Daddy is super late with posting. Tomorrow is Meimei’s birthday and he just got around to helping me post this for my birthday. It must be because he’s busy watching us because we have no school because of the canola virus. Anyways, I turned 5 on January 14! I got to eat a hot dog for lunch and In-n-out for dinner! For my birthday party we went to Pump it up and I got to eat a donut instead of cake!

A couple days later, I learned to ride a bike!!!
Meimei’s scary face is super funny.

After our first time ice skating at Rockefeller Center, we wanted to go again, and we actually have a ice skating rink super close to home! So Mommy and Daddy brought us and we are super good now! Well, we can walk on the ice now instead of hanging on to Mommy and Daddy.
Then when we were in Socal, Auntie Melinda wanted to go bowling so we got to go too! We are super strong and can carry 6 pound balls by ourselves, but we can’t throw them down the lane. We just put it on the ramp thing. Meimei does a goofy walk when she bowls and she gets super sad when she doesn’t get a lot of pins.
This year Daddy wanted to save money on pictures so we went to a park and he took pictures on a tripod thing with a stuffed animal and we looked at the stuffed animal sometimes and then he pressed a button and we got tons of pictures of Daddy pressing the button. We got some good pictures too. Mommy and Daddy had to do lots of funny things and Kayli did funny things too. We also got lots of snacks. A LOT.

On the last couple of days, our Aunties and Uncle went somewhere else so it was just our family and Nainai. We went to Times Square and did some eating and shopping in the rain. Then somehow Mommy Daddy and Nainai managed to get us back to our hotel going through the subway and then pushing us on the stroller in the rain!

On Monday, we had to leave early to catch the ferry to the Statue buh of Liberty. Daddy met us there because he wanted to get some big cookies. The Statue buh of Liberty was fun. We got to run and climb a lot and we climbed to the top of the pedestal! We couldn’t go up to the crown because you have to be old. Then we ate lots of unhealthy food and snacks. After that we slept on the stroller the entire ferry ride back, and some guy drew really bad pictures of us while we were sleeping.

Sunday was Nainai’s 70th birthday!!! First we went to One World Trade Center, the tallest building in the US! We went all the way to the top, and then ate soooo many snacks! Then we ate Joe’s pizza. It was so good that we went back a few days later. After lunch, we don’t know what happened. I think Mommy and Daddy got boba while we napped… pretty much what they do everywhere we go.

On Saturday, we went to some place called Ess-a-Bagel where Daddy and Aunt Julie waited in line for an hour to get bagels! We don’t have to wait in line at Noah’s that long bak at home. Everybody then ate tons of bagels outside and were super full, so nobody wanted the snacks we got at Rockerfeller Center. Then we went ice skating. Aunt Julie fell down twice but she was ok. We hung onto Mommy and Daddy for 90 minutes and made them super tired like always.

We arrived in New York after a super long plane ride and then we had to do more sitting on a subway. We also got lost, and had to bring luggage up and down stairs a lot. Actually the adults did that. We just did crazy things to make them nervous. Aunt Julie is strong. Good thing Nainai and Aunt Julie were there to keep us safe and entertained!

I love to sing. Sometimes after Mommy and Daddy leaves, I sing for an hour in bed. At full volume. Sorry Kayli. Here is one of my favorite songs!
