Correction on 12/19/2007 Posting

This is actually one of the outfits my good friend, Kay Lee Kennedy, has given Emma for Christmas not from Grandma Carmen. They had both given Emma a purple footies so I mentally flip-flopped the two. Sorry, Kay...

Getting Into Her Diapering Supply

Look Who's Drinking Emma's Milk

Daddy is wearing the bib from Steph/Melodie/Karrie and drinking Emma's milk.


"Hey, wait a minute...that looks like my bottle..."


We are all ready for church.


Posing with 媽媽.


Laying comfortably on 媽媽's tummy.


The smile she learned from 表哥 Bao Bao.

Trying to Steal 媽媽's Food

"Hmm...that looks yummy..."


"Let me have a taste."


"Let me see it closer."


"Come on, just a small bite."


"Don't be cheap la, 媽媽!"

Mom put away some of my stuff in the gift bag Chingman gave her. She saw it by the window and she rolled till she got her hands on it.

Merry Christmas!

Our Emmama's 1st Christmas.

Emma was playing with her new toy from Chingman, Josiah and Scott.

She kept chasing it...

And chasing it...

It seems to grab her attention so I think this is a great toy for babies to stimulate crawling.

What's left of the 12 chocolate covered strawberries from Bo Bo (Betty) and Cindy.

The pretty box that they came in.

Hmm...the yum yum cookies that were part of the giftbox. As of this morning, there are only 4 left (out of 12) but since Chevo is home the count can go as low as 0.


The jacket 舅舅 and 妗妗 sent Emma.

Getting near the chair again. Checking out what's the big fuss. Nosy baby just like daddy!

Looking all serious when daddy was holding her.

Contemplating her next move, perhaps...

Emma and daddy.

Emma's 1st Christmas turned out to be a white one. So we went outside to take a picture before all the snow melted.

Posing in front of the house.

In front of our neighbor's house across the street with all the pretty lights.

Checking to see if snow is still coming down...nah, only misty rain remains...

It was really cold so I had to sport my down jacket from Soy Yee.

媽媽 and her baby.

媽媽 was trying to dip Emmama in the snow.

A Trip to Seattle With the Callahams

On our way to Seattle on the ferry.


媽媽 had a tourist take a picture for her...funny how that worked out.


It was a beautiful day on Christmas' Eve.


The two-in-one reindeer/Santa Claus posing with us.


She couldn't wait till Christmas day...


Getting into Chingman's gift for her.


Playing with the tissue papers.


The pretty outfit from Chingman.


And the Moving and Crawling Ball is a motorized ball that stimulates gross motor movement and catches Baby’s attention with colors and lights.


Playing with her lamb from Godma Christine.


"Hmm...I see another gift!"


"I want that, too!"


Emma opening her gift from Auntie Toi Yi.


"Hmm...let's see what this is."


"Let me bite open the bag."


"Oooh, a jacket! Different color and size than the one 舅舅 and 妗妗 got me. I have a new jacket at each age."


The little piggy is from daddy.


The bilingual guitar from Auntie Ellen/Cindy, 哥哥 Benjamin and Uncle William.


And also this funny worm that sings and counts.
