Parties

C-bao was at a couple of birthday parties in January with her buddies from the Rainbow Dolphins, her class at preschool. This is the age where the birthday parties still involve everyone from class -- which is fun for the kids, but obviously a load for all parents of 4-year old birthday boys and girls.

At one party, the facility had some nice basketball rims. C-bao's immediate instinct was to dunk on them, something C-Pop heartily approved of.

In the other there were some climbing walls, and C-bao made it all the way up without assistance. All of her monkey bar work at school has strengthened those forearms nicely.

She also got to try a zip line. Frankly she could have done it without the assistance, especially as it was only a couple of feet off the ground.

Much of the time though was spent running around chasing her friends and vice versa, which was just fine with our little one.

Sun & Sweets

C-bao absolutely loved her time in Mexico. Then again, with endless amounts of good food, sun, swimming and family all around, what was there not to love?

Here are a few moments in the sun with her various family members, including sister K-bao, her cousins J-Cuz and K-K, and various uncles and aunties.

While C-bao hasn't fully embraced the water, she enjoys splashing around, as long as she is safely sitting on the stair or C-Pop is around to hold her.

Of course, the best part of it was the unlimited dessert!
