Christmas 2008

We had a great time with both sides of the family this Christmas. It was special because it was David's first Christmas and we met my nephew William for the first time. What cuties together. Here are a few highlights in pics from our trip.



Plane Ride LAX to DTW
Both kids behaved remarkably. Not a peep out of David. Mia slept nearly two hours. Now why doesn't she do that at home?

Mia making her cousin Tyler work. Her cousins got a kick out of how bossy Mia can be. It was so nice to see the kids play together so well. Thanks to Tyler and Alyssa for tolerating your toddler cousin and watching Caillou's Holiday Movie a dozen times. Snow wasn't good for making a snowman, but Mia got to go on a toboggan thus emulating Caillou.

Didi's 100th Day Celebration with the Song clan. He slept through most of it, but woke up for some pics.

Out of all the possibilities at Build a Bear, what does Mia choose? There are kitties, bears, pups, elephants, even Hello Kitty, but dear Mia chooses a dinosaur and names it Rexy just like Caillou. But she does not seem very attached to it. The first time she said she wanted Rexy to sleep with me because she was scared of him. He now guards her a the foot of her bed. He really isn't cuddly with the scales and all, but it was her choice and she had a ball giving him "life". Ken posted the video on his FB account.

Didi's 100th Day with the Chow and Hu family in LA. Slept through part of this event in his honor as well.


Can't believe we're a week into 2009. Happy New Year everyone!
