want to share with you a few pictures that I took while sitting on the trunk of Mommy’s BMW. I hope you’ll like these pictures as much as I do.
Here are a few pictures taken at the lawn outside of my house. Mommy likes to take me out for walks, even when Daddy is at work. While out there, my favorite place is the lawn which I knew if even if I fell, it won’t hurt as much.
Come on! You don’t think I just completely inherited all the good looks and charm from my Daddy genetically, right? I have to take daily vitamins to keep my bones strong, and my brain boosted! Lately, I’m even able to put the gummy bear vitamin in my mouth, myself!
Today, Mommy and Daddy took me to Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Riverside to spend the day. As mentioned from previous post, Grand Uncle Luiz is also in town, and so does Great Grandma! As expected, they are always thrilled to see me every time. Here are some pictures that we took throughout the day.
Now, here’s a video of me picking up the picking up oranges and putting them into the bag. I don’t know if I have mentioned to you before, there are quite a few orange trees in the front yard of my Grandparents house. Every time when we visit them, Mommy always picked a bag loads of oranges home. Recently, I was allowed/brought-along to the front yard to help picking oranges from the tree. I even got to help out by putting the oranges into the bag as soon as they were picked from the tree. I got this routine down so well that… that I even remember how to do this when I’m not in the front yard!
Yes, that’s my Grand Uncle Luiz. And 'no,’ I didn’t pull his mustache. I don’t know why would anyone dare to mess with someone like him. I’ve heard all kinds of horror stories about him… like how he lifted up Uncle Chris by just pulling on his ears, or how Daddy complained to Grandma all the time about how Grand Uncle Luiz was mean to him. Although all these alleged incidents happened 30+ years ago, after spending a few hours with him today, all I have to say is…
DON’T BELIEVE IN THOSE RUMORS!
He seemed to be a very nice Grand Uncle to me! He held me up all the time, played with me, and even took me out for a walk as soon as he over-heard me wanting to go out for a walk.
So Grand Uncle Luiz, don’t worry! I won’t believe in a word that your 2 favorite nephews said about you!
(And for those who are still confused on how Grand Uncle Luiz relates to me, he’s the elder brother of my Grandma, who is also the Daddy of Aunt Juanita.)
Daddy once told me that he doesn’t believe fruits and milk should be mixed together for consumption. Obviously, as you can see from this video, Mommy didn’t agree with Daddy. In this case, Mommy made this special “Papaya Milk Shake” just for me… and let’s just say that it tasted… very unique. So unique that my taste buds weren’t quite used to. Basically, I almost threw up. Maybe a few drops of alcohol might help. But that experiment has to wait another 20 years or so. Until then, here’s the video…
This Elmo toy was a gift from Grandma from way back when I was much younger. I didn’t appreciate it much back then, but now that I have learned how to turn this thing on/off at wish, I like this Elmo a lot more! Below is a video of me trying to do the dance moves of Elmo…
Here’s another video taken on the following day. This Elmo has been my buddy lately!
Today, Mommy and Daddy took me out to have lunch with her old schoolmates. Yes, people that actually went to (the same) school with Mommy (and in this case, Daddy as well). It means that these people must have known Mommy and Daddy for at least 80+ years!
So we arrived at this vegetarian restaurant and the first thing that I saw… Hellloooo!?
こんにちは. わたしの名前は Addison – dess!
Whoo la la! A Japanese girl! I didn’t know Mommy and Daddy went to school in Japan!!? One look at Daddy and he immediately introduced me to Aunt Sherry and her daughter Yuna. It turns out that Aunt Sherry is the one who went to the same school with Mommy and Daddy… in Hong Kong, and it is her husband who is Japanese.
We sat down for a while and it wasn’t long before Aunt Winnie showed up with his latest boyfriend, Alex.
Throughout the luncheon, I was a bit cranky because I didn’t know that there will be a girl joining me for lunch, and I felt that I wasn’t at my best… to impress. Furthermore, as you can see from this video below, I was sitting way too far away from Yuna, and I was so worried that Yuna couldn’t get close to me.
Fortunately, Yuna later had a chance to come closer to me. I have to say I was very impressed by her demeanor because most girls wouldn’t be able to control themselves once they get within touching distance of me. I guess the fact that Aunt Sherry (Yuna’s Mom) was there did play a factor.
Needless to say, both Yuna and myself stole the show all afternoon. Here’s a video of Aunt Winnie playing with Yuna and me.
Last but not least, here are just a few pictures that Daddy took today.
Okay, people! When I was in my Mommy’s tummy, my Guest List looks like this.
