Watch us grow!
Peanut had a special Mother’s Day tea event at school this afternoon. Each child hand-delivered a card and flower to each of their mommies.
They also sang a song for everyone.
Here is Peanut performing it one more time at home.
The card was pretty funny.
Thanks, Peanut!!

Happy 7th Birthday, Baby Girl! We love you so much and continue to be amazed by you.
After the cousin sleep-over, all the kids were up early the next morning. Mama went to work and Janie went to school but Peanut got to stay home with the rest of the family.
The boys actually took a nap too!
Afterschool, we all went to Jamba Juice and Daiso.
Later in the evening, the kids snacked on roasted broccoli while Mama went out to pick up dinner for the family. What a fun day!
Peanut’s day at school was filled with activity. The morning started with their weekly walk to the lagoon. How cute are they?!
They all sat on the steps nearby to watch the ducks and took a class photo too. Our crazy Peanut is on the top row being…well, crazy.
Later that day, Miss Lupita read “Harold and the Purple Crayon” to the class.
Here’s his whole class with masks on.
It’s our last morning with Yai before she flies back to Cerritos today! It’s been fun having her with us for the past 10 days.
Lately, Peanut has been super interested in writing, drawing, and coloring. He insisted on writing out his own birthday card for their neighborhood friend Ellie. Mama spelled out the words and he wrote the letters all by himself!
At dinner, he worked really hard on a color-by-letter picture.
At the end of the night, he drew a car (his is upside-down) and wrote his name on the new white boards they received over the weekend.
The kids went to see Uncle Randy again for their cleaning. Both did great. Peanut had x-rays taken and Janie got a sealant on her grown-up molars.
Afterward, we met up with Sophie and Avia for lunch! These kids are so wacky.
Peanut posed in his kung fu stance before making the jump off the step.
