May update

Sorry have not been here in a while. Facebook takes my interent energy so if you want to see how we're doing, that's were we are most of the time.

Liana wanting to drive already..... This is before we are leaving Roseville to come home.

We went to the happiest place on earth last week for Ah-Kung's 70th birthday. More photos at the girls page.

Flying back home. Our house is somewhere in this photo below the wing. I thinks its above the patch of dirt which is Bay Meadows.

Car hood

Finally got my hood repainted from it's pain of living in upstate New
York for 2 years. It looks like new again and I don't have to drive
around in my trashy looking car anymore!

Fatherhood part 1

Things I have learned and surprised about being a father.
Part 1 of many

1. No more sleeping in for Mom and Dad.
2. I never thought I would worry and stress out about when kids go to sleep, how many hours they get, where the sleep, etc.
3. I never thought I would sleep in bed with another girl.
4. Irony - fighting with you kid to sleep and then fighting with them to get up.
5. When kids are really tired you would think they would pass out. They are now over tired and won't fall asleep easily.
6. The car ride can be your friend and your enemy.
7. Kids, well my kid, don't like to go to sleep, be told to go to sleep, and be reminded its time to go upstairs.
8. The first half hour your kid is out. This is the only time you can move them, after the half hour they'll probably wake up.
9. Your kid doesn't care that you or their siblings are asleep. When they are awake, you will be too.
10. Kids are smart. They understand the routine. They may embrace some of the routine, but my kid knows that means sleep which causes problems.
11. I've never had to tip toe to bed before.
12. If you don't hear any noises in their bedroom, don't go in to check on them. You'll wake them up. We still do it anyways.
13. The baby monitor is your friend and your enemy.
14. Reading before bed is good for you and the kid. Try not to fall asleep first or number 9 will be enacted.
15. There is nothing cuter then when your kid wants to snuggle with you.
16. Wanting your kid to fall asleep faster so you can watch TV or do something else only makes it take longer.
17. Promising to do something fun after naptime can work, but kids still remember after they wake up so be prepared to do it.
18. Full body PJ's are a pain, especially if you are potty training.
19. Don't forget overnight diapers, or you will probably be washing sheets the next morning. I never knew there was a difference between overnights and regular.
20. When your kid is old enough and sick, Triametic or Benadryl is your friend and enemy.
