What a beautiful day for swimming - you gotta love the shots that Mom gets with Dad flying throw the air! Grandma had no idea what was coming towards her. Mom pretend that she was taking my picture when all of the sudden SPLASH!! if you click on the 2nd photo it will get bigger and check out the expression on Grandma's face seeing Dad in the air coming towards her. Then of course it was to late for myself jumping in, I went down to fast for her to get my jump.
Today we went to Tampa to Celebrate our CNY (Chinese New Year) event with our adoption agency and as always it was a hit. We got to the Embassy Suites Hotel early so that we could help Mrs. Susan and the girls set up. But first we took some pictures of ourselves. I looked like mini me to Dad - we always dress alike as it's Mom's plan to do so. I guess she's right about doing it, everybody seems to like it and is always telling me I look nice although I hate sometimes dressing up in a dress as I would say to Mom. Here I am helping Hannah and Olivia put fortune cookies on each table, this was our job last year and with the 3 of us we get it done pretty fast. This is Hannah and Olivia - they are both adopted by Mrs. Susan and Mr. Art, Hannah was adopted here in Florida 12 years ago and Olivia well you can see she's a China doll. and these cute little girls are sisters too....they are Julianna and Bella, they are also Hannah's and Olivia's sisters. and these people here are the proud parents of all Four girls adopted. They are Mrs. Susan and Mr. Art - he's a sergeant in Tampa. Here I am sitting behind Mom's chair helping put Chinese gifts in the bags for us Children. They weren't ready as you can see as the people bringing in the stuff was running a bit behind. But I didn't mind helping at all. Hannah and Mom were checking everyone in and handing out door stubs for prizes and baggies to the children. and now we have Mom's and Dad's God Children - Lillie and Conner. I missed them especially Lillie, for some reason I get along with her better then I do Conner. But Conner stood next to me for the longest time today watching me play my DS. This is Lillie, she is my age 7 ok - she's 2 weeks older then me. We celebrated all of our Birthday together last year, because we were all born in July. Lillie, enjoys being the big sister 2 both of us - I can't wait to be the big brother when my sister comes along. If, you have Mom's blog address you can view 2 smile boxes she put together of more Chinese Children - there were a lot of girls there today....and cute at that. This video is of the children at our CNY celebration doing the Chicken Dance. I have to admit that most of this video I was focusing on Lillie and Conner, because she was so good. Sam, on the other hand was focused on his hand games.
Sam just loved his gift this morning....yet another lego for Mom to build. I'm sorry if I don't appear to be to happy - it's because I was hoping for a Star Wars set. But after I Mom put it all together, I was all over it - I just love it. Sam played with it till bedtime 8:30p.
glitter-graphics.com Dad came up and had lunch with me today - that was a surprise because I forgot he was coming. He called Mom 2 times and left messages, but she was in class with me helping the teacher out and she was there all day long and kept her phone in the van. The first picture you will never see again. Mom had me buy my lunch at school today because she wouldn't pack me one and I'll tell you why. First off I don't blame her one bit - for the past week I haven't been eating my lunch it's because I do nothing but chat with friends during that time and I never have time to eat. Well Mom got sick of me bringing my food home and she throwing it in the trash. She caught me throwing my food out, not that she really did catch me, but I told Mom I would empty out my own lunch box and close the door behind me, how funny is that. Anyway that's it for now....
I made this card for my parents - Mom wanted to scan it but couldn't get the printer to do it so she's going to type in it -my card read inside: Mom I love you so much and Dad you are the best family a kid can have I wel never stop loveing you agine. Love and Hugs you are sweet!
Mom took this picture of me this morning because she loved what I looked like wearing my new clothes. She got me 3 new outfits, 2 of them being Oshkosh - the shorts that I have on are also oshkosh size 7x WOW I have an x in my clothes. The shorts I wore yesterday were really cool looking. I'm wearing red and white tomorrow - I'm not sure how the red shorts are going to look, but Mom picked them out so i'm sure they will be just fine being it's Valentine's Day.
This morning we decided to take a trip over to Orlando and tour downtown Disney before Aunt Kathy goes back home. Mom, picked Raven up so that I had someone to hang out with, as everyone knows I'm not a shopping or a walker - so Mom covered her basics and did good.
Mom and Aunt Kathy picked Raven and myself up after school and headed down to the Shell Factory in Ft Myers. It's a pretty cool place - we didn't do a whole lot because of time, but I we did get to play in the acarde which is always fun. Aunt Kathy wanted to pick up some allegotor heads for her family members.
What a fun day I had with my friends. Mom, went to pick Raven up this afternoon as her Mom decided not to come over because of her ears hurting. I had a great time with my friends. And i'm sorry to say that our team lost - but it was a good game. Mr. Pierre was fun to have around - he was the New York team here.
Mom, had a long talk with Raven's Mom yesterday and tried to get her to come to Church. Mom, told her if she wanted to come to our party then she should take her girls to Church! Ms Lorraine always said she drives past our Church and always wanted to go, so Mom is going to see to it she goes. She called her first thing this morning and she was not even dressed, so Mom ask her if we can pick up Raven and take her with us, Raven jumped right off the phone and got herself dressed in second's flat. We picked her up and carried her to Church with us and she really liked it. Here sits Sam with all the woman he just is so in love with....I think our little boy is turning into a little man. Oh, by the way if one body knows who we're rooting for it's the Patriots......GO "PATRIOTS"
Sam, had his 2nd birthday today! It's was Elisa's birthday a little girl from his class, she's a very high drama queen in class and man was she ever one at her own party. The kids sang to her and then she walked away - pouting and sits in a corner, for what reason's I don't know. Anyway, Mom gave Raven and her Mom a drive back to there car and even showed them where we lived so that they can come over tomorrow for our big party. After Mom dropped them off and took Aunt Kathy to walmart - Mom and I sat in the van and I had something important to tell Mom. I told my Mom that I was IN LOVE with Raven....so she and I had a nice talk about being in Love! I also told her I was in love with Meghan and Sheighlin as well. Raven is pictured with her little sister. I told Mom Raven was very smart and beautiful and she agreed with me 100%.
For my 8th birthday my parents took me on the cruise of a lifetime. A Nickelodeon family fun cruise. It was for 7 nights cruising to Cozumel Mexico, George Town, Grand Cayman, Ocho Rios Jamaica a Private Destination being LaBadee Haiti aboard the biggest Royl Caribbean cruise ship "The Freedom of the Seas. I had the time of my life. I got to meet 3 famous people Jennette (Sam) and Nathan (Freddie) from iCarly and Tom Kenny the voice of Spongbob Squarepants. Got to ride, play and swim with 2 dolphins. And even met Nathan Kress manager who was sitting right in front of us during a sneak preview of the Gym Teacher - The Movie that Nathan was in. It wasn't a sneak peek, we got to see the movie before it came out on Nick...that was awesome. If you want to see more pictures from our entire cruise go back to my Mom's blog and you will find it under our Travel Blog.
