9. both grandmas and grandpas spoil us. (excellent)

10. auntie dorcas buys us whatever we want. (excellent)

preparing for christmas

well, like most kids out there under 2, we have no idea what christmas is all about. in fact, all we know is that we go shopping a whole lot. well, not that much more than usual. but we do go to some fun places. last week we ended up in folsom and that was fun. we weren't suppose to be out there that long, but... heh, heh, heh, we gave nathan a run for his money. but that another story. he looks so much like his baba. don't you think?



anyhow, he was trying to prevent us from getting into his territory... ha ha.. like that would really work. duh... there's two of us and only one of him. plus, his baba and mommy were stopping him every time he tried to take us down. oh well. it was fun playing with toys that weren't ours.

from looking at this picture below, you'd think we like playing in a box. but if you look at the next one, i'd think you'd agree with us that we like making messes for mommy and daddy to clean up even more.



yep! that's us! we threw everything mommy packed away in that box and decided to play in the box instead. aren't we so creative? mommy and daddy should consider themselves lucky that we don't require fancy and expensive toys.



well, there's 2 days left till christmas! hope you finished all your shopping cause the traffic out there going to the malls are crazy. merry christmas and happy new year if i don't see you till the new year!

it's almost xmas!

wowwee! it's almost christmas! not like i know what that means. but mommy and daddy are always talking about going here and there. SO MUCH FUN! i love going shopping and seeing things and pulling tags and clothes and grabbing toys and everything. they don't always buy us stuff, but... that's okay. lately, i love to play with purses and wallets. sister likes to play with mommy's hair brush. she thinks she's pretty. whatever that means. also, we love to eat. yum! all the time! ever since our trip to las vegas and san diego, we've been eating new things all the time. sure, we get in our snow peas, green peas, and broccoli, but we also love grapes, strawberries, and most importantly, shrimp and crab. yeah, we have expensive tastes. what's new though? i mean, ever since we were born, we've had bird's nest with rice soup and shark fin soup and all that. i think mommy's happy because we like to eat so much. she always says that now she has someone to eat all these foods with her. wonder why daddy doesn't like this stuff? oh well. more for me.

oh, here's a link to our pictures from our vegas trip.
