First Official Haircut

We took Hayley for her first official haircut outside of our home at Snip-its. Her hair was getting a little shaggy and needed some good trimming. She did great and came out with a neat hairdo.

Color Coordination

Ethan was busy playing while I was working in the office and when he called me to see what he has done, I was impressed by what he has put together. It's really true that all toys come in many colors! I guess we're missing some purple toys....

School Pictures

We just got Ethan's school pictures back and this time he is smiling a little bit more naturally. He has definitely grown to be a boy now. No more baby face. Time is really flying by quickly and I wish I can slow it down a little....

Happy Halloween!

This Halloween was a busy one. We went to a neighborhood Fall Festival and the kids participated in the costume contest. We also attended a block party which was so well put together - they had pumpkim contest, apple bopping, hay ride, face painting and lots of food. The kids enjoyed themselves. The best part was the trick or treating in our neighborhood. Ethan had a blast while Hayley just enjoyed her ride in her stroller. Ethan was dressed as a wizard again - 3 years straight. I promise next year he will be different. Hayley was a cute supergirl. Here are some highlights from the Halloween weekend.

11 Years and Counting....

Lee and I celebrated our 11th year anniversary this year with a 3-hour spa treatment of facial, massage, body scrub and wrap. That was much needed and we enjoyed it very much. Then we had a nice dinner at Fleming's. It's been a long time since we had a nice dinner out without the chaos!


We also enjoyed our weekend with the kids at the Mother Nature's Farm's pumpkin patch.

Fall Break Road Trip

Ethan had a week off for Fall Break, so we decided to take a road trip to LA. We met up with the Chau family and had a great time. We visited many places - The Farmer's Market, Little Tokyo, Disneyland, The Getty Villa, The LA Zoo, Travel Town Museum and the beach. The kids did very well and we all had a great time! It was tiring, but a lot of fun.

Hayley is 18 Months Old!

Another milestone...Hayley is starting to look like a little girl instead of a baby. She made it to the 20lb mark and weighed in at 20.4lbs (3-10%) and measured 31 inches (25-50%). She is off the bottle and is well on her way to yummie foods. She loves to eat and would try anything. She also likes to eat on her own instead of being fed, but it gets rather messy. She also started her first music class (Kindermusik) at the City of Chandler and is enjoying it so far.
