It’s sometimes fun, most of the time exhausting but I’m thankful I get to spend the holiday season with my family, now a full house...]]> https://mommy-diary.com/winter-break-highlights/feed/ 3 7280 https://mommy-diary.com/winter-wonderland-five-things-i-learned-in-2016/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=winter-wonderland-five-things-i-learned-in-2016 https://mommy-diary.com/winter-wonderland-five-things-i-learned-in-2016/#comments Wed, 14 Dec 2016 00:26:27 +0000 https://mommy-diary.com/?p=7137   How is everyone doing? I hope everyone is having a warm and stress-free holiday season. I took a much needed two week break from blogging due to travel. If you follow me on Instagram, you would know that I recently visited my parents in Washington about 20 miles from Downtown Seattle. This was our first time...]]> https://mommy-diary.com/winter-wonderland-five-things-i-learned-in-2016/feed/ 23 7137 https://mommy-diary.com/december-thoughts-2015/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=december-thoughts-2015 https://mommy-diary.com/december-thoughts-2015/#respond Wed, 02 Dec 2015 07:47:38 +0000 https://mommy-diary.com/lifestyle/2015121december-in-seattle/ Can you believe it’s already the first week of December? How fast this year flew by and how much has happened in 2015…I say this every year but time in adulthood travels so fast, I know I’ll be repeating the same thing when I’m one day, 60 years old. My mom recently celebrated her 60th...]]> https://mommy-diary.com/december-thoughts-2015/feed/ 0 260 https://mommy-diary.com/chapel-of-st-ignatius-seattle-university/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=chapel-of-st-ignatius-seattle-university https://mommy-diary.com/chapel-of-st-ignatius-seattle-university/#respond Thu, 10 Sep 2015 01:11:07 +0000 https://mommy-diary.com/lifestyle/chapel-of-st-ignatius-seattle-university/ I am on my way to dinner with my mother and sister and realize we have some time left until the reservation. As we’re discussing how to spend the next 45 minutes or so, we find ourselves driving by Seattle University.

The downside about this is that I lost a dependable built in childcare and we can’t see them as much as we would like to. The upside is that we now visit Seattle at least 2-3...]]> https://mommy-diary.com/places-to-visit-with-kids-in-seattle/feed/ 1 148 https://mommy-diary.com/three-hours-at-pike-place-seattle/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=three-hours-at-pike-place-seattle https://mommy-diary.com/three-hours-at-pike-place-seattle/#comments Sat, 18 Apr 2015 06:48:13 +0000 https://mommy-diary.com/lifestyle/2015417three-hours-at-pike-place-seattle/ Three hours. What does three hours mean to you? Before becoming a mother, three hours didn’t mean much. It could’ve meant an ordinary morning at the office, a dinner and few drinks with girlfriends at a hip LA restaurant or even a late night karaoke session somewhere in Koreatown. Most of the time, three hours flew by...]]> https://mommy-diary.com/three-hours-at-pike-place-seattle/feed/ 1 122 https://mommy-diary.com/2015415spring-break-in-washington/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=2015415spring-break-in-washington https://mommy-diary.com/2015415spring-break-in-washington/#respond Thu, 16 Apr 2015 11:49:22 +0000 https://mommy-diary.com/lifestyle/2015415spring-break-in-washington/ I’m currently visiting my parents in Washington state, a city located about 15-20 minutes from Downtown Seattle. After over twenty years of living in Southern California, my parents decided to move to the Pacific Northwest where air is fresher, surrounding is greener and my father can continue his veterinary practice with less stress. Despite my anxieties about traveling alone with...]]> https://mommy-diary.com/2015415spring-break-in-washington/feed/ 0 114
