Uncle Ray: Looks like we've used up all of the leftovers.
Daddy: Oh no, what are we going to eat tomorrow?
PJ: Cake!
Mama the day before birth. Apparently we took a similar photo, with Babar, the day before PJ's birth.
At the hospital the day of E-lings birth. Being large and breech, like her brother and father, E-ling was a scheduled caesarean.
First photo of E-ling.
Mama and E-ling.
8 pounds and 15.6 ounces rounded up equals 9 pounds 0 ounces.
The vigorous scrubbing of the first bath shocked Daddy.
E-ling has long-narrow fingernails like Mommy. PJ and Daddy have short-wide fingernails.
PJ does not like to be forced to interact with E-ling. And sometimes, when she cries, he yells "NO". But most of the time he is his usual sweet, gentle self.
A two-year-old can only pose for so many photos before hiding behind a pillow.
Big brother and little sister.
Mama and E-ling.
My sweet, sweet family.
Spiderman.
Spiderman, Cat-woman, and 49'ers Cheerleader.
E-ling, future cheerleader?
Trick-or-Treating Crew.
Sydney is super chubby and happy.
Good natured jostling.
I think we'll see these expressions a lot when they both get in trouble later.
PJ watching TV.
PJ blowing out three candles on his birthday cupcake, with E-ling and Melissa in the background.
Guests at PJ's party.
The theme for PJ's 3rd birthday was the movie "UP", so we had a lot of balloons around, in addition to tying about 15 helium filled balloons to his cardboard house (thanks Uncle Will).
Sydney May Li-Shen Bowden asleep in Mama's arms.
Even through she's only two-months old, E-ling often sits down at the table with us for dinner.
Sunsets and smiles. Note that the towers of the Golden Gate Bridge are visible to the right of PJ, just above the railing.
E-ling caught with a perfect SPS (soul-penetrating-stare).
