Boston Common

My parents took Emery to Boston Common for an afternoon just with Emery. They walked around gardens, saw the ducks and rose the iconic swan boat. Afterwards they took Emery to eat steamed buns “xiao long bao” in Chinatown and Layer went to Copley. They spoiled her rotten like great grand parents and bought her a dress and a terrier purse that she picked out herself. Here are some pics from that great afternoon in the city of Boston.

She’s now 4!

Yup, that’s right, Emery has official turned 4 today. We spent her birthday in Boston and had a family birthday party.

We too a river boat cruise in the morning as part of Eugene’s graduation. The weather was perfect today and Boston was absolutely gorgeous.

Afterwards, my parents took Emery to Boston Garden to see the ducks and a swan boat ride.

In the meantime, Ashley, Eugene, Enzi(Eugene’s BU friend) and I picked up Emery’s cake, party supplies and food for the birthday party.

We surprised Emery with a birthday party at home when she returned and she had so much fun. Emery loves princesses and hello kitty so we have her a well themes party.

Here’s some pics:

Emery’s art

We have been doing “art projects” at home and she does a lot at school as well. Emery loves doing art and Ashley bought water colors and large paper canvas for her to draw.

Here’s one she drew around 3.5 years old. I love this one. This is as she describes it:

this is an octopus, a cats pillar. That is my name right there and a house. And this down below is a wooshpiper. It’s like a music who bo Ho who (in singing song fashion)

So there you have it

I was really amazed at this recent drawing she brought home on May 13th. The teacher said she did it all by herself. Amazing!