It has been almost a month since I announced that I will be having a younger brother, or sister, come July of this year. And this is what his/her Guest List looks like.
Yes! Sad, isn’t it? No one cared to drop my future brother/sister a note to congratulate him/her for having such a good looking older brother! And when I wrote ‘no one’, it literally means that the Guest List has zero entry! (At time of typing this post.)
I don’t know about you, but I certainly do NOT look forward to explaining this phenomenon to my younger brother/sister. After all, what do you expect me to tell him/her? Do you want me to tell him/her that because I’m better looking and that’s why more people signed my Guest List? Or do you want me to tell him/her that people just like me better than him/her?
So instead of having myself to deal with this ‘explanation’ in a few years’ time, I’m just going to point him/her to YOU! And you know who you are! Oh, and let me warn you ahead of time… it might be easier if it turns out that I’m having a younger brother. If it happens to be a younger sister… I’m sure you all know how girls are like when they are upset! Just don’t come running to me to find out what kind of girly dolls she likes!
Once again, posting has been light lately because of the various tasks that I have been doing these days. I didn’t know that the older you can, the more work that you have to do. Looking at Mommy’s tummy now, I asked myself if I rather be the one who is living inside Mommy’s tummy now? Or do I rather be the big brother? I think I’ll stick with being the big brother for now.
So what do you think of that picture above? Do you think we look alike? That’s Daddy to the left, and me on the right. Daddy’s picture was taken when he was living in Taiwan. My picture was taken during the Chinese New Year Week, when I spent the week at Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Riverside. As for the cars, I didn’t find out where did that car come from (on the left); but I can tell you that the BMW convertible is Grandma’s car.
Anyway, back to the picture(s)! If you like this picture on top, then you’re going to like all the pictures that Daddy took during that Chinese New Year Week holiday.
Meanwhile, here are some pictures that Daddy touched up, from Grandma’s collection.
Here is a video of me having some fun in Grandma’s BMW and Grandpa’s truck!
With so many pictures and videos, it has taken me longer than I thought to get them processed and uploaded. Finally, they are all done, and I’m proud to share with you some of the highlights of my Chinese New Year week-long celebration at Grandma and Grandpa’s place in Riverside.
Chinese New Year Day (年初一)
Since we were at my other Grandparents house for dinner last night, we didn’t get home until late. To make things worst, Daddy noticed the tire of our car was running flat, and he was a bit concern if the tire can do another 70 miles trip to Grandma’s house. So the first thing that Daddy did this morning was to brought the car to a Tire shop for check-up. The prognosis of both rear tires were not good, and Daddy decided to get some new tires. Which means that by the time he got home, it was already late in the morning. With packing has yet to be completed, we did not leave the house until 1pm in the afternoon.
(By the way, just in case you are wondering, Daddy took a week off from work to celebrate Chinese New Year with the family.)
After an hour or so driving, we arrived at Grandma’s house, and immediately, she fell in love with my outfit! Seriously, how could you not? Here’s a video of me playing basketball with my Chinese New Year outfit.
What I had almost forgotten, was that I bought a birthday gift for Uncle Chris back in December. And I thought it was a great opportunity to present to him his belated birthday gift, on Chinese New Year day!
Then towards the evening, I got to sit by the Mahjong table for the first time!
And here are some pictures…
Chinese New Year Day 2 (年初二)
I pretty much spent the entire day doing what you see in the video below. Let me tell you, I was so tired by evening that I fell asleep immediately. Grandpa and Grandma’s house was just too big for me to be running around non-stop all day.
Chinese New Year Day 3 (年初三)
Aunt Phoebe arrived today from Hong Kong this morning. Not that I didn’t get enough attention in the past few days, but with Aunt Phoebe around, I’m just going to get even more attention. Otherwise, I pretty much did the exact same things as I did in the past few days… which is playing my toys. However, I was also introduced to a new toy today! It’s the organ. No one has told me that the organ has been sitting there since the day I was born. Had it not for the brilliance thinking of my dear Grandma, who thought that I might be interested in expressing the musical side of me, I would have never gotten the chance to play this fine piece of of music instrument!
Here's a video of me playing my toys while getting everybody’s attention.
Here are some pictures that we took on this Day 3 of Year of Ox…
Chinese New Year Day 4 (年初四)
I’m beginning to get used to living in Riverside by now! There are so much room for me to run around the house that I didn’t even think I was at home. I thought I was at the playground! Today continues to be another day of running around the house, and taking plenty of pictures. By request, I put on the same outfit that I wore on Chinese New Year Day 1, just so that Aunt Phoebe can take a few pictures with me in such outfit. I was told that I brought shines to the outfit, and I made it look even more expensive! For the record, it was my dear Grandma who bought this outfit for me while she was in HKG just a few months ago. Yes, I know I'm good looking. You don’t have to tell me.
