Dinner Before Confirmation

Hideaway Pizza.

Egg Hunt

This small patch was for just the little kids; a second patch behind was for 5-8yo; and a third much larger patch was for kids up to 12yo, hundreds of eggs all told.

Early Skates

X asked for rollerskates for his birthday too, I found these at a consignment store, barely worn, the right size. He's been on them everyday since.

Matchy-Matchy

Girls found exact same shirt as M's in smaller size for M2 at consignment and have been going around dressed as twins. It's actually difficult to tell them apart at quick glance.

Sleep

100 Days

Skating Along

Kids' idea to go skating for Drew's birthday. Z and X used a walker to practice balance and mostly stay upright.

Matchy-Matchy

G's birthday present arrived today: same as BB's, one size bigger.

The Lingo

J following in the footsteps of her talkative siblings -- some of her repeatable renditions:

McDonalds: "donkey-dohs" and later morphed into "mickey dondos"
Pistachios: "tashios"
Baby sandwich: "baby san-yitch"
To read a book to her: "can you reag it?"
Peanut butter: "pink-a buh-er"
Stickers: "taekers"
Putting "s" on the end of Chinese words like "xie zi-s" (shoes); "chuan zi-s" (dress); "wua zi-s" (socks); "ku zi-s" (pants)

Fiesty

This morning X and J were arguing/fighting and at one point J grabbed at X's hair and pulled. Naturally X started screaming in pain -- J admonished, "Yong, stop creaming."
