Tony
Tony is my husband.
He is a man of integrity;
honest, reliable, trustworthy.
He is both gentle and strong.
He is fun, lighthearted and he makes me laugh.
He is athletic… he surfs, snowboards.
He is adventurous… and I will go with him anywhere in the world.
He is handsome… those eyes, those cheekbones, those arms.
He loves God and it shows in the way he treats others.
He is selfless; a humble servant leader.
He is a gift from God.
He is my love, and I am his.
1st day of Colegio
I’m so glad I got to join her in the classroom for the first week so she could get adjusted. Pom is friendly but she doesn’t like it when I leave her by herself somewhere new. When we first went in the classroom she loved all the toys. But every time she sensed that I was going to leave her, she would start crying and run to me and hug my leg. Oh how that melted my heart! I love her so much and want to spend a lot of time with her but I know this will be good for the both of us. Plus, I’m happy that she will learn a lot, explore, play, make friends, and speak Spanish!
Bangkok, Thailand
Trains, Escalators, and Malls {Bangkok, Thailand}
Sorry if you were expecting to see pictures of the temples and touristy things of Thailand- you’re not going to see any here!
Last month we visited Bangkok for a work trip. This was my 6th time in Bangkok (2 times for work, 2 times as a tourist, and once just for transit), so I feel like I have seen most of the touristy things that I want to see. This time around, we stayed near the malls, and most of my trip here was spent enjoying the malls and food!!! Especially Japanese food and desserts! We visited a different mall everyday, including: MBK, Paragon, Siam Square, Terminal 21, Central World, and Central Chidlom.
I didn’t bring my camera out everyday since I was just at the mall a lot, but here are my photos from practicing taking city photos. We were on escalators a lot and skytrains too, and I learned that Bangkok is not stroller friendly! Some of the BTS stations don’t even have an elevator or escalator and we would have to carry up baby+stroller up and down stairs. I did this on my own one day and it was just tiring!
Velvet and Ruffles
I bought this dress for my little Pom Pom while I was still pregnant. I adore this dress, which is not a typical-looking baby dress (especially since it is black!). I like almost all the dresses in the Harajuku Mini line.
Anyway, Pom Pom wore this dress when Tony and I took our anniversary photos when she was 3 months old, but these photos were taken when she was 7 months old. I wanted her to squeeze into it one more time before I neatly place it in the “Save for Baby #2 Box.” (BTW I’m not pregnant, I’m just saving it for the future!)
The outfit reminds me of classical music, like something from Mozart and Beethoven times. I wish I had a little piano or instrument to place as a prop!
Pom Pom enjoyed just touching the textures of the dress- the black velvet and the ruffles. I love how she is so curious about everything!
Every girl has a dress of them as a little girl holding onto the end of her dress and lifting it up– well I know I did!
Enjoy!
Pom's 1/2 Year Bday
My baby’s HALF a year old!!!
We took these photos before we went to the ice cream parlor. I wanted to take cute pictures of her baby fat at this age ;)… but the other reason I took these was to practice taking baby photos in an indoor, well-lit, natural-lit, controlled setting.
Pom is 6 months!
