Lauren turns 100 .... days!!

Lauren turned 100 days on New Year's Eve exactly. We were able to celebrate in traditional Kwon fashion at Grandma and Grandpa's house in Long Island. After a 3 hour nap, mommy woke me up since Uncle Dennis had to get back to Aunt Janet and my new nephew Isaiah quickly. So I was fed and changed into my fashionable outfit without even giving me much time to really wake up.

Hello! Why am I in stockings and shoes!?

Why are there so many people? Mommy, I don't want to take pictures...

Please mommy, I don't want to! Matthew, a man's character is always determined first by their hair -- you have to make sure your hair is nice and slick.

Hey guys, I think I see Santa down there! Kisses for the 100 days old! :)

Oh Lauren, it's okay. Let me fix your hair -- hold still!

You have to smile like me and they'll all go away quickly. I'll tell you a secret -- I have a cookie in my pocket that I'll share with you if you smile.

Ready? Come closer....okay, remember our secret?...

You forgot? Okay, it starts with a c and ends with an e. You still don't know?

Maybe I'll spell it out for you... What?! You can smell my cookie?

Aw, phew...it's still there. You scared me. See, Matthew joined us now...

Okay, Matthew tell Lauren I have a cookie for her later. Smile!

Don't cry. I didn't eat the cookie just yet. :)

I am not pleased by being woken up. Who are all these people? Do I know them?

The weather calls for sunny skies hence my sun hat. My brother, Matthew, and cousin, Leah, join me in my photo op.

Oooh, candles and fire.....now they are blown out!

Must ... get .... to ... the ... cake ... before my brother and Leah get there!

Almost got it.....aw man, face plant!

Daddy, help me! Thank you for all my bling! :)

Quite happy in gold ... please can I have some more?

Finally, happy at the end. Perfect timing.

Peace. Love. Happy new year!

Love,

Leah and Matthew

Who do we look like?

The grandparents keep saying we look exactly like each other. My parents think otherwise. What do you think?

Matthew is about 5 months old here and Lauren is a bit over 3 months old.

Matthew (22 months) and Lauren (99 days old!)

Lauren is 99 days old today! Tomorrow is her 100th day and we'll be celebrating at the Kwon household in Long Island. In true celebratory fashion, we decided to take some snaps before she is considered "over the hill". haha.

Lauren, you need to not only look at the camera but smile as well. And you have to look "cool".

Now, get ready, when Mom says cheese, you have to smile. Ready?? Go!

Okay, now let's syke mom out...don't smile when she says "cheese"....hahhahahhaha!

Hee hee....Lauren, I don't know how you keep such a straight face. Smile!

Fine, if you are not going to smile, then you can't use my arm as a pillow.

What? You don't care? Okay, now let's trying smiling while we sit up together....

Are you smiling? I can't see your face ... stop eating your fingers, mommy doesn't like that.

Mom, she won't stop eating her fingers. Here, eat my fingers then....

Okay, ready? I'm holding you tight so you can't reach your fingers. Ha.

Smile! If you don't smile, I'm going to tickle your head. Haha...

Mom, are you done now? We are both getting tired of saying cheese. ALL DONE!

All about me -- Lauren!

Merry Christmas! I hope everyone had a nice holiday. We all got back from a fun filled week in Toronto a few days ago and immediately went to visit our newest cousin, Isaiah Joonhyuk Kwon! He was born 12/23 weighing in at 8lbs 1oz. He is one handsome looking boy and I'm sure my mom will post pictures soon. I also got baptized in Toronto and my godfather will be sending those pictures over at some point so I'll have to post them up later.

In the meantime, here are some more recent photos of me!

Mommy and Daddy took so many pictures of my brother when he was little and they never take enough photos of me. So I told them to start paying attention before I go off to college...

So at my latest 3 month checkup, I weighed 13lbs 6ozs, 24 inches tall and head circumference of 37cm (5th percentile). So basically I am of over average weight and height with a small head. Boo hoo.

The latest development is my smiling capabilities. My brother was definitely more smiley than I was but I still have an infectious smile. Just look at me, you'll smile too. :)

And look, I'm now old enough to hold up my head in the Bumbo!

It's a new perspective sitting up on my own! I think I kind of like it.

Of course mommy tried to capture my sneeze, but she just missed it. Ha.

Here I am in my first mini skirt from my Godfather. It's a bit big so it looks like a full skirt but really it's a velvet mini skirt. I can't wait to wear it when I get a bit taller. And of course my Godfather bought me my first pair of Uggs. Don't I look stylish?

Okay mommy, I think I'm done now....please..

NO MORE PICTURES!!!
