Tomorrow, Kyler turns 17 months old, but I, as the “very on top of everything mom” that I am, just put together his first year collage yesterday. Every month, I put him in a 12-month sized onesie and put him in his crib. This is not an original idea. I think I Googled it somewhere……

Advice to First American-born Asian Parents
I’ve been randomly looking back at old baby pictures. It’s already been 4 months since little man entered the world. And I get sad. The first picture of him at home from the hospital was with not his dad nor with me. Actually, I wasn’t in any photos with him when I first got home….
{DIY} Week to Week Maternity Album
I am so excited about this project. What good blogger doesn’t like to have more documentation? I have always been a fan of custom published books, like the one I did for our wedding, so a first pregnancy almost begs for it.

{DIY} Maternity Photography Session
Over the weekend, we had maternity photos taken by another artist. But as the artists of don{thao} photography, we also took some of our own. I was already dressed and made up – why not? Yes, that is what happens in our home – I am in my third trimester, still craving chocolate and sugar…
Sisters Get Pregnant Together
I am going through something pretty cool. My little sister and I are both expecting! AND we’re both having boys! Based on the expected due dates, they’d be 6 weeks apart. You already know you’ll have a family support system when you get knocked up, but this gives ‘support’ a whole new meaning. I think…
