2007 Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, we opened up our stockings and one present because Song couldn't wait any longer. He is like a little kid. He's been asking me from the day his present was delivered, if he could open it.

"I got 2 new pairs of earrings in my stocking. Finally, I get to take the ugly gold studs out. I had them in for a month now. I'm so excited!"

"Can you see the pretty pink rose earring? It's much shinier than the old one. Thank you Mommy and Daddy!"

"Look at this cute Janie and Jack outfit that Aunt Vivi got me. The crop pants go well with the pink boots I got from my Aunt Nan and Uncle Hoon. I look like I'm off to Paris. I hope to go there one day. I know Mommy wants to go too!"

"Oui oui. I'm pretty in pink. My new pink earrings match my outfit too!"

"Thank you Aunt Vivi. Oh this reindeer shirt is part of my gift from my Aunt Suki, Uncle Dan and Grandma Park in CA. Thank you again."

"Alex and Lauren take a quick pose."

"One day, Lauren is going to babysit me. I like her. She looks like her Mommy, Aunt Vivi. I think Alex looks like his Daddy, Uncle David."

"Daddy, let me help you open your present. You're taking forever since Mommy taped it up like Fort Knox. She didn't want you to peek at your gift. She knows your trick about opening up the bottom and then taping it back."

"Daddy, don't bother me. I'm trying to help you open your present."

"Ah...my job is done. Now, I'll play with the ribbon."

Joey: "Thank you for my new friend. I love it."

Joey: "How many more pictures do I have to pose for? Can I play with my friend now."

Joey: "I like to play rough with my friend."
