Happy 4 Months!

Yay, she's hit the four month mark!

Milestones:
* Full head control
* Grabs toys
* Recognizes my voice/face
* Sleeping at least a six hour stretch at night
* Laughing
* Squealing/shrieking like a madwoman. Guess she loves the sound of her voice?

She's 13 lbs 6 oz and almost 25 in long. Not quite there but hopefully soon :) We went to visit the Easter bunny to take some pictures @ Fashion. No crying yet no smiles. She had that what are you doing to me look...classic one that the hubs does all too often.



Of course I had to jump in for a shot for the scrapbook :P



Another one w/ the cousins. My sis and I have yet to take a pic with the kids...why!!!

I can tell it will be a beautiful weekend...have a great one!

Rub a dub dub

Yesterday was bath time, and both Lila and I love this time. I love it because she loves it and it calms her, and she loves it because...who knows why? She loves water unlike her mommy who can't swim. I have one of those Korean ahjuma bodies, ya know? I can swim under water, paddle like a dog, but I can not free style for the life of me. After two strokes, I start sinking and can't seem to keep afloat.

Anyhow, I was super excited to use this visor to protect her ears. I'm paranoid about water getting inside her ears...something I prob got from my mil.



She wasn't too thrilled about having this big floppy thing around her head but I love it. One of the best inventions made for someone like me.

To be young again

I'm approaching the 30's...yikes! Not like it's a bad thing, but it just got me thinking have I done everything I wanted to do in my 20's? Or the real question is what can I not do in my 30's that I can still get away with in my 20's? Am I just rambling?

I spent hours on end reading old cards and letters from my college days. I opened some old boxes I picked up from my mom's house, and I was so excited to see my old stash of letters. It was the highlight of my night! Gosh the things my friends and I wrote about..."you're so buckwild", "i'm napster.com", "live it up, you're only 21 once. no more hiding in the bathroom at le prive"!!!! awww that was the last thing i read - my 21st birthday card from my girlfriends. And yes, there was a time my friend and I hid in the bathroom of a club because we were underage, and the Alcohol Crackdown people (forgot their official name) came to check people's ids. We were so terrified thinking we would go to jail. I still remember what I wore that night - a white tank top with tulle spaghetti straps. Whoa..scary!

Anyways with all this reminiscing, I realized I need a change. I've decided to get highlights instead of my favorite...magic straight. I'm excited because I think I've done it twice in my life, so that's my way of feeling young again.

Weeks of good food

Won is a good eater, but with certain foods he just won't touch like Thai and Dim Sum. All I know is he's missing out! For the past 3.5 years, I've had to eat Thai and Chinese without him...may it be with my friends or family or coworkers but never with him! I craved Pad Thai and Chow Fun noodles during my pregnancy and always had to get take out separately from him.

This week was filled with yummy food. Thai last week, Caesar's Mongolian Beef Buffet yesterday (similar to Genghis Khan at the mall), and Dim Sum today. ooooohhh yummy! I haven't had Shrimp Shumai for years, and the Trader Joe's Frozen Shumai doesn't cut it. My lunch dates have been with my sis and the twins, but it makes it easy because they follow Lila's schedule so I can go in and out.

Twins amusing Lila so mama can eat!


Her new fave going out toy:


At this rate, these hip hop classes are doing nothing for me since I'm not eating as healthy as I should be. I hate it..i love food too much..
