It was my last day at Parenting the 2 years old class with Mrs. Harris at Griffith Adult School (Torrance Adult School). I had missed a few classes due to my vacation and also my cold. And there were several other Monday holidays as well. Anyway, I was glad that I attended this last class as I was able to play with watercolor for the very first time.
We were actually supposed to be painting Easter eggs on paper, but instead Mommy got me some blank papers and let me be creative. Here are my watercolor pieces.

Uncle Bojan brought us to California Adventure. It was really crowded but that day was mah-mah's birthday and she could get in for free. But anyway, yeh-yeh ended up didn't go with us, just Mommy, Daddy, me, mah-mah, ah-gee and Uncle Bojan.
We left home around 2:15pm. We parked our car on the roof top of the parking structure. It has been a while since I went to Disneyland. I still remember Mommy and Daddy used to bring me there like every week when they had the annual passes last year.
I still remember the tram we have to take to the entrance of the park. The first ride I requested was Monsters Inc. We went the the wait was 30 minutes. We all lined up and waited. I patiently waited for the ride. Unfortunately, after we waited in line for almost 30 minutes, the ride stopped working. We were almost at there in front of the line. The operators said the ride might have broken down and might not be back on for the rest of the day but told us to go back in 30 minutes to check it out. Man ... that was so disappointing.
But we had no choice. So I decided to go visit my second favorite ride - the Tortilla Factory. We still had to wait but only for 10 minutes. I showed mah-mah the free tortilla they were giving out. Yummy!
Basically after that, we just walked around the park. I wasn't satisfied not be able to be on the Monsters Inc. ride so we went back again before we left the park. It was working! The thing was we had to line up again and waited for the 30 minutes AGAIN. We took some pictures while waiting in line.
I was happy after the ride. It was still the same, saw the helicopters. YES! Afterwards, we went to take picture next to WALL-E.
Then we left the park. It was almost 5:30pm when we left. Before we went home, we had dinner at Sam Woo Restaurant in Cerritos. I was hungry and ate two bowls of rice. After a good meal and a tired day at the park, I napped in the car for 5 minutes before we got home.
Thank you uncle Bojan for taking us all to California Adventure. Next time if I feel like going again I will ask my Mommy to give you a call. :)

This year, I had my birthday cake on Saturday 2/28/09. My actual birthday will be tomorrow, Tuesday 3/3/09. We had the birthday cake on Saturday so my ah-gee could come over to sing the birthday song with us. She works a lot, even on weekends and fortunately for us, she was not at work last Saturday.
Mommy ordered a Cars cake for me. This is a 1/4 sheet chocolate cake with buttercream icing from Torrance Bakery ($40).
We came back from Monterey Park around 1pm and on the way back, I was napping in the car. We went to pick up the cake before we drove home since I was still sleeping. When we got home, I woke up. Mommy phoned my grandparents and ah-gee to come over.
Mah-mah was here first. I was happy to see her. We were taking pictures when my ah-gee and yeh-yeh came in to join us. I wasn't sure why, I was not happy to see them and I started crying. Mommy took me inside my bedroom to talk to me and then I was feeling OK, not the best. We continued with some pictures but I didn't give a good smile to most of them. At least I wasn't crying ... yet!
Then they started to sing me the birthday song. Before they ended the song, I CRIED! (see picture for proof)
I didn't even want to cut the cake, so my Mommy did it for me.
Oh well, at least I remember how much I enjoyed eating the cake afterwards. No more crying.
Mommy, Daddy and I went to Maui for 5 days 4 nights this past weekend. I had so much fun at the beach. They took me to the beach behind the resort every evening. I enjoyed the hotel room, the rental car, the food and the beach and ocean too. Just like Mommy, I wish the vacation would never come to an end.
Now I even know how to spell M-A-U-I ... MAUI!

* Beh-beh refers to myself
One time Mommy slept beside me and I was laughing happily then she said I was too noisy because I was launghing and she couldn't sleep. The next evening when bedtime came I say:
Mommy fun gau, Beh-beh keh-keh-keh-keh.
English - Mommy sleeps, I go keh-keh-keh-keh (laughing).
Mommy asked my opinion on her new top. I said, "GOOD!" while giving her a thumbs up sign.
If I want someone to leave my home, I say to them, "BYE-BYE!" I hope they understand the hidden meaning behind it.
If I want someone to stop singing/talking, I hold my palm up in front of their faces and say to them, "OFF!" as if I am turning 'off' their volume you know?

Brandon knows how to read two of the books we regularly read together. He doesn't read it words by words, it is more like memorizing the page and recite it again to us. The books he reads by himself are:
1. The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle
2. Dr. Seuss ABC
