Cupcakes!

Cupcakes had a rough morning. When she woke up at her normal time, Mama was too tired to get up to play with Cupcakes. Mama put Cupcakes down next to her. Cupcakes slept some more with Mama until Daddy put her back in her crib. Cupcakes woke up, and that was that. For the rest of the morning Cupcakes cried. Cupcakes doesn't nap as much as she did before she went to daycare. When she is hungry or tired the signals are not always clear anymore. She cried on and off for the morning, and it was a little difficult giving her the bottle. Mama saw what Vikki was talking about when she said that Cupcakes cried unless held or just fussy in general.

Uncle Chris spent the night and taught Cupcakes to count in German.

Cupcakes calmed down around the time we were meeting Auntie Brooke for lunch. We had lunch at Mae Phim. We missed Jeab. She doesn't work on the weekends. See Cupcakes eye Auntie Brooke's phad thai - she may be ready for solids already. We heard that Uncle Scott is bummed that he doesn't get to see Cupcakes more often. Cupcakes says, "Hi, Uncle Scott! I look forward to meeting you, and I hope you stay updated with my growth via the blog!" After lunch Auntie Brooke treated everyone to Starbucks.

Afterwards we went shopping at Costco. Look at Cupcakes in the new stroller that Uncle Michael and Auntie Penny got her! Mama needs to read the instruction manual to see when Cupcakes can start riding in it*. It's very awesome. Mama can push Cupcakes around with one finger, and it's super easy making 360-degree turns. Thank you very much, Uncle Michael and Auntie Penny! It's a treat for Mama! The stroller has a great hood to shield Cupcakes from the sun. Uncle Michael and Auntie Penny, when will we receiving the cover for the rain? We live in Seattle after all.

We had
hoped to visit with Aunties Kim and Yvonne and maybe take a walk in their neighborhood. They had company. Aunties Kim and Yvonne, Cupcakes is growing very fast!

When we got home, Cupcakes let Mama and Daddy c
lean her up, and she passed out in no time. She didn't even drink very much milk! Daddy had hoped to take Cupcakes out for a walk in the gorgeous weather, but he will have to wait for another day.

Auntie Angela's second baby is due soon. We'll want to visit her soon!


* Supposedly as long as a baby can hold up the head, s/he can sit in the BOB as young as 6-8 weeks old.
