Juggling nightmare

Dear Khoa and Mai an,

It's quite unfortunate, but nightmarish would still be an understatement to describe the last week. I don't know why but big brother has been so nap resistant; it takes 2.5 hours from the time we start until big brother gives up and falls asleep for nap each day. Of course, little sister is suffering through those time too, often get waken up by all the noise and commotion. Sometimes, Little Sister would take her own nap and even after she wakes up, Big Brother is still wide awake. Mommy keeps on wishing that things will get better, but haven't yet. Poor little sister has to go through all of this - Mommy feels so terrible about making little sister's life so rough.  We also went to visit a few preschools to see which one is suitable for Big Brother, but Mommy is so dreading the anxiety of separation that Big Brother will feel when we drop you off. This week, Daddy gave Big Brother a haircut, which went much better than the previous times. There were no resistance - though it was bit too short, but I am sure hair will outgrow itself very quickly. 

The weekend is much better because Daddy can help take care of Big Brother while Mommy devotes all her time to Little Sister, who has grown to be such a beautiful precious little girl (despite all the hardship and lack of sleep in her life thus far). We had a relaxing weekend with not much activities, perhaps because Mommy is too tired and so is Daddy, so we just hung out at home. Little Sister was going through teething (or so we think) and was quite fussy throughout Friday and Saturday. Luckily, the fussiness didn't last very long. Little Sister still had the rash (which we initially thought was diaper rash, but now not so) - so we are trying to schedule her for a dermatologist look. Little sister has given us a lot more smiling out loud these days. Today, when Mommy was giving a bath you had so much fun when we were playing with the water and jump up and down.

Mommy wishes both of my angels beautiful dreams tonight. Much Love.
