Today I was in the mood for some shake your booty music. So I was looking through some songs on my iTunes and I came across the song 'Ooh Aah' by Grits. Let me tell you, total blast from the past for me! I totally forgot that I had this on my computer! For old times sake I decided to play it. I think visions of my mom and brothers, listening to it extremely loud in our living room started to flash through my head. My brother Nathan pretending to be a rapper, doing the whole hand gestures things and getting all in my face while my mom was doing her dance thing and Christopher going 'ow' 'yeah' in his dance/rapper-ness voice and my sister and I sitting there trying to read our books while Nathan poked us during his rapper-ness! My sisters know what I'm talking about! LOL! I added it to my blog (just for a little bit) just so you could listen to it, don't you feel special? Ok, ok, so if you want to turn it off just go down to the very bottom of the page and hit the pause button. I promise, it will only be on my page for a day or so!

Mr. Piggy
I think I have a new nickname for Gabriel, Mr. Piggy! Gabers eats A LOT!!! Surprisingly he is still small for his age, I swear he has been at 19 pounds for forever... he just gets a tiny bit taller each month.

well that's a little different!
Welcome to my new blog! Look a little different? I think so! I know, I know, this is the third time I've changed it in 4 months... what can I say! I have to say, the first background I had just wasn't me. I just picked the first one because I was sick of looking through hundreds of backgrounds trying to find one I liked. The second one I had I liked it at first but the longer I had it the colors started to look a little pukey to me, so I am changing it again and this time I'm actually liking everything!

Success!!!!
As most of you know I have been trying to get Gabriel to drink from a sippy cup for a verrrrry loooooonnnnggggg time... well he still doesn't:( BUT I did figure out a different way to get some liquids into him! Woot Woot!!! I decided to try a bottle instead of a sippy cup. Well at first he did not like the bottle either... for a very looong time! I was going nuts to be honest! I tried the bottle because he did not like the huge flow of water that came out of the sippy cup and he did not like the hard nipple, with the bottle a lot less liquid was coming out and the nipple is softer, I thought he might like it better. Anyway, after about 2-3 weeks of trying the bottle instead of the sippy, he finally drank from it today! YES! And he didn't just hold his head there and let the water slowly drip in either , he actually sucked from it and wanted more. That was the easiest 6oz of liquid I've got down him for months! I know 6oz isn't a lot or anything, but it's a start! Now hopefully, someday, on to the sippy cup! But I'm happy, Gabriel is drinking more, and we (hopefully) don't have to fight over this all day everyday!!! Success in my book!!!!

to be a Korean...
I have decided that I would not make a very good Korean. After being here, going on 4 months, I have noticed a few qualities that all Koreans seem to have.

sometimes it's just plain hard...
I'm not going to lie. I'm not a big fan of Korea. I usually like most counties I've ever visited. Actually, I've never been to another country that I didn't like until I came to Korea. Even in countries like Morocco where I had to dress a certain way, pull my hair back, squat every time I had to go to pee and never have wet hair in public, I still liked the country. But Korea, not so much.

I'm one of those Moms!
Yep I'm that mom! I'm the mom that lets, no, encourages her kids to go play in the rain! That some mom's may look at me and say... You're letting your son sit in the water? In clothes? Without the proper diaper? In the rain? Well yes, I am! I'm not one of the prim and proper mommies... nope! I got a few looks today while Gabriel was playing in the water from bypassers with their umbrella's... but me? Well, I was getting soaked with my babe in the rain!

I really do!
So we got another new, but used, fridge the other day because our old one wasn't freezing our food. I had to take all of our food out of our old fridge so they could take it away. I then found Gabriel like this...

standing tall and proud!
Gabriel loves to stand up on anything and everything that he can. Usually he needs something a little low, like a couch or coffee table, to be able to grab onto and pull himself up. He could spend all day doing this! So today I walk into Gabriel's room after his nap to grab him and I was a little surprised to find this...
