For the Love of Noodles

At least once a day I get a request for, "Spicy noodle's daddy." Which loosely translates to "I would like to eat the spicy noodles that my daddy does."

"Mmmm, taste."

B&Ws

Baby You Can Drive My Car

beep beep, m'beep beep yeah!

...and maybe I'll love you.

Iron, Lion, Zion!

It took all 9 months to name our sweet baby Z. We tried putting our suggestions in a hat and letting Aijalon choose. (For the record he drew out River, my 1st choice.)
I wrote all the names I liked on the chalkboard wall and stared at them each day. 

One night while staring at the names together Teng and I finally put it together, Zion Moses. 

And without further delay here he is.

 Love.

The Cowboy, before the TMD. (TotalMeltDown)

Anticipation.

The start of the parade in Auntie Beth's hood. He was totally into it for the 1st block...

 

Losing steam...

TMD in 3..2..1.

I'm sad now that I didn't get a picture of the screaming toddler falling down in the flower bed, but as luck would have it I have a picture from a past TMD.

Enjoy.

Traveling Toddler

I have been blessed with so many dear, sweet friends. One of my favorites is Linh, she is always thinking of others while she's out estate sale shopping and picked up this way cute retro suitcase for Aijalon.

Happy Travels

The look on his face...

I love when I capture these crazy looks with the camera!
