3D Ultrasound Pictures!

Earlier today, we went in for our second 3D ultrasound (we got a free repeat session because the baby was in an unfavorable position the first time). While the baby cooperated a bit better this time around, she still had her hands in front of her face for most of the session, causing much poking […]

Let Me Sniff Your Stinky Paws

This post is dedicated to my sister, with whom I have had many conversations about how we love to sniff our dogs’ stinky paws. I’m sure that all dog owners can agree: there is a certain (irresistible) aroma about our furry friends’ paws. It’s not a bad scent, per se. The closest description I’ve heard […]

Nutrition Facts, Redesigned

While I am a foodie, I’m not the healthiest person in the world when it comes to eating. Alright, I eat like crap. (Don’t worry, I’ve gotten a lot better since I got pregnant.) So it should come to no surprise that I hardly ever pay attention to nutrition facts labels. Ingredients. Vitamins/minerals. Measurements. Percentages. […]

Happy Mother’s Day!

Today, my mother is spending the day resting at home and playing with Comang, whom she had graciously agreed to watch for us while we are away. When I called her to wish her a Happy Mother’s Day and she enthusiastically replied, “Happy Mother’s Day to you too!” (FYI, J doesn’t think that this Mother’s […]

Off to Our Babymoon!

Early tomorrow morning, J and I will be boarding a plane to… This is our first real vacation together since our honeymoon two years ago. I can’t help but be giddy with excitement! I know that most couples choose to babymoon late into the second trimester, but we decided to go a bit early since […]

Where Were You When…

Yesterday I read that the Nevermind baby is now grown up and working for the artist who designed the Obama Hope posters. The Nevermind-wha? This CD cover may help jog your memory: It’s hard to believe that this much time has passed since the release of Nirvana’s ground-breaking album. I once read that our generation’s […]

Zombie Street Fighters

J and I have a thing for zombies. We love zombie flicks, zombie video games, and even zombie books (I personally think Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is overrated but believe World War Z to be one of the best books of the past decade). And we’re pretty sure that if there were ever to […]

18 Weeks

This week’s update is a few days late, but I’ve had good reason to postpone. There isn’t anything new or exciting on the pregnancy front aside from my severe round ligament pain. I still feel some aching, but it seems like the pain is gradually getting better. Praise God! I’m happy that I can now […]

Happy Children’s Day!

Ask any child in Korea what the date June 25 signifies and they may give you a blank stare. But any mention of May 5 will be met with smiles and excitement. Why? Because May 5 is Children’s Day, a national holiday reserved for the celebration of children and the youth and innocence they embody. […]
