Dinner at the Mall

IMG_1601

We had dinner at the mall food court this evening and Janie scored some Korean food and Daddy’s corn.

She was in a particularly silly mood this evening too.

All afternoon, she kept telling Mommy, “I want to ask Dada for a cookie.”  So when she did, Dada offered to buy her a cookie but she opted for a big box of berries instead.

She clutched the box of fruit all the way home tonight.  What a funny girl.

P.S. She also managed to go on this outing in underwear and without an accident.  Hooray!  It helps to have a kid-sized toilet and sink available to her at the mall.  She used them twice while we were there.  The family restroom is the best!

Friday Morning

IMG_0565

It’s Friday morning and time to go to school!  This would be her 5th day in a row and she’s ready!

IMG_0568

Unfortunately, when we got to school, she almost lost it.  She sat down next to some friends for breakfast and as I walked out she started to cry.  I gave her one last hug and reminded her that she had GG today.  She held onto him so tightly this morning and wasn’t ready to put him in Tia’s pocket just yet.  She stopped crying by the time I signed her in and as I spied through the back window on my way out, I could see her just sitting there furiously rubbing GG’s ears with her breakfast in front of her.  I thought the 5th day would be the easiest day but it wasn’t.

Early Morning

IMG_0490

Mommy and Daddy had to pick up Auntie’s car from the airport this morning so Yai and Ta came over at 6:30 this morning to hang out with Janie.  There was a Turkey Trot starting outside so they took a walk to cheer them on.

They waited by the statue for a bit and then went to take a closer look when the runners started to line up.

Unfortunately, the start involved police sirens that scared her.  So when that started, she insisted on being carried.  Poor Yai had to carry her all the way home.

Stroller Fun

IMG_9128

This afternoon at the park, the girls hung out together with their matching strollers.  Mirian sent me a few photos and Janie looked mad in all of them.  I texted her back and said “She looks so mad.”  A couple minutes later, Mirian replied “She look mad all day.”  Haha.  Here’s a video of them.  I think she’s not actually mad – just has a scowl on her face at rest…like her Dad. 🙂

Special Concert

IMG_9735

The library had a special concert outside at the park today.  Can you spot our little munchkin up in front?

IMG_9738

You would think that she didn’t enjoy the concert based on this mean scowl but it’s just her face.  Mirian said she liked the music and dancing.

Family Outing

IMG_7730

In the late morning, we walked down to the Ferry Plaza to meet up with Uncle Jason, Auntie Jia, and Ama.  Janie took a nice nap during our walk and stayed asleep for at least an hour.  When she woke up, she was extra-clingy to Daddy.

Once she was a little more awake, she was ready for some ice cream!!

IMG_7744

We later took everyone to one of her favorite playgrounds.  She went on teeter-totter with Auntie Jia and also went down the big slide today for the first time.

On the walk home, she held GG on her head while she drank her milk.

Del Monte Beach

IMG_6392

After dinner, we went to visit Mr. Ocean.  Janie was super excited and said “play sand too!”  Unfortunately, when we arrived, she had forgotten how loud the waves are and needed some extra time to warm up to it.

IMG_6394

Alice was super excited too but has been to the beach much more often than Janie.

IMG_6396

Eventually, she was able to walk on the sand with Ta and asked to go toward the ocean.

We got some nice photos of her with Ta and Yai.  She was relaxed enough to smile and cheese-it-up for the camera.

IMG_6413

We also managed to get a family photo taken too.  We don’t get many of these.

IMG_6419

We got a photo of the grandparents and their two grandkids.

 Alice loved giving Janie wet kisses.  Funny girl.

IMG_6434

What a fun evening at the beach.  I’m also glad Janie warmed up to Mr. Ocean.

silent treatment

IMG_6289

This morning I tried to sneak out before Janie woke up.  The door was too loud and she woke up as soon as I opened it.  She knew I was leaving for work and started to cry.  I went over to tell her that I had to go to work and she stopped crying, pointed to the pack n play, and said “BED!”  I put her in bed and she just rolled over and pouted as I left.  When I arrived at work, Daddy sent this picture and said “She’s giving me the silent treatment.”  Poor Janie.  Poor Daddy.
