And summer begins...

Oh humid summer.. it's here. And i hope i survive it! I can't stand the heat! 
Today was a don'tfeellikedoinganything type of day. For some reason i woke up really early today.. so i was going to try to make the most of it since i'm up anyways~ but then as soon as i got ready i felt a little lazy. Haha. Fail. Instead i dragged myself and Max out the door close to noon to make a Costco stop! I went without my husband, so i was all over the warehouse! I actually got to look around! Usually it's just get what you need and get out. Bah. Hubby's a bore. I had fun looking at 'stuff' and Max enjoyed eating all the samples! LOL.

Anyways, i got my husband to buy Max a water table a few weeks ago, cause this boy LOVES water! If he could, he'd live in the bath tub. No lie... it's hard to get him out! So, today was a perfect day to get drenched! I was sweating as soon as i stepped out the door~

Oh, And i managed to actually use my camera! WooHoo! I really need to stop taking pics of Max on my phone -_-
Oh Max, i bet you'll be drenched all summer! Can't wait for more water table time, weekend by the pool, picnics, fire works, trips, and parks! :D

Let the summer fun begin!

Gloomy Sunday

We spent most of our day hanging out with Max's aunties and their boyfriends :D We grabbed some lunch and shopped for Korean food at the Korean market~ And since daddy came with us, we didn't use a stroller or a baby carrier. We are trying to get him to walk more. One thing we have a problem with is that Max doesn't like it when we hold his hand to walk. Once we grab his hand, he gets down on his knees and refuses to walk. Argh... Sometimes he'll even do that in the middle of walking across the street! It's so dangerous! So we are trying our best to train him to walk holding our hand. He just wants to jet off! Of course when we do let him, it's in a safe place..but he is FAST. This little boy can run! And he doesn't stop. OY. Hopefully this lil phase goes away soon and we can get him trained!

I also had a shoot planned out today, but cancelled due to rain. And what happens?! 
NO RAIN! It was just cloudy and grey all day!
So instead of staying inside the house all day, Max and i went out on a run! I really must lose some weight! So yep.. 
NO MORE EXCUSES!

15 Months

Oh MAN. My lil guy is 15 months! Makes me sad cause i can't see anymore baby in him anymore. I just see this cute lil TODDLER! Seriously don't know how that happened. 
Today we went to his 15 month appointment.. He weighed in at 26lb 13oz and is 33inches tall! He grew an inch from his 12month check up and gained about 3lbs! He also got 2 shots. Boo. But he took it like a big boy!
He is now climbing on the couch and sliding off whenever he wants, he can step up on the side walk without holding on/crawling, he can now get down on the floor and crawl backwards towards the stairs (he used to just keep on walking towards them O.O), he still doesn't point, but if i take him to the fridge i ask him "where is the milk?"and he'll reach out for it! I even moved it around to make sure he knows what i'm asking him to look for. He loves when i yell out "shoes"! Cause he thinks we are gonna play outside, so he comes running and comes sit on my lap so i can put his shoes on..hehe! 
Lately he has been picky with food tho :T
He loves the food pouches but i'm trying to get him off of that. He'll eat chicken...as long as it's salty (ugh). And when we try to feed him, we put it in his mouth and then he'll spit it out in his hand. He tastes it, take a look at it, and decides if he wants to put it back in his mouth, or throw it on the floor. I need to find a way to trick or train him to eat without spitting it out. ugh. And eat regular food! It would be nice to just make one meal for everyone! If anyone has any advice, please share! :)
*sigh* i love my BIG boy!

Have a great weekend!

Mama's Day

I am the happiest when i am with my little man.
He has filled my heart with so much joy and happiness (and anxiety).
Of course being a mom isn't all dreamy, there are ups and downs.. 
but being Max's mom is the best job evarrr!

He has brought out the best in me, he has been my inspiration, he has tested my patience, but best of all, he has opened my eyes and i can see and live life a lil more clearly. Without him i'd be lost.

Happy Mother's Day to all you fabulous, hardworking mamas!

life according to my iphone: April 2013

May? Really? Already? -_-
April has been another crazy month. Ended pretty crazy too.. We started April with Roseola virus, wasn't fun. My poor baby was sick and i freaked out when he had red bumps come out of no where.. but it just meant he was getting better. April's weather was also all over the place! Started cold around 40s then jumped to 80s then to 60s..lots of back and forth!
Max finally got his own vacuum! It's pretty cute when he vacuums along with me xD He's really good at it too! Why not train him early..right? hehe. He also love our new routine~ at 5pm i take him outside and walk run to our mailbox! We love our weekend daddy time! We went to port discovery, cherry blossom, and foodie dates. I am also getting back into shooting.
Oh! And Max's molars cut through! Can't believe it. BIG BOY TEETH! He also must of went through a growth spurt cause now his legs are long enough to start climbing the sofa! O.O And he had his first taste of jajangmyun! Oh, and he has his first visit to the ER...dahh.

Man. Toddlerhood is exciting and nerve wrecking at the same time! This boy needs a helmet..lol.
Hey May, i'm ready for you! :)
