2---RJ Turns Two---2

RJ turned two years old last Saturday. We celebrated by taking him to the Adventure Aquarium. RJ had fun petting the sharks, and watching the jellyfish and rays, anemones and clown fish, grouper, great white and hammerhead sharks...even a hippopotamus.

Later we went home and had some birthday cake and special cupcakes. We were happy his friend Ari (& Ari's Mom/Dad & Grandmother), grandad RJ and nauni, uncle Tim and aunt Emma and cousins Avery & Emily could join us.

RJ has had a busy year. Since his last birthday, RJ started eating real food, he crawled, moved from Hastings, ny to Princeton, nj, walked, swam in the pool by himself (with a swim vest), started school, recites the entire alphabet and numbers 1-20 (2 out of 5 trys ;)), developed a vocabulary of about 50 words (English & Chinese), and a dozen phrases and made a lot of new friends.

RJ has been really healthy. RJ's favorite activites include playing with his friends at school, swinging on the swingset and being outdoors, playing guitar and taking baths. RJ had a fun happy second birthday !
