Strolling through the hallways....

He can't walk yet... 

But he's got the senior citizen thing down-- perfectly! 

One of our fellow apartment neighbors even commented and said, 

"It's funny how as we get older we go back to this stage.  My grandfather walks just like him." 

Do you see what I mean?? 

Also, thank you to everyone who read and/or commented on my feminism rant post.  I really do appreciate everyone who took their time to do so.  It wasn't a short post.  I am really passionate about this topic and I hope that it enlightened and brought some understanding for people.  Please feel free to criticize or tell me what you don't agree with!! I love a good, healthy conversation about this topic of feminism.  I plan on posting more about some insights and hopefully you'll continue to read.  Thank you again! 

hurricane sandy

When we first moved here, Hurricane Irene was making its way along the East Coast.  It turned out that it didn't hit Boston too destructively.  This time around, it seems the warning is a little bit more serious.  School's been cancelled for Nelson; things are closed all around Boston; we've got our food and water storage ready.....

So because we're confined to our building today... Auden seems to be our source of entertainment.  Below is a video of an example of how we keep ourselves laughing throughout the day.
{our favorite is the gasp in the middle of the video... it's usually a sign that he's in a good mood!}

on to another month

It's now the third month where we've had our little Auden in our lives.  It's been a whirlwind of a time.  A fantastic, sleep deprived, adventurous whirlwind.  This little boy has captivated us.  It's amazing that a tiny person like him can mesmerize a bunch of intelligent adults for hours and hours.  It's amazing that a quiet coo and a glimpse of a smile can be the best part of my day.

He's grown up so much since that day he was put into my arms... since he came home with us.  He becomes more and more beautiful by the minute. Here's a little video update of our munchkin:

go ahead and ignore me. I'm not the cute one.
I filmed this to update my parents... but he was so cute that I couldn't help but post it here as well.  I'm speaking Korean in case you didn't know.
