School Days

I am now in school...well, at least for a little while. Mommy and I have been taking a few classes through Saddleback School District. I really like school! We go for an hour every Tuesday and Thursday. On Tuesday we take the 'Jumpin Jack's and Jill's' class and on Thursday we take the 'Tunes and Tales' class. Both involved music, story time, and lots and lots of fun!!! I love playing with all the ninos. I am not quite ready to go to school full time all by myself, but I am enjoying my school now with Mommy.

Lake Shrine

Today, Grandma, Joce, Mommy, and I went to see Lake Shrine. It was a nice cool day and we enjoyed the beautiful scenery. I love my adventures with Mommy. I wonder where we'll go next.

Happy 4th of July 2012

I enjoyed 4th of July today. I actually stayed up this year and watched all the fireworks and got to light some of my own. I had just a great day playing with my cousins as well. I wish it was 4th of July every day.

About Mommy & Daddy

Mommy and Daddy met on Nov 22, 2002. Mommy had just moved back to Southern California from San Francisco and was working in Irvine. Daddy was living and working in Newport Beach. Mommy had invited one her my co-workers, who happened to be Daddy's roommate, to join up with her and her friends in Las Vegas. Daddy accompanied his roommate to Vegas and it was an instant connection after they met. They were inseparable. After a year and half courtship, they got engaged. They were married on Sept 24, 2005. They were enjoying blissful married life filled with travel. After almost 4 years of marriage, they decided it was time to start a family. This is where I come into the picture. I am due on Nov 11, 2009. Mommy and Daddy have no idea what there in for...
