Last weekend, with 85+ degree weather, the pool officially opened. Natalie and Tyler had fun shooting big uncle with their water guns.

Every afternoon, I pick the kids from school. Most of the time, I pick Tyler up first. Yesterday, while walking to the car from his classroom he says to me “You pick me up first because I’m cute huh?”

All the Kindergarten classes put on a Spring Performance on Friday. Each class sang their own song and all the K’s sang songs together.

Tyler got to skip school so he could go watch the performance too. He brought his dog China. Before the show even started, he started complaining about being hungry and of course, I forgot to bring snacks. It was 10:30am. Throughout the entire show which lasted a little over 30 minutes, he kept asking if the show was over yet and he kept saying he wanted a hot dog. So after the show, David took him to 7-11 and got a 1/4lb hot dog and he ate the whole thing.

Hi, my name is Natalie. Today was my school’s Open House day. I showed my parents stuff I’ve been learning at school and gave them a tour of my classroom. We also got to visit the 1st grade classrooms and got a preview of stuff I will be learning next year. We started by getting pizza at the MU (Multi-Use) room. For $2, we got up to 2 slices of pizza, a cookie, and a drink.

This was my tour guide hat that I made at school

This is an art project that I did

Here, I am writing the evening message with Da Da

I’m showing Mom and Dad the calendar

This afternoon, after naps and homework, the kids went for a bike ride. Destination –> the school playground. Natalie and Tyler brought their new Zhu Zhu pets that they got this weekend too.

For Natalie’s Spring Break, we invited Po Po and Gong Gong to San Jose to watch Natalie for the week. Toward the end of the week, we decided to go to Tahoe for the weekend since we’ve never been there and Natalie has been asking to see snow. It quickly became a big group trip adding in Big Uncle, Yee Po and family, Theresa, Uncle J and Tul, and a great auntie from Macau!

The house we rented was really nice! There were 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Natalie especially like the room with the bunk-beds.

At the top of the mountain, there was a spectacular view of Lake Tahoe

Also at the top of the mountain was food. As soon as we got up there, Tyler said he was hungry. So David went to buy him a hot dog. It was the most expensive hot dog (plain too!) we ever got. $10!

That afternoon we also drove over to the lake and everyone took a walk on the pier.

The kids had alot of fun playing in the snow

80+ degree weather is something we’ve been missing here. Finally we got some of that this weekend. Today we joined Uncle Chubber and Theresa on their Yelp adventure and checked out a place called Cafe San Jose. It was pretty good! We got to sit outside too, which was perfect with the sunny weather!

The kids shared some silver dollar pancakes

I got the spinach omelette. It was delicious!

Last night, Tyler was watching TV with me in my bed. During a commercial break, I rolled over and said to him “Let’s talk about how much we love each other.” He rolled over and faced me and said “ok!”

Tyler: I love you for one hundred thousand million days!

Me: I love you for one hundred thousand million gazillion gazillion gazillion days!

Tyler: Wow!

Then he rolls over and proceeds to pick his nose.

By the next commercial break, he was snoring.

I haven’t been feeling well and today while I was in bed resting, I asked Tyler to come take care of me. He said ok and sat next to me in my bed. I told him that hugs and kisses would make me feel better. So he would give them to me any time I asked. After a few minutes, he thought I fell asleep so he snuck away.

We had a a fun and quick weekend in LA last weekend. It was nice and warm in LA which was a nice break from the cold and rainy weather we’ve been having in San Jose.

Natalie had fun holding Kaiya. Little Kaiya.

We brought Po Po to Yogurtland.

The kids got to get ice cream from the ice cream truck.

At night, after eating dinner in San Gabriel, Uncle Way and Natalie picked up a cake for Po Po and we sang to her at home. Each of the kids took turns blowing out the candle so we had to sing 3 times.
