We also celebrated three birthdays with family (my mother-in-law, my niece Hannah,and myself) and of course, Easter! Goodbye winter and hello spring!<br /><br />So glad to see Noah and Abigail were getting along better, as Abigail talked more. I have to admit together they sometimes outwitted me! The kids nowadays are much smarter than they were 25 years ago, but I truly wish they are as happy as we were.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="400" height="267" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&captions=1&noautoplay=1&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2Famychou34%2Falbumid%2F5456053531438106785%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Danny & Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01537985982203521962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29012297.post-52498340226942730042010-04-02T23:23:00.000-07:002010-04-07T00:00:00.446-07:00Happy Easter!I have to say this bunny is cute.

Here are the photos. The views were so pretty that it was hard not to include any picture.<br /><br />Most of our friends left home on Friday, but we left on Saturday. We were concerned about the snow storm warning, but we were glad that we made it because in the morning it only had light snow. As soon as we arrived, the snow started getting heavy. It was so heavy that I could hear the snow falling down. We enjoyed the views very much as the snow stacked up. On Sunday the weather couldn't get any better. It was so sunny that we needed our sunglasses. Thanks to the changing weather, for only two-day short trip we could capture so many different snow views. Hope you enjoyed the pictures as much as I do.<br /><br /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="400" height="267" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&captions=1&noautoplay=1&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2Famychou34%2Falbumid%2F5446943413705147089%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed><br /><br />Videos are as follows in case you haven't watched them yet.<br /><br />Danny & Noah went sledding on the first day.

Good to have these pictures to remember our days. Enjoy!<br /><br />I hope I'll have at least a couple of postings between the photo recap... I felt bad for Abigail when I read how detailed I blogged about Noah. She is a really special baby just like Noah. Not even 2 years old yet, she can talk very well, sing the songs she only heard a couple times, and jump off from the bed (Can you believe that?).

I knew her through my blogger friend Nicole. Catherine was born on November 15th, 2009 with Spina Bifida but did not survive her shunt surgery on Tuesday, November 24th, right before Thanksgiving. No words can express how this family must be feeling right now.<br /><br />A year ago Abigail had a back surgery and stayed at hospital for seven weeks.

Here's something about her:<br /><br />She's around 32" tall and weighs around 24 pounds, both about 40-50 percentile (she was born less than 5%, so she's catching up).<br /><br />What she likes: her brother, sleeping, eating (so far I didn't find any food she doesn't eat, and a lot of times she eats more than Noah), talking (her favorite word for now--"NO!"), singing, running and climbing (constantly moving around), "reading" books (together with playing, chewing, and tearing)<br /><br />What she dislikes: washing hairs (it should be more but I can't think of any now).<br /><br />Our Abigail is definitely an active, independent, happy baby girl!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic5DWaubJDUcxMzxQuwMarURZ5J36OeRjplD6C_2aMgZJXy3licP8_8gW20_nldV1bLLhg6PS811Ca6Cm6DprK4BeF7h8cUYNPXzgS4ty4uSIjX4yAlqsURDSAbGNFpUmQ-fEu/s1600/IMG_6416.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405405014143872322" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic5DWaubJDUcxMzxQuwMarURZ5J36OeRjplD6C_2aMgZJXy3licP8_8gW20_nldV1bLLhg6PS811Ca6Cm6DprK4BeF7h8cUYNPXzgS4ty4uSIjX4yAlqsURDSAbGNFpUmQ-fEu/s320/IMG_6416.JPG" border="0" /></a>Danny & Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01537985982203521962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29012297.post-76800113730173909072009-11-07T23:51:00.000-08:002010-04-07T00:05:58.265-07:00Circle TimeDo you find there's one student much younger than the others? Yes, that's my Abigail. I'm very proud of her. (Noah too, of course) I can't believe she's not even one and a half year old!<br /><br /><embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AYGtuj4A" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="320" height="270" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>Danny & Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01537985982203521962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29012297.post-42186052742024027982009-11-05T23:09:00.000-08:002009-11-06T03:10:41.877-08:00Photo Recap (October 2009)<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" width="400" height="267" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&captions=1&noautoplay=1&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2Famychou34%2Falbumid%2F5389023790755975009%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed>Danny & Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01537985982203521962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29012297.post-84408502155424120742009-10-27T23:05:00.000-07:002010-04-07T00:05:58.266-07:00Bye Bye, PacieIn October one thing notable about Abigail is weaning from pacifier. We used pacifier mostly for 1) getting her to sleep, 2) keeping her quiet (during class, church, etc.), 3) putting her in carseat. One day we decided not to offer it to her when she went to bed, and she did not use it ever since! (she did see it once and cried for it badly)<br /><br />Abigail got three pacifiers from the hospital exactly one year ago when she had the <a href="http://rewardfromhim.blogspot.com/2008/10/she-is-fighter.html" target="_blank">back surgery</a> and stayed at the hospital for 7 weeks. I haven't thrown them away because they were such good companion during the hospital stay, esp. when her thumb wasn't available due to the IV. (Many, many thanks to the nurse at the hospital for telling me it's much easier to wean the baby off from pacifier than thumb.)<br /><br />So, the following video is precious to us. Happy Anniversay and Goodbye, Pacie!<br /><br /><embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AYGq4T4A" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="320" height="270" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>Danny & Amyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01537985982203521962noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29012297.post-55866104453197115022009-10-18T22:13:00.000-07:002010-04-07T00:05:58.266-07:00Going to schoolIn the mid September a new semester began! Noah loves school so much that he still can't understand why he can't go to school every day (only Mon/Wed/Fri). At first I was worried I couldn't handle two kids at the same time in class, but it turned out just fine. Noah is more and more like a big brother so he doesn't need my help that much. I'm glad he's having a great time learning new things (not the crafts though) and making new friends (same with me!). Abigail is also learning a lot of new things. I'm amazed she could sing a lot songs she heard from school! One good thing is she graduated from playing the toilet to playing the sink.<br /><br />Following video and pictures show you how busy but rewarding my life is.<br /><br /><embed src="http://blip.tv/play/AYGoqDMA" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="320" height="270" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed><br />Noah and Abigail at driving school (Please note: Noah was "drifting" in the end of the video.)<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwV8S0mRnSexqsgBD6vdFEAG8GUeQVE36x5Gxzpc_fVrJ-dceCEzMrGXZvznuQSf1wFio8dejQHiLOVLxzwRTjg4dWDbh0i2YzRf_l2yokEH1Pk0mJfm4P2gSZrXRGXcNrntm0/s1600-h/IMG_5410.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394178772046340210" style="FLOAT: left;
