Fun in the fall leaves

This was Sunday November 7th.  I think it may be one of the last beautiful days we get this year!  As a matter of fact it is snowing as I type. We went with Camille and her family to see if we could get some cute pics. She did all of our family pictures and then I snapped some of the kids. Soungsik was patiently dragged along with my girlie idea - sheesh pictures! William just wanted to run around everywhere and Isabelle wanted me to take about 5,000 pictures of her. I hope her bubble doesn't burst too much when I tell her I won't allow her to be a model later.

Just stuff that we've been up to...

This was Halloween 2010.  It was also the day after Jenny had a new baby

 and the same day mom and dad were moving back.

Needless to say the boys had their hands full of boxes and Camille and I had our hands full of kids.

I am most certainly not going to be one of those amazing moms with 11 kids. 

I would end up in an institution within 2 weeks.

It was also freezing cold so we went trick or treating to only 5 houses and then told the kids if they wanted to go home we would load up their baskets.  Strangely enough the kids thought that idea was awesome! 

We wanted to make sure they had enough sugar intake for the day so Camille made spider cupcakes.  You don't want to rely on Halloween candy alone to get your needed sugar supply!

Here Isabelle is at her gymnastics class.  With her instructor, Mrs. Gloria, a cat, mermaid and a witch.

It was very entertaining watching them try to do cartwheels and balance beam in costume!

Needless to say Isabelle's hat came off before all that started.

Welcoming baby Wesley Steven Cain on October 29, 2010. He was 8 lbs 8 ounces.

Here is is with big sister Lily.

And here he is with big sister Natalie.

 Here he is with Isabelle.

I am afraid he might get loved to death with all of the little girls we have in our family!!!

The sugar is gone!

Say it's not so!!!

Hello bright eyes! 

 Isabelle's 1st piano recital was in March.  She had been taking from Sister Fox for about a month (I think).  She played 2 songs that were each about 4 measures long...Soungsik and I coudn't have been prouder. 

 Its a little scary how much she likes the stage and being in front of people,

that is NOT something she got from me!

Grandpa has a fan club, but I think William does too!

William in the back of a truck with Grandpa, it doesn't get better than this...

 Just kidding, it gets way better. 

Grandpa and a tractor thingy is WAY better!!!

 Add a few rocks and you're in heaven!

 Fun at the splash park.  The dads got pretty soaked too...except for Keith...I think we'll need to remember that for next time!

 

 Isabelle is LOVING gymnastics.  Mrs. Gloria is such a great (and patient) teacher!!!

Just try to get that cell phone back!



PLEEEAAASSE...Don't pee on  my laptop!!!



 

Mommy's little jailbird.

Happy 1st Birthday William!



  Happy Birthday William!  It has been a busy and very fast year. 
Even though he is pint sized (only 16 lbs) he is like mighty mouse.  He can and will climb everything.  He loves to run, in fact the only problem we see developmentally is that he doesn't seem to bend in the middle.  This makes sitting almost impossible but we are seeking medical help, psychiatric counseling, for mom and dad of course. He is fast becoming a pro at Taekwondo, punching, kicking, and Aye Yahing all over the house!  He fell out of his crib just a few weeks after his 1st birthday and so he has advanced to a big boy bed.

She loves being a big sister.  Soon we will just turn over all of the raising responsibilities to her!

 My handsome litte Korean.  I think his Hanbok (korean clothes) will fit him for 3 or 4 more years!

 It didn't take long to catch onto opening presents.
And its even easier with LOTS of help.  We love all of the cousins and are so glad everyone was with us!

By the time we had cake he was exhausted.  He still managed to eat TONS even though he was crying ALOT!  He was so tired he fell asleep IN the bathtub after the cake was done!

He wasn't digging the birthday hat.

They are fast becoming best friends. I hope it really lasts forever!!!
