Catch up

Has it been 2 months since my last post?! Yikes. Well, to sum it all up, Tesshin is doing great. He is a very active 2 year old. We went in for a height/weight check (since he's still below the 1 percentile range) a few weeks ago. He weighs 21 pounds and is 32 inches tall. Yay! Finally some growth. He's been 18 pounds since he was 1. October kinda flew by, especially since we've been going back and forth to San Diego to help my mom. We were able to stick around for Halloween. Tessho and Tesshin went to the pumpkin patch with the Fu's earlier in the month and then on Halloween day we went back to Kidspace with the Fu's for their annual celebration. That is a really cool place to take kids. Later that day, we went over to the Huegle's for dinner and trick-or-treating. Tesshin dressed up as Thomas the Tank Engine. He didn't like the costume at first but he got used to it. He put on the engineer hat for a few pictures and immediately tore it off. He really got into the "Halloween" thing once he got the concept of getting candy after saying Trick-or-Treat. Too bad he never got to eat any of his candy. There's plenty of years for that.

His latest obsession is Monsters Inc and Toy Story 2 is not far behind. Can you believe he's watching these movies from the VCR, not DVD? At least they're getting some use instead of collecting dust. It's nice that he can sit through an entire movie without fuss or getting bored. I think he's watched it at least over 100 times already (Sometimes he'll watch it 3 times in one day). He's watched it so much he can follow along and say certain lines in the movie. We went to Disneyland on Nov 11 (Veteran's Day). Tessho and I had the day off so we took Tesshin for his first time. We hadn't been there in about 10 years. I know it's been that long since DCA is celebrating 10 years and we haven't gone since it's been open. Geez, what have I been doing? Anyway, they have a Monsters Inc ride. While we were waiting in line, we kept passing the Monsters Inc trash bins and he would point to the bin and he'd say "Monsters Inc eye". All in all it was a great first day at Disneyland. We're excited to have annual passes, too. We can't wait to go back and see all of the Holiday decorations.
