October 4: I did some shopping over the weekend and saw many stores selling fur hats and down coats. Really? In Singapore?
October 4: Yesterday, I had tea with my little friend Zeyad. He is a baby and so soft and cute.
October 6: Yesterday, I went to the Science Center with my friend Daniel. He had a cool hat.
October 6: Tomorrow I am off to the US. I will be traveling for 21 hours! But luckily my parents have packed lots of snacks, books and toys for me.
October 12: I made it in! I had a great time reading and playing during the first flight and slept albeit fitfully during the second flight.
October 17: My first weekend in DC was quite eventful: my aunt Abby got married.
October 17: The weekend began with a dinner on Friday night where I met the groom's family and got to eat some yummy food. As you know, I like food!
October 17: Then there was a bagel and lox brunch at my grandma's house.
October 17: After brunch, my aunt and soon-to-be uncle took me to the zoo. Wheeee!
October 17: That evening we went to the rehearsal dinner where I got to eat some tasty Lebanese food and flit from table to table flirting with everyone.
October 17: Me, my parents and AUNT SUZA (one of my three favorite aunts!) at the Lebanese restaurant.
October 17: At the wedding, I get to be a flower boy strewing petals down the aisle. Here I am practicing with shredded newspaper.
October 17: What did they do to mama's hair? Am I next?
October 17: Oooo la la. I am going to have beautiful hair for the wedding. The girls got their make-up done too but I think I am naturally cute.
October 17: Isn't the bride beautiful in her red dress (and her sister too)?
October 17: Off to the wedding! [the wedding was actually on 10.10.10]
October 17: The wedding began with a procession and I scattered the rose petals like a pro.
October 17: The ceremony was beautiful and delicious (I got my snack just as it started)! And I only shrieked once or twice!
October 17: After the ceremony we went to dinner. Mmmmm Spanish food. And I got to do my skit which, I am told, was very cute and funny.
October 17: The skit began with my dad making a computer science talk. I then came in signing ball. And my dad realized that he had the wrong venue.
October 17: Dad then began juggling the balls and I signed ball ball again (at my mam's request). My silly parents then gave me all the balls to juggle!
October 17: I then did a few of my animal signs. Mam then reminded me I was at a wedding...
October 17: ...so I did the sign for "bride & groom circling 7 times" turn turn turn! And "breaking the glass under the Chuppah" stomp stomp stomp!
October 17: My mama then said Aunt Abby and I did the sign for beautiful (because aunt Abby is beautiful)! She then said wedding and I blew kisses.
October 17: Finally I did the baby sign when she said honeymoon. Isn't that what honeymoons are for? I want a cousin pleeeeeaase.
October 17: After the dinner, we danced and danced and I was quite the little star.
October 17: What a wonderful way to celebrate my 15 months birthday!
October 17: The next day, I helped aunt Abby and uncle Ron open their presents.
October 17: After all the fun and craziness were over, I got to read my favorite books with Aunt Suza.
October 17: I also got to play the piano with my grandmother.
October 17: I had corn on the cob for the first time. Corn good - but I am still working on the cob.
October 17: I had a great time picking leaves for my collage (though I also enjoyed throwing them all on the ground and starting all over again).
October 17: .... and again. There are so many leaves to pick!
