Baby Shower

On March 10th, I had my birthday get together/baby shower. It turned out very well once everyone got there. Korean people are always on Korea time. haha. There were about 30 adults and 10 kids. The cake was good, the food was GREAT and Emma got lots of gifts. I think everyone had a nice time. My mom was exhausted from making all the food. I guess she realized that it isn't that easy becoming a grandmother. =)

We have less than 2 months left to go. Emma is very active. The belly is getting bigger and more uncomfortable. I don't know how women with bigger bellies handle it. I'm not that big but I'm still uncomfortable, especially at night when I'm trying to find a comfortable postion to sleep in. It's all worth it though.

Here are a few pictures from the baby shower. You can check out the rest on www.fotki.com/heeeun.


"Yummy, chocolate cake w/ whip cream icing!!"


"This is my girlfriend, Vivi, and her daughter, Lauren. She's the one who organized the baby shower for me. She is awesome!! Check out the beautiful diaper cake she made as well. It was a hit at the shower. She used over 100 pieces ~ diapers, spoons, pacifiers, doll and blankets."

"Here I am with my cousin's wife standing next to the cake and gift table. See...my belly isn't that big, right?"

"Here's all the GREAT food my mom made. We had galbi, chop-chae, shrimp tempura, sweet and spicy chicken and kim-bop. Vivi brought the Vietnamese spring and summer rolls. She also brought dinosaur chicken nuggets for the kids. My best friend's mom made this awesome crab dip and another cream cheese dip for appetizers."

72 Days Left to Go!!

We're getting closer to the delivery date. We can't wait. We're having my birthday get together and baby shower on March 10th. We've already purchased a few items in anticipation of Emma's arrival. I'm slowly trying to get Joey used to the items as well. Song and I hope that Joey will be okay with the new addition to the family. I think that he's still having a little difficult time getting used to Song being here. Sometimes, he gives Song this look like..."Man, you're still here? When are you going home?" haha. He's the baby and wants all of my attention...what can you do?

We're also getting closer to choosing Emma's Korean name. We wanted a Korean name that was a little more unique. We're leaning towards the name Ye-Seul but we haven't made a final decision on it yet. It may be a little difficult for some people to pronouce but then again, they can always say Emma. Emma Ye-Seul Park...we like it!!



"It looks like Hello Kitty is nicely buckled in."

"I tried to buckle Joey in but he didn't want any part of it. He just wanted to check out the seat and give his paw of approval."

"I made Daddy Park practice buckling in Hello Kitty. He was a bit rough with Hello Kitty. I'm sure he'll be much gentler with Emma."

"Joey also wanted to test out the pack 'n play we got. He may jump in there and want to sleep next to Emma when she's napping in there so we'll have to keep an eye on him."
