Abby in Bekah's Clothes...

Skinny Mini! I let Abby pick out Bekah's clothes & she sure did! She also put them on!! It was so funny...we couldn't believe she could still get into 3-6 month clothes! I could've saved a lot of money! The dress IS a tad bit short, but at least the spankies fit! :)

Photography by Abby

I'm sure this could win awards...especially with the cute little foot in it! Abby snapped about 10 shots of Indy hair as Daddy was grooming him over the weekend. It is so hot; I feel bad for him most days. I don't think it would be much fun to be a big hairy dog in Korea!

Blog Changes...

I know many of you may not believe this...Brad is not really into this blogging thing. :) I asked him for some feedback tonight on what it should look like & he didn't give me much more than a shrug (okay, he WAS watching the Olympic men's soccer game, so it might not have been the best time to broach the subject!). Anyhow, I did get him to look over long enough for him to tell me that he thinks my themes have been very Hawaiian...that I should look for something more Korean themed. Hmmmm...I actually kind of like that idea. That should only take me another 3 night of my life to figure out! Off to search for the perfect blogskin or template or whatever you want to call it!

Our Icky News...

UGH! It has taken me a couple of days to wrap my mind around this. The sale of our house in the states fell through. I think we were in shock the first day or so. I won't go into the details, but let's just say that 2 days before we had this monkey off our back, we received the call from our realtor telling us that the buyer couldn't purchase our house right now. See, there was a contingency (= not good for us!) & she didn't fulfill her side of it...not because she didn't want to. The person buying her house in CA did not do what he was supposed to do (like deposit funds into her account!!) -- I guess that's who I should be upset with, right? I am reminding myself about every 10 minutes of something that my bestest pal Sarah told me...the sale isn't just going to bless us, God wants someone else to be blessed with our house. What do you mean...it's not all about me???? :) I told you I wasn't going to go into the details & here I am. Imagine that! Me rambling...hahaha. Anyhow, if you're reading this, please say a little prayer that our house will sell, and sell FAST! Patience is something I am working on...that's why God gave me a 3 year old!

Our Big Girl

Well, I am still a little in shock about what happened today. We went on our normal errands to the BX & to the Post Office. We walked by the beauty salon on the way to the BX & Abby made a comment about getting her hair cut. I thought she was kidding, but no, she was VERY serious. I have no idea what brought this on or where it came from. I thought if I took her shopping, she would not be interested in it, but she asked again if we could get her hair cut "right now." SO, I asked how she wanted to get it cut. She said she wanted it like Grandma's hair...oh my, that's SHORT. I told her we might want to leave it a little longer, so she decided to get it cut like mine. Hmmm...I wish my hair was as thin as hers. Anyway, we went to the salon & this is what you can get for $7.50...



That girl is cute...long hair or short! Yes, I am her mother, but it's cute. I really thought I might cry when I saw all that hair hit the ground. The funny thing is that I had just read an article on how you need to let your kids make some decisions for themselves. As a parent if you make them all now, it doesn't give them the experience in dealing with what happens after they make decisions...good or bad. ANYWAY, Brad asked if she is going to grow it back out and she said, "it's growing back right now, Daddy" in her really dramatic exasperated way! :) DUH.


Side view...Ms. Kim did a good job. It's not easy cutting a 3yo's hair! :)



Back view...

Truthfully, if I weren't still carrying around this extra baby weight, I would go & get the same haircut! :) She seems much happier. As I have said many times, "it's just hair." So, she made a big girl decision & seems okay with it. Who knows...maybe my next post will be with MY haircut. She wants me to do it tomorrow... :)

Happy 7th Anniversary!

...to us! We had an actual date night planned. It didn't happen. I guess at this point in my life, I should not be surprised! The babysitter who was supposed to watch the girls was tasked to go into Seoul to be trained on how to escort the President of the United States. The nerve! I mean really...what's truly important here?! HA! It really wasn't a big deal. We spent the night like we do any other Monday night...PIZZA NIGHT! There is a jumpy castle & Brad chooses our pizza toppings, so it's a win-win. The only small problem so far is that Bekah isn't overly fond of eating out right now. Oh well, can't have everything! She is a pretty good sport & luckily it's loud there. Okay...I digressed. Anyway, the flowers were a surprise & they are beautiful. They also smell delicious! Every time I walk into the kitchen I am greeted with a yummy reminder of our special day. The best part is the bonus gift of my new glass pitcher (that I have been wanting to buy!) & Brad bought me one. It's very cute & will make me happier than any crummy plastic pitcher b/c of my weird tendancies. We will still take a date night someday to go & eat by ourselves at a Thai restaurant. We have lots of time for that!

First Teeny Bikini

Only a baby smiles when you take their picture in a bathing suit! Here is Bekah all decked out for our trip to the pool. She was all smiles & enjoyed splashing in the pool for a little bit. Abby is taking swim lessons now & I put Bekah in her suit...just in case we have to pass the time in the baby pool. Abby is doing very well -- other than she was 'tired' within the first five minutes and was cold the whole time! WHEW. It's rough to be 3...
