Adelia hangs out with some of her cousins and mommy. We will have to wait a few more months to get her picture with daddy's family.

A mother's arms can keep a baby safe from even the most savage of fruit.


This sucks!  I am too young to eat any of this stuff.

Between the business in the house and all the 'strangers' who handled her from time to time, Adelia spent much of her 100-day celebration in a bad mood. This is a traditional lay-out to wish her a bountiful life.

Adelia shows off some of her 100-day celebration haul. She eventually received a total of three gold bracelets and three gold rings.

Adelia shows off her new ladybug pillow. Please note that, in the sunlight, you can see that her eyes are not black but dark hazel. It seems that daddy's genes are not completely recessive.


So tired

Ansan, Korea  May 03, 2006

Crying, eating and pooping all day can take a lot out of a baby

Ansan, Korea  May 03, 2006

Hail Adelia! All 62 centimeters (24.2 inches) of her. Not bad for a three-month old.


"I'm much cuter than this frick'n bug."

Terrible baby abuse

Terrible baby abuse

Ansan, Korea  March 15, 2006

Adelia's maternal grandparents freaked out when they saw her on her belly. They think it is cruel to the poor, weak, helpless baby.

Ansan, Korea  February 02, 2006

I don't know if it was the sound of my voice or the nurse handling her, but Adelia woke up and looked at me (or rather, looked in my direction since she can't focus yet) when I started talking to her.


Sleep well.  It's been a long day.
