It’s good to be back in the US. There’s a new job, new car, new appliances, but the same cute kid.

Lots of pics from the month and a half Cynthia and Belle spent in Minnesota and California (I was also there some of the time) – plus an overdue video of my dad and brother braving the narrow entrances of the Viet Cong tunnels at Cu Chi.

I’ve posted a big backlog of pics to the gallery including Belle’s pics from last month and probably too many from a trip to Vietnam and Cambodia.

It’s been a fantastic first year for Belle, and we’re have more and more fun with her every day. Enjoy the pics and vids of her birthday party and other adventures this month. Thanks to all the friends and family who made it special.

11 Months

Time is flying. Belle has transformed in the month since she started crawling – her body has become longer and leaner, and her attitude is more adventurous. She’s realized that she can influence the world around her a bit, and get’s frustrated when she can’t do exactly what she wants. She pointed and called me “Dadt” when I came back from a business trip, lets go and stands momentarily unassisted, and feeds herself the small pieces of food Cynthia has cut up for her.

Here are the 11 month pics with lost of pictures of Nick and Fergus including Nick’s first birthday:

Cynthia’s mom visited last week. We did some Taipei sightseeing, and went down to the beach and aquarium in Kenting, the southernmost tip of Taiwan for a couple of nights.

I continued the tradition with another highlight video:

10 Months

pat — Tue, 28 Feb 2012 12:00:10 +0000

Took advantage of the 4 day weekend in Taiwan to post some 10 month pics, with special guests Fergus and Nic. Belle and her two teeth are doing well, when she’s not being oddly but completely terrified by mom’s purple exercise ball or empty 5- gallon water jugs rolling towards her.

I also added a video highlighting Belle’s 10 month skills.
