Happy New Year 2012!

I can't imagine 2011 is over! Where did the time go?! I suppose every day flies by pretty quickly when you have to deal with a little toddler! Haha...!

We actually spent our New Year at the airport - flying back from Phoenix to Tulsa. But before that, we finally had a chance to put our new couch together. And of course, another big project from IKEA! Thankfully Graham was ready to lend a hand:
And unfortunately, it took a little longer since Graham misplaced a little tool that came with the instructions. When I was done with the tool, I did not realize that I needed it again so I let Graham play with it. Bad mistake! Anyhow, nothing a spanner couldn't take care of, but it obviously took a little longer. Phew!

Back to our day at the Sky Harbor Airport....

You wouldn't believe the check-in line that was at Terminal 4! It was at least a 2-hour long line! Thankfully Bobby had a fly-by pass and we literally jumped the queue and were able to check in within minutes! Yay to Daddy!!!
So, off to the gate. Graham got on the walk-scalator for the first time and really enjoyed it:
And... UP!
And then, a little snack by Starbucks and watching planes take off almost every minute!
And then, helping Daddy with the luggage (it didn't last for very long!)
The flight was only 2-hours long and Graham finally fell asleep in the middle of the flight.
Unfortunately, he woke up screaming just as we were about the descend and eventually, Graham just ended up sitting on the floor, by my feet - saying "no" to everything that we offered to him! Thankfully, a couple of laps up and down the plane helped and once we got back to our seat, Graham found a comfy spot with his blankie and finally fell asleep again. During all the commotion, Bobby reminded me why we were NOT flying back to Malaysia this year for Chinese New Year! :-P
