Watch us grow!
Janie is heading to Southern California for the weekend. Uncle Jason and Auntie Jia came over in the morning to hang out for a bit.
Both Daddy and Uncle Jason had to work. You can see Uncle Jason taking a work call.
At noon, they packed up the car and started driving and they stopped for lunch.
Here are some pictures that Auntie Jia has been sending to Mommy while she was at work.
Dinner break!
They arrived in Buena Park by 10:15 pm. Phew! Long day.
Auntie Jia and Uncle Jason have moved to a bigger place in Redwood City.
She had a great time playing with them.
Auntie Jia bought a cool easel from IKEA and Janie tested it out for her.
She was so proud of her drawings.
She also got to try some habanero salsa with the chips that came to our dinner table.
Wow, her tolerance for spicy foods is impressive.
Here she is doodling while we waited for the food to arrive.
Uncle Jason and Auntie Jia came over this weekend. She enjoyed lounging in Uncle Jason’s lap. Yes, she really did enjoy it despite the mean look she’s giving me while I was snapping this photo.
She also enjoyed making faces with Auntie Jia…as usual.
Janie went out to watch another race but we had to trek all the way out to Marina Green today for our grandstand seats.
The morning started with a ride on Daddy’s back and on the special train to Fisherman’s Wharf.
By the time we arrived at the venue, she fell asleep. So, she slept through most of the race.
She woke up in time to see the water from the grandstands but that was about it.
No afternoon is complete without a big snack. Baby Duck is having edamame.
It was a gorgeous day in the Marina.
It was also super windy. In face, it was so windy that they canceled the second race.
Janie couldn’t get enough of the curbs.
She also enjoyed lounging on the Adirondack chair nearby.
When it was time to go home, we rode the Chinatown bus and Janie had a luxo ride on Daddy’s back.
Happy July 4th!! Janie spent the day at Uncle Jason and Auntie Jia’s house.
She had fun playing with Auntie Jia’s phone. Lucky girl.
Here she is teasing Koa with Mommy’s shirt.
Silly girl.
We had dinner with Uncle Jason tonight while Auntie Jia was away in Michigan.
Here she is walking back to the apartment with Uncle and Daddy.
Janie had a good time playing while Uncle Jason had an interesting babysitting style…very similar to Daddy. 
“There there, baby. Go to sleep now.”
Auntie Jia and Uncle Jason were volunteering at the festival in Foster City today so we went to check it out. Janie had a fun time walking around and smiling at all the people.
Janie loves seeing her auntie and uncle too!!
During Janie’s nap today, Daddy assembled her new trike. Thanks to Uncle Victor and Auntie Susie, she now has a new ride that will grow with her.
Here she is trying it out as soon as she woke up. That’s why her hair is such a mess. It looked like it was a hit with her.
This afternoon we tried to take the tricycle for a ride at a park but it was a bust. Fortunately, we had a 15-minute wait for dinner so we took her for a spin. What fun!!
Weeeeee!!
She even “raced” Auntie Jia back to the restaurant.
As if two parties wasn’t enough, Janie had one more birthday party today with her Bay Area friends and family. So many of her little friends came to celebrate!
Second cousins Theo and Sadie came up all the way from San Jose.
She had her afternoon snack with buddy Keenan and shared her sweet potato with him.
The cheeksters shared some puffs before going back to playing.
Jack helped Janie blow out her birthday candle.
Janie thoroughly enjoyed her cupcake!
OH BOY!
What a fun mess she made!!
She had fun with all her uncles and aunties. Uncle Ryan is funny.
Aw…so sweet. She gave a sideways huggy hug to Auntie Stephanie.
Buddy Rowan made an appearance and seemed to enjoy the cake too.
Zoe brought her folks, Uncle Jimmy and Auntie Eleen, to the party.
Uncle Jason and Auntie Jia also stopped by at the end of the party.
Look at all the presents she received today. What a lucky girl.
Thanks to everyone for celebrating with us!
We went out to dinner with Uncle Jason, Auntie Jia, and The Jangs. Uncle Jason tried to give her a serious look but it’s hard not to smile at this ball of cuteness.
