Seoul loves my toys!



I love my iTouch. I take it to work everyday so that I can listen to baseball games and music. I also love it as it lets me show off pictures of Seoul to everyone.
But lately Seoul has grown quite fond of my iTouch. She doesn't enjoy it for the same reasons as I do though. She loves it because it lets her play a piano, look at flash cards, and most importantly, make tooting sounds with the skunk. There are other animal sounds but the skunk is her favorite.
She even knows exactly where her apps are. It's the cutiest thing ever watching her fingers move across the iTouch to the different sections to get to her own area. She even has mastered a few games on it too, like the blowfish game and the bubble pop game. We have also realized that it comes in very handy at church when she doesn't want to sit still. We give her the iTouch and she is content for the next hour. I think their next model should be a babyTouch that is more durable and baby orientated.

Thank you iTouch, I love you and so does Seoul! Now Seoul, give me back my iTouch!

completely unobservant

See all those teeth? Yep, somehow I lost count and just realized today she has 14 teeth that have fully come in. I was still thinking she just had 12, possibly a 13th poking through. Maybe it's because I got tired of her biting my finger off when I'd try and feel. You would think I notice when I brush her teeth every night. Oh well - can't win 'em all, right?

Yum... strawberries!



... or in Seoul's words "aggies" when she doesn't take the time to say it properly.


The picture alone makes my mouth water! This has been my FAVORITE food for as long as I can remember. Unfortunately I may have to switch to something else because SEOUL is a strawberry piggy and eats them ALL! I'm lucky if I can snitch a tiny bite from her strawberry without her noticing. (Not generally the case but I try!)

We are growing strawberries in our garden (yay!). So every day Seoul wants to check on our strawberries. Yep, we've already had decent production and we almost always get to take 1 or 2 back to the house to wash and eat. Today I explained to Seoul we only pick and eat the all RED berries, not the GREEN berries. So, she started pointing to the different plants saying "green... green... green" and then... found a red one. It had a hole out of the side but she would not let me ignore the RED berry. I went to check on the blueberry plants and I looked over and she had moved closer to the plant with the red berry and was squatting by it. When she noticed me she stood up. I looked away to see what she'd do and she again squatted down by it and it looked like she was trying to pick it. Over there I go... to discover she had been poking it. This girl has a mind of her own! So I picked it and told her we'd go inside to wash it. I know - I'm bad - I should have thrown it away because of the hole but I cut clear around it and washed it super good. Seoul gave me a dirty look when I handed it to her because it wasn't a WHOLE berry, just a part of a berry.

Oh my - what have I created with this strawberry passion??


ooo... look what I have... (after daddy snitched a taste)




running away so she doesn't have to share (hence, the blurriness)




teasing me...




i asked for a bite... her facial expression says it all... (ya... NO mom!)




lovin' that sweet goodness... lucky girl...



I guess I can learn to share my favorite food with this angelic face!


Following the theme, she LOVES this book...



and my big strawberry shortcake doll (try telling her it's not hers!)
