OCTOBER 2008


I turned 5 months in Brazil!


Mommy and I hung out in Rio for another week before we went
to the US to meet my dad and the rest of my family that lives there.


We met Eric and auntie Cathy at Ipa Bebê in Ipanema. We had lots of fun at the beach!


This is auntie Mariana and her son, João. They are our cousins!


Taking a nap while sucking my fingers!



Hanging out with grandma Celia just before we left Brazil


So after a really long trip we finally arrived in the US!
Daddy picked us up at the airport in Chicago.
My daddy's mom, sister, aunt and grandmas live in the Quad Cities.
We drove there from Chicago.



That's me and grandma Sharon

Who do I look like the most, mommy or daddy?

Having my first solid food, some pear. It was funny!
(but I really started eating after going back to Singapore)

We went back to Chicago and stayed with our friends, the Sutter's! It was a lot of fun! Here it's me and mommy hanging out with Matthew and Zach!



After a fun time in Illinois we all went to Arizona for the last part of our trip! We spent the first night with grandpa Tim and grandma Crystal in Scottsdale then we all went to Prescott, AZ where my dad grew up.
