Hanna’s first birthday is coming up and her parents wanted to string together photographs of her with clothespins and ribbons to use as an art piece for her birthday party.
How adorable does Hanna look in her outfits?
Cute pose! Hanna actually doesn’t like hats too much. I captured the photograph below as she reached up to pull off the hat.
Hanna loves bananas!
Yup, that’s Sophia on the right.
My little angel is as devious as she looks below.
Today was our 2nd attempt at going to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach. The Chan-Clan were all in bed together early Saturday morning and Sophia refused to give her daddy a kiss. So I did what did I do? I bribed her. I told her that we’ll go to the Aquarium and she more than happy to give daddy little kisses. Why was it our 2nd attempt? There were 3 conventions happening in Long Beach, in addition to the Red Bull Flugtag event yesterday. We sat in traffic and managed to go 2 blocks in one hour. Needless to say, Sophia and everyone else was restless so we headed back home.
Sophia was so excited to pet the rays.
Sophia kept saying “wow”.
My favorite photograph of the day.
Sophia turned one at 8:40 pm today. She’ll celebrate her first birthday tomorrow with a small group of family and friends. Below are the first photographs of my one year old daughter.
It’s difficult to believe how fast the days have passed. Just one year ago, I was anxiously standing in the hallway immediately outside the OR. The Doctor said he would call for me when Sophia is born. I heard a cry and then another and rushed in to see the nurses cleaning my daughter. I checked to make sure Cindy was okay then returned to take the very first photographs of Sophia barely minutes old. Sophia is now one. She can stand and take small steps. She has a small set of vocabulary and can say mamma, grandma, bird, flower, food, and a few others in Chinese. She comprehends a lot more than she can vocalize at the moment. She even clenches both her fists and throws a tantrum! My, how time flies.
