oh, because several cold days at the end of March, the tinny peaches on my beautiful peach tree are all gone. So this year, we will not have that delicious peaches as last year. This really bothered me a lot. I kept telling every body about this bad news. But Laolao said I could have some declicious peaches while I was in China, which is encouraging and more attractive to me.
These days, Mom started buying soymilk for us, especially letting us drink at night. To be honest, I don't like that taste compared to milk. But Mom said there might not be milk as what we drank here at her hometown, so we needed to be prepared. Hearing this, I started to ask for soymilk every night in order to be used to the life in China. See, I am a prepared person. haha...

Did is 14 months old. we are so happy that he is officially a toddler. You can imagine how a house will be with two little mobile ones haha... So we are taken out to play quite often once the weather is good.
You may notice that Didi's new army hair style. This is his second haircut. This time he was not so cooperative as the first time, and only my Mom cut it. It only took her 25 minutes from getting ready to cleaning up. oh, poor Didi.....
You may also notice that Maomao is with us at the backyard. Right now he is a out-door cat. Mom did think about letting him be out before this spring. That day when Dad played with us at the back yard,Maomao was very excited,he broke his "house" and came out. When we saw him, he was rolling over in the sand,so Mom said that it was time for Maomao being in the backyard. Since that day, he was in the backyard. These days,once he heard we were in the kitchen or saw our lights on at night, he would come to cry and wanted to come in. But it is you who give up your comfort room first. Sorry, poor Maomao....
PS: since Maomao is in the backyard, we can play with hime more than he was inside.

Mom keeps laughing at me that I don't have the concept of the distance between China and America.
Last month when she took Hugh and me to take a passport picture for Hugh, she told me that Hugh needs a passport if we go to China. So right after we took the picture, I asked wheather we would go to China then. She said we needed to go to the United Supermarket, so I said we could go to China after we went the United. She laughed and said, " China is far away, we couldn't go today."
This afternoon, Dad came back earlier to take us to apply passport for Hugh. It went smooth and Hugh would have a passport, so once we got in the car, I asked Mom again, "are we going to China? We didn't bring the coat for Cousin --Guo zehan yet. We need to go home first. " Then both Mom and Dad told me," we need to wait for Hugh's passport, then apply our visas, then we need to buy plane tickets, then we need to go to the airport, then we can go to China. .." It sounds too complicated. ... I think I will figure it out later.

Right before his one year old birthday, Didi became interested in walking. He did practice some, but he still stopped walking once he realized he was walking. Today, he is 13 month old. He really walked a lot. I mean he would walked at least 4-5 steps each time and he was intended to walk. He even cheered for himself. It's funny to see how excited he was. We will play together more and more as he could realy walk.
Dad took Didi and me to Midland yesterday. We had a great time. We behaved very well even though Mom was not with us. It is a special way to celebrate Valentine's Day! hahaha..

The sale clerks here are very polite. Most time they will ask you "do you find everything all right?" when you check out.
Yesterday, Mom took us to the local grocery store, which mailed us som coupon. When Mom was choosing the items we needed, she remembered that she had a coupon. So she started searching it from the bag. I asked her what she was looking for, she told me she was looking for a coupon. But anyway, she didn't find it. So when we checked out, the clerk asked us,"do you find everything all right?", I told him that Mom couldn't find the coupoon. haha... luckily, he couldn't understand what I meant, or we will "loose face."

Didi is one year old today. This morning, once I woke up, I said " Happy Birthday" to him, who seemed he didn't care, then I said "sheng ri kuaile didi," He still didn't value too much what I said. Sign... he is still "young".
One day, when we was waiting for Mom in the car, Dad and I have already discussed with Hugh what kind of birthday cake he wanted. It seemed that he wanted banana cake,while I suggested strawbary cake. But when we went to Walmart, we didn't find either of them from the brand cake mix that we like. So we ended up to buy him a pineapple cake.
My family all know that I am a birthday fan. I love celebrating everyone's birthday. For Didi's one, certainly I need to help,too. " wo shi da haizi."
Tonight while Mom was preparing for the cake, I helped her to sort the Goldenfish cracker that she would use to write on Hugh's birthday. I did a great sorting as they said. I also helped Mom to grease the pan and seperated the biscuit.When Mom mixed the frosting, I also helped her lick the spoon, hahaha.. Mom made an effort to choose the material to write on Hugh's cake. This time, she didn't use katchup. All materials are healthy, colorful and eatable. His name is written with grape and "Shengri kuaile" is written with the Goldenfish cracker that I sorted. Then kiwi is used to make a smile face. The most enjoyable thing that I helped Hugh for his birthday is to blow the candle, open the cards and gift, then read to him. haha...
Once these were all done, I was eager to go to another room to watch TV. oh, another thing I cooperated well is to let Mom and Dad take pictures with Hugh.

I am already two and half years old. These days, what I often said is " wo shi da haizi le." ( I am a big girl.) So I need ask a lot of similar questions, like "can I do this since I am big girl?" It is true. I can really do a lot of things now.
I have been practicing using scissors. Right now my skill is not bad. I am learning drawing,too. I could spell (orally) and recognize my name and Hugh's. The most entertaining thing is to make up stories or songs all by myself.

We had a holiday breakfast--bacon,biscuit, fried egg and grape fruit at our home, then we , the whole family headed for a movie--bedtime stories. We had a good time. We three enjoyed it. In fact, Didi too. He watched almost the whole movie. Only at the end, he fell in sleep with the story.
Tonight, we opened the Christmas gift from Aunt Amy---a Sushi playset. I really enjoy cutting. I cooked cabbiage for my whole family. Didi is a quick learner. In a short time, he figured out how to stick the sushi together. He also knew the princile of using knife. He really enjoyed using one chopstick to "stick" one of the sushi. It's great toy. we like it. Thank you Amy Gugu!
PS. we are looking forward to seeing Hugh's walking. He has been practice in the last two days. He did stand on his own for a little while once and twice and took one steop once or twice. It seems that he is working hard to start walking before or on his birthday.

Merry Christmas!
Yeye and Nainai came to have Christmas with us this year. It is so nice to spend time with them. Both Didi and me enjoy playing with them. Even though it is first time for Didi to meet them in person, he didn't have any problem to get along well with them. It is so amazing. Certainly, it is no any problem with me either. They have come to see me several times after I was born.
This year, no surprise that I continue to get a lot of nice clothes and fun toys. Didi got some,too. Temperarily, I still treat those as mine. We should share, isn't it right?

Tonight at Chinese church, we had a Christmas Party to celebrate Jesus' birth. We (little children from Sunday school) sang two songs. As they said, I performed very well compared to the others who are similar age as me. Mom said that I did perform better than the practice. I was happy that my other friends,like RuiRui and Isabella came,too.
