Girl's Night

Vicki, Hayley, Me, Deb

A much needed Mommy-Night-Out for us! We went to a Mexican restaurant and then to a local bar. Talked and laughed a lot. Good times, so I think this will be a monthly thing :).

Vicki is from England and knows the area I grew up (when I lived there). Her husband is in the Navy and lived in Washington State-- so random! What a small world.

CNY Highlights

Charlotte and Isabelle

Charlie, Olivia, and Esme

We had a week off for CNY (Chinese New Year) and a friend of ours organized play dates for every morning. Thank goodness! It was a lot of fun re-connecting with families we haven't seen in awhile.

She's DONE.

It was a "Doe-wa" (as Isabelle would say) birthday party. It was quick and easy, but fun. Not much you can do with a bunch of toddlers, except keeping them from not sharing toys.

Liam and another boy

We work with Liam's parents at ISB

Isabelle's school had a little party for Chinese New Year. My little baby was sill feeling under the weather, which can be seen in these photos... She's not quite her happy, smily self... :( Nonetheless, she did enjoy the music part!

Isabelle's School Birthday Party

Isabelle shared some cupcakes that I made with her class-mates and they sang her "happy birthday" in both English and Chinese. These are some pictures the teacher gave me.