Chinese New Year Day 5 (年初五)
It’s time to go home! We woke up and after breakfast, Mommy and Daddy started to pack. We arrived home by mid-afternoon, and things slowly returned to normal. It’s been a fun and exciting week. Once again, Happy Chinese New Year to you all!
Now that I’m back at home after a week-long celebration at Grandma’s house, I can finally find some time to update my blog.
First off, Chinese New Year’s Eve! We went to Grandma and Grandpa house in Arcadia for our Chinese New Year’s Eve Dinner, also known as 團年飯. (For the record, Chinese New Year’s Eve was last Sunday, January 25.)
We got there a bit early and I spent some time running around the house, while Grandma and Grandpa were busy preparing dinner. As the evening approached, all the Grand-Aunts and Grand-Uncles started to arrive. There were lots of people there. Aunt Annie, Uncle Joseph, and Uncle Steven were there too. Unfortunately, my cousin, Annabelle, couldn’t make it because Aunt Vivian took her back to Malaysia to celebrate Chinese New Year. I guess she just has to wait until next time to find out how much more handsome I am since she last saw me.
As you can see from the pictures below, I wasn’t kidding when I said there were lots of people there! I guess when it is 團年飯, it really means business, and you better show up! I’m glad that I did!
Right after dinner, I spent more time running around the house, and this time, I had the help of Grand-Aunt Jean, who was kind enough to take the time to show me the best way to take a step up a stair.
Later on, it was time for Grandpa to play with me!
And of course, before we left, Grandma gave us all 利是 to ring in the New Year!
Today is the first day of Chinese New Year (of Ox). Also known as 大年初一. We woke up early this morning and immediately, we hurried to get ready to leave the house to Grandma’s house in Riverside to 拜年.
While I stole the show with cameras snapping non-stop, as usual, everyone kept telling me that I need to soon share my toys with… who again?
It will be the Year of Ox! May this year be a “bull run” year for Daddy, so that he can buy me more toys! May this year be full of joy for Mommy, like a laughing cow.
Today is Mommy’s birthday, and Daddy took a day off from work to spend the day with Mommy and I.
We started the day with my usual wake-up hours, followed by some breakfast fed by Daddy. Mommy got to sleep-in because… it’s her birthday! A bit later, when Mommy woke up, we immediately got dressed and headed out to lunch!
We had our lunch at this French Bakery in South Coast Plaza. Mommy ordered a crepes, while Daddy ordered a sandwich. Here are some pictures…
After lunch, we headed back to the store where Daddy bought Mommy's birthday gift. Daddy picked up all the wrong sizes, and Mommy had to exchange them all.
Afterwards, we walked around the shopping mall for a bit, and Daddy bought me a pair of Puma-Ferrari shoes! Not only they look good, they also look fast! Yes, I know today is not my birthday… but they were on sale!
Since we had an early dinner reservation, it didn’t take long before it was time to head to the restaurant. And Daddy picked Roy’s at Newport Beach to celebrate Mommy’s Birthday tonight. I’ve heard good reviews of Roy’s. But not until I tasted their dishes, I am convinced that Roy knows how to prepare a real seafood dish! Their food is so yummy! And the deserts were just too yummy to use any word to describe it! Check out these photos and put your imagination and taste buds in high gear!
To top off the evening, we even received a souvenir from Roy’s. A picture of Mommy, Daddy, and Myself! (Daddy thinks that I look like Aunt Zabrina (when she was young, many years ago) in this picture. What do you think?)
Those of you who are old like my Dad, or older than my Dad, I’m sure you have seen this commercial before.
And if you don’t know what’s the big deal about this commercial, then let me tell you that my Uncle Chris is featured in this commercial. And just in case you don’t recognize him, he appears in the 51st second into the commercial.
So when Daddy showed me this video, I asked Daddy: “What is Uncle Chris looking at? What’s on the other side of the fence?”
Daddy said: “I don’t know. I’ll ask him for you.”
Daddy called Uncle Chris in Hong Kong and asked: “Hey, my Son wants to know what’s on the other side of the fence when you shot your 維他奶 commercial.”
Uncle Chris: “Girls. Plenty of Girls.”
Daddy said: “Go back to sleep! You are not talking sense. Sorry to woke you up.”
