This blog has also doubled as our baby book. We plan on printing it all out and keeping it for Jasper as a keep sake for later in his life.
Please know that although we will no longer post on this blog, I will gladly answer any questions anyone has about IVF or fertility concerns in Korea.
Please feel free to email me at elizabeth.jarocki@gmail.com for any questions or concerns you may have regarding Korea, IVF, fertility, etc.
Thank you for being a part of our adventures,
Mommy, Daddy, and Baby
Happy First Birthday, Jasper!
The theme was Beatrix Potter/Peter Rabbit and Jasper is so lucky to have so many people who love him.
Jasper's American Experience
First Flight: International Flight
The 2nd flight was 5 hours and he was fully awake 90% of the time. He and I both fell asleep the first hour and missed lunch. After that he was entertained by the passengers and flight attendants. When that didn't work he walked up and down the aisle and tried chatting with everyone.

11 Months
Ha! We have been falling behind on photos and everything lately.
Jasper is now 11 months and the first year is almost over.
Jasper took his first step by himself on January 1st. He has been moving so quickly and keeping us on our toes.
This is the winter semester which means I do not have classes (because of my admin position) but I have meetings and other admin work to complete. I am lucky enough to do that at home or a few meetings out. If I have meetings out I just take him with me and Joseph comes to get him as soon as he gets home from work. So happy to be able to have the option to keep him home.
Ear Infection
Jasper's first double ear infection.
Poor little man is a trouper. He pulls at his ears but he isnt crying or screaming for which we are thankful. He has been sleeping propped up on pillows for a few months so many that has helped overall.
We took him to the ENT and he diagnosed him as sinusitis/rhinitis with a double ear infection.
Hoping it mostly clears up before our flight. We dont want him to be more miserable.

Hmmm
We think it is time to get Jasper a Leapfrog set. He continues to play with and try to destroy our laptops. Can't have that. Maybe with his own Leapfrog unit he will leave our laptops alone. Ha!
