Max has just started to discover himself in the mirror. I love his shocked expression in this one.

This photo was taken during Max's first bath.
And this one during his bath last night. What a difference a few months and a few pounds makes. Max has now doubled his birth weight and loves the bath!!! He loves it so much that he kicks water all over the place and wiggles until he slides down his lounger so far that his head is almost in the water and then laughs when we pick him up to scoot him back to the top. We think this game is pretty funny too:)

My friend Ritsuko and her son Shoma came over today for our weekly play date. Shoma is 5 weeks older than Max.
This week the boys actually looked at each other, but they are still not sure what to make of the whole "play date" thing, or each other for that matter. In the meantime it is nice for Ritsuko and I to hang out. She is one of my friends from the Korean classes I took at Ewha University. They live a few buildings over from us in Dong-bu-Ichon-dong. Say that fast 10 times:)

We took a Sunday stroll to the Korean National Museum, which is practically across the street from our apartment. It's quite impressive and not overdone for once. Others had similar photo ideas.
There was a nice little pagoda garden on the grounds. Max demanded pacifier attention.
Other young parents had similar Sunday strolling ideas.
It rained briefly on us during the Sunday stroll but really opened up after we got home. The light outside is not so good for this grill shot but wanted to show off the new kabob cages that Mary Jane sent for my birthday. Thanks MJ!
