The Royal Tenenbaums is the BEST MOVIE EVER!

I'm in Love with NATTO :D (Part 2)

Yep. I still eat Natto once a day :)

(Sometimes, I have it twice a day and it's so good!)

Here are how I eat Natto :)

1. Natto + Avocado + Scrambled Egg + Brown Rice

2. Natto + Raw Egg Yolk + Dried Salted Seaweed + Brown Rice

3. Natto + Kimchi + Fried Egg + Avocado + Dried Salted Seaweed + Brown Rice

(This is my current favorite recipe.)

Frozen Fever

Audrey loves "Frozen".

She calls it "(S)nowman".

Whenever she wants to listen "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?",

she says "(S)nowman" and points my CD Player.

She also loves "in Summer" too.

We went to Hallmark after church on Sunday.

They had itty bittys® Elsa Stuffed Animal and itty bittys® Anna Stuffed Animal.

We got her Elsa and Anna plus Olaf.

She knew who Olaf is but got confused with Elsa and Anna.

I taught her who Elsa is and who Anna is.

She know who Elsa is and who Anna is. (She's so smart!)

After I changed Audrey's diaper, 

She wanted to change Anna's, Elsa's and Olaf's diapers also :)

She is so sweet!

I'm in Love with NATTO :D

Have you had Natto before?

My hubby and I have had it for a week 

and I'm not sure what my hubby thinks of it

but I'M SO IN LOVE WITH IT!

To be honest with you, I did not like it at first

but I found some awesome recipes and I eat Natto everyday :)

I went to H Mart(Asian grocery store) last week and this week

and got some Natto based on the package design.

Wish I could read Japanese though :/

Here are my favorite Natto recipes so far.

Hope you will like them :)

1. Natto + Curry with brown rice

2. Natto Toast

-Butter the bread and put Natto mixed with honey 

3. Natto + Kimchi + Shredded Salted Dried Seaweed

(This is my No.1 Natto recipe!!)

I fed Audrey Natto with rice once 

and she did not like it.

I used to give her Banana Tofu Shake(banana + tofu + warm milk) 

every monring but now I give her Banana Natto Shake every morning.

I put Natto instead of tofu in her shake and she still drinks it :)

Go, Audrey! Go, Natto!

Snowy Weekend

It SNOWED a lot over the weekend.

Our church got cancelled and so did the bible study.

Audrey loves to sing "Do you want to build a snowman?"

(We listen to this song everyday.)

We went outside to build a snowman finally!

She was having fun at first.

Audrey tried to catch a snowflake with her tongue for the first time and it worked!!!

  

Then, she got scared somehow.

Snow wasn't sticking so we couldn't make a snowman.

We forced her to make a snow angel.

(Maybe that's why she was upset.)

And this is Audrey's snow angel :)

We came inside and warmed ourselves by the fire and watch "Frozen" for the first time.

We didn't get to watch the whole movie though. Somebody got cranky after an hour.

We don't have TV in our living room.

I didn't let her watch any kids video until she turned 18 month 

except when we were on the plane on the way back to the States from Korea last November 

when she was 15.5 month old. 

She was awake for 10-11 hours and slept 2-3 hours on the plane

and I was going crazy.

Luckily, Pororo was playing on the plane so I let her watch it for 10 minutes several times.

When she turned 18 month old, 

my hubby and she started watching "The Octonauts" for 10 minutes once a week.

It helps when I trim/cut Audrey's finger nails :p

Happy New Year!

Audrey is turning 19 months at the end of this month.

Her favorite books are "Good night, Gorilla", "Good Evening, Dear Moon"

and "Stop, Elephant, STOP".

She loves reading books.

She loves eating food, especially noodles like pasta and ramen.

We gave her Jajangmyun this week and she was in love with it!

She says lots of words in Korean and English already.

She hates getting her diapers changed.

(Once it gets warm, we will start potty training. Good luck, Audrey!)

She also doesn't like brushing her teeth.

(I don't like brushing my teeth either 

but I hate going to dentist more than brushing my teeth :p)

We put her Hanbok for the New Year and she looks adorable!

Hope you are having a good year so far :)

I like to listen to children's songs in Korean since I used to sing them when I was a kid.

I've been listening to them all day today. 

I think I'm gonna listen to NON-children's songs tomorrow :p
