happy 100-day birthday

yeah, yeah...i know. it seems like i'm always having a birthday. but i'm not making this one up just for more cake.

in honor of my korean grandma and heritage, today i celebrated 100 days of health. historically, many babies in korea did not live past 100 days so it has become custom to celebrate once a baby has reached this milestone. my daddy had a traditional ceremony full of all the korean clothes, gifts, food, and money. mommy and daddy scaled it down a bit for me. even without the material things, we still enjoyed celebrating my first 100 days of health.
