To my Owen,

Hello my baby! You just turned 7 months and you love eating! So far, you've had carrots, avocados, bananas, butternut squash, green beans, and sweet potato. You have loved every single one of them. I am so happy you are a good and joyful eater. If I don't feed you fast enough, you even get a bit demanding.

Another exciting event was your first trip to Manhattan last week! I forgot how difficult it is to find a bathroom big enough to have a changing table in the city, but we managed to change you in a Barnes and Noble and in the car. You were a good trooper. You actually went to the city two days in a row. The first day we met up with Uncle Will and we went to Sugarfish. You were a little fussy there because you were tired, but you fell asleep in my arms and I gently placed you back into your stroller. We also met up with Aunt Da Hee and went to Madison Square eats, where you were still passed out. Finally, we went to Uncle Tae and Will's apartment, and even got to go up to the rooftop to enjoy the view. I think you liked it too.

The next day, we went in to the city with grandma and met Aunt Soojin at Ippudo, mommy's favorite ramen place in the city. We also went to go get cream puffs at Bibble and Sip. Mommy and daddy were very happy and full :)

Tomorrow will be your first day of daycare at Bayer Discovery days. Mommy is nervous, but also hopefully that you will do great! I am praying for wonderful teachers to love you and make you laugh while mommy is at work. Also praying for God's protection over the daycare and the children, and all daycares and all children! We hope that you will learn sharing, kindness, respect, love, joy, and learn to have lots of laughter! Love you so much.

Love,
Mommy
