How can a baby that weighs less than 20lb require 70lb worth of stuff for a 7 night stay in Mexico? This is only what went in the luggage – clothes, food, diapers, and a few toys. On top of that, we still have to bring her stroller and car seat.

Vengeful MeiMei
MeiMei is not a big fan of suitcases. With families coming in and out all the time from out of town, she has associated luggages with separation. She gets upset when she sees people packing. She has done this before to my sister and mom in the past, and she did it again yesterday. As my [...]

Daredevil
Mckayla really doesn’t know her own limits. She’s been pulling herself up to standing position the past few days using the push cart. Her legs are not strong enough to hold up for more than 10 seconds. But obviously, she doesn’t understand that those round and chubby legs are only for looks and they really [...]

Standing Up
We went back to our house on Saturday while few friends and their babies came over for BBQ and swim in the pool on the hot sunny day. At first, Mckayla didn’t like the water - it was a bit too cold even for me. After I hung out in the sun for a while, she got really warm and [...]

Logan’s Here!
Logan Brown finally made his landing, just one day before his expected due date. I went tio visit the Browns in the hospital while Mckayla stayed home with Ted. Logan is so cute and alert! He was all nicely bundled in the blabnket but his big brown eyes were wide open, checking to see who was [...]

Hot Summer Day
It was hot today! Mckayla went to her swimming class and had a great time. She got dunked in the water 5-6 times and swam about 4-5 feet now. And she even did some of her “kick kick kick” while under water. When we got home, it was still very hot, so we jumped back [...]

Oops! I forgot to bring…
I knew this was going to happen any time because I pack my pumping supplies in the morning right before I leave for work. And today, when I clocked out for lunch to go pumping, I realized I didn’t bring the horns. I left in such a hurry this morning that I left the horns in [...]

Portland, Oregon
We went up to Portland for Ted’s cousin’s wedding for the weekend. Mckayla had a very busy weekend entertaining the family. She was being passed around like a little toy for the most of the time – she was pretty good for the most time, as long as she didn’t see Ted or me. She even [...]

Separation Anxiety
Mckayla has definitely developed a sense of “object permanence”. According to the books, babies begin to learn that things and people exist even when they’re out of sight. They typically start to play the “I drop & you pick-up” game, when they drop things over the side of the high chair, look for them, and [...]

Doggie Diapers
MeiMei peed in our bed again last night. With her recent frequent accidents, I am contemplating on getting her doggie diapers. I googled dog diapers and found this intersting product called “Peepers“. They even sell “fancy pants” to cover the diapers. Mckayla’s diapers are much cheaper compared to these ones – $12.95 for a package of 10! Maybe [...]
