Park lovers

Max loves loves running around!!

During the day is pretty hot

so I have to choose go outside ;early morning or after dinner!

Of course, I want to sleep in lol

6:30~8pm is perfect time!!

Beautiful!!

Where are they? ^^

Max suddenly was doing this! ^^

My cute& handsome boy!

Dad and Son ^^

I know I can't stop loving them

will never ends!

Alex and I are thinking about getting nice camera!

Maybe in Japan?

Max is too perfect too beautiful we want to have perfect camera for him.

Professional camera!

Helping daddy!

Alex did some front yard work this weekends.

Max was very excited!

Following around daddy to find something to help!

Max is very supported!

I got this cute toy set from Ikea!

Perfect ^^

Max worked very hard that day!

Max and I walked around the town and went to the park.

So Alex could finish his job without Max's help! lol

Max wants to join everything whatever we do!

In front of house was very quiet and it was such a beautiful day!

I let Max play in front of our home.

Max was very very happy!!

Max knows how to get to the park from our home~

I want to learn Gardening

I got cool hat for gardening from the Sportsmen warehouse!

I've never lived the house has yard in my life.

This is the first time that I am living with a yard!

I've grown up in the coolest fancy apartment that you don't need to do anything in Korea!

lol

the Apartment in Korea is very different from USA.

You just can't imagine how amazing the apartments are in Korea!

fabulous!

Those comfortable&easy city life style that I've grown up is still inside me sometimes,

even if I've been living in USA for almost 7 years.

People who haven't lived in the city for a long time wouldn't understand..

I sometimes miss the pollutions in the city..

I sometimes miss the busy street pass by lots of people..

I miss subway... busy busy full of people inside.

I miss a bus that sometime I missed my stop because so many people inside the bus..

no space at all to walk!

I miss the little stores on the street you can walk and shop by anytime wearing with your fancy high heels!

I miss a fancy interior cafe's on the street!

I miss the quick service system(men) in compact city that whenever/whatever/wherever

you want call the quick service company,

they do quickest service for you with a little money.

So much competitions going on every market and businesses in the small country!!

You pay less for someone else to do with your jobs/works actually you do by yourself.

Save time and save money to make someone else to do things.

I thought it's normal life in Korea,

but when I came to USA lived longer and longer,

Here is very different.

I have to do so many things lol

All my Korean friends IN USA were surprised lol

WE ALL DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BESIDES TRYING TO FIND SERVICE COMPANY LOL

WE FOUND SOME WEBSITES AND PLACES WHO TO THAT FOR US,

BUT

VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY EXPENSIVE!!!

I am getting better

I am trying to do something by myself..

YOU KNOW WHAT GREAT THINGS I DID IN USA IN MY LIFE?

I got driver license!!!

I have my own car!!!

I thought I would never drive a car in Korea,

I was thinking~

I am not driving just meet a guy who has a car lol

I joined the church and found the perfect man in the world!

(I never imagined I would be marry American man lol)

I have a beautiful baby!

(I thought I would be marry late 20s and early 30s)

I am staying home mom!!!

(I thought I would still keep the job even after having baby.)

We are plaining to have more kids!

(I thought I would have only one child like everybody does in Korea.)

Now I can eat Mexican food without having stomaches problem!

WHAT A BIG DIFFERENT I WOULD NEVER HAD IF I STILL LIVED IN THE CITY ,, IN KOREA.

MY LIFE HAS CHANGED SO MUCH SINCE I CAME TO USA.

you don't actually realized how much you've changed after 4~5 years..

living in a different country.

my mind changed too.

You are able to see everything more wider and open than before.

You realized what is the actually most important thing in your life.

You see yourself better when you've lived different places far away from what you used to have/with.

I still need to learn lots of things

I still need to figure things out in my life with very different ways

but I am very thankful to God who gave this chance to me;

giving me a chance to live different place/country/meet different people/different life style.

aBOUT SERVICE COMPANY:

(lots of guys with motor bike standing in the city with several cell phones are normally quick service men that company calls them the nearest person from the customer and they got call from company who gets to the costumer first(fast) have a job& earn money that day!

Basically company lets quick service men knows with Cell phone text message where/who/what/, who are near by customer they try to go fast before some other quick service guy gets the customer first and get a work.

This is amazing! Quick service men arrive to me in 5~10 mins!

and ASK WHAT I WANT THEM TO DO!

You don't need to pay lots of money for labor because so many quick service companies

this is very competitive business in Korea so lots of cheap deals going on with better service!)

Puppet show

This Month of Mother's play group went to see the puppet show in the huge playground right next to the Sacramento Zoo.

Entrance fee for the playground was 4$ and the puppet show was 2$ just for me.

Kids under 1 year old is free and one kid is free.

Max was free for the one kid so I just paid for myself.

10:30am show was sold out so all of us decided to see 11:30 am one.

We had almost an hour free time before the show.

Max's church buddy Oliver was Max's closest age who can hang out really well with Max.

Besides Oliver, other boys were few years older and very strong^^;;;;;

Oliver is 9 months older than Max.

Actually they both are pretty good together even though they do different things each other.

After the show, we had lunch near by this turtle stone?

Max and Oliver ran to it after lunch.

Max was really into these rabbits for a while

and got bored ^^

I have a rabbit allergy so I wanted to stay far away.

