I need to post more photos.
These are photos I took. We decided against getting them at CVS/Walgreens/[insert retail store here] because they look horrible (they couldn't get a good shot of Hannah - she wouldn't sit still on the uncomfortable stool) and are overpriced for 2 photos. Making them myself, I could take a ton of Hannah, pick the good ones, and crop them down. Then you just put 6 to a 4x6 sheet and print it for a couple of nickles or dimes at [cheap 1-hr photo store (Walmart for us)] and they turn out sooo much better!We're going to visit my grandma in Taiwan for her 80th B-day (in Sept). My mom & aunties are going too. It'll be fun! I'm really looking forward to it. It's too bad that daddy has to work so he can't come with us, but we're glad he's working hard to take care of us!
I haven't been back to Taiwan since the mish - that's a long time. We had to expedite both of our passports. For baby b/c I kept on forgetting to get her one. Mine b/c it expires within 6 months after our travel date, so I needed a new one that had a much later expiry. And since so much has happened during the 1st half of 2007, I didn't think to prepare for our trip till after we moved. It all worked out though because my aunt R applied for her passport 'non-expedited' months ago and still hasn't gotten it. We got our passports express mail - super quick around 2-2.5 weeks from applying for them. I guess you get what you pay for.

Hey, nice pictures, Grace! Your baby is a CUTIE! :) It's coming back to me now. So was that back around '99. Geez, I can't believe how time flies.
Good idea on the passport pictures. I think most people just assume that you HAVE to have them done professionally. Also, it's ridiculous that they take so long to process them that you have to pay so much extra to have them expedited. Lame.
I'm glad that you were able to find me, Grace. I'm going to be visiting here often. It'd be sweet if you posted about what you've been doing for the past several years. ;)
Hey, I didn't notice the new family pictures on the side-bottom. Great pictures. How did you meet your husband?
The passport photos turned out great!
BTW: Stay safe with the tropical storms and hurricanes that look to be possibly heading your way.
jerin, i'm hoping to do a family blog too (like you do - you have two. i think it's a good idea). i just started with hannah's blog b/c i felt too many precious moments were going undocumented by me (via journaling). but for now, i'm focusing on getting hannah's up and the way i like.
