Today Aislee was registered as Japanese citizenship at Consulate-General of Japan in San Francisco. She has dual citizenship now and will need to choose USA or Japan by 22 years old.

Aislee will not be adding socks as one of her "picks".  Apparently she is not a fan of this type of clothing.  After much crying and screaming, I finally was able to put a pair of socks on her for the first time.  Since the weather is starting to get cooler I thought she'd prefer to have warmer feet, but 12 minutes after putting them on her, she managed to get one sock off by herself and was using her toes to pick the other one off.

Luckily I had my camera phone in my hand to take this picture, because I couldn't stop laughing...   Where do babies learn these skills?

Here's a recent photo of Aislee bundled up in her Graco carseat from her aunt, uncle, and grandmama.  We were on our way to Campbell's Farmers' Market to buy watermelon, pluots, and the best hummus from Aqui (also located in downtown Campbell).

She's growing quickly and is fluctuating around 10 pounds...still feeding every 2.5 to 3 hours.