My neck already started to itching!

Max loves to run on the grass!

He just loves the hill on the grass too!

Max suddenly took a rest and sit this feet statue.

The boy behind Max was pretty mad at Max haha

He kept saying to Max "Go!"

Max didn't care(Maybe didn't understand lol) and smiling at me for the pictures!

This one just made me laugh.

Max even didn't notice the boy was behind him haha

Max was just relaxing there no matter what.

This is the only one picture I took that day Max was actually looking at me for the picture.

I couldn't take many of his pictures like this because Max was running around never stop moving!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next month of Mom's play group will be the swimming lesson for the babies and kids with mom!

How fun!!

Every Thursday we meet in the park and walk and play in the playground.

also we go to this kind of big event ^^

Once a month we all get to hang out in the one of member's house.

This month was Swap toys each other.

Max got the coolest toy!

and I brought the noisy ones lol

Not lying,

Max toy was the most popular between other boys!

Kid's golfs set which Max doesn't even care..not very interested in.

and other ones that noisy stick stroller that make a noisy when Max was moving it around on the floor lol

Max got cool toy!

The yellow bus!

Max picked that one right away and played with it all hours there ^^

The other boys were fighting over Max toys! ^^

I love Mom's group at church.

I am really enjoying it not just for Max, for myself too.

All other boys/babies are so so adorable that I can learn from them just watching them how to play.

the boys are older than Max so I maybe could guess what next stages for Max.

Moms are all wonderful.

They always help me and tell me the GOOD DEALS of anything they know!

When I see them, they are all "super moms"

They are not afraid of anything to do with their kids!

They teach the lesson at church holding one of their baby and at the same time they also disciplines their older one ^^;

Teaching lesson with holding baby and made their older kids sit and made them listen. WOW!

Alex and I are sometimes amazed to see them to do like that.

and also they all do others too..

hobbies, callings at church, teaching lessons, helping others, taking care of their children, part time jobs, internships, etc..

They all do like this..

Sometimes I wonder... are they really human?? lol

My life:

I need a long sweet nap during the day..

I love to sleep in... till 11am.

I love....... to watch Korean tv shows and dramas..

I love online shopping.

(Alex is getting scared of delivery boxes I get almost 3~4 times a week from sepora and Asian cosmetics online shops)

I love... to watch HG TV.

I love ... to ... laying on my warm heating mat bed..and watching YouTube.

I love to read fashion magazines..

I love to put facial mask and taking a quick 20~30 min nap.

I love to do my nails ..

Oh... I do go book Club once a month ^^

Can I become super mom like them???

They are all even younger than me ^^;

They handle things way better than me too. ^^;;

Yes..

We all lived different life(past/childhood)..

different families..

different places..

Even different country ^^;;

Sometimes I am thinking..

What am I good at ??

Besides everything,

If I pick the one I like about Sacramento is the beautiful clean&pure blue Sky!

It is always fun to take pictures..

because no matter what

Sky is always blue and it makes my picture more beautiful!

New Home

Max still doesn't like anything on his head ^^

Max couldn't figure out how to take off this cute hair band.

So we had many chances to take more pictures..but..

He was moving around to take off ..

There were few cute photos with this cute hair band!

Thank you Kate!

This is Alex's office.

His office has a huge window door to go back yard.

This space was actually a little nook, didn't have a door.

But older owners made a wall and put the a door to make a room.

So 4 bedroom and 2 full bath.

Alex can have his office! YA!

Also they made a closet but didn't put the doors..

Actually better for Alex's office

He has more space and bookshelf & storage lol

Guest room

We have sofa bed.

Front door and another door for the garage.

The last door is small storage.

it was hard to find a litte bench between garage door and front door.

37in wide was very difficult size!

We gave up the bench and find this one at World Market.

Perfect!

My favorite space!

Kitchen has this long large desk for me.

I use laptop and watching Korean shows!

Kitchen.

I love this large space in the kitchen.

Max sit there on the floor while I am cooking..

Bring all his toys and play very well!

Dinner table!

We are working on photo frames with our family pictures.

We are going to put our beautiful family pictures soon those empty walls~!

Backyard.

For me, it is very big and great size but not for Alex lol

Yes American people think it's not big enough!

But I thought it was huge!

If you find this size of yard with house would be super expensive in Korea!

Our living room

We are waiting for Max's growing up more,

So I can put lamp on the side table between two couches!

I found one I want but afraid of Max ^^;

We are still looking for the pictures for the wall ^^

Alex keep saying he will find one but We are still looking!

our bedroom ^^

right side is our walking closet..

and left side door is our master bathroom.

We are going to put that drawer in the walking closet.

Max keeps open and bring all the cloths to the living room!!

I want to find my power room; little cute table with beautiful mirror so I don't need to use bathroom to make up after moving that drawer in the closet.

Our bedroom~

We are also working on wall design/photo frames with our wedding pictures on the wall.

We have a lamp there both side of our bed but Max wants to play with them..

So we moved to our garage..

We will put someday!

We are still decorating out home/design.

I found we have lots of photo frames and great stuff for the house from our Wedding gifts that we couldn't use in Apartment.

We still need new blind for two windows from Alex's work.

Sacramento needs a blind to protect from heat during the summer.

We love our new home!
