| Really quick post- Can anyone recommend a good day care in Irvine? Let me know!! Thanks!! | | |
| it's been so long xanga... I found a new love... yes, Facebook:).. I'm not much of a blogger, so I just post pictures on Facebook. But I still like to visit my some of my favorite xanga sites:) We're at Bryan's parents right now, so it has really been great. We have this routine down. Bryan's mom takes Isabella when she first wakes up at like 6-630am and they play together till her first nap- *sigh*.. i get to sleep in!!! Isabella is growing big and strong! She's standing on her own now... sometimes even for 10 sec. at a time!:) But it's amazing... She changes so much everyday that it's almost hard to keep track of everything! Some funny things she does these days: shaking her head when she doesn't want something, saying "kka-koong" ( peek-a-boo) whenever we play peekaboo- or at least she always copies us, standing on her own, crawling really fast... Now that she has 3 &1/2 teeth (one top tooth is just breaking in)...I decided I would "brush" her teeth. She's never seen a toothbrush before.. but from the very first time,the minute I start bringing it towards her face, she scrunches her face, closes her mouth really tight, turns her face and tries to run away... hahaha.. Bryan and I laughed so hard... we recorded it, I'll try to post it... Even though it's been a bit tough, moving from Maryland to California, trying to get readjusted, find jobs, and just plant our feet back down here... it's been good to see Isabella change and grow so much, interacting with family and friends... I leave you with just a few pictures of Isabella these days:) At Ihop- she can now feed herself- well kind of... :) at lwcc children's:).. that face is so funny- like she's smelled something bad..haha
Gymboree Play class! So fun...we both had lots of fun
And last but not least, typical Isabella face:)

| Wow, it's been a long time!
So some updates:
I'm done with school!! Well, at least the work part. I just have to be present in class till Dec. Oh well.. but I'm done!!! Yay!
Isabella is 6 months now! She's eating oatmeal, sweet potato, and peas now!! It's hilarious because she literally gags when she tries the new food. Okay, maybe it's bad to say that it's funny when my baby gags- but you know what I mean- it's cute...:) She has this fluffy monkey that we put in her crib... She uses it as a pillow now...:) She's teething majorly so she's a slobbery one. She also seems to have favorite books. If I read a book she doesn't like, she turns away, looks up at me, and makes cranky noises. The minute I read another book, she is so focused and flails her arms and legs with glee!! Bossy Bear is one of her favs:) haha
And another big one...:)
We're moving back to LA!!!!!
We're super excited....Bryan's waiting on Fuller and I'm looking for a job:) Isabella will be in the care of Bryan's mom, so I am SOOO happy about that.
I think it will be sometime in February when we actually move... we'll see:) We're still planning it out...
For those of you checking Isabella's website- Yes, it's not working. Here's the new domain name: http://web.mac.com/metonym/iWeb/ISABELLAYKIM/home.html
Now for recent pictures...
I've been trying to dress her up in skirts...:) She so looks like bryan here..:)
 Her eyes are always full of such wonder...:) 
Bunny ears:) 
At a recent wedding- i finally got to dress her up!! 
I tied this headband on her, and it totally reminded us of this poster..hehe:) 
Night out with Jean & Paul- I think this is the first time Bryan & I went out for fun w/o Isabella- Thomas graciously offered to watch her :) 
Alrighty then... until next time! | | |
| Hello Hello- so I started school this week...:) man, I'm so ready to be done!!! Two classes, one at night, one on Saturday morning- not too bad. They're both finance classes, but should be worth it since I'm learning about stocks and stuff:) hopefully I'll feel like I've learned something from business school..hehe:)
So we left Isabella home with a babysitter for the first time this Wednesday. I was all sad and worried. But she was wonderful and went right to sleep without crazy crying. I missed her so much even though I was only gone for 3hrs. hehe
She is becoming more and more animated- bryan and I have uber fun with her:) I think we kiss her like 1000 times a day..no joke:) our teeth hurt from grinding them too much..haha... we are sooo first time parents...
anywho, Halloween is coming up and we are so excited to dress her up. haha.. it's not like she knows she's dressed up... it's really for us...:).. sooo any suggestions?? we are totally into animals, but we just haven't picked one yet.
I think this is supposed to be a dog:) 
then there's this one.. 
hmmm... these are the only ones we've seen so far... gotta keep looking:)
That's it for now!
a hello to her grandparents...

| Yay! we're back from LA... whew. It was a gooood trip but also a bit tiring. But it was so much fun! Thanks friends for making time for us! We'll be back in December:)
Isabella is still adjusting to the time change, but hopefully she'll be sleeping normally tonight.
So.. I got my perm:) and I love it!! aahh it's been so long. I always have this adjusting-to-new-perm stage where I feel a little like a poodle, kinda too curly hair, but then after a few washes I'm good to go:)
Anywho, here are some pixes from our trip...
grandparents:) bryan's dad got these roses just for our little 'bella:)

on another note, I just heard something that really disturbed me, kinda annoyed.
so last night, I'm watching E! daily 10, and the story is about angelina jolie
going to syria and meeting with homeless refugees or something like
that... anyway, the host calls angelina the "modern day mother
teresa." WHAT?? how can you even compare mother teresa who devoted
almost her entire life to taking care of the destitute, literally
cleaning up all of their bodily fluids every day, to angelina jolie,
who adopted a few foreign babies and visited some countries. I know adopting is not a small thing, neither is flying around visiting dozens of countries. But still, Mother Teresa?? I'm sure that host just said it on whim, but still... It was
weird because these days, I'm really not bugged, phased, or bothered by
much, not even on tv( sad, i know).. but for some reason, when that
host said that, I was really urked...
alrighty, that's my two cents for today...
have a good day!!
ps. no more xanga lock- forgot about friends and family who don't have xanga:) | | |
