What Saturdays Were Meant For....

This morning we leisurely woke up and decided to go grocery shopping...first we stopped at GrandAsia and then to Aldi's and then to Food Lion....we got home and put our many many bags away into the fridge and pantry and I proceeded to cook while Caleb played outside and Jay helped both me and watch Caleb. We made tripe from a dim sum recipe I found online, 'green sauce' for white cut chicken, clams, beef tongue (sorry for those who'll find that offputting), white fish we steamed whole with scallions, ginger and cilantro and baby bok choy with fried tofu and fish balls. This is how we usually do things....cook all weekend so that we eat leftovers for the rest of the week. This is what Saturdays were meant for.

Vancouver Family Pics

I had to post these....they're from Vancouver....pics that my cousin Jason took which are just amazing.

Caleb the Pilot

I forgot to post this earlier....but on our flight to Dallas, the pilot pulled Caleb into the cockpit and gave him his hat and told Caleb to pretend that he was flying the plane! :)

Caleb & the Tractor

Jay's been on spring break at school so he and Caleb have been running around...I'm so jealous.

Pics from Rosalynn's Big Day

So most of our pictures were posted on Facebook since the majority of Jays family is on facebook (including Momo and Popo!)....I'll post some highlights later...in the meantime, here are some pics off of my camera phone. We had a blast in TX and can't wait to visit again. I feel like I left a peice of myself behind with Jay's family.

Zing Zang Zoom

We went to the circus with the Sherrons this past weekend. Zing Zang Zoom! It was a really interesting show...what was more interesting was that I had speculated with Caleb on the way in whether we were going to see elephants, tigers and monkeys...and then after the show, Caleb says "Mommy....there were NO monkeys!"...I was impressed that he remembered what we were discussing beforehand.

That's Zachary's face when you ask him to smile :)

Tommorrow we leave for Rosalyn and Courtney's wedding!

Vancouver

There is just absolutely no way I could post all the pics to do our Vancouver trip justice...I literally have thouhsands of photos between myself, my sister and my cousin Jason.....here's a small taste. I posted a little over 100 photos on facebook....:)

Growing out the hair

Just a quick couple of shots to show you what Caleb's hair is looking like now. We're growing it out just to see...:)

Playdate and Superbowl

We had a playdate with Zachary this past weekend....Caleb and him played so well together! Then on Sunday we went to the Wallaces to visit with the twins and watch the superbowl....Caleb is now asking whether we can have a baby like one of the Wallace twins :P

Raleigh Snow Day

We had a snow weekend and thanks to the dump of snow we received on Friday night, we were off straight through till Tuesday. Caleb had a ball in the snow and we had filled some spray bottles colored with food coloring and we went out turning our snow red and green (I decided against coloring it yellow ;P)

Riley's Birthday Party

This past weekend, we went to Riley's, (my friend Heather from work's son) 7th birthday party. It was at the Palace Pointe bowling alley in Durham and it was the first time that Caleb had bowled! We told him that it was just like Wii bowling (that he played at GungGung's house) and he had a ball. He had the whole run and drop tactic down packed. :) It was so fun!

This little cutie is Jamie...Heather's daughter that loves pink and is a total princess ;)

And here's riley with is skateboard cake...he's the sweetest 7 year old I know :)
