<p>And they had other tricks not captured by film/Iphone:</p>
<p>Ollie thought it was absolutely hilarious to place different objects in front of Joe’s office door. He didn’t even wait for Joe to come out, just the act of doing it was enough to entertain him. Seriously, he almost peed his pants laughing at his 4-year-old cleverness.</p>
<p>Noah thought he was pretty brilliant by switching things from my Joe’s night stand to mine and vice versa. He also did the same with our closets. Heh. Very cute. </p>
<p>I love my life so very, very much. </p>

<p>We’re so happy to welcome Simon Lewis Cheng into our family! He was born on June 8, 2010, weighing in at a healthy 8 lbs, 7 oz.</p>
<p>Ten fingers, ten toes, and everything else appears to be in working order as well!</p>

<p>Noah and Ollie are doing great with their new baby brother, especially Ollie, who takes his new role of “big brother” very seriously.</p>
<p><a href="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC7958.jpg"><img style="display: inline" title="_DSC7958" alt="_DSC7958" src="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC7958_thumb.jpg" width="448" height="298" /></a></p>
</p>
<p>We’re so thankful to God for blessing us with another amazing little person to take care of. Simon has already brought so much joy into our home!</p>

<p>I thought the Easter Bunny did a pretty awesome job this year. Actually…I didn’t even try to pretend. When Noah said “Thanks Mommy”, I just said “You’re welcome.” Honestly…the Easter bunny kinda creeps me out. </p>
<p><a href="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc6852.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="_DSC6852" border="0" alt="_DSC6852" src="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc6852-thumb.jpg" width="351" height="244" /></a> </p>
<p>Noah got his first pair of ‘safety scissors’ and wow, was Ollie jealous. Told Ollie he’d get a pair next year and that didn’t go over so well. So, they get equal scissors time now, and to Ollie’s credit, he handles them QUITE well. I was impressed.</p>
<p><a href="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc7130.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="_DSC7130" border="0" alt="_DSC7130" src="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc7130-thumb.jpg" width="354" height="240" /></a>&#160;</p>
<p>This was the ONE piece of candy in their Easter baskets. I know…I’m so cruel. Sorry….but most of that Easter chocolate is NOT fair trade, and since I am Miss ANTI-slavery, that’s just how it goes kids.</p>
<p><a href="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc7121.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="_DSC7121" border="0" alt="_DSC7121" src="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc7121-thumb.jpg" width="360" height="524" /></a> </p>
<p>I, thankfully, did not have to hide eggs, since the kids were invited to a joint birthday party the day before Easter for their friends Meadow &amp; Max. They both have extremely talented moms. Here’s just a sample of the decor…</p>
<p><a href="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc6986.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="_DSC6986" border="0" alt="_DSC6986" src="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc6986-thumb.jpg" width="358" height="529" /></a> </p>
<p>Noah, sadly, now POSES for pictures. Ugh.</p>
<p><a href="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc6877.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="_DSC6877" border="0" alt="_DSC6877" src="http://chengblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/dsc6877-thumb.jpg" width="357" height="522" /></a> </p>
<p>Waiting patiently…for ONCE! </p>

<blockquote><p>“While in Vancouver, I saw this cute pastry shaped like a banana, and it has big lettering: BANANA on it.&#160; I bought a box of two for Noah and Ollie. </p>
<p>To let Noah practice his alphabet, I said, &quot;Noah, what does it say?&quot;</p>
<p>Noah ran his pointer through the letters, and read without hesitation, &quot;not a hot dog&quot;.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>(Joe took this picture by the way. Pretty great, huh?)</p>
