Little Mermaids

We joined the Miller Family YMCA a month ago and we are swimming there 3-4 times a week, mostly in the evening during weekdays. The girls attend beginner's swimming lessons every Saturday, hopefully they will know how to swim by the end of the Summer. Here are some shots of our little mermaids at the pool.

Saturday afternoon at the Oaks

We've been invited to Caitlyn San's 7th birthday party at the Moorpark College teaching zoo. The girls had lots of fun meeting some old friends and enjoyed a delicious lunch. After the party, we went to the Oaks and the girls were acting as models for daddy again... This time, daddy was testing his new Micro 4/3 camera and the result was excellent! Check out a few pictures taken at the mall...

More testing on daddy's new toys

After testing the E-PL1 and 5D, daddy took the girls to the Peppertree Park in the late afternoon and test out the new Fz-28 with it's Leica Vario-Elmarit. While it's 720 HD video was less impressive than the ZS-3, it's still images are very sharp at all focal lengths, colors are vivid too. By the way, both girls had their hair permed 1st time couple weeks ago!

Testing daddy's new toys...

Daddy was in the camera shopping spree last few weeks... Besides over a dozen of different digital point & shoots and DSLRs we already have, we now have full-frame and Micro 4/3 cameras with lots of very nice lenses! Daddy has done some candid shots with his new E-PL1 and 5D with his two favorite models and the result was stunning, more photo sessions must be scheduled with his two supermodels!

Happy Mommy's Day!

It's Mother's Day Sunday! We didn't do anything specific to celebrate because everyday is the Mother's Day in our hearts.

Erica's school had a Mother's Day Program on Friday early afternoon, all mothers and grand mothers were invited. The class sang 7 songs to celebrate the Mother's Day. Both girls brought home arts and crafts that they have made in their schools specially for their mom, it was very sweet!

Sunday afternoon at the Getty Center

Erica won the 1st place of 1st grade drawing competition last week, the price was a free parking ticket at the Getty Center. Both girls wanted us to take them there this weekend.

It's a very sunny Sunday, a perfect day to drive down there and spend a couple hours. There's a Da Vinci show which we all enjoyed very much.

We found a shaded area at the lawn and took some pictures to share with everyone...

Vivian lost 2 front teeth!

It's been a while since we last post something on the blog, everybody has been very busy but we are all doing well except Vivian. Vivian's front teeth has been bugging her for a while, she has infection on the root of her left front tooth and a big chip has fallen off from her right front tooth when she was eat gum ball. We took her to the dentist and the dentist has suggested to get both front teeth extracted. Our little girl was very brave and she had the teeth taken out yesterday, mommy was waiting outside at the waiting room in the dentist office. Today is a brand new day for Vivian, the pain has gone and she's happy camper again! Daddy took some pictures of his sweet girls right before sunset.
