 It's grandma's birthday.  We want to take a family photo to remember this wonderful occasion 

Take 1 - NG - Mei mei not looking with a blurry wasabi

 Take 5 - NG - Accidental injury to the head

 Take 8 - NG - Malfunction of the mouths of the two older kids

Take 11 - NG - The emotional boy got emotional

Take 14 - NG - Malfunction of the mouths of the dads

Take 18 - NG - facial malfunction again form the same children

Take 23 - GOoood… wait, NG - the youngest kid is missing

Take 30 - Perfect - except fashion malfunction of the younger dad.  Well this is as perfect as it gets.  

Happy Birthday, A Ma.

Race!

 

First race - Battle of the siblings

Ready, set… false start by Wasabi 

 "I thought I heard your GO", Wasabi protests

 Off we go after a restart - go go go, pump it up!

 The big sis still has the edge

 Second race - The battle of generations

 The 1980 di di is going head to head against the 2007 di di

The young one has a strong start

But the experienced one catches up as the young one faces a road block

Oh, such a close race.  The ageless one still has game.

What I want to be when I grow up...

"What do you want to be when you grow up?", asked daddy

Transportation business seems like a good start

 perhaps a captain of the sea

or a school bus driver for little kiddies

Possibly a cow girl in the outback 

 Or a well pumper for the poor in a 3rd world country

 Or perhaps a beekeeper to enjoy sweet honey

Grown up business is tiring just thinking about it.  I just want to be my goofy self.

The Only Child

 As the only child (on this trip), I get my parents' full love and attention.

 As the only child, I get to enjoy a wedding reception.

As the only child, I get a welcome cake all to myself.

As the only child, I don't have to share ba bao bing.

As the only child, I get to choose which parent holds me.

And my choice made a happy mommy on our way home.

All good times must end.  We are home safely and now I am back to being child no. 3

Back Yard B-Ball

Let's play 2 on1 B-ball bouncy-castle-style!

Mei mei, you are on my team.  D-Fence!

 Good Job mei mei, your stare caused a turn over.

Slam Dunk! 

Good job mei mei for keeping up.

Not easy being a big brother

"It's a beautiful Saturday.  I am going to take my little sister to the park. "

"Mei mei, here is how you get into the stroller." 

"Mei mei, this is how you climb up the playground."

"Mei mei, this is how you turn this ball maze thingy"

"Mei mei, this is where that little tunnel leads to."

"Mei mei, let's slide down together."

"wow, it's hard work!!"

"Lastly but not the least, clean our hands before we head home : )"

Ginger's biology trip

This was my first real trip to the biodome. I needed my big sister to show me the way.

Wow... pretty fish. "魚!" I shouted with excitement.
"This is called a lobster and it's really yummy. "said my brainy know-it-all big brother.

".. and this is tete humaine and it's yummy too." said the scary Caiman.

I had enough of the animals. Let's slide!
