Interlocking fingers

One day we found Elaine playing with her own fingers, it looks like she's praying, so daddy decided to help her a little more...有一天晚上我們看到以琳很專心的自己在玩她的手指,看起來好像是要禱告的樣子,所以以琳爸決定要幫以琳寶寶一點忙...

Elaine's New Toy 以琳的新玩具

Baby Elaine got some strong legs! She started to "stand" and "kick" all the time around 2 1/2 months. Since she likes to stand and kick so much, daddy and mommy decided to take this hand-me-down exersaucer out and let baby Elaine try it. Yep! She's loving it! (She even learned to turn around right away!) 以琳寶寶的腳腳可強壯的很呢!從兩個多月開始,以琳開始想要站,踢...坐都坐不安分.所以爸爸媽媽決定把這個玩具拿出來給以琳試試看.以琳一下子就會玩了,不但如此她馬上就知道怎麼轉圈喔!

Baby Elaine's First Thanksgiving 以琳寶寶的第一個感恩節


Baby Elaine got to play with cousin Michael and Andrew! These two gentlemen kindly showed baby Elaine how to play toys. 小以琳跟兩個哥哥一起玩! 這兩個小紳士還教以琳怎麼玩玩具呢!

Going to the Zoo!

As our anniversary weekend drawing to an end, Daddy decided to take mommy and baby Elaine to the zoo. Most of the time baby Elaine was more interested in looking at people than looking at the animals. But she really excited to see the elephants and the African Penguins, she laugh out loud and giggles when she sees them! Baby fell asleep at the end of the zoo trip (around the hippo part). Unfortunately we didn't get to see the lion cubs whose birthday were the same as baby Elaine's. Anyway, it was a great date for daddy and mommy ended with bubble tea. What an interesting experience for baby!


Up close and personal for baby Elaine

Hello Mommy! The sun's too bright!

Elaine in deep thinking..."what's that funny smell?"

At first mommy thought baby is praying...it turns out baby fell asleep!


Every time mommy goes to a zoo, giraffe is a must see!

Daddy and Mommy's 3rd Anniversary

This year we are staying in Denver, Daddy took some days off from work so he could spend some quality time with Mommy and baby Elaine. We walked around in the mall, got our rings engraved, also got baby Elaine a Christmas shirt. In the evening, Daddy took mommy and baby Elaine out to Cheesecake Factory for dinner. Baby Elaine was a very well-behaved "third-wheel"今年我們不去外州了,我們留在丹佛跟寶寶在一起.爸爸拿了幾天的休假陪寶寶也陪媽媽.我們今天去了百貨公司走走,把我們的戒指拿去刻字,順便幫寶寶買了件聖誕衣服.晚上爸爸帶我們出去吃飯,寶寶一整天都沒有哭哭喔!真是個合作的電燈泡!




Baby is more excited about the food than looking into our camera
食物和照相...以琳似乎對食物更有興趣些
Look at her checking out the food 看她直盯著食物看



Hm...let me choose a cheesecake for mommy 讓我幫媽媽選個甜點吧
