tres chic
a couple of weeks ago, i embarked on a shopping ban. well, as most of you know, that shopping ban has been anything but successful. in actuality, i think i've shopped more in the past couple of weeks than i have in the last year! oh well, someone has to help the economy right? i'm super excited about getting in my new purchases from this new site i found(www.sespetitesmains.com) that sells the cutest girl's clothing. it reminds me of something out of a french movie...ok. now i'm done shopping for real

An afternoon with Naomi = lots of screaming and dancing
Austin had to work again today, so my mom and I spent the day teaching Naomi how to squeal and dance. Fun times.

Last weekend
It's been a busy week, but what else is new. I'm finally getting around to posting pictures from this past weekend...and it's already Friday.
Last weekend, Nate, Vonya and their 17 mth old daughter Geneva came to stay with us for the weekend. Geneva was a trip, way too cute for her own good. Not only was she cute, but she's incredibly smart!! Every time she saw Lilo and Stitch, she'd say, "Doggies - woof woof". When she saw Naomi she'd say "Baby - Wah Wah". Nate and Vonya taught her how to say Naomi, and she'd say, "Nomi Omi", cute nickname if you ask me. When you asked her to say Amy, she'd say, "amyamyamy", when you asked her to say Austin, she'd say, "NO!" Like I said. Smart girl.
On Saturday night, Vonya, Nate and Geneva went to a friends engagement party, and the Wei family drove into the city to have dinner with Stan who was visiting from San Fran, Priscilla and Weston. We had dinner at Landmarc, which Priscilla picked because of the numerous strollers parked outside...i.e. kid friendly. Naomi really started opening up at dinner, she kept cracking up whenever Weston or Stan would make faces at her. She's getting to be so much fun. Of course we stayed out a bit too late, and as soon as 8pm struck, Naomi turned into super cranky baby and we headed home not too long after that.
Sunday was another fun packed day. We met up with Gene, Jaime and Alli, and Priscilla at the Central Park Zoo. I was thinking Naomi would be too young to enjoy it, but she proved me wrong. She loved looking at the animals, especially the Penguins - she was laughing and yelling at them for awhile. She also loved seeing all the people walking around, you could see her just taking everything in. She even saw a Polar Bear, and we had to recite the words to her "Polar Bear Polar Bear" book.
At the end of the day, we were all exhausted, both Naomi and Alli conked out in their strollers on the walk back to the car.
All in all, a great weekend.

Milestones Galore!!
Guess Naomi really was going through some major developmental changes. Thankfully she slept through the night last night. But today she crawled forward for the first time (sadly I missed it since I was at work, but I got to witness it when I got home...Austin on the other hand is still at work and will have to wait and see it tomorrow or this weekend). She held her own bottle up to her mouth this morning (again I didn't witness, but at least saw a picture of it!)
She also pushed up from her stomach into a sitting position for the first time - something I was home to witness!

My baby is growing up so quickly!!!
cleaning up
I took off the 'adsense' ads on this blog. They annoyed me because they were so ugly, and lets face it, I've made like $5 in almost a year off of them. Seeing that google only sends you out a check once you've hit the $100 mark.....well you see where I'm going. So anyway, I present to you my totally adsense free blog.
Now I just gotta get my designer *ahem* to spruce it up for me.

Milestone
Wanted to post so I remember when it happened.
Last night Naomi pulled herself up from a sitting to a standing position. Of course since she was using me as her support, I don't have a picture. But it was cute none the less. She kept smiling when she stood up, clearly very proud of her accomplishment.
They say when your babies are about to hit new developmental milestones, they sleep poorly at night. Naomi has proven this to be true. The last two nights have been rough. I've been so spoilt by having her sleep so well at night that these awakenings have me extremely tired.
