Tesla's first day!:
Whew, time flies! Aila is almost 3 months old now, and along with T going to kindergarten, I will start back at work part-time. Gran Marie will be caring for Aila so this is a big shift for little Aila too. Today, Marie hung out at our house and cared for Aila, getting her to take a bottle of pumped milk (which I haven't been able to) while I did some errands. Grandma's touch - I know Aila will be in loving great hands. Still, there will be an adjustment to starting our days early for kindergarten. I am determined to make T's lunch everyday (to avoid cafeteria grub but also as one thing I can gift her daily), but this will require planning ahead and being very efficient in the mornings...
Other things I've wanted to note this past month:
- Teaching Tesla to slurp Japanese noodles, and wondering if she'll remember she's not supposed to slurp Italian noodles.
- Aila wearing pants with pockets, and Tesla putting Aila's binky in the front pocket "so she always has it."
- Tesla asking to be a tiger for Halloween, and for me to be her zoo keeper. She also wants a "triangle tree" for Christmas vs. decorating our largest house plant, meaning I guess we'll haul in a tree this year.
- Aila and Tesla taking baths together. Very cute. Aila seems to like soaking in the water. I think Tesla will get a real kick once Aila can sit up and grab toys.
- Having my brother and his family back in Alameda. Yay! My brother now works at GigaOm : )
- Having my pregnancy freckles fade a bit.
- Tesla taking pics and videos on my phone.
- Not going to Burning Man this year. 2nd time to miss it during this past decade. I am pretty sure/determined to go next year along with several other families with kids. We'll create our little kidsville.
- Tesla saying "super hero boobies" to me. : p
- Receiving an old picture of myself from dear Gen. Good 'ol Tokyo moblogging days. Does "moblogging" now date me?
- Tesla's picture making it onto Gizmodo.jp for their 5th anniversary : )
You were like the hottest moblogger ever
