First Trip to Houston!!

Last weekend, Aaron and I went to Houston for A-ma's birthday! It was Aaron's first trip to Mom and Dad's hometown. This was also Aaron's first time to be away from Dad. Since then, he has been very clingy and cuddly (no complaints here!).

Dad is sad to leave Aaron...

Aaron discovers fun new toys in Houston...

... and promptly decides to eat them!

Another trip to the zoo! This time the Houston Zoo with the Bakers and Baldwins!

Aaron in Elliott's stroller. Thank you Elliott (and Ruby a-yi) for lending

it to us for the weekend! It definitely came in handy. :)

Abby jie-jie gives Rosa a-yi a kiss! :) So sweet!

The Bakers!! :)

On Saturday, we had a play date at the Baldwins! We had so much fun!

Adorable and chubby Sophia... the sweetest, most chill baby ever!

Aaron and Elliot di-di, who is not as big as he looks in this pic!

We had so much fun seeing everyone and meeting all the new babies/kids :)

Hope to see everyone again soon!!!

Aaron - 11 months!

Brookfield Zoo!

Yesterday was a gorgeous day and we went to Brookfield Zoo! First time for all of us... and we loved it. It's such an amazing zoo and we can't wait to go there again!

Aaron's preferred method of travel.

Aaron was a little frightened of the giant kangaroo...

... but he loves the fake giraffe!

There were all sorts of little exhibits and paths and things to read about the animals!

Aaron says hi to the grizzly. We came during meal time.

"Who's there??"

"Oh, it's just you!"

Tummy tickle!

The only time Aaron sat in his stroller was as we were leaving the zoo. :P

Pooped!

Back to the OC

We returned to Orange County for a quick trip last week! Aaron had a great time playing with everyone although it did get a BIT warm... :) We actually forgot our camera (along with many other things...) so thanks to Nainai, Yima and Liza for taking these pics. :) Thanks everyone for coming to see us and thanks again to Yigong and Yima for being such gracious hosts. We have so much fun every time we see you both. Hopefully we can see everyone again soon...

Aaron is exhausted after a morning walk with Nainai.

Pooped.

Aaron and Nainai.

"I love California!"

"But it's a little warm... can you guys let me back in?"

"Where is everybody?"

"Mom? Dad?"

Aaron poses for Auntie Liza.

Mom begrudgingly poses with Aaron in painting gear. :P

Aaron and Auntie Liza! Thanks for the pics Liza! It was great to see you :)

With Auntie Nancy!

"Thanks Auntie Nancy for taking time out to play with me! I had so much fun!"

Aaron playing in the morning with Daddy and Yima, while Mommy sleeps!

"Hope you weren't too late for work Yima! But I had so much fun playing with you!!"
