Lola Syl is back in town!

On December 26, we picked up Lola Syl from the airport... she'll be in town for a little over a week!... maybe I'll show her my crawling skills!

Little Drummer girl

My 200th post!... I'M CRAWLING!

Finally! I started crawling at Grandma's... I guess it's easier to crawl on carpet than crawling on hardwood, because I tried the next day and I just couldn't do it!

Mommy was a little upset because she missed the first few steps (she was in the kitchen with Grandma) but my uncles Jason and Josh were able to catch some of my first crawl moments on video!

Grandma Dolly makes me laugh!

It was a little past my bedtime, but I wouldn't go to sleep because Grandma Dolly kept making me laugh! and I kept wanting her to make me laugh too!

Our First Family Christmas

Our first (post-nap) Family Picture on Christmas Day!

My first Christmas!!!

Yay! It's Christmas Day Already!
It's finally here!
Merry Christmas to everyone from our family to yours!

Here I am in my Christmas Dress!
Don't I look SMASHING?!?

Here I am with Mommy...
Check out my new boots... aren't they the CUTEST?!?

Cheesin' with Daddy!
I get my good looks from him!

Grandma and me!
We were laughing together after this picture!

Look! I'm standing!
(Can you guess who's holding me?)

Trying to look as proper as I can!


Great-Grandma Dolly and me!


Grandpa Trevor and me!


Grandma, Grandpa and me!
Don't I look so serious!
I've had enough of the picture taking already!!!


Ooooh! Shiny wrapping paper!

Look at all these presents!!!

Can you spot me?

Me and my Uncle Josh...
Opps! you can see my panty!

Unwrapping my first present!

Who cares about the gift inside, it's the wrapping paper that counts!

Everyone's opening their presents!


Grandpa Trevor waits patiently for his gift!


Daddy and me!


Look at all the chaos!


I love shiny things!
I wonder how that silver ornament will taste!

Cousin Simon loves to give me kisses!
Even Elijah said "I love Addison"... how sweet!
He still calls me "Simon's cousin", though.


Cousin Simon gives me a hug!


Me and Mommy by the tree!


Grandma and me under the tree!

Cousin Simon and me under the tree...
Elijah was busy playing guitar hero!

Christmas Eve!

This was our very first Christmas Eve together as a family!
It's Mommy and Daddy's First Christmas together too! Mommy usually spends Christmas in Toronto (or Tokyo), while Daddy spends Christmas over here! They always spend New Years together...but now, we all finally get to be together!

Here I am with one of my new presents! a new drum and Maracas! Maybe I can have a jam session with Ate Seyla or Kuya Elijah one day!

My first Christmas outfit!
Complete with a sailor cap!

This is me under Grandma's Christmas tree...
Look at all the presents! I can't wait to open them! (and put wrapping paper in my mouth, like when Mommy was wrapping presents!)

Kinda hard to find me, eh?

Take 1
I'm looking at Mommy, let's try again!

Take 2
Uh oh, Grandma blinked...

It's ok... the food's getting cold!

Thanks for the yummy Christmas Dinner Grandma Lynn!

Uncle RJ comes to visit!

On December 24th, Uncle RJ came to visit us from New York!
It was very nice to see him, I haven't seen him since Ninong Ray's wedding!

He talked about moving back to the Bay... I think he should! Then he can babysit me on Saturday nights while Mommy and Daddy go out.... (YA RIGHT!!!)

I want that Camera Case!

I'm determined to get Mommy's camera case... This slippery floor is FRUSTRATING!!!


AHHHH... Forget it!


This is TOOOO EASY!

Merry Christmas Everybody!

Just wanted to show what a ROCKSTAR I am!

Here I am in front of our tree!

Thanks everyone for your Christmas Cards!
Can you find yours on our Christmas Card wall?!?

Happy Birthday Ate Hannah!

Just wanted to wish my Ate Hannah
Happy 8th Birthday!

Sorry we posted this a day late, but better late than never!

Here are some pictures of us and some pictures of you when you were little!
Mommy had lots of fun looking up old pictures of you... She says she still remembers when you were my size!

Love you!

This is me with my Ate Hannah... Isn't she pretty!

Here we are in Lake Tahoe.

I think she was about 2 or 3 when this picture was taken...
Look! We have the same belly! We MUST be related!

Soooooo Cute!

Halloween 2004 - the last time Mommy spent Halloween with Ate Hannah...

This picture was on Mommy's wall in Japan... but it wasn't sideways like it is here...

Cute!

Ate Hannah likes to stick out her tongue like me!

Ate Hannah was 6 in this picture!

She was up past her bedtime!

Happy Birthday Hannah!
I hope you like the pictures I found!
