This summer we’ve really seen Tyler’s personality come out. He’s caring (always feeding us or his friends food) and funny (loves to crack jokes, make funny sounds and laugh). He’s almost always in a good mood except when he’s getting his haircut. His favorite show is Peep and the Big Wide World, a hilarious show [...]

no more Mrs. Nice Mommy…
For what seems like an eternity (but more like 2 weeks), Tyler has been waking up crying in the middle of the night. It happens anywhere from 1-4am and has become so routine that I instinctively wake up pre-cry around 3am and just wait for him to start crying. Initially we made the mistake of [...]

family trip and sleeping woes…
I realized that we had never gone on a “real” family trip that didn’t involve visiting relatives (mostly my parents in Seattle). So we decided to go on a road trip to San Francisco for the long Memorial day holiday weekend. I lived in SF from 99-2001, and it is still my favorite city. Our [...]

Tyler’s second family
Last week I finally took some video of what goes on every morning at daycare. From the video it’s easy to see what a close-knit family environment it is. From the minute we walk through the front door, he is greeted with hugs and kisses from the other kids. His best friend, Hana (who is [...]

bye bye binky
After Tyler’s 2 year doctor appointment, we knew it was time to confiscate the pacifier from Tyler. He wasn’t attached to it during the day but definitely associated bed and nap time with binky. Last week as I was putting him to bed, we went through all the usual rituals (bath, read 5-6 books, turn [...]

10 things…
1. Tyler says “bless you <insert name>!” whenever someone sneezes. Even if you sneeze in another room, he’ll shout it out loud to make sure you hear him.
2. Instead of simply answering “yeah” or “yes”, he answers “OH YES.”
3. He can read numbers up to 9 (gets confused when he see the “1″ and ”0″) [...]

early christmas in seattle…
we had originally planned to stay in LA for the holidays, but with flights getting cheaper by the day, I snagged a great deal on a flight to seattle. Tom didn’t have any vacation time, so I bit the bullet and flew up with Tyler myself even though I had sworn never to fly alone [...]

happy thanksgiving!
Normally we drive out to Monterey Park to spend the holidays with Gomo and Gomobu’s + extended families, but this year we wanted to start some of our own family traditions…beginning with cooking my first turkey! After a week of planning and reading a million different ways to roast a turkey, I finally settled on [...]

happy halloween! ooh ooh ahh ahh!!
Deciding on this year’s halloween costume was an easy one…not only is Tyler’s favorite stuffed animal a monkey, he loves watching Curious George and reading all his Curious George books. Actually getting him to wear the costume was not so easy. I bought it a couple months ago so he could get used to it, [...]
