Sunny days in Vancouver

...
The weather has been very good the past week! Sun sun sun, so nice outside! Last Friday Mommy and I went to visit Kolton (we visit at least once a week) and took a stroll around the park by their house. It was SO bright outside! Mommy brought my two pairs of sunglasses, one for me to wear of course and the other for little cousin Kolton. The sunglasses are still too big for both of us but I managed to keep mine on for a little while. Kolton's getting bigger really fast, he's looking chubby now (that's what Po Po says).

Here's Po Po with me and Kolton, in our hats too!

I enjoyed our little stroll... for a while, anyway!
Hey you can see my two little teeth here!

Kolton trying on his shades... doesn't he look cool!
You can see Mommy and Auntie Cindy's reflection in this, neat!

Our day at Southeast False Creek

...

Mommy says I am a big boy now... I am less fussy! Today I had a nice day out with Mommy and Daddy. Even though I missed my morning nap, I was all smiles at the restaurant and drumming away. See the video!

After lunch we walked around Southeast False Creek, near the site of the Olympic Village. It was a sunny day and I had fallen asleep as soon as I got in the car. Mommy carried me in her Baby Belle Carrier and I slept through most of the walk. See the photos, I am sleeping with Mommy and the photo with Daddy my eyes look a little droopy!

Happy Easter!

...
My first Easter! Today was Easter Sunday. It rained most of the day, so it wasn't particularly exciting, but it did end with some sunshine. I was a good boy most of the day, I didn't fuss too much. I tried some rigatoni pasta (plain) for the first time today, I had a lot of trouble holding onto those slippery things. Grandma Jackie bought me some Farley cookies - she says she had them when she was little, and so did Daddy. I like them, they are very hard so it's good to chew on. Did I mention that my second tooth had started coming in too?

Here is a video from yesterday of me with the Hippity Hop bunny that Grandma Jackie bought me. Those are her legs in the video!

Grandma Jackie's visiting!

...
My Grandma Jackie (Mah Mah) is visiting us, yay! She brought me some new toys, a 'hippity hop' dancing and singing bunny that I love, and a little jitter bunny that I love too! And some snappy new clothes too!

The night she arrived, she rocked me to sleep - and caught on camera, see the pictures below. Mah Mahs are the best!

Cousin Kolton's One-Month Celebration

...
Cousin Kolton reached his one-month of life on April 8, and to celebrate, his parents held a big dinner party at a Chinese restaurant.

According to Chinese custom, the baby's biggest celebration is at one month when the baby is (finally) allowed out of the house. An infant who reached one month of age was likely to survive, and so a "Red Egg and Ginger Party" was held, introducing the latest addition to relatives and friends.In Cantonese the occasion is pronounced "moon yeut."Traditionally, the baby's name is also announced at this time. The Red Egg and Ginger party has evolved over time into a banquet style dinner.

I was a good baby for most of the evening. But when Great-Auntie Rose and Great Uncle Pau make faces at me I don't like that and so I started screaming. :D

Here's Kolton with Great Grandma Kwok and
Great-Auntie Rose and Great Uncle Pau.

With my daddy, Uncle Andrew, Po Po, Gung Gung, and Great Grandma Kwok.

Me and Po Po. Doesn't she look nice all dressed up!
Oh, I was dressed up too in my collared shirt and dress pants!

This is Auntie Tina, one of mommy's good friends.
