Happy Birthday to me! I’m 2!!
My birthday was on a Friday this year. My parents got lazy and didn’t have a big party for me, just family and close friends. Still, I got some cool gifts and got to eat turkey legs so I’m happy. (And from the slim number of pictures, you can see they were even too busy to take pictures and video!! Sheesh!)

Gardening with Kong Kong
Ah-ma and Kong Kong wanted to pretty up Uncle Jon and Auntie Karen’s front yard with flowers. I felt like they needed my help so I changed into my overalls and headed to their house to offer my expertise.
Lots of stinky dirt. What fun!
Afterward, we went out to eat because I love to eat even more than I love to garden (but maybe no more than I like to get dirty). Anyway, we went to a new hot pot restaurant that had a huge pot split in half — one side with spicy broth, the other was not so spicy. We ordered a ton of meats and vegetables and just ate and ate and ate.
And then we walked around the corner to get yogurt. I fell off a chair. Ouch.

Happy 15-month birthday to me! Let’s eat soup!
I’m not a baby anymore!
I’m a toddler, so don’t give me no stinking baby food!

My very first birthday party
The day of my big party finally arrived. I was lots of fun! We had lots of guest and lots of food!
Texas Grandma baked two different kinds of birthday cake. She also made the Texas portion of the birthday spread: brisket, pork and beans and potato salad (which we forgot to put out!). California Grandma made Malaysian food: Won-tons, sticky-rice and everyone’s favorite satay with yummy satay sauce. Unkie Jon cooked the satay that Ah-ma prepared. Mommy made coconut shrimp. And they had the nerve to try to feed me baby food! I’m so over that phase.
Friends of all ages stopped by. My long-time friend Mia Juliet stopped by from Texas. She brought her parents and her grandma. My other long-time friend and confidant, Hannah, also came by. She gave me lots of tips on being the guest of honor. Some noobs to the baby-scene also showed up. Bill and Jennifer brought Charlotte (circa 5 months old). Roxanne brought Sam (10 weeks old).
I wore a special princess hat and a special princess sash. A girl could get used to this. Oh, and did I mention presents!! Yes, indeed. There were presents for little ol’ one-year-old me. Thanks kith and kin!!

I am 1-year old today!
I am one years old today! This is not my official birthday party, but a small gathering of the immediate genotypes. We traveled down to Ah-ma and Kong Kong’s house with Texas Grandparents in tow. I opened some birthday presents and had a special cupcake. My friend Mia sent me Wee Wedgets, a fun stacking toy for wee folks like me. I was a little confused at first, and though they were bracelets and hats. I also got a blow-up bouncy horse and an art desk from Texas Grandparents. Just for fun, me and daddy played with the box the art desk came in. California Grandparents got me a light up rolling ball and some clothes.Â
