We had a church member who works for the YMCA and was able to arrange a horseback riding for his son's birthday. Both boys were invited to this party. Both boys were being very polite and very brave, that was their first time riding a grown up horse. They had a really good time.
This year we decided to let Xander hide Khai's eggs. He was having so much fun doing that. While Khai was getting ready, Sean hurried went outside and hid Xander's eggs.
This is a easy spot. 這個地方很容易看到蛋的.
Almost done. 快要好了.
It's very rare that Khai wasn't whining about egg hunting this year. 今年好特別哦, 弟弟竟然在找蛋時都沒有發起床氣吔!
I found lots of eggs. 我找到好多蛋吔!
Can you find the hidden eggs? 你可以找到蛋嗎?
Xander couldn't resist the candies anymore. 哥哥等不及了, 已經開始吃糖果了.
Flower from our garden. Spring is here. 我們花園裡的花. 春天來了.
We threw Xander a birthday party when he was 6 years old. This year Khai turned 6 and of course we can't skip throwing him a party; otherwise he'll ask why we didn't love him in the future. So we asked who would he like to invite, but we told him that most of his friends couldn't make it. We were going to give Khai a surprise party.
Sean took Khai to pick up his birthday cake in the morning, Xander and I hurried went to the pizza place and set up the party. When Khai came in, he was surprised that his friends were there. The expression on his face was priceless, but I used our old camera that day, so you couldn't even see anything. What a bummer.
Khai is a clumsy boy, he usually has bruises or scratches without knowing it. Whenever he sees a small scratch or big cut, a band-aid can stop the crying / pain instantly. He LOVES band-aid. We used to insit that no band-aids would be giving unless he was bleeding, but when we saw that they make Khai so happy, we gave in. Since then, I started carrying band-aids in my purse just in case we need one.
Our band-aid supplies were running low (you can guess who usually uses them) the other day, so I picked up the Snoopy and Action Hero band-aids. Xander came home that afternoon and showed me the scratch on his hand, so I put on an Iron Man band-aid on him after the shower.
When kids were eating breakfast the next morning, Khai saw Xander's new band-aid and asked "Where did you get the Iron Man band-aid?" Xander: "Mama gave that to me last night." I saw Khai started looking at his hands and leggs and found no scratch, then he went :" Mama, Sasha (our cat) bit me last night". Nice try, Khai.
Khai's tooth had been loose for several weeks and while we drove to Chinese School last week, he was eating chips in the car and told me his tooth fell. He showed me his tooth, so tiny and so cute. He kept saying that he couldn't believe his tooth fell and the tooth fairy will come visit him tonight. Every since Xander lost teeth and got $$ from the tooth fairy, Khai was so jealous and had been asking when his teeth would fall. Now his dream came true. The tooth fairy sure brought him $$ under his pillow the next day.
Right afte Kahi lost his tooth, he told me that the tooth next to it is wiggly too and he was right. Maybe the 2nd tooth will fall pretty soon too. On Monday, 3/8/10, Khai came home and showed me his homework. I noticed that his 2nd tooth was missing. I asked him if he lost his tooth as school, he was so surprise to hear that. Ran to the bathroom and looked at the mirror. He came out so sad and worried that the tooth fairy wouldn't come and give him $$ because he lost his tootoh without knowing it. We told him to write a note to the fairy and maybe she would still come and visit. Of course tooth fairy came that night. Khai lost 2 teeth in 3 days, he needs to slow down otherwise he would have no teeth to chew.
