one milestone after another... i can't believe that my baby is already six months old. six months... it seems like it was yesterday when i got admitted to the hospital. gees~
anyways, a lot of people have been asking me if i'm still breastfeeding.. and the answer is *drum roll* YES! i mean.. if you're going to wake up to feed the baby in the middle of the night ANYWAYS, why not just breastfeed? it saves a lot of time and it's so convenient. i was strongly against formula because i wanted my baby to have the best of the best.. haha :) don't get me wrong there's nothing wrong with feeding formula.. but there are some things that breast milk has that formula doesn't. i also love the bond that we share when he's eating~ i'm very fortunate that my milk hasn't dried out yet~ six months was the max i was going to go... but i think i'm going to shoot for six more months~ we'll see. :) on the other hand, we did put him on solids and he's been eating it really well. i'm so proud of him.. my hungry hungry hippo!
this month, he started rolling from his stomach to his back and vice versa, started eating solids, saw his cousin for the first time, went on a road trip to baltimore and DC, got a new car seat and stroller, went to the beach, and was on babycenter.com!
six months... six more months and he's one year old! i have a feeling that day will come very soon! :(

as i'm sitting in the office writing my last post in Silver Spring, MD... i'm kinda getting sad. :( who'd knew this day would come so fast? too bad we couldn't stay til our lease was up... but MD / DC treated us very well. ESPECIALLY our apartment. lol~ God... that apt. spoiled me. wah...! one day we'll be back... i'm going to miss working here with the people i enjoy working with, taking the metro down to DC, walking to Giant whenever i got hungry.... sighhhhh. i'm going to miss the dimsum in Oriental East, or the even the cheap Chinese lunch specials. man... i'll stop here. my hormones are getting to me i think i might tear! haha~~
okay so... dennis and i have been joking about our apt about how there's a ghost living with us because sometimes it smells like somebody died in our laundry room. but lately.. some weird shit has been happening. it all started when i closed my laptop and all of a sudden the calendar that was sitting on the corner decided to fall. my husband thinks it because i moved the table, but i didn't move the table!! anyways.. the loud bang scared us because it fell onto the printer. then, two nights ago before we were going to fall asleep i noticed a light at the corner of my closet. i asked if he had turned it on, and he said no... again, he has no reason to. but i thought the light wasn't on.. it couldn't have been because nobody went in it.. but before going to the bathroom i opened the door, and the light was.. on... T_T
ok. so last night.. i was going to the bathroom to wash up and i don't know why but i decided to open my closet door and the light was.. on... again. no idea why. being freaked out i was heading towards the bathroom where dennis was washing up and as i was walking and asking him about the light, the fuse decided to go out. ONLY IN THE BATHROOM, AND IN MY BEDROOM. and the water was still running so i almost had a heart attack. literally... almost had a heart attack. i grabbed onto dennis and i didn't let go. no.. i couldn't let go. luckily dennis has the gift of falling asleep in .05 seconds but i couldn't sleep at all yesterday... T____________T
i'm scared... good thing tonight is our last night in Maryland! actually no.. i take that back. i will miss this place...... :( this apartment was SO cozy and it was so "us". boohooooo.......
