Definitely a Girl

I thought being on maternity leave would give me more time to blog.  But I have been busy with cooking for people and making Mui-mui's scrapbook.  Mui is now 15 mons old.  She actually understands alot of thing in Cantonese.  Things that she understands are sit, eat it, don't eat it, kiss, where is your shoes? and give me the book. She can climb up and slide down the baby slide in our house.  She is still very attach to me.  When I am at home with her, she always wants to be by my side.  And sometimes that's not enough, I have to hold her.  She is us curious, friendly, outgoing, and a joy to have.  Whenever, I take her to the park she would just walk up to a stranger and talk to her.  She would even want them to hold her.  Hmmmmm....not sure if she thinks everyone is her care giver. 

She is definitely a girl.  She loves shoes; her shoes and  other people's shoes.  We let her wear the pink soft Robeez shoes (see pix - she is ready to go out) inside the house to give her more traction.  I would take them off when I put her to nap.  As soon as she wakes up, she points to them and wants me to put them back on.  Or when I change her diaper and take off her shoes, she would want them back on immediately.  When I hold  my keys and purse, she knows we are going to go out.  So she would find her outside shoes and head to our laundry room, sit down on the floor and raise her leg so I can help her with her shoes. 

Praise the Lord that we found a nanny to come to our house and care of Mui when I go back to work.  She goes to our church and also takes care of our friends' mom.  I just hope she will be good and can take good care of Mui and the boys.  I am a little nervous about how it will be since we don't know her that well.
