Lately, we've been trying to get out. The weather has been gorgeous and we know it will soon start to get gloomy and cold so we're taking advantage of the beautiful weekends. And given that Grandma Cho was here with us, what better excuse than to show her around. So far, we've managed to get out to Sausalito for lunch, gone to the Ferry building to shop at the farmer's market and eat, and had a picnic at Stowe Lake at the Golden Gate Park, feeding the little ducks. For all, we've navigated the outings with the two kiddies in tow and for almost all of them, C and I return exhausted but glad we had the chance to be out and about. We're getting better about taking both out and now that we've discovered that Bella likes the bjorn, its slowly getting easier (relatively speaking).
An update on T:
- He's starting to string words into sentences that don't always make sense but at least its more than just two words together. Just last week, he said "ball throw daddy tristie like
bella" - He LOVES playing ball. He loves throwing and catching a ball. He will sometimes take his hockey sticks and try to throw the ball (or ask mommy/daddy to) so he can hit it. This is a new deviation from his passion for the guitar. Before, it was all about the guitar -- couldn't do anything without it. Now, its the ball. Everything is "throw mommy"
- Ever since Bella was born, Tristin has become impatient about getting mommy and daddy's attention. So much so that when he wants to call us, instead of just calling us mommy/daddy, he screams "mommy" and "daddy". Even when we're sitting right next to him. Additionally, he gets excited and tends to call out all the names he knows (mommy, daddy, mi-mo). I love my little man but the screaming can be quite irritating. In particular when mommy is finally able (after 15 minutes of stressful attempts) to get Bella to eat. The loud yells startles the little girl and Bella starts to cry....leaving mommy back at square one. Thank you T!
I know there's more to update on T but my mind is a blank so for now, will publish and update later (otherwise, this entry will never get out). More to come..until then, enjoy!
