Week 4 - 02/28/08 to 03/06/08

The village -- sans George Shu-Shu and Christina Shen-Shen -- that will be raising me

I'm 4 weeks old today! Last weekend, Mommy's brothers -- my Da-Jiu and Xiao-Jiu -- and their girlfriends came to see me, so now I have met all of my immediate family!


Xiao-Jiu, Daddy, Mommy, me, Po-Po, Gong-Gong, Da-Jiu

Since everyone was in town over the weekend, Po-Po said it would be okay to go ahead and celebrate my one-month birthday a few days early. We ordered a huge, yummy dinner, bought a cake, and dyed red eggs ... all in my honor!


A feast! I sat at the table but had to wait until later to enjoy the food.

I had lots of firsts this week. Daddy fed me my very first bottle this week; I liked it a lot and enjoyed spending that time with him; it was a nice change of scenery from what I normally get. He and Mommy also gave me my first bath in my big girl bathtub! I really like the bath (and being naked in general, really) but I didn't like having to get out of the warm water!


My first bottle. I'm not picky where my food comes from.


My first bath. Mmmm ... warm.

Auntie Diana, Jacob, Auntie Nina, and Uncle Giang came over to visit me on Sunday. I was so tired from Saturday, I mostly slept. But it was okay because it was rainy and I took a nap with Jacob and Auntie Nina on the couch.

Uncle Giang and Jacob. Jacob's only 6 months older than me!

Nai-Nai and Ye-Ye left after last weekend's festivities, so I'm hanging out the rest of the week with my Gong-Gong and Po-Po. Tomorrow I go for my official one-month check-up with Dr. Frank, and that marks the end of Mommy's "sitting month". Starting next Monday, it'll just be me and her hanging out during the day. It will be the first time it's just the two of us since I've been born; I think she's a little bit nervous, but I'll try to be good and not make it too difficult on her.
