My First Toyota FJ Cruiser

The week that I was sick with a bit of pneumonia back in February, my daddio surprised me with my very first pink and purple convertible Toyota FJ Cruiser! My family loves Toyota despite the recalls they have.


What a good surprise!!


Here's my pink and purple princess Toyota FJ Cruiser!

Here are some videos of me sitting in my FJ. Just click on the play buttons.

My First Full Haircut

I had my first full haircut on Saturday, Jan. 30, 2010!!! This time I had both my bangs and the back side cut by mommy's hairstylist, Beth. I wanted to cut my hair before leaving for San Diego for Chinese New Year. Unfortunately, we had to cancel our trip a day before leaving for San Diego because I wasn't fully recovered from a little bit of pneumonia in my right lung :-(

Daddy screwed up big time in videotaping my first full haircut!! ARGGGGGH! HE TURNED THE CAMERA THE WRONG WAY IN ALL THE VIDEOS OF MY FIRST FULL HAIRCUT! In addition to that, each video is on a few seconds. Oh come on, keep the camera rolling for at least more than 30 seconds because I'm super cute. I only have two pictures of my haircut and they're both blurry! Good job again daddy for screwing up!

Christmas 2009 Videos

Christmas lighting event in our house was very exciting for me!

Here's me opening my biggest Christmas present.

The huge stocking that I'm digging into was given to mommy by St. Joseph Hospital when I was born. I was actually small enough for me to take a photo with me in it in one of the 2008 posts.

Rip it!!!

Christmas 2009

Our Christmas tree. I wonder why mommy hung most of the ornaments so high up???


My super big present.


Daddy's present from Aunt Holly.

I had lots of stocking stuffers from my parents.


I received an artist easel for Christmas from my parents.




Of course, I have to help daddy with putting my easel together.

Birthday Videos At Chuck E Cheese's

Here are some videos of my birthday party at Chuck E Cheese's in San Diego.

Here's me dancing.

I've decided to be nice by sharing my Chuck E Cheese's medal with mommy.

Birthday Party At Chuck E Cheese's

We celebrated my second birthday at a Chuck E Cheese's in San Diego on Dec. 20th. It was my first time ever to go to Chuck E Cheese's! Mommy was afraid that I would be overwhelmed by the large crowd of people and Chuck E himself. I proved mommy wrong! I love Chuck E Cheese's and we're going back to use up my remaining tokens.


My Elmo ice cream birthday cake.

All birthday stars get a Chuck E Cheese's medallion. I LOVE MINE!


What was mommy doing? Silly mommy.

To high five or not to high five Chuck E, that was the question!

Paw-paw (Chinese for maternal grandma) came to my party. What an honor to have her there.

Here's me giving paw-paw some L-O-V-E.

My Second Dentist Appointment

I posted both pictures and videos of my second dentist appointment on Dec. 16, 2009.

I didn't cry as much as I did at my first dentist appointment. I got my teeth cleaned and checked. My dentist applied a thin layer of fluoride on my teeth after getting rid of all the BIG BOOGERS in my teeth. She said that my teeth are nicely spaced apart and that I have only a couple of molars left to go. My parents are excited about that because they won't have to put up with my painful gums in the middle of the night!


I looked cool in sunglasses while getting my teeth cleaned and checked :-)


Daddy was the bad guy because he held me down just so my dentist can clean and check my teeth.


Here's my dentist checking my teeth to make sure that I have no cavities. She said that my parents did a GREAT JOB of making me brush my teeth.

Video: I didn't cry at the beginning of the second visit because mommy told me that my dentist is a booger cleaner and that she would get rid of all my boogers in my mouth!!! :-)

Video: I got my teeth flossed and my dentist found a BIG BOOGER in between my teeth. Wooo-hoooo!!

Chopsticks In Training!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE!!! HUGS AND KISSES FROM YOUR ONE AND ONLY TESLA ;-)

My goal for 2010 is to be able to hold chopsticks like my Chinese relatives! I was exposed to holding chopsticks back in June 2009 at a Japanese restaurant called Sachiko. I became really good at holding chopsticks just a few days before I turned two.


June 5, 2009 ~ We had lunch at Sachiko. I had Udon noodles and my parents had sushi.


June 5, 2009 ~ Arrrgggggghhhhh, it's so hard to use chopsticks to get my noodles.


Dec. 3, 2009 ~ Watch me pick up noodles a couple times. I love instant noodles and my parents love Korean spicy noodles from Costco.


Dec. 3, 2009 ~ Another video of me using chopsticks.
