| "bah dee yah, say do you remembaaah... bah dee yah, dancin' in septembaaah... bah dee yah, never was a cloudy dayyyy" -- earth, wind & fire
although it is officially fall, we've got crazy summer weather in socal! september whizzed by so fast -- i can't believe the month is practically over!
month five for the little man in our household marked quite a few milestones! he cut his 4th tooth, learned how to sit, is starting to experiment with a lot of different fruits and is speed crawling (more like dragging his body across the floor, but he's FAST!).
he also took his first trip to disneyland just this past weekend. my company sends all its socal employees to disneyland and california adventure every few years with disney dollars to spend AND a free parking pass, so we thought it'd be fun to take ian even though he wouldn't fully know what was goin on. he did so well that we actually stayed longer than we anticipated!
here are some photos from the past month!
  the bouncer he's starting to grow out of... so he likes to play with it standing.  i'm sitting on my own!
 it's a little bright in here. he only wore this robe once and it's too small.
 hard at work... or play.
 our little mouseketeer.
 "well, hello there, mr. potato head."  family photo op!
 "k, dad -- quick photo, please. gotta go back to watching the parade."
 so happy!
 having fun with my pops.
 "aw c'mon dad. i'll just have one sip. i promise."
 ian loves grandma chung!
 ian meets grandpa chung for the first time.

| oh, the days go by... so fast... too fast
a couple days away from ian's 5 months of life, i find myself reminiscent of the earlier days of babyhood and parenthood. then quickly, dj reminds me that it was harder back then. ian cried a lot more and we wouldn't know why (aside from the usual wet diaper or because of hunger)... and there were a lot of other things that were stressful earlier on.
some of the things we're enjoying these days is watching ian's budding personality. i can't tell who he takes after more, but he's definitely looking more like dad as he gets older (he still has my eyes, though, i think!). his 3rd tooth cut through about 3 weeks ago and he is continuing to drool. he weighs in at a whopping 18 pounds now! it seems like just yesterday when he was 8 pounds light...
 he has gotten so big that his bouncy chair is starting to slowly lean back.
touching his feet. he not only touches them, he shoves them in his mouth, too.
squeaky clean after a nice bath.
 with his dear friend, huggy bear. does the name sound familiar?
 loving the facial massage from grandma chung.
 he looks so grown up here. haha... sitting on the couch with the boppy.
 and last but not least... ian's classic expression while eating rice cereal. i wonder if it really tastes as terrible as he makes it seem.
in non-baby news, i baked for the first time since ian was born...  oh, red velvets, how i've missed you so... | | |
| going back in time... i wonder what dj and i would've looked like in the 70s... 
we might've been one groovy couple. | | |
