My family and I went to the Grove in LA to meet Joey's couple. It was 9pm on Saturday night and lots of people already crowded around all over the place. Luckily, we could take a seat by the fountain and watched the nice fountain show by right next to it. Here's a shot from there and you can check out who Joey's girl friend is!

It is the first blogging from cellphone. My family went to church retreat within labor day holiday. Palm Springs was really hot and we can't wait to swim in hot water pool of the resort. Stella was a little bit hard to travel in this weather but it was not bad overall. We've also stayed in Cabazon outlet for half day and had dinner at Red Lobster on Ontario after that. Rachel was satisfied and I was totally tired after all. This message was sent using the Picture and Video Messaging service from Verizon Wireless!

Finally, I’ve received the professional photography of Stella’s a hundred days old from the studio.  Followings are my selection of them. Stella liked this accessories with the sitter.  I’ve considered to buy one but it turned out a little bit expensive than my budget.  Those flowers  and lots of reds in the scene makes her emotion brighter and active.  By the way, she looks a little bit fat with the wig and scarf.   We’ve prepared kinds of formal suits to take the family shot but the photographer wanted me untie.   It makes more like casual look and feel of our first family photo. This is one of the best smile of Stella among all pictures.  She started with good feeling at the first day of studio experience but became tired after the first hour.    After the bathtub scene, we’ve moved to different room which has various cushions.  Soon, she started hating to lie down with her arms on a cushion and we couldn’t ...

I should have set the resolution higher but didn't know how to set it when I recorded this. All the pictures and video were taken by my cell phone.

My company gave all employee one week mandatory vacation with shutting down our whole facility within Independence Day. My wife and I have already spent monday thru wednesday to take baby's picture and agreed that we don't want to pass all holiday week without going anywhere else since we've canceled Vegas trip due to incredible heat of Los Angeles area. So, where can be the destination for a short two days trip? We've recalled Avila beach since there's nice seafood market and best mineral host spring resort called Sycamore. The old memory of the last year's anniversary trip reminds us the taste of crabs & oysters and there's no reason to deny this idea. Olde Port Inn at Harford Pier which is rated one of top 10 seafood restaurant in Calif.

In Korea, a good family always leave a record of photography for one hundred days old baby by a professional studio. Even though we've already taken professional pictures twice (once when we're still in hospital after delivery and the other when around Stella was two months old), Rachel wants to keep this Korean tradition, too. So, we've made an arrangement with a photography studio especially for baby and went there couple of times to take pictures of Stella. They have nice accessories, good photographers as well as variety of packages. Taking infant to strange place is always challenging but Stella went through all of schedule really good. Luckily we met a good photographer who's also a mom of kids. She knows baby and is very experienced how to treat this little one. Rachel's preparing Stella to take picture of her. Within each scene, we need to change her clothes and sooth her if she's not in good mood. Overall, she's really good girl during photog...
