Hanging out

BCAM at LACMA

Last weekend, we took the baby to BCAM at LACMA. Unfortunately, we couldn't take too many pictures. Actually, they wouldn't let us take any pictures. That's too bad because I really wanted to get one of Oooju in front of Koons's blue balloon dog.

However, I got a video of Oooju crawling inside one the the Richard Sera works.




We thought we could take a picture in front of the fire truck outside but right here, the security guard is trying to stop us from taking a picture.

But besides the problems with the pictures, we had a great time. Oooju loved the art work. I think contemporary art appeals to babies because everything looks so cartoonish. The baby responds really well to the bright colors and big prints.

Easter Bunny

So here's what happened with the easter bunny pictures. When we got there, it never occured to me that Oooju would cry because of the bunny. But a bunch of kids were crying and I don't blame them. Hazel knew all about babies crying because of Lucas's past experience with Santa, so she sat in on the picture and that calmed Lucas down. But even with me sitting with Oooju, he kept staring at the freaky retarded easter bunny and kept crying. I just kept thinking that it took so much time to get ready and get to the damn mall so I didn't want to waste this opportunity and I was going to get a good picture. So I told the easter bunny to get out of the picture. It worked out really well. Except Oooju looks kind of pissed off at this point.




Luckily, we took our own pictures:





These are from Easter Sunday. We took the baby to church.

The Park

As crazy as this may sound, today was the first time we took Oooju to the park. He's now almost 9months old. Sad. I know. But at least we finally made it. Anyways, he loved it. It's a park next to my parents' house. I was always afraid of going there because in high school, I had heard that the oil refineries near by dumped in the lake and it was toxic. But it's actually very beautiful. We all had such a great time. It felt so good to be out in a green space with water. Oooju and I went on the swings and the slides together. He especially loved the swing. But here he is doing what he does best--eating. Although this time, it's grass.

More videos

for some reason, I can't post any pictures right now. So here are some videos of Oooju.


We were watching an episode of House. That's where the "bitchslap" and "ass kissing" comes from. It's a great show and I can't believe the things they can say on tv these days. In one episode, some poor baby dies and House tells one of his underlings to get his head out of the dead baby's ass. I love it. But back to the video clip, in the middle of it, he totally takes a shit, which we now call buckyball. That's only if it comes out round. If it's all flat, then we call it a buckyball pancake jr.


Here, Oooju's doing this crazy screaming thing. I don't even know how it started, but he does it everytime we feed him now.

Being funny

Before Oooju put everything in his mouth, he went through this short phase of putting things next to his head. I think it's so cute and funny.
