Sumi showing her interest in balloons tonight. Too cute! 🎈   It’s already December 2nd  3 more days until daddy’s birthday and 29 days until New Year’s Eve.  Wow what a year with so much changes and turns. Some are good some are not so great but it is what it is, that’s the beautiful of life and I cannot complain.  There has been a lot of driving lately for me since auntie came to visit from Vietnam. We took her sightseeings, traveling and shopping almost everyday.  Today we made a quick visit to the outlets before dropping Preston off for a sleep over.  I pointed out the beautiful sunset sky to him and Preston took a quick snaps. I am happy- not sure why. 

Labor Day

Sumi today 9/4/2023 Bin at InterMiami vs LAFC 9/3/2023 At Messi’s game (his 2nd soccer game event)  Yesterday Bin went to LA to watch Messi’s soccer match. He got home super late and tired due to the long drive. My poor baby.  Bin has no school today.  I took him to Colter’s so they can hang out while we went groceries shopping with Sumi.  Nothing much happened.  Sumi my dear, I just read something really beautiful online so I’d like to share it with you, hopefully you will be able to read and understand Vietnamese when you get older. If not, try google translate okay.  Mommy loves you 😘 Bin + Sumi  8 CÁCH XỬ LÝ VẤN ĐỀ CỦA PHỤ NỮ THÔNG MINH 1. Im lặng Có đôi khi, bạn bị người khác hiểu lầm, bạn không muốn tranh luận nên quyết định im lặng. Không cần tất cả mọi người có thể hiểu bạn, vì vậy bạn cũng không cần phải giải thích với toàn thế giới. Chỉ cần đích thực là chính mình là được rồi. Thế nên mới có câu, nói là một loại năng lực, im lặng lại là một loại trí tuệ. 2. Bình tĩnh Khi bạn

Hello September

Sleep over. Bin is inside the pillow fort , in between the sofa and our coffee tables.   It’s still Labor Day weekend  Sumi is still sleeping as I’m writing this blog  Bin and Colter had a sleepover last night and already up downstairs. I can hear their voices from all the way up here. Bin even got up and made breakfast for him and Colter. (He cooked noodles for both of them without us knowing).  I got up again at 3, 4, 5, and now at almost 8am. Sumi has a lot of gas and needs constantly burping. She will be up again soon so I’ll make this blog quick.  By the way I just had the best 3 meals of my life since giving birth during this holiday. Good food, good companies and of course with the help of Teresa I was able to take my time to enjoy the meals.  I got Sumi a cute fake hair headband and we tried it on her last night, and everyone cracked a laugh.  Sumi you are so cute and we all love you a lot girl. Mommy is tired but to be honest I do enjoy every moment with you and secretly wish

End of August

Sunset from our backyard. I took this pic while holding Sumi to sleep.   Just a normal Thursday & just like any other day, Sumi woke up at midnight, 4am, then 5am and 6am.  Preston finally got up at 7:30am to get ready for school.  I managed to put Sumi back to sleep right before we get out of the house at 8am. I asked grandma to help me keep an eye on her while I’m away. Preston school is only 6 minutes drive from our home.  At 10am we did a little photoshoot at home for Sumi to mark her 100 days in this beautiful world. I will update with some photos as soon as I receive them.  Tomorrow is Friday- Preston’s last day of school before Labor Day weekend. I planned a 2 days getaway but changed my mind at the last minute, we will just stay local, go somewhere and come back on the same day. Because I don’t think Sumi is ready to spend a night in a hotel room.  Sumi is sleeping now next to me and Preston is trying to finish his cereal before we both can rest our eyes. He just texted me
