Today was a "good" day - it would have been "perfect" if Big Brother did not resist Mommy at nap time and Mommy lost her temper yet again. I was frustrated because Little Sister was crying because she was very tired too, but Big Brother keeps refusing to listen to Mommy and would do everything but sleep. It wasn't until 2pm that you fell asleep, and then your sister fell asleep right after. Mommy had about 2 hours break when both of you were asleep, though Mommy had Little Sister in Moby. However, Big Brother ended up getting about 2.5 hours and woke up happy. You seem to be so attached to Mommy today, not sure why? Daddy was able to go into to work late today, so he spent most of the morning with Big Brother while Little Sister and Mommy took a short morning nap.
Then the three of us head out for our morning walk to the park. Big Brother met up with your Korean friend Patrick in the park near our complex where you had so so much fun. You climbed the rocks, raced for the tennis ball, ate snacks together. Mommy is glad that you had fun interacting with a friend - hopefully you will be come close to him and gain a friendship. You didn't even want to go home; we didn't end up home until 12:15. At night, Mommy had so much fun reading together with you. You continue to impress me with your knowledge of words and putting words together. We read the Amos McGee book today and you know everything about the book that Mommy and Daddy asked you. Then, Mommy gave you a bath where we had a lot fun playing with the bubbles and then Mommy put you to bed since Daddy is still feeling under the weather and coughing a lot. Mommy didn't have a lot of luck feeding you today; Mommy just gave you milk while Daddy did all the feeding for you today. My favorite moments with you lately are when we sing together. Right now, your favorites are "con chim non", "jingle bells", "santa clause is coming to town", besides the old ones like "abc", "i love you", "wheels on the bus", "5 jumping monkeys". Mommy will try to record when you sing with me so that you can have it for memory.
Little Sister had a good day sleeping today (well much better than previous days). 1.25 hrs in the morning, 1.5 hours midday, and then another 2 hours in the afternoon before going to bed at around 6:15 pm at night. You could have slept more in the afternoon had Big Brother had gone to sleep earlier, but it was much better than the whole last week. You only slept the first nap with Mommy in bed, the rest were in the Moby. Mommy is really worried about what will happen when Mommy will return to work in two days; it is going to be tough for you with lots of crying. It will certainly make Mommy's heart bleed with all your crying, but we don't have a choice. Mommy wishes that she can stay home with the two of you forever. Tonight, you are not sleeping that well - keep waking up. Seem like you have a lot of gas; we have been doing a lot of burping when you call for us throughout the night. Last night was rough on Mommy - you were up from 3 to 4pm, presumably because something was uncomfortable, but after that hour you slept all through the morning. You were very conversational today, keep talking with your brother and Mommy whenever you are awake (with a lot of big smiles of course). Except for the afternoon when your Brother was cranky and you were sleepy, you were nothing short of a princess today. Like previous days, you seem to never settle down, you always want to bring your head upward and trying to sit up (but you are still too weak).
Mommy will stop for now. Mommy is sending thousands of kisses to my prince and princess. Sleep tight my Loves.
