I work in a corporate environment, sitting in front of a computer screen about 9 hours a day and I can actually say that I don't mind at all. Once in awhile I do get burnt out and need to get out to feel the breeze. Luckily for me, I work downtown so I don't have to worry too much of where to go. On a nice day, I love walking few blocks over to the waterside and enjoy the nice breeze from the ocean. I can't believe it is already Wednesday. This week has gone by so quick! Hope your week is going fab-u-lous!

“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” aaron siskind I just became an iphone owner not too long ago and I am in love with it. I don't always have my camera with me so this lil device is so handy! We had such an awesome weekend, it was filled with napping, frozen yogurt, running errands and a lot of cleaning. Lazy weekend is needed once in awhile. Hope you had a great weekend! It was still REALLY hot here!!

Being a parent is a full time job. When I get home from work, I am exhausted but still have to do laundry, clean and make sure baby Kaylee is happy and smiling. This week I got Kaylee a bumbo and boy am I glad I did! I can finally do laundry and cook without have to worry about Kaylee rolling over or dogs running all over her :D Put her in a bumbo and ta-da..happy baby! This week has been one of those stressful week for me..I am so glad it's Friday! Is it hot where you are at? It's 108 outside right now! crazzyyyyy!! Have a great cool weekend!

We recently went to a traditional Vietnamese wedding over the weekend. Hubby was the groomsmen and he was kind of nervous about wearing the traditional dress since he never wore one before and wasn't sure if he would look goofy in them. The wedding was emotional and beautiful and hubby look pretty cute in his ao dai. :D Since the husband was helping out with the wedding, I could only snap few pictures here and there. I love weddings because it is such a beautiful event and also an excuse to get dolled up for Kaylee and I. Kaylee had a lot of love from friends so that mommy can run around taking pix. I love traditional Vietnamese wedding since it's filled with a lot of bright colors. Our wedding was traditional and also westernized. You can view pix from our wedding day here

I recently won this pretty Shabby Apple dress from A Life's Design ! It was the perfect timing since I had a wedding to attend over the weekend. { Necklace Amrita Singh Belt HM Shoes Steven Madden } I heart this red door I stole the pretty bouquet from my beautiful friend who is the bridesmaid. My hubby was the groomsmen so had to sneak a pix with him before he runs off. Beautiful bride and groom. Hopefully I will get around to edit the photos from the wedding soon. Thanks for visiting!

Being a parent has been a blessing to me. As im looking at my child playing on the bed with her fingers, I wish that I could freeze time so I can cherish this moment forever. Been obsessed with making headbands! She pretty much got one in every color ^_^ Her laughter and smile just brighten up the room. Looking at all the photos of my baby, it makes me want to fly home and hug my parents. It breaks my heart every time they talk about how old they are :( The husband recently got me a new camera, Canon t3i here is the post . I have been playing around with the manual mode option on the video and I did a lil video of Kaylee. I know I haven't been able to update my blog much since I have been so busy. Hopefully by next week things will slow down a bit so I can sit back and relax..and blog :0) Have a great weekend!

With my jewelry that is. I love my ring holder. gift from a friend A floral bowl from my kitchen I spent my whole Sunday doing laundry, cleaning and organizing. I have been meaning to organize my jewelry for quite some time now but never got around it. Putting away the ones that I don't normally wear into boxes and leaving out the ones I wear the most for work or going out. How do you organize your jewelry? I just hope I keep it this clean from now on. This is how I organize my makeup ..but it doesnt look like this anymore :(

When I was pregnant with Kaylee, I did not purchase any maternity clothes at all! Here's a post I did of maternity fashion on some clothes I wore. I just didn't want to spend a lot of money on clothes that I would wear for short period of time. I would dig through my closet and wore whatever I could fit..or buy regular dresses that I know I can wear after having a baby. My big little black H&M dress I wore throughout my pregnancy. I know you cant really tell, but my tummy was HUGE! 4 months after baby. Best $15 I spent EVER haha! Baby K just recently turned 4 months. I have been taking a photo of her sitting in this white chair every month. See month 1-3 here. I got the idea from Making It Lovely . Hope everyone had a great long weekend! Mine definitely went way too fast and I can use another 3 day weekend. Glad I have half day this coming Friday! Our friend's mom watched Kaylee for us so we went to see Transformers 3 in 3D with our friends on Saturday

I always look forward to July 4th weekend because 1. 3 day weekend! Time to clean the closet and make more headbands for baby girl 2. Fireworks! 3. Transformers 3!!!! anyone seen it? do you love it? hate it? Im excited to see the new girl since I was not a fan of Megan Fox at all!! 4. Spending time with friends and family + FOOD! 5. Last but not least..the crazy sale at the mall! I got a cardigan for $3 at Loft and other goodie stuff! I got this dress at H&M for just $10.
