MiMi's School

Micaela shows me the book about EMS and she got an apple from her school.

I teach Micaela "apple" in sign

Micaela loves to share her snacks with me.

She laughs so loud before I leave.

I sign to Micaela "I love you" and she signs back.

Cool desert at Chili's

I met my good friend, Jessica at Chili's for dinner and we caught up with our news. She wanted to order shot last month as I forget to take some pictures of this dessert last time, but I did take some at this time! When I saw it, I thought it was big but it is so small dessert - yes, it's a shot dessert. I like 7 different layers of Chocolate... Chili's has 3 different kinds of shot dessert. Real cute and tiny dessert!!!!!

Zoe is home

Zoe was hosptalized this past weekend, but she got home today. I'm so glad that she is doing good because she is 9 years old. I missed her this past weekend.

When Zoe got home, Meggie was excited to see her as her tail wagged.

Festival Day

Dad helps MiMi

MiMi is not happy with me taking a picture of her.

Loud from parade. Firetruck. Bands.

After parade, Max was done with his karate group and had to run toward to us. Thayne met him and then they run.

Max knows I am trying to take pictures of him. He loves me chasing him while taking pictures.

My full hands! I carry Max's, MiMi's and Thayne's shoes.


Kids enjoy jumping....

MiMi is a copycat of Max.





Today is so cool and it's so much better than last year's hot weather.

MiMi's humor words for Daddy

My dad made spaghetti for all of us. The kids still don't finish their dinner. Dad told Micaela to "eat" in his serious tone. MiMi said to him, " There is no way you can be happy." Dad laughed so hard. I asked him what was going on. Nancy got my attention and told me what MiMisaid. The kids laugh, too. So, Dad tries to be calm and to calm kids so I fed Max and Dad fixed bread.

This picture is taken after Nancy told me what MiMi said to Dad.

Max looks at dinosaur book

Get Ready for school

Max and Micaela sings a song.

It's Micaela's first day of preschool.

Kids' toothbrushes

Max and Micaela have to brush their teeth before their school

Jill, please don't take a picture of me brushing my teeth.

Oh yeah. I love you because you are always my baby brother, Max!

Ok, I know how much you love me. Smooch!

MiMi joins gymnastic class

Micaela joins gymnastic class. It's so amazing to watch her for the first time. Her teacher says that Micaela is very good.

When MiMi holds with swing, her teacher says that she looks like Mickey's ears. Also, she is so strong to hold. Can't believe how good she does. I wonder if any of her ancestors was in gymnastic in China. Also, I wonder if she'd be in competition in the future, but I don't say anything about her future Olympic. Just normal competition. I'm so excited for her and can't wait until she goes to competition.

Max's first day of school

This year, Max is in kingeration. Can't believe he goes to school for his first year of school.

Max shows his new shoes off.

So sweet of Max to help MiMi's seatbelt. MiMi is very lucky to have Max like a brother.

Cute outfits!

I had a chance to take pictures of Max and Micaela's new outfits since Micaela's birthday.
They are so precious to me.
