My curious boy

It's finally time to child proof the entire house. This boy is already crawling and just so curious. His latest obsession is my iphone, our kitchen cabinets and drawers. He will definitely be upset when he finds out that he can't open anything. I love this little guy. I am just so proud to be his Mom even though he's keeping me busy all day long.

41 lbs!

So I lost a total of 41 lbs in 7 months. Last month, I lost a total of 10 pounds by totally changing my eating habit, and working out more by keeping myself active. I eat rice like 3-7 times a week now. I eat steamed veggies instead of rice. It was boring at first but I love it now! It's weird because I grew up eating 2-3 servings per day. I was surprise that the transition went really well! Also I quit drinking soda. I had a sip today though but I plan to avoid it for good. I'm really not a soda person so it's not going to be an issue.

So anyway, it seemed like it took forever to shed those extra pounds that I gained, but some of my friends were telling me that I lost my pregnancy weight pretty fast. I don't feel that way at all because I have friends who lose all their excess weight in a month or 2... I'm dead serious! In the first place, they only gain weight in their belly. Their arms, legs and face stay small. So not fair! My Mom was exactly that way. After giving birth, she's skinny again in less than an month... plus zero stretch marks. Too bad I did not inherit those good genes :-(

My goal is not to become super skinny like those supermodels. I was once a size 2 and I didn't like that at all. I was slightly underweight and I did not look good in jeans. Not cool! I just want to continue to live a healthy lifestyle, not just for my self, but for my family... because they need me and I want to be there for them.

7 months

I love his shirt!

7 cupcakes to celebrate his 7 month birthday

-bath time

-He loves, carrots, banana and green beans

-He loves outdoor, specially the park

-He can say "Dada" "Baba", "Mama", and "He-yo (hello)" He mumbles a lot

-He loves to crawl like a worm to get his toys

We love Alex so much. He's a joy beyond compare. I love being his Mom. He's a beautiful little boy. He's perfect.

Alex is a dog lover

Oh loves dogs. He gets excited! I guess he's a pet lover just like his Dad! In the video is his Uncle Caleb and Petunia, the cute and smart pug.

Alex's daily activities

Good Morning world!

He can hold his bottle now. He completely stopped nursing

Play time with Daddy is always a blast

Playing with his toys with Mom and Dad. He's a busy boy

Walking around the kitchen with his fave car/baby walker

He eats twice a day now. he loves carrots and green beans



He also loves books, flashcards and music. He wants to play all the time when he's awake. I am a busy Mommy and Alex is busy baby. We both enjoy our time together. Life is good my friends!

His favorite!

He totally loves his jumper! We love it to because it wears him out and it's a good baby exercise. Thanks, Aunt Robin for the jumper.

6 months old

Yes! He's half a year old already. It's so hard to believe that he's 6 months old! He's growing way too fast. He's a perfect little boy and i couldn't ask for more. He sleeps through the night since he's a month old. I am talking about 8-9 hours here...even stormy nights and loud thunders. I guess he got it from us because we both love our good night sleep. He got his 6 month shots this week. As usual, he's a trooper. He cried for a 5 seconds and then he's good. He's very healthy and strong. He's also very smart.

He started his 1st solid food last month. He loves it! For now, he's eating gerber rice cereal and then we'll introduce him to veggies next week.

I am just so proud to be his Mom. He's a very happy little boy and very social baby. His laughter melt our hearts. We are definitely keeping him :)

Happy 6 month little guy! We love you so much!
