morning at home

OK, so we didn’t do all the things we had planned but Janie still had lots of fun.

Uncle Johnny and Alice came over this morning and we all had breakfast together. Janie also did a much better job sharing toys with Alice today.

Then she went outside to ride one of the tricycles that Uncle Pish handed down to our family.

It’s fun to have so much sidewalk to explore and ride.

Then Mommy took a turn and we took some photos to recreate an old photo of Yai and Mommy.

Janie also practiced walking on a curb all by herself at the school parking lot.

Daddy and Mommy made a big turkey dinner and Yai brought up a Honeybaked ham.

Janie loved the ham and turkey and also had lots of mashed potato, cranberry sauce, and sweet potato.

We also chatted with Cousin Alice on FaceTime!  They had already eaten dinner but we enjoyed their company anyway.

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.

Morning with the Grandparents

IMG_8090

This morning, Janie went on lots of outings with Yai and Ta.  Mommy and Daddy weren’t coming back until after lunch.

IMG_8098

First stop was the mall.  They like to walk Cerritos Mall before it opens.

IMG_8097

She visited the pet store where Alice likes to browse the puppy aisle.

IMG_8092

They have riding toys there too!
IMG_8094The next stop was McDonald’s, Yai and Ta’s usual hangout.

IMG_8095

She got some hotcakes and eggs for breakfast.  What a treat!

Then she used a napkin to change Big GG’s diaper.

By the time Mommy and Daddy were home, it was time for a nap and she went out so quickly.  It must have been a fun-filled morning.
