We’ve been teaching Mckayla to be gentle with MeiMei. She used to pull poor MeiMei’s hair out whenever she tries to pet her. Now she pats MeiMei, but sometimes still a little too hard for MeiMei’s liking. Now Mckayla’s walking a little bit on her own, it’s even more trouble for MeiMei. She loves to follow Mckayla around and basically right behind her by just a step or two. Mckayla is not really stable on her feet yet and she would either sit or fall ”unannounced” on her butt. Many times, she has landed on MeiMei. But for some unknown reason (maybe it’s all the food Mckayla’s been throwing at MeiMei), MeiMei still loves to follow Mckayla despite being sat on a few times already. Nanny told me yesterday she took Mckayla out to play in the backyard and left MeiMei in the kitchen. Mckayla kept looking in the kitchen when they were walking out. When she realized MeiMei was left inside, she started whining until Nanny let MeiMei out to play with them in the yard. This morning, after another sleepless night (thanks to Mckayla), Mckayla was up early again. MeiMei was still asleep in bed while I was in the shower and Mckayla was playing in the playpen by herself. When I got out of shower, I put Mckayla on the bed while I got ready. MeiMei finally woke up and came out of the blanket. Mckayla was so excited when she saw MeiMei and kept smiling and clapping her hands. MeiMei walked up to Mckayla and licked her cheek. In return, Mckayla gave MeiMei a big hug and even planted a kiss on her head. It was so cute, wish I had a camera to capture the moment.
