Is it almost time to go home already? I'm gonna miss my first vacation.

February 3, 2006 | Superbowl XL came to town and we went to check out the festivities downtown.

Posing by the water fountain in Campus Martius.

Checking out the sights and sounds of the Winter Blast

Even Mommy was a football fan that night.

Here we are, dressing up for the big game.

January 29, 2006 | Happy Chinese New Year! May you have fortune and happiness throughout this year of the Dog. [FYI, last year was the year of the Rooster and I was born at the tail end of the year of the Monkey]

Here I come...get out those red envelopes :)

Before Grandpa and Grandma hand out the red envelopes, we all gathered around and sang some songs.

And here I am, trying to play a tune.

There's Uncle Kham Souck saying how big I've grown.

Wow! There's a lot of nice red envelopes inside. Do I just get one or all?

Well, I think the answer is all :)

Like my long ponytail?

Here's we are, the 3 little babies. Oh, let me introduce cousin Brandon in the middle. I'll teach him how to suck his thumb real good.

Ok, now it's just me horsing around.

Ok, now it

Birthday #1...count 'em! Thank you to everyone for making my first year so memorable. I had a great time at my birthday party and the gifts were far too generous. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

That's me, the birthday boy in his birthday chair.

Mmmm...icing and cake. Just 365 more days to my next sugar high.

Had to show you my new wares. Watch for me on HNIC in 18 years :)

Almost midnight New Year's Eve | Happy New Year everyone from Shaelyn, Ekaterina, and I. May 2006 be filled with happiness, good health, and prosperity. Don't forget to make your resolution come true!

Dec 31, 2005 | Enoying the nice wintery weather - part 1

Enjoying the nice wintery weather - part 2

Look, Sasquatch footprints. We must follow it now...bye bye.

It's not so bad out here today. I got to taste fresh snow and Daddy eventually helped turn me into a snow angel.

Dec 29, 2005 | Rockin' into the New Year with Shaelyn.

Christmas Day 2005 | On my very first Christmas, we got up real early to unwrap all the presents underneath our beautiful tree. Oh yeah, Santa drank all the milk and ate all the cookies (didn't even leave one for me)!

There's Auntie Yetch Yong and I (isn't Chester the snowman cute?)

Is that Santa Claus or Grandpa? If it's the former, I think Grandpa's going to have issues with Santa putting his arms around Grandma.

Sharing a laugh with Auntie Fonch Yong

Yay...got through opening all my presents. Look at my cool new couch (don't worry, it's not a loveseat).

Too much wrapping, I just want to get to the goods.

Dec 23, 2005 | Mr. & Mrs. Yang came over for tea and of course, ME!
