We went to Easter (Sun, April24) up in Fremont. Food as always was very yummy. Prime rib especially. Mommy learned that she does not like lamb. YUCK!
Tyler played with the boys and had fun finding eggs again. He was more excited because some of these eggs had money! Woohoo! Of course he spent the money buying cars. OMG, you would not believe how many cars that kid has. And he has a good memory too. At the store he will point out exactly which ones he already has and which ones he is missing.

Today was eBay's take your kids to work day. Tyler did VERY well considering he stayed for practically the entire day. Everyone was very excited to see him. A lot of my co-workers have watched him grow up, so seeing him walking and especially talking was very cool to them.
Tyler opened up quick right from the start. He started calling them aunty and uncle and everyone thought that was cute. After bothering people most of the morning, mommy had to fall back on the DVD player so she could get some work done.
Lunch wasn't a big hit for him. He didn't like their version of mac and cheese of the chicken fingers ... and mainly ate french fries. After that you could tell he was getting tired, but he didn't want to go home. So it was more coloring and DVD watching afterwards. At 3-ish the festivities started and he was re-energized. We at popcorn and watched the race cars, got a doggy balloon, and danced.
On the way home, he fell asleep in the car literally less than a minute of driving.
Emily has been loving her solid foods. This week she tried Oatmeal, apples and bananas. She's also being much more vocal. Although I don't recognize any words yet, I hear sounds. MMMMM is definitely there ... so I have high hopes her first word may be mama. :)

April 17 - April 23
You can definitely tell the laziness of mommy. This particular blog entry doesn't have much details, lol.
There really isn't much that happens during the week. Mommy and daddy both go to work while the kids are at school. Tyler is learning how to write his letters and read 3 letter words. Emily is rolling and can sit pretty well assisted. She is also trying various types of fruits and veggie solid foods.
Mommy has made it a point to try and learn how to use daddy's digital SLR camera. She's been reading up online and hopes to get nicer pictures of the kids.
Vinay's Bachelor party was Friday, April 22.
We took the kids to an Easter egg hunt on Sat April 23. Tyler rocked! His age group was 2 - 3 year olds and he ran fast and got lots of eggs. I think this helped to prepare him for Sunday.

April 10 - April 16
Tyler's spring break was this past week. Mommy and daddy were creative and both took sometime off to take care of him. Daddy was on duty first for Mon - Wed. He was off for half the time, so still needed to work some. Keep in mind he just got his new job, so PTO isn't exactly something he has a lot of.
Unfortunately for daddy, both kids had been coughing so Mommy had him take them to the doctor and WHAM ... Bronchitis!
One her medication Emily was able to go back to school ... Tyler spend the next to days with daddy. Mommy isn't even sure what they did, lol. But Tyler didn't complain and daddy didn't complain "much".
Wednesday afternoon/early evening ... Aunty Tammy flew in from Belgium and Uncle Scott flew in from Hawaii. What a nice surprise. Emily did very well with them. She didn't cry and even let both of them hold her.
While they were here ... we went to the Oakland Zoo, Fenton's Creamery, Olive Garden, Gilroy Outlet Mall, Six Flags Discovery Kingdom (the BIG boys), Children Discovery Museum (the kids and the girls) ... just to name the main places ...
It was nice to have visitors. We all wished they could have stayed longer. Tyler was very sad to see them leave on Sunday. Have a safe flight and see you guys again soon!

April 3 - April 9
We introduced carrots to Emily on Saturday. She loved it! So far so good. Doesn't look like she will be picky with food. However, I don't really want to jinx it. Tyler ate everything as an infant and then quickly became picky as a toddler.
We had dinner at the Murakami's on Sunday - Steak, shrimp and scallops. Always good eats and good times.
Week goes by and mommy doesn't write anything
Friday dinner was at Sonoma Chicken Coop. Dante is back from SoCal. He has moved back up here to the Bay ... great to have him back. Tyler didn't remember him, but quickly took to him at dinner.
Saturday was yet another Pump it up party for Ben, one of Tyler's school classmates. Oddly Tyler acted a bit shy at first, even if he knew quite a few kids there. Once he got warmed up he had a great time. Mommy spent most of her time carrying Emily in the carrier. She enjoyed watching the kids run wild. For the most part she was happy. Although she tried crying a few times when some of the parents came over to look at her, lol.
Saturday dinner was Buca De Beppo in Campbell with the Murakami's. Oh gosh! We didn't have a reservation, so we had to wait for 45mins to an hour. A LONG time for a toddler and an infant. Tyler quickly turned grouchy ... Emily got hungry and needed a bottle. Ahhhhh! Next time we will definitely need to make reservations.
