Board Check-in 8/10

[toratoratori]

I survived!

Not everyone who RSVPed for C's birthday actually showed up. I think we probably had about 25 adults and 10 kids, which was just about perfect. And I have enough leftover food to last me for the rest of my life.

It was an AWESOME party! C was so adorable with the cake. She started grabbing for it the second I put it down on her tray, which was scary, because the candles were lit. But we blew them out quickly and she went to town on the frosting. She is definitely my child.

How was everyone's weekend? Any big plans for this week / weekend?

toratoratori I 'm glad C's party turned out so well! What are your upcoming weekend plans? Saturday, G has her first professional photo session and then we're going up to Atlanta for my uncle's birthday party. Sunday, we're hosting my cousin's baby shower at our house. Just a few things going on for us

Eta: my sister and I went to a baby shower last Saturday

Today my baby girl is 1 month old! I'm so in love with her and I adore every moment that I have with her.

Today she has a hearing appointment, she has a check up on the 14th and we're probably gonna pick up my SS this weekend.

Nothing super exciting.

Hi ladies!

We survived Baby H's first plane ride this weekend and had a great time in Raleigh celebrating my cousin's wedding! I'd give LO a B+ for the weekend as a whole; he slept great, was cute and charming for the family (obvs), and behaved at the wedding, but he was a bit of a PITA on the plane (especially going home) and also in a few of the restaurants we went to. In all fairness, he cut his first tooth on Friday (the day we were flying out) so really he was remarkably good.

Today is my last day at my current job (I start my new one on Monday). It's past time that I leave here but I am feeling a bit nostalgic all the same.

The weekend was pretty low key. I am getting to the point of very decreased energy and in a lot of pain. So after a long work week I try to take it easy on the weekend. Saturday, first half I slept and rested. We had company then I had a small spurt of energy so the H took me out on the town for a couple of hours. I needed that. Sunday I had a good spurt of energy the first half then drained the rest of the day. No big plans for this week. Tomorrow is the day that is mentioned and only comes once a year and at least I get to work from home. I will also finish registering the kids at their new schools and prepare for them to come from summer vacation on Sunday. I haven't seen them since June so I am missing them like crazy.

toratoratori, My oldest daughter got mesmerized by her candle at her first birthday. I was not quick enough to stop her from putting it out with fingers. I was holding a video camera taping and the moment she reaches you can see the camera dropping. Let's just say she was traumatized by that for a few years.

Not much going on here except oh wait I HAD A BABY.

Eve.line (eh-vuh-leen) So.ra was born last Monday 8/3 and was 8 lbs 15 oz and 22 inches long. BIG BABY. She's officially the most precious thing I've ever seen and I randomly burst into tears thinking about how much I love her although that may be more from hormones than actual love but WHATEVS.

Here's some baby spam. My mom says she looks more caucasian than Korean. Her eyes are dark brown on the outside and a bluish gray on the inside.

Day 1 of life. Already with the faces.


With her daddy.
