Just A Little Bit More

Just a bit more and I'll be crawling. I know I can, I know I can!

I got her shot

Hannah before we went to get her 2 month's shot(right on Chinese New Year Day). Poor baby had no idea what was happening. She was super happy to be going out, then I brought her to Coastal Health. One shot on the left leg and two shots on the right leg. My poor baby cried so much. I really don't want to take her to her 4 month's shot. :( 

Glasses USA

A couple of years ago I used to work for a popular eye wear company (let's call them L). I know first hand how much glasses cost at a retail setting. Eyeglasses at L was not cheap, on average it cost $300 for a pair of single vision glasses. A pair of bi-focal/progressive glasses can cost over $600. Most people change their prescription every 1 to 2 years. Great looking eyewear don't have to cost an arm or a leg.

The smart way to buy glasses is to buy them online. You get much more selection when you buy glasses online and at a way better price. My solution to buying glasses online is GlassesUSA.com. They offer a great selection of glasses (some which I have sold at L for double if not triple the price) and basic single vision lens are included. You can also add option to your lens such as making it thinner, high impact resistant, anti-scratch coating or premium anti-reflective coating. The best thing about the site is that you can “try on” their glasses by visiting their virtual mirror. All you have to do is upload a picture of yourself.

Those Mom

I have finally came to the conclusion that I become "those" mom. What is "those" mom? "Those" mom are mom whose world is their kids. I admit to thinking that my baby is the more cutest/prettiest/darling/charming. I can't help it, and I am sure most parent agree to feeling this way about their baby. To quote Twilight "It was like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time". To show off how cute my baby is, here is some photos from her newborn shoot. :)
