Watch us grow!
We went to Uncle Jimmy’s house to not only watch the Super Bowl but to also wish Uncle Victor, Auntie Susie, and Baby Parker a farewell. They’re moving to Austin, TX in a couple weeks and sad to see them go.
Peanut did such as great job entertaining Parker during the party. We got some really good giggles out of him.
We will miss you all! Can’t wait to visit!
This afternoon, Janie started a giant picture on the coffee table.
Uncle Jason came over and helped draw a rocket on the paper.
Later that evening, Uncle Victor came over and drew the filipino flag and a basketball hoop.
Here’s the final product.
I must say it was very colorful and worthy of hanging up on the wall.
Janie loved the steak that Daddy cooked tonight and loved the corn-on-the-cob even more.
She also sat next to Uncle Victor, who joined us for dinner this evening. They got to do some catching-up.
We watched the Super Bowl at Uncle Victor and Auntie Susie’s house. It was nice to not have to leave the building today. Janie walked over to the other side of the building on her own and carried her Legos in her owl backpack without any protest. We’ve had a breakthrough!
She had a front-row seat at the big TV and ate some BBQ chicken, Korean spicy pork, and carrot sticks.
She hung out with Uncle Victor and they clinked their drinks over and over again.
This empty water bottle kept her occupied up until half-time.
The last half was not very exciting so the Legos came out.
Auntie Susie helped her stack all 26 letter blocks.
When it was time for bed, Janie packed up her things, let me put the backpack back on, and she said goodbye to everyone like a big girl. She even gave Uncle and Auntie a kiss kiss at the door. Thanks for having us over!
Janie threw a Holiday Party for her pals tonight. Here she is sharing her toys with Jack, Reese, and Liam.
Keenan also joined in on the fun.
Then it was time for dinner. All the kids had Daddy’s tasty pasta with meat sauce. She and Keenan had fun eating together in their dualing highchairs.
Zoe showed up later and joined the toddler table.
So cute!
Afterward, they enjoyed more playtime.
After the kids went home, Janie stayed up and partied a little more. She and Uncle Victor had a little Street Fighter match. I think she’s ready to n be Chun-Li for Halloween next year.
She’s not sure what Uncle Victor is playing but she was prepared to battle with her newly discovered index finger.
She mastered finger isolation just in time today!
Janie started solids just in time for her first Thanksgiving and joined the grown-ups at the table. Ankong helped feed her and she enjoyed her very own turkey and sweet potato.
Ama and Ankong also gave her a new toy that moves and makes music every time you touch it. It’ll be perfect for play time on the floor.
Uncle Victor and Auntie Susie also came over for dinner and hung out with her on the floor.
Janie is so loved and we have so much to be thankful for!
Tonight we had Uncle Victor and Auntie Susie over for dinner. Janie was such a good girl hanging out with us for a little while and then going to bed in time for us to have a nice dinner together.
Janie had some visitors today. She met Ama and Ankong for the first time this afternoon when she was only 5 hours old.
Later in the evening, Uncle Victor and Auntie Susie came to say “hello”.
