Serenity... 4.28.07

A picture is worth a thousand words, right? This is my definition of serenity...


This was my last picture at Botanical Gardens... I would've taken more pictures but I maxed out both of our CF cards.

A trip to Botanical Gardens...

We took a Sabbath day today with Abby's grandparents and aunt Soeun. We had beautiful weather and enjoyed the Cherry Blossom Festival. Parking was so scarce due to the festival that Abby was a little upset with us while we looked for parking... hope the beautiful flowers and trees made up for it!!! She was a happy camper most of the time... we're still not sure why the "JUAN" tulips made her cry. Perhaps the brightness of the color so up close?

Still lovin' the Jump-A-Roo...

Peek-a-Boo!

Coffee anyone?

Outfit from Hyo Sung and family for Christmas...

Took a few photos of Abby in her pretty dress after work... we did a little re-org of her closet today and realized some will probably not fit her if we wait. =(

Standing with just my hand for support.

semi-wink...

Full wink - learning to wink from her grandma...

Tooth #1 and soon to be peeking #2...

Abby this morning...

I woke up this morning to find Abby's face right next to mine... just like this!!! hee hee... after suppressing a giggle as much as possible, I grabbed the camera and got a few shots of her sleeping.

J & J Baby Oil...

New hat... getting ready for Botanical Gardens...

Trying to get her to wear her hat... she'll wear it this way, but off it goes when we pull down the rim.

Growing Up Gotti?

Here's the reference...

Unexpected pictures at Kiddie Kandids...

With the flooding in Wayne this past week, I was a little behind in my diaper shopping. After meeting up with Abby's grandparents and Aunt Soeun today, we headed over to Babies R Us to buy diapers. What we thought was going to be a quick run ended up being a few hours - taking pictures, diaper changing, eating, diaper changing, shopping, diaper changing... hee hee. Kiddie Kandids is having a promo right now where they give you a free 8x10 (plain picture) just for coming in. One of the KK salesperson told us about it. But wait! If you are interested, I have 4 vouchers that will give you a free 8x12 montage (a collage of 4 pictures) which is well over $25. It was unexpected, but Andrew and I are both glad she had the pictures taken - Abby was long overdue for a portrait. =) Here's some pictures of Abby from today... they're really fast with the online picture posting too!

Discovering as we go - Sleeping Tip #1

Abby just fell asleep... to snoring.

Andrew and I found out Abby falls asleep to the sound of snoring this weekend. On Saturday morning, Abby woke up as soon as we put her bottle in her mouth. Since she only drinks in her sleep, we instantly lay next to her and pretended to snore. Much to our surprise, she was fast asleep within minutes!!! (Jackpot!)

I do it!

Already, Abby insists on holding her water cup and drinking it by herself... good to know she still needs mommy... spilled some on the carpet though I didn't know it at the time.

Tummy Time - 4.4.07

It's been a long time since we've posted a tummy time picture... what a big difference!

Hi, Abby here!

Last week, Abby started standing all by herself against the wall. G-grandma & grandma has Abby doing all kinds of things while mommy & daddy are at work! ;)
She tried this out at the WELL yesterday and she got overwhelmed by the attention and began to cry.

Now she says "uhm-ma" which is Korean for mommy when she wants me to hold her. =)
She said "da-da" first, but not really referring to daddy.

Happy Easter!!!
