Hello everyone, my name is Katie!



Hello everyone, my name is Katie! I am having a very strange day today, I don't know what to make of it yet...

I knew something was wrong starting last night... I was getting hungry, so I started kicking mommy's tummy so she would give me some food. But no matter how much I moved, she didn't listen! I could feel her wake up very early in the morning, but still she did not eat anything...

I can feel mommy and daddy go somewhere by taxi. I know it's not daddy driving the motorbike, because it's not so bumpy. I can hear them talking about what a nice room this is.... Maybe they are staying in a hotel? Are we on vacation? Yay!!

Now they are talking about some free stuff that they got. I don't really care, all I want is some FOOD! Hey, did you forget about me in here??

This is a picture of me and my mommy. It is getting a bit small inside here, I think I should ask for a bigger place... But wait, I can feel that mommy is scared about something. I try to be very still so I can hear what is going on...

She is laying down on the bed, but now the bed is moving! We travel for a while, and then I hear daddy say goodbye and that he will see us soon... Now many people are around and talking. And then... I really don't know what happened, but suddenly I was taken out of mommy's tummy and I was left in the cold! Did I forget to pay the rent this month?? PUT ME BACK INSIDE!! WHHHAAAAAA!

Oh wait, now I am inside a very hot box... and something else is very strange! I can move my arms and legs! It feels so free, I just keep moving my arms and stretching my legs like I'm exercising. Now the hot box is moving, and then I can hear daddy calling my name! I try to open my eyes, but everything is so bright! They put me in a room with other crying small people. But I have this nice hot box, so I think I'll just exercise for a few hours while I can, maybe I have to go back inside mommy's tummy soon?

Oh, I am so tired now! When do I get to go back home?
Finally I can hear mommy and daddy calling me, and they put me on the bed next to mommy. Hey, I know food when I see it! Mommy and daddy are surprised that it is so easy for me to eat... Ummm, did you forget that you didn't feed me all day???

Everyone is surprised that I have such long eyelashes, because Vietnamese have very short eyelashes. I try to close my eyes or hide my face when daddy wants to take my picture. You haven't signed my modeling contract yet!! But daddy says my eyes are very nice and greyish green like my Grandma Poole. Maybe tomorrow I will let them take a promo shot to boost my modeling career....

This is my daddy. I love it when he sings songs to me! My favorite songs are "Old McDonald had a farm" (but mommy has to do the baby ox sound!) and "How much is that doggy in the window?"

Here is my mommy watching me. I think her belly got hurt because I was too big inside. I hope you get better soon! Thank you so much mommy, I know you will be the best mommy ever!
