Happy Chinese New Year Everyone.
Today marks the beginning of Chinese New Year 2012, The Year of the Dragon. Mommy had some plans for the wee one today, but Emily stayed home sick. Poor baby! She has a very croupy sounding cough which started yesterday, and it seems to be worse when she is lying down, so last night was rough!
Mommy and Emily had a very low key day at home, with Emily having a few strawberry Panda cookies to celebrate with. We will have more surprises as the holiday unfolds. I guess we are lucky it lasts more than one day.
How did mommy and Emily spend their day off??? Lots of movies, lots of movies on the video camera from our time in China, and of course painting Emily's cute little toes pink and green!
Tomorrow Emily will be taking some treats for her class that she was supposed to take today. She will be giving each child a pair of chopsticks, a package of chocolate panda cookies, and a lucky red envelope each containing a nickel.
Enjoy the pictures, and I am sure there will be more to come as Chinese New Year continues!
