On a walk 2

~ Etc.

Today was such a beatiful day! Adalie and her friend Elise went out for a walk.

Isn’t she a gorgeous baby?

Since Adalie is so hyper and so active, it was hard to get good shots of her still.

Adalie loves puppies. And strangers. Every person she sees on our walks, she would walk to them to say hi or to be held.



Elise is turning one next month but she and Adalie are the same exact size.

She was done after getting all messy(look at her knees).

Kim has become my friend and I’ll miss her when she moves away this summer. :'(
Sorry this didn’t turn out.

Tagged, I’m it!

~ Etc.

I got tagged by Amanda. 🙂
Instructions: Take the 6th picture from the 6th folder in your pictures folder.


This was taken when we went to my brother’s company party at Xango last summer. We stopped by his work place to check it out and they had DDR(Dance Dance Revolution) arcade and we couldn’t resist. I don’t know why Jay always challenges me everytime we see the DDR arcade, for he knows I’ll beat him everytime. If you’ve never tried it, you’re definitely missing out! If anyone wants to challenge me, ask me after I pop out this baby of mine. I’ll be down!

My baby shower

~ Etc.

My dear friend/cousin Ginny threw me a baby shower for the 2nd time. We had tons of good food, good fun, and good company. Thanks Ginny, I love you!

Get outta my belly!

~ Etc.

I have 10 more days to go…the due date says. Can I just tell you how done I am with the pregnancy? I can’t bend and reach further than my mid-thigh, so imagine me trying to take a bath and washing my legs or feet(oh forget about shaving)or trying to put lotion on my legs or bending down to pick up anything on the floor. I wobble wobble more than a pregnant penguin, even until a month ago I would try to attempt to walk gracefully as I made sure I didn’t bounce from side to side or up and down and walk like a floating angel but forget that too. I just gave up and since my belly is so enormous and it’s out there for everybody to see, I wobble and bounce sideways and up and down ALL I want. I even put my one hand on my back like an old grandma for support so I can wobble some more.

I have literally 4 outfits I wear over and over again because that’s all that will fit me and I might find more outfits if I dig in my closet but I hate deciding and picking out what to wear since I know I won’t look cute anyway. Walking up from the basement to the main floor gets me out of breath and I have to sit down when I make it up to rest my legs and catch my breath. Doing little chores such as picking up Adalie’s toys gets me exhausted after 2 mins, and even folding laundry sitting down gets me out of breath too. When I try to sleep, I have to lie down on the bed at a certain exact angle(precisely 85 degrees), if my body is leaning too towards my back, the belly weighs heavily on me and if I lean too close to my belly, my baby gets squished. I am so tired the whole day and when I attempt to go to bed early like last night at 9 p.m, I woke up just before midnight and couldn’t fall asleep until 4 a.m. I have a little cold but nonetheless waking up at 3, 4, 5 a.m and not being able to fall back asleep because my belly is so huge and uncomfortable is unavoidable.

I wasn’t eager to have the baby out since I know it’ll be so much harder than it is now, but that’s it, I’m done! COME OUT ALREADY!!!

K, I feel a little better now. And I smell the yummy scent of my pumpkin bread baking in the oven so that helps too. 😀
