LegoLand

I love building with Legos! I even made my own little land where all the Lego Friend girls can live.

My new desk

While I spent the day with Nonie & Doc, Mom & Dad were busy building my new lofted bed and desk. What a surprise! It's the best Christmas ever!

More pictures, as requested. Merry Christmas, everyone!

Tastes like Christmas!

At school we decorated "gingerbread" trees. I ate a lot of the decorations first!

Holiday time

Max and I are very serious about these Christmas cookies. We decorated them ourselves at the tree lighting party in Golden Gate Park. Yum!

My little girls

I really like these clip dress dolls, and I hope I get more. Christmas is right around the corner, so I hope Santa checks my Amazon wishlist to see which Magiclip dolls I don't have yet!

Drift Boat Fishing

Mom and I went deep sea fishing in Florida, on the "Catch My Drift" party boat. It was really fun! Even though we didn't catch anything, first mate Sammie let me hold a Blue Runner that another person caught. I want to go again next year!

On Vacation

We're enjoying Lago Mar resort! I played golf with Mom & Dad, but I'm still hanging out with Aunt Stephanie, Uncle Christian, Gramalicia and lots of other family while I'm here.

Vermont's Finest

I'm visiting Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Christian this week, and we're having a great time! We toured Ben & Jerry's, and ate butterscotch chocolate chip ice cream. Moo!

Ice skating is fun

Noah's birthday party was at an ice rink! Skating was hard at first, but I got the hang of it, and only fell once. I want to go ice skating again tomorrow!

Mermaid Queen

The Giants World Series Championship parade was today in downtown San Francisco, but Mom & Dad came to my Halloween parade at Jefferson instead. They're my biggest fans! Happy Halloween!

CuriOdyssey

Nonie & Doc took me to CuriOdyssey at Coyote Point last weekend. This is my favorite picture. I'm playing with the blower that blows toys into the air, and waiting to catch one.

Swim buddies

Emma J, Josie, Max and I got to have a play date at a hotel while our parents all went to Brad & Emily's wedding. This is us in the pool. It was fun!

I love to draw

I'm really enjoying these step-by-step drawing books from Gramalicia. Check out my holiday drawings!

Go Giants, and go me!

It was Go Giants Orange & Black Spirit Day, and I won Student of the Week at Jefferson. I was so surprised!

Tall blondes

I went to the Zoo with Josie, and we did the giraffe stretch. Everyone thought she was my little sister, but I don't know why...

What do monkeys wish for?

Last week was Monkey's birthday. I decorated cupcakes for him all by myself. Then I helped him blow out the candles and eat!

Magic moments

I had a great time at Disneyland this weekend with lots of Nickels, even though it was really, really hot! Why doesn't the snow on the Matterhorn melt?

Magical wedding

Willow was a bridesmaid in her Dad's wedding this weekend. I had so much fun celebrating with everyone. And with this parasol, I feel like Mary Poppins!

8 seconds

This weekend at the SF Zoo Hoedown, I rode a mechanical bull. Well actually, I pretty much jumped right off. Yee haw! Will I ever try it again? I guess so...

Best Birthday Ever!

My 6th birthday lasted all weekend! I had an awesome bounce house party on Saturday, went to a concert on Sunday, and had a school party on Monday. To top it off, I got SO many presents that I can't decide what to play with first. And I got to choose the restaurant tonight- Park Chow! What a great day!

1st Grader

Today is the first day of school. My new shoes light up like a dance party! Thanks for the kicks, Aunt Steph!

The Family Business

Mom & Dad have been running lots of events recently. I'm really excited about it, and I even got my own Shinteki T-shirt so I can help out!

Summer is Sharing

Cousin Emma and I shared a sno-cone (and a chair) at Kira's slip-n-slide party last weekend in San Diego. It was sweet & cold, and it felt great on our new grown-up teeth! Splitting the treat left room for watermelon, cake and candy!

Sleepover

My friend Ale (pronounced like Ollie) spent the night on Friday. It was great timing, since we're both monkey doctors and there was a play-doh related monkey emergency that night. Hey, we said no pictures!

Home Sweet Home

Thanks for a great visit, Mimi and Papi! Now that I'm back home in the fog, I can climb a twisty tree with Daddy!

Flying solo

I flew to Chicago all by myself. And now I get to stay with Mimi and Papi!

The whole Bay Area is fun!

Last weekend I spent Saturday up north in Sonoma, and Sunday down south in Santa Cruz. I also got a new silver belt!

Tourist time

I've visited Pier 39 twice this summer, which is more often than most native San Franciscans!

What are you looking at?

Emma and I went to Stow Lake, and Mommy took the picture. Arr!

Festivaaal!

One more picture from the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. I had such a great time, and can't wait to go again!

Just a little rain

I had such a great time this week in Telluride with my little brother, Max!

Tinkerbell loves pirates

Last weekend we went to the Pirate Festival in Vallejo. It was really hot, and the ship to shore cannon battle was so loud it shook the air. I like pirates, but I'm pretty glad I don't have to be one all the time.

Nonie's birthday... in 3-D!

Mommy & Uncle Bob surprised Nonie for her birthday, then we all went to Disneyland. I really like the Toy Story 3-D ride, because I get to throw pies! Ian, Susie and Doc came too, but they like to sleep in late.

Happy Birthday Aunt Stephanie!

It was great to see Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Christian this week. It was so fun, and I even got Stephanie to wear a special birthday crown!

Mandarin Art Camp

I learned how to draw Kung Fu Panda, a tiger and a Chinese building at art camp. We also learned 3 songs in Mandarin, and then put on a show in the studio. It was really fun!

Stompin' Good Times

Over the weekend, Josie and I went to a party and tried out Katie & Noah's Stomp Rockets. They were awesome! Plus, the rockets can double as microphones in case we want to put on a show (which we do!)

All dressed up

Gramalicia helped me get ready for my Chinese concert. I looked very fancy on stage!

Sonoma weekend

I spent a long weekend in Sonoma with Mimi and Papi, having a great time. I wish Mommy & Daddy ran an event every weekend!

Batter up!

Last weekend I taught Max everything I know about baseball. It took about 2 minutes.

Spinning

Last week, my class went on a field trip to a sheep farm in Petaluma. Katie and I learned how to spin wool into thick yarn, and we made twisty bracelets!

Tooth #3

I lost my front tooth today, and it was about time! It was so wiggly, I couldn't wait for it to come out.

Orange Friday

Today was Giants spirit day at Jefferson. Lexi and I have so much orange stuff!

Pinkalicious!

Emma and I had pretend tea at cousin Breana's birthday party. It was really pink lemonade.

Easter stroll

I love a family walk to the Botanical Garden on Easter. I wear my new skirt, enjoy the sunshine and give out eggs to all the other kids.

Photography

I took this picture (and a bunch of other great ones) all by myself. Mommy finally found shoes with laces that I am really excited about. Pink flowers AND monkeys? I'll learn to tie those!

My waterfalls

Who knew there was more than one waterfall in my backyard, Golden Gate Park? This one is Rainbow Falls!
