No Pictures!

I spent all of the last two weekends in Sonoma with Mimi and Papi. We had such a great time, we forgot to take any pictures. Mommy finally took one, but it came out blurry. Oh well, I've got lots of great memories anyway!

Ballerina

Daddy and I went to Ale's ballet performance on Sunday. It was really fun! I wore my new dress, and the locket Ale gave me.

My First Maker Faire

Who knew that homemade robots could be so much fun? Mom and I had a blast at Maker Faire last weekend, and we even saw Adam Savage, from MythBusters. That's one of my favorite shows!

Stage Giggles

At the Saint Anne's School open house, my class performed two songs in Chinese. We did a great job, but then one boy said "thank you!" in a funny voice and we all cracked up. Classic Derek!

Happy Mother's Day!

My Mom sure loves me a lot, so I wanted to make her day special. I made a vase, and paper flowers, and a book for her. I also picked some real flowers for her in the park.

The Golden Swans

Today at the zoo we saw a tiger kitten, two adorable goat kids and a bunch of prairie dog pups. But I really liked posing on this sculpture best. Mom said it's geese, but I disagree.

Students of the Week!

I was Student of the Week on Friday, and so was my buddy Isabella! I also got to show off my first big sewing project, a shiny blue skirt.

Climbing

At Dilly's birthday party, I was the first kid to climb the rock wall. It was really fun!

Monkeying around

My new sock monkey is really cute. Ale and I like to sit in the school garden with her, but we only have one chair!

Crazy straw

I built a straw so long, I can drink from a cup on the floor. Crazy!

Braces!

On Tuesday, I got my upper and lower palette expanders, plus brackets on my front teeth. I look pretty cool. Mostly I love my braces, but sometimes I hate them a tiny bit.

Sign Hill Park!

We hiked to Sign Hill Park. I am sitting on the "C" in city. We went to other letters also. Daddy and I went all the way to the top of the "H" in south.

My City!

Room 101 took a field trip to the Randall Museum. After visiting the museum exhibits, we hiked to the top of the hill for a great view of our favorite city.

Bye-bye baby teeth

My adult teeth are so big, they need extra space to come in. So the dentist extracted two baby teeth to make room. Now I get ice cream for lunch!

Aunt Stephanie is great!

We met Aunt Steph in Union Square and walked to the Embarcadero. Uncle Christian joined us for dinner, too! We saw the Bay Bridge Lighting up! It had lots of different patterns.
