Spectacular New Year

It sucks this year that Grandma couldn't make it to celebrating New Years at her own daughter's house, instead she is sitting at home with her home aide.  Sam finally got a family portrait., but it didn't seem right without the main character.  This is the person who started and hold the Huang family together.  Because of her, everyone had a smile on their faces.  The new generation (babies) will continue with the tradition.  I love all my nieces and nephews: Tian Ming, Kyle, Grace, Karina, Chadden, Evan, Derrick, Emily, Tina, Scarlett, and Cody.  My arms hurt from holding on to Emily, Tina, Evan, and Karina.  Every baby enjoyed using their head to pounding against my chest.  I laughed when I asked my dad to hold on to Emily and Karina , but these  baby girls kept pulling my hair and crying for me.  I am not a mommy, and I don't have enough strength to carry.

Evan loves mom.  All he did when I hold him was giggled and pulled my glasses.  Yeah... no, my glasses are way too expensive.

Evan just lean his head towards mom and gave her a kiss on a cheek.

                                                          Look at Cody, Grace, and Scarlett.
                                                       Cody is only in Kindergarten and look how tall he is.
                                                        Scarlett is tall for a 4th grader.
                                                           Grace is only in the 3rd grade.

Karina is way too cute and she is only 1 year old and 1 month.

Aunt Wenzi and Sammie love you very much.

Aww.... Mom and son.

One big family. Righttt, Chadden and Karina never get along.  They fight.  It funny to watch them fight but when Karina reflects, dang...better walk opposite direction.  She punches, throws, screams, and yank hair and glasses.  Chadden is still jealous of his father holding on to Karina.

Ha!.. Mom told me that the day when Kevin was brought home from the hospital, I was one jealous baby.  I controlled my dad and didn't allowed him holding Kevin for a time; I separated them.  I even threw pillows at him whenever he cried from his nap.  Mom included that I was always afraid of her, but bullied my dad and that's because he was easy to picked on.  He obeyed me and that's was because I was a spoiled brat, only child before Kevin popped out from mom's stomach.

Chadden... you put a smile on my face.  Friendly reminder- never cut my hair again.  I will leave it long again.

For some reason I got tire of holding Evan so mom took it over.  Evan seems to enjoy mom holding him. He even slobber on cookies (the blue bag that he is holding).  Oh well, baby are cleaner than me and they smell like baby powder.

Smile , Family.  Say Cheese.  Why is my mom hiding?
