Vancouver Part 1

Last month, we went on vacation to Vancouver! Did you know that I had to get a passport to go to Vancouver, and that you have to make an appointment to get your passport months in advance, and that I also had to stay still to get my passport picture taken?

Ok anyways, I flew on a plane for 2 hours! And because our flight got delayed, I had already taken my nap and was nice and hyper! Have you ever been on a flight where there’s a baby who’s always yelling and crying and moving and kicking the seat of the person in front? I haven’t!

Once we got to Vancouver, we went straight to Mommy’s second favorite Laksa restaurant, Laksa King! As soon as we got in, I barfed all over Mommy! And then over the next hour I barfed four more times, mostly all over Mommy again! Luckily, our hotel room had a laundry machine, and the next day I was ok. Here are some pics from our first day. Sorry, no barf pics.

Run run run! This is my Rocky workout outfit. After this run I ate a lot of snacks. Oh man I love snacks even more than running.

Happy Hollow!

A few weeks ago, I went to Happy Hollow in San Jose! I got to ride on a really slow moving train, after waiting in line for like 9 hours (actually 25 minutes). I’m the worst at waiting in line. Mommy and Daddy decided that Disneyland is a terrible idea, and I have no idea what Disneyland is, but if I have to wait in lines it sounds like a bad bad place.

Lunch time with Auntie Connie and Uncle John and Hazel! Everyone kept talking about Lee's and sandwiches and laughing, but I didn't think it was funny.

I prefer to sit in Mommy's lap. Second would be Nainai... or Boba. Daddy is around fifth, Auntie Connie is somewhere between the teens and whatever rank a random stranger is. She's growing on me though, slowly.

Goats... are kinda scary, but not as scary as dogs. Over time I have developed a greater and greater, healthy yet slightly ridiculous fear of all animals.

Food Trucks!

What’s better than food? Food in a park!

Foster City has food trucks every Wednesday. Sometimes we go there for dinner. It's at a park. I love food! And parks!

I loooove food!

Eating time is the best time! Daycare says that I always want to eat whenever I see someone else eating. Mommy and Daddy verified that this is true. Fruit and Cheerios are my favorite. Oh and rice. And noodles. Oh and one time, Mommy gave me some donut. That was the best. Oh and ice cream! And Costco samples! Costco samples are the best!!! But then when Mommy buys 10 pounds of the sample food I don’t like it so much.

This is me in my eating chair. I like to climb it to get into my seat. Mommy and Daddy have told me not to climb it if they're not there, because the chair can fall over. I've gotten multiple time outs because of this. I continue to climb it when they're not there.

I love Cheerios! I can fit about 14 in my mouth at once. Sometimes I like to put them on my nose.

The ZOO!

My first trip to the zoo was… eh it was alright. San Francisco is so cold even in the summer! I saw lots of real animals for the first time that I’ve only seen in my books! You’d think that’d be exciting, but the book versions are way better.

I had mixed feelings about the merry-go-round. I was scared at first... but then I loved it! Except I would only sit carriage seats. Those horseys were too scary.

May activities

This May (yea I know, this is super late), we did lots of fun things. We got a membership at this place in San Mateo called Curiodyssey that has animals and toys and science stuff, and most of it is boring, except for the foam blowing machine! I also got to go to the beach for the first time, and… well I spent lots of time at home buckling myself into my eating chair. I became a pro, but I’m totally over it now.

This bridge and water were way more interesting than all the animals

We went to this beach place which is a giant sandbox. I didn't like the water so much, but pouring sand everywhere is super fun.

Outdoor fun

I love weekends because I get to go play outside with Mommy and Daddy! Our usual routine is: drive somewhere far at around 11am so I fall asleep, eat lunch, get boba, watch Mommy and Daddy drink boba without giving me any, then do fun things!

My first professional photos

Over the past several months, I’ve heard Mommy and Daddy talking about taking family photos before I get over my peak cuteness. I don’t know when they think that will be, but I look at myself in the mirror every day, and every day I look even better! Unless I’m having a bad hair day. Finally about a month ago, we went to the San Francisco Botanical Gardens to take pictures! On photo day, I decided to be super good and cooperative because I gotta look good in the photos, you know? Here are a few of the photos!