Well, you should all know by now that I was at Aidan’s Birthday party yesterday. And during the party, something happened that told me that… Uncle Chris was not lying! When you’re so good looking, it’s not unusual to have girls standing on the other side of the fence looking at you! And if you don’t believe me, look at this video below, and pay attention to the left side of the screen!
That poor girl! She must have waited for a long time before she had the courage to approach me, or to even try to touch me. She was totally throwing herself at me… even thought there was a fence there. But her Mom just made the decision (for her) that her daughter is not good enough for me. I hope she didn’t cry too much last night. More importantly, I hope she will forgive her Mom for dragging her away from me. Anyway, although I don’t know who she is, but just in case she has found this web site, and has been secretly reading my blog, repeatedly, I just want to tell her… “Hi! It was nice seeing you!”
Oh, and Uncle Chris… I knew you were telling the truth!
I can’t believe that January of 2009 is not even over yet, and I have already attended my first party! It is a birthday party of Aidan, who is the son of my Mommy’s good friend, Judy. It’s his 3-year old birthday and his Mommy and Daddy threw him a party at Jump ‘n Jammin in Arcadia.
As you can see from the video below, this place is massive! And it is full of kids! Kids that are a bit older than me. It’s okay, because I don’t mind being the youngest in the crowd. But the thing is… they are allowed to run around everywhere, while I have to hold Mommy or Daddy’s hand most of time. Daddy told me that if I don’t hold him tight, these kids were going to ran me over. I dare them!
“I don’t recommend you go there if you have even a bit of a headache.” Daddy said.
Of course I disagreed with Daddy! Because there were so many things to do there. For example, you can see from the video below that I was doing slides…
Even if I was doing nothing particular, you can still see from this video below that I had fun playing with that giant cushion.
I was having so much fun that I almost forgotten that I was there to celebrate Aidan’s Birthday! So when it was time for food and cake, we headed off to a dining room inside this complex...
And yes, those are all Guests of Aidan. And if you don’t believe me, check out this video when everyone in the room sings Happy Birthday to him.
Yeah, he wasn’t that responsive by then because his parents thought that he was tired, and in need of a nap. But the fact was, I knew he just had too much to drink when he was sitting with those girls.
When most people were ready to leave the party after all the food and cake, Daddy wanted to try the big-boys-slide at least once before we leave. Here’s a video of it…
No, I didn’t like it. I prefer the Small-Boys-Slide for now.
Here are some pictures that we took from the party…
Hello, Folks! How was your Holiday? It’s been a while since I last posted to my blog, because I wanted to take a short break from blogging, so that I can enjoy all the cool toys that I received this past Christmas. Now that the holiday is over, it’s time for Daddy to get back to work, while I get back to my normal routine napping schedule.
Today, I want to show you a short video that Daddy took, showing me walking sideway, or “打橫行”(in Chinese.) According Mommy and Daddy, it’s not all that bad if one can “打橫行”in a company, at home, or even in a relationship. But Daddy said he only let me “打橫行”at home because he was video-taping me. Otherwise, Daddy said, I wil not be “打橫行-ing” all that much, especially when he’s around.
Remember my New Year’s Eve party from last year? Daddy said we won’t be partying this year because I need to go to bed way before midnight. Personally, I blame Uncle Chris for not being around because if he’s here, Daddy would have taken me to Grandma’s place to ring in the new year, just so that Daddy and Uncle Chris can play their favorite game.
Well, since I won’t be staying up late tonight… to all my Families and Friends from around the world, Happy New Year to you!
As 2008 comes to an end, I want to take a moment to thank all my fans from around the world for your continuous support of this site/blog! You have shown me the relationship between a good looking boy and good web-site traffic. And when your handsomeness is world class, your web-site’s viewers are automatically from worldwide. As you can see from this report below, my site had 2500+ visits in 2008, from more than 20 countries. These are some Matt Damon / Justin Timberlake numbers! No jokes!
The fact that I had 2 hits to my web-site from an iPhone shows that my fans just couldn’t stop thinking about me, even when they’re driving, shopping, pooping, walking, or waiting (for whatever.)
Below is a high-level summary of all the major statistic to my blog/site in 2008.
Today, we went out to have dinner with Grandma and Grandma at 鼎泰豐 restaurant in Arcadia. If you haven’t been there before, I highly recommend you to pay a visit to this place. Based on the look on Daddy’s face, I can tell that their food is good!
Right after dinner, we went back to Grandma and Grandpa’s house. Here’s a video of Grandma asking for an “Addison Kiss.”
And 'no', I wasn't trying to run away. I was just trying to play with Bagel, the dog.
