Hi!

Things to Do in the Crib

Nathan likes to stay in the crib for a while after getting up in the morning or from the nap.

Faces!

These Two Make Me Laugh So Hard!

My Boy Looks Like Me

I Melted

On Kids TV Program!

It was shot last year and it's for kids TV show in China. They dubbed the sound for us so don't freak out. It's pretty funny at the end, just look at Jonathan. LOL

Press Conference!

2Y3M!

Had a bad dream and woke up crying

Who Needs a Picture for the Frame?

Oh My!

This started last month. I was in the living room and suddenly heard "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" on the bedroom door. I was scared thinking "What was that? No way......". I opened the door and Nathan was out of the crib! I thought he was sleeping!!

And then he started to open the door and walk out so quietly to the living room. He scared us a few times by doing this.  Or he would climbed out of the crib and pull our books out and read them. He also turns on all the lamps in the room.

Now I have to tell him not to climb and stay in the room for a while so that he doesn't climb out of the bed. 

Then I secretly videotaped this little guy! He didn't know I was there watching him. lol!

Love Triangle

This little girl is so cute and she's very protective of Nathan.

She said "He's not wearing a helmet" and put it on Nathan.

She tells Nathan "Didi (little brother), don't run so fast! You'll fall!" but Nathan just ignores her.  I called Nathan to come back to me and she went to Nathan and said "Ayi (Aunti) is calling you, go back!" and she just took Nathan back to me!!

She asks me why Nathan doesn't reply or talk to her. I just tell her he doesn't understand what she says. So cute~~

Laugh

Mustache!

It's sesame! 

Bed Time Story

Blueberry Face

The Face!

by the way, the hairy arms and legs are not mine.....

Whenever Nathan does something he's not supposed to do or something he's proud of, he makes this face.

He says things like "no climb" when climbing, "no fro (throw)" when throwing things, and "小心哦"( be careful) when not being careful.

We discover he chooses to speak English more often because it's easier. His favorite sentence now is "Who's this?"  He asks this question so many times a day. He points to everything and asks us "Who's this?" What's weird is that if I answer in Mandarin he sometimes will repeat the question until I answer in English.  I guess he wants to say the word, but Mandarin is a bit difficult for him to pronounce.

One time he tastes something spicy, I heard him say "spicy" to his Dad. I was surprised because I didn't know he knew the word.  He always refer to spicy as "辣辣"(hot, spicy). But Jonathan told me he always said "spicy" to him. That was the first time I realized that maybe it's clear to him that his parents speak different languages.

Speaking of spicy, he's not afraid of spicy things. I have different spicy chilly sauce in the fridge. One day I saw him sitting under the dining table with a red mouth. I thought he was bleeding. But then I found that he was just digging in the chilly sauce that he stole from the  fridge. He looked at me and said "辣辣"(hot, spicy).

We could just watch him all day and be entertained. :D
