Settling In

Phew, time sure is flying with two little ones at home now!  Our last set of visitors were here last weekend - Allen's sister Ting and nephew Kai.  We spent a lot of family time together and just let the kids hang out.  We even got to celebrate Kai's 4th birthday a little early.  Esme made us sing the Happy Birthday song over and over, candles and all, since it's her favorite song.  Our candles were almost non-existent by the end of it all.

Chan is becoming a lot more alert lately and holding his head up well.  We've even started hearing more of his voice when he's doing tummy time and he's getting better and better at tracking objects.  As always he continues to eat constantly and so he's almost growing out of his newborn diapers and clothes.  His skin is pretty much done peeling at this point too.  

Instead of saying "smile" we say "show your teeth" and this is what we get

Esme continues to talk up a storm and is picking up new phrases all the time.  And she still LOVES to sing all day long!  She's continued to be very interested in "Baby Chan" and always wants to help take care of him.  Most of the time she tries to get us to stop what we're doing with him and let her take over completely.  And when she's in another room and hears him crying she runs to where he is saying "oh baby Chan, oh baby Chan" like a concerned mother.  It's pretty cute!

Boys!
