Cool little dude!

I just couldn't resist this picture.

My happy son

This little guy is the reason why we want more kids...The reason why I don't want to work full-time, and the reason why we laugh a lot everyday! I hope all our kids will be as happy as Alex. He's a really fun baby! You will seldom hear him cry. He loves smiling and laughing! I love his sweet personality and good nature.

Please take this playhouse

When we bought our house, it comes with a play house. It's cute but I don't want it in my backyard. I don't know how to get rid of this. But seriously, it looks like a miniature haunted house. I'll probably post this on craigslist for free.

Spoiled baby?

We don't have to spoil our son with toys because our friends and family are doing it and we don't mind at all :) Seriously, he's a lucky baby! Look at all those toys! We did not buy them or spend a dime.They're all from our friends! Alex is a little too young to play but he's definitely showing great interest already. But wait.. I guess we still have to spoil him... with all the LOVE in the world.

New lens!

I finally got my new lens. It was delivered today via UPS. I was freaking excited that I had to wake my little munchkin from his nap so I can use it. I love this new lens. It's a Canon- 100mm f/2.8L Macron USM and it comes with a hood. The lens is incredibly sharp and the contrast is awesome! Great for macro and portraits with nice IS. When working at Macro distances, you can still get a pretty clean pic with the IS. It's worth every penny. I took so many pictures today. But then again, I can't post them all. Here are some:

He just woke up from his VERY short nap

Just about ready to whine and ready to nap again. I love this picture.

Marbles from my vase

Can you see me?

Isaac and Alex

My two most favorite! I just love this video. I can see how much they love each other!

My happy boy

I get this view every single day. Oh I just love this happy little boy. He's a piece of heaven.

New trick

Lately, he loves to pull my hair or whoever is holding him. He also loves to grab necklaces or earrings. No more dangling earrings for me for a while. He did this a lot today at my friend's shower party. I posted some pictures as evidence :)

This little guy also tried to steal my friend's spotlight. Okay, he actually did. He was laughing so hard during games and screaming with excitement that everybody was staring at him with a smile on their faces.

Aether and Bam

I love these pictures. I had so much taking their pictures. They're both beautiful and photogenic.

Quincy

I took these pictures before we left Utah. I love this little girl. She loves the camera and the camera loves her. She knows how to pose and she has the cutest smile. What sweet girl.

Bigger and stronger!

Alex is probably the happiest baby on the planet. He loves to laugh and smile. His laughter is music to my ears. Whenever I take him out from his crib each morning, he will give me the biggest smile ever! Whenever we play, the room is always filled with laughter. I love my little guy. I'm sorry, but my baby is the CUTEST :-D

Goodbye Atwoods!

Last Thursday was a sad day. Alex and I went to the Atwoods to say goodbye. They are moving to Colorado. The girls were my piano students. I am going to miss them. They're my adopted nieces. It's really true, "Friends come and go" but they will always remain in my heart. I hope to see them again someday when we "possibly" move to Colorado or if they move back :-)

Summer vacation

k













We had an awesome 1 and a half week vacation. It was a joyous vacation.We went to Utah and witnessed the Job's family sealing in Manti Temple. It was a very spiritual moment. The spirit was so strong and my heart was filled and joy. We slept in their nice camper with the rest of the family. Alex was a trooper. He did great! He still slept 8 hours! He's a very good boy. We also spent the night in Provo with our friend's home. Thank you Lamaroux family for taking care of us and for the great food! We forgot to take pictures with them...bummer!!! We also visited the Webers! We had a wonderful dinner in their place. They're so fun to be with and we had a good time. We wanna be their neighbor someday so our little boys (Alex and Aether) will be best of friends and we can party every weekend :)

We pretty much went to almost all the historical places in SLC. We spent the night there and headed to Bryce Canyon the following day. The place was beautiful. We went on a hike, shopped a little and toured the beautiful town. On our way home, we stopped in Colorado. We went to the temple and enjoyed the beautiful mountains. I wanna move there someday. But then when I think about their long winter... my mind gets confused.. oh well.

It was a much needed vacation. I have a gazzillion pictures but I have no time to upload more. I can't wait for our next vacation...PHILIPPINES!!! For now, we have to work harder so it'll be possible.

5 months old

I try to be creative when it comes to his cake. This month, it's carrot cake with pecan.Since we decided not put candles anymore till he turns one, I used 5 m&m's as substitute. This boy almost destroyed his cake. I can't blame him. It's too attractive and he can't eat it.

We tried to take more pictures. This time, he kicked the cake.

My little guy is growing. He's a very sweet little boy. He loves hugs and kisses. He is such a love bug and I love him to death. At 5 months, he can say "hi', "hello" and "ah-ah". Maybe he's trying to say "mama" or "dada" and it just sounds "ah-ah" :)

His favorites:

-baby walker
-rattles
-sucking his fingers or fist
-watching baby einstein
-out door
-music
-screaming when excited
-tickle time
-bath time
-playing peek-a-boo
-laughing

He's a very social baby. He'll smile to anyone. He's also showing great interest with food lately. When ever we eat, he'll start moving his mouth as if he's eating. He's a fun baby! We love this boy to death.
