Stanley Park Miniature Train

One afternoon we just decided to go for a walk in Stanley Park. We've lived here for so many years but have never really taken a full walk around and explored that humungous park. We also rode on the miniature train, which was pretty fun actually. The family price made it worth it (compared to individual pricing). Jasmine really liked the "ding, ding, ding" of the train whenever we went over a bridge of water.

For some reason, Jasmine always slouches in her stroller. She seems to lean back in her chair, move her butt as far down in the seat as possible and stick her feet up:

Wheels on the Bus

Oops, I drafted this posting like 2 months ago, but forgot to post it up. We haven't been to Brentwood in quite a while, after an incident happened at the kids playground. Some kid had an "accident" (had a #1) there which kind of made me disgusted so we haven't been there since.

We went to Brentwood Mall again, so Jasmine could blow off some energy. We used to be so scared when she climbed onto the slide on her own (we'd follow her like a hawk in case she tipped over) but not anymore. She's a pro at climbing, with practice on our climb and slide at home.

PNE visit

For my work at BC Cancer Agency, we had a booth at the PNE this year and I had to help out on the first day. Today, the admission was free in the morning so Richard, my father-in-law and Jasmine, they all went to check it out. They only spent a few hours there, as it was hot, super crowded and food/drinks were expensive. Here are some pics of Jasmine, clowning around:

Amazing Race Vancouver!

Some of our friends were talking about doing an Amazing Race event and we thought that it'd be fun to see what it was like. We had no intention of being in the top ranks, considering this was our first time doing this... (and I'm 3 months pregnant).

The tasks took us all over downtown, Chinatown and Granville Island, all done by foot or public transit (no car or taxi). I think we ran 90% of the way and it took us approximately 2.5 hours in total. When running to the final destination, we thought that we had no chance of winning (we were the last team out of the starting spot as we planned each step of our way). As it turned out, we won the race! It felt weird, but at the same time, we just couldn't believe it! Here we are, after we finished the last challenge (completing a jigsaw puzzle).

Play Date with Adyson

Adyson, Uncle Rick and Auntie Wrency came for a visit this weekend and we had a really fun time playing together. When they first arrives, Adyson just woke up from her nap in the car so she didn't want to play with me but after a bit, she was running around and taking all my toys out! Although we don't play with the same toys together (can't share yet) but I still had fun. Here's me and Adyson sitting on Uncle Rick's lap.

Feeding Beeps...

We are still having daily fights, trying to feed Jasmine. She is just not an eater. Even just getting her into her high chair, we have to bribe her with little cheese fishy biscuits before she's willing to sit still. And after she sits in her chair, we have to try to sneak a bite here and there into her mouth. This is what she looks like most of the time...

Eva and Dennis' Wedding

We attended a family wedding on August 8th; it was a perfect day for an outdoor wedding. Slightly sunny/cloudy and small breeze. Congratulations Eva and Dennis.
Here's me and my beautiful sistas, my Dad and Aunt Suzanna.
