Young, back with another post. This summer has F L O W N by! Going on vacation to Oregon (visiting Eugene and Crater Lake) and hosting family (both Tim and my family!) as Aiden celebrated his first birthday.
Aiden is now 13 months old and on his way to walking consistently on his own. Just in time, as he’ll be the ring bearer at Tim’s cousin’s wedding this October. 
We can’t believe it, but Aiden turned 1 today. Crazy!!! Truly, it’s been a great year: Aiden has hit every major milestone on time and seems to be a bit ahead on the walking thing: He took his first few steps two weeks ago. Personally, I (Tim) had a few sentimental moments today when wishing Aiden a “Happy Birthday”. It has been quite the ride this past year We love him so, so much. Enjoy each of Aiden’s month pics.
You didn’t think we took that few pictures, did you? Indeed, a big highlight of the trip for me (Tim) was the food. My favorite new Korean dish, bibim naengmyeon, was a wonderful mix of sweet, spicy and yummy goodness. And while getting out with Aiden was challenging, we did make it around to a few sites in Seoul. The river walk featured in a few pictures was especially nice, even with the curious school kids running circles around us. Hopefully we’ll make it down to Jeju-do and Busan next time (two places I wish we had made it to, but didn’t).
Hello! We’ve been MIA for a while, getting ready and then traveling to Korea for 2 weeks. We got back a week ago and are posting some pics of our time there. It was a great trip in many ways, hard in others. Highlights for us included meeting/seeing family and getting to introduce Aiden and Tim to them as well as seeing some of the sights in Seoul. The hard part was that Aiden had a hard time adjusting to a new sleep location and had to sleep in the bed with Young most nights. We’re glad we went, but we’ll be glad to travel with Aiden when he’s a bit older - when he doesn’t need two naps a day, and can feed himself!
Enjoy the pics!
One week ago, Aiden blew by his 9-month birthday, literally. He’s crawling, standing, climbing, crying, laughing, exploring and bouncing all over the place. It’s hard to keep up, but it’s energizing and fun for us. Here’s a look into the past few days since Aiden passed up 3/4 of a year. Oh, and stay tuned for some fun footage later this week of Aiden climbing up our staircase. Amazing stuff, seriously.
Yes, this post is coming two weeks late, but we thought you’d enjoy some pics of Aiden in some Easter gear. Hope it was a blessed Easter for you all. Thinking of you in Seattle.
I’ll just say it straight: Aiden has the greatest laugh. We are biased of course, but seriously… try not to smile when Young reads “Peek-a-boo” and Aiden laughs hysterically. Good luck!

Shameless book plug: Peek-a-Who?
We don’t do this one very often with Aiden, but he sure enjoys it when we do. Hope you like razzberries, too!

Happy St. Patty’s Day, all! Here is a greeting from Aiden…hint: the smile comes at the end.

We can’t really explain this one since it lasted for a day or two, but Aiden had a strange, nose-scrunch thing going on. Not sure if he was allergic to the camera or his own laughter, but it’s hilarious to watch. By the way, most of these videos were taken within the last month or so. Expect a few more over the next week or two.
