We decided to hold a small Chinese New Year celebration with Jenny and Andy at our place in the weekend. Our celebration was simple and low key, but rather eventful. It’s always nice to see them and their two tots. Richard can communicate with us in full sentences now while Keith is an avid crawler.… Read more…

We decided to host a small get-together with our usual buddies to kill our weekend in the cold winter. We prepared nine “authentic” Chinese dishes for dinner since most folks have only tried the nasty and greasy Americanized Chinese dishes in their lives.

The birthday theme was all about “Toy Story”: cake,… Read more…

We spent our weekend at Jenny and Andy’s place to help them to photograph Richard in a kangaroo suit. Richard is a big toddler now. He is able to address us as “Yi-Yi” and “Shu-Shu” (Aunt and Uncle in Mandarin). Richard can only move in two speeds: run and stop. When he runs, he will… Read more…
