So, today's the first official weekday with the Nanny (vacation back in Canton) not here. And let me say, easy as pie. But I'm not going to lie, there were a few challenges with my calls popping up and Dave saying he has to work and send out emails and call so-and-so. But overall a very successful day (thanks to our little helper - see video below). I did manager to cook up my breakfast burrito and wWe even got to go to the park after her nap. Liv is growing up so fast. While at the park, she tried socialize and tried to emulate the big kids romping around, going down tall slides to swirly slides to even trying to slide on her back backwards! Of course she wasn't able to do that herself, but was ever so delighted when her 阿姨 and I helped her lie on her back and slide down backwards! She's not the most coordinated, nor agile, kid on the block, but she's got the dare devil in her with a bit of self-preservation! In the evening, we had 公公 come to the rescue with his famous oxtail stew (with no oxtail, only beef, out of consideration of the gwei-lo...hehe) and his mushroom medley dish - which Olivia loves! We do miss our Nanny's help, but I for one am enjoying the quiet annoyance-free-air of this household...well not so quiet...haha.Tuesday, August 2, 2011
