Happy Birthday JAMES! Today is my first time at a Birthday Party. My buddy, James is turning ONE and it’s so exciting to celebrate the day with all my buddies and friend at the park. Below are some pictures of us at the party. James gave everyone a beach towel as a present and it was so nice of him. I really like the stream at that park and hope I can return there soon.

Today I turn 9 Months. Nine months is an exciting milestone. I have learned how to do many things over the past couple months, it seems to come in leaps and bounds. Mom and dad helped me put together a photo-journal so I may share my journey through the images and captions that were put together below. This past month I have been able to pull myself up to a standing position and walk around by holding on to things. It’s really exciting to explore the world from this height. I am a pretty fast crawler and like to play tag with who ever likes to chase me. Being chased makes me laugh out loud as I crawl through the house. I really like walking around the living room table and usually do about 20 laps a day. Last month I learned how to sign back to mom which makes her really happy. Though I have yet learned to talk, I can now sign ‘milk’ and ‘bye-bye’. Mom can’t wait till I learn some of the other ones she has been teaching me. My Aunt Thu taught me how to give kisses by showing me

One of my favorite Uncles got married today to a beautiful sweet Ms. Kathryn. They make a very cute and loving couple. Thank you so much for having me as a guest at your wedding. I was even given my own customize seating card. We danced and played with the glow in the dark sticks all night. I partied till I dropped and just snooze in the stroller. Berkeley is a beautiful campus, despite all the tree huggers who were living in the trees. I met many of parents' friends and even Abigail. Abigail was mom's flower girl at her wedding and she looks so big and grown up at Uncle Matt's wedding.

This is the view from my hotel crib. I really like sitting on the sill and looking down. It’s really beautiful, but I can never seem to touch what I am looking at. It’s like dad’s plasma, but better.    

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear daddy, Happy Birthday to you. I am really happy I was able to celebrate your birthday with you this year Daddy. I wish I will be able to share many many more Birthdays with you. I hope this year I will be able to give you lots of laughters, giggles, and AWE moments.  

I went to Seattle for the weekend to celebrate my Uncle Scott and Aunt Carol’s wedding. It was a very special event. Aunt Carol made everything from her wedding dress, the bridesmaids’ dresses, to all the jewerly. It was a beautiful wedding, I rolled in my aunt and uncle’s limo bus and enjoyed a great tour of Seattle. Uncle Scott had bamboos from his garden as their centerpieces and the food was really yummy. I really liked the mashed potatos.

We flew up today to attend Uncle Scott and Aunt Carol’s wedding. We arrived at the rehearsal dinner where I was given my very own “Seattle Pig”, rolled a big Heineken beer keg around, and was later kicked out of the bar. They said I had to be at least 21 years old or else I can’t sit in the bar area. Poor Grandma had to walk me around while mom and dad visit with all the guests.
