It’s pretty amazing when two people, completely genuine in character, are so uninhibitedly in love. It was obvious from the reactions of friends and family that everyone was so happy for them.

Congratulations again, Autumn and Sam. I hope you have a great honeymoon!! Thank you so much for having us, and thank you for your warm spirits and for the kindness you have poured over us. Also, a big thanks to my dear friend Connie from Expressive Studio for joining me on this wedding.

warmly,
Ai Ling

Calista - Well done on the great photo shoot. I like the one they are kissing, it’s so sweet!

day 7

It’s been a week since Ian was born. We still can’t believe we are parents but we are getting to know each other better everyday. Everyday is like a new adventure for us. We are constantly fascinated by Ian’s every little movement and every funny little noises he makes.

So here he is, our pride and joy, at one week old.

love,
Ai Ling and David

Christine - He looks just like you!

Sherene - Look at all that beautiful hair!! He’s adorable!

vanessa - oh my! beautiful.
yes, I know the feeling – you can just look at them forever can’t you?

Chandra - Is his hair black or dark brown like Gigi’s? I know lots of people are going to say he looks like you because he looks Asian. But really, I think he looks like David-if David was Asian. :D

ailing - hi christine, at the first glance, he does look like me, but then if you look closely, a lot of his features are like his dad’s. :)

sherene, yes, the hair!! That’s what everyone said at the hospital.

vanessa, how are you doing?
you are so right… we can just stare at him for hours, that is, whenever we can keep our eyes open anyway!! LOL

hey chandra, his hair is dark brown with reddish highlights.
Today David looked at Ian’s eyes and confirmed that his eyes are actually greyish/greenish, not brown like mine.

Hlies - AI LING! He’s sooooooooooooo cute! I’m so happy for you! Best of Luck!

Krista - He’s beautiful! Congrats!

ailing - Thank you! :)

Zorislav - I wish my mother was a photographer! Lucky fellow :)

baby ian
Baby Ian was born at 9.53pm on September 12, 2008.
8lb 1.2oz, 20 inches. We cried, we laughed, we went over the moon.
This little bundle of joy is the best thing God has given us.

love,
Ai Ling

Emily - Oh My — What a handsome fellow! Congratulations :)

Wei - Hi and Congratulation!

Chandra - He doesn’t look like a squished newborn! His cheeks are full! But I want to see his hair. They always uncooperatively sleep at the beginning when you are trying to show them off.

Connie - Ohhhh – congratulations Ai Ling, I have thought about you everyday. I am so happy he is here and healthy. Congratulations to your whole family! Lots of love to all of you. He is beautiful!

vanessa - OH MY!!! He is so beautiful. And a week apart exactly from our little man. Congrats, and all our love. We are right there with you two. Drop me a line if you need any mama support ;)
