Before we get into the pictures...
This week was pretty b i g!
This week she really is starting to sit up, she started some crawling... and today- Viva laughed for the first time! The past month she had been letting out a hearty "HA!"... short and staccato... but just a few hours ago- our little Viva let out a laugh when I tickled her belly. She constantly makes us melt a little, but this great feat of laughter really warmed my heart. I almost cried.
Last night my (Jane) paternal Halmunee (Grandma) in Seoul passed away. I'd like to think that maybe Viva laughed in honor of her. She was a very kind, loving grandma. A mother of 8 children, humble, and sweet. So here's a giggle for you, Halmunee!
And away we go!
Viva's still a bit of a baldy... but she has enough to borrow her friend Iris' neon green bow. She's in a state of shock- because of the camera's flash, and the fact that the bow clashes with her outfit. Diva.
A grainy blurry dark photo from my camera phone- but it's Viva's first crawl! It's not a "crawl-crawl", but definitely her "first crawl"!
She's a fan of the cold weather like her momma! Not like her poppa.
Before she was born we bought two items. 1- a children's book that was too sweet to pass up and 2. this hat, also too sweet to pass up. We didn't find out the sex of the baby- so we didn't buy any clothes- but I found this hat in the boy's section- but thought it'd be cute either/or.
She likes her new rug!
Soon she will be streaking through the neighborhood!
Greenbeans are heavenly!
The baby and the puppy are remarkably similar.
Synchronized Sitting.
Last minute playtime before bedtime!
Our friends have given us soooo many hand-me-down toys, it's incredible. Oh, and here's a peek at her chubby thigh... teehee.
V's friend, Iris (sitting next to Viva), turned one last Sunday- and had a party! These are the girls hanging out and girl talking.
Viva is now much bigger than her monster buddy!
She loves her monster buddy!
Baby Breath versus Doggy Breath.
Action photos of more crawling!
Look at her lil booty, and her big cheeks, and her chubby wrists, and that button nose... ahhhh, love.
