Due to popular request, here is another excellent movie. Enjoy!
Here is a little snapshot from some of the critical parts of Zach's life.here are my two sweethearts at Valentine's Day. I don't know who is cuter.Zach was born 24 days early, but everything was perfectly fine with him except Jaundice. So he had to lay under this light table in out apartment all day long except for eating time. Some times this is terrible on parents because the baby cries so much, but Zach loved it! He just sprawled out and thought he was at the beach.
This was the blessing day! I was nervous because I wanted to do a good job, and everything was fine. We had a little party at our apartment after church.
This was Zach's favorite trip -- Zion National Park. We went there for my birthday in November last year. There were lots of good trails for strollers and we all had a great time. The weather was awesome and so was the scenery.
Now this is Zach's favorite toy, the Super Saucer. He is entertained in this for a long time and loves the time on his feet. He is very observant of every action and studies everything that Angela and I do. He also really likes the songs from "High School Musical" thanks to Aunt Lisa, and it is a key to calmness. Lisa dances and sings him the songs whenever she has a chance. He also likes the computer and hitting the buttons just like his parents. Cells phones are also a favorite. He listens to the ring tones and sucks on the phone! That might not be a good idea because the moisture ruined Angela's phone. Luckily, it was time for her to get a new one! Thats all for now. Hope you enjoyed!
Well, I don't know how many of you know this, but I did go on a trip to Guatemala in February to visit Mayan sites with my professor and classmates. If you want more details you can talk to me about it. But here is a little synopsis. Above is Palenque. It is a large site and one of the first discovered. There is a large tower in the center of the city (King Benjamin maybe) and it was absolutely phenomenal. The sites absolutely take your breathe away.
Here I am at a place where they have the pottery on display and actually let you hold it!! This big pot is from the "preclassic" (about 500 BC) and was on the bottom shelf. As we were taking the picture they told me a spider crawled out of the pot and I tried hard not to scream or drop the pot, hence the cheesy smile!
Another great part of the trip was to see the Rain Forest. Ever since I was a little kid I had a fasination with the Rain Forest. I did reports on the forest and jaguars (which we also saw, but in a zoo). But this was an awesome chance to interact with the wild. Oh there were also lots of monkeys.
This was the Mision Palenque, our favorite hotel. We were really ruffing it if you know what I mean...













So who does Zach look like more, Mom or Dad. (If you can't tell who is Tim and who is Ang, that is funny, we'll just make you suffer through it) So add your vote and we will see if Mom or Dad wins. Hope you like Zach's picture!

More experimenting

I wanted to experiment with adding video. If it works well we may do that alot. Try this one!

We joined the Bandwagon!

We are now on the web. Even though Angela and I should be a part of the technology generation, we are somewhat technologically impaired. But here we are and we are excited. Stay tuned for future posts from Angela and I.
