We talked about eating out. But eating out with Luca was not much fun these days. He was like Curious George and couldn't be quiet for a second. Not his fault. It's "Terrible 2"'s fault.
Yes, Pappa just turned 25 years old, if you had to ask this private question.
Ouch! But again, we forgot what was the cause of the pain. (That's why you cannot trust a writer when she tells you, "Everything in my memoir is based on true events.") Sorry about the girly bandage. Maya was in charge of the Band-Aid supply.
We went hiking at Coyote Creek Trail, Silver Creek. It was hot and dry, and the trail was very steep (sandy and rocky surface, too). Luca was sleeping in the stroller, so Mama and Pappa got a lot of exercise. Mama even got quite a few "wow" moments from other fellow hikers and cyclists for her physical strength. ;)
Train, train, train! ( Other days, "Monster Trucks" and "Airplanes")
Luca started his first pre-school day on Feb. 27. Mornings only. He was upset for two days then he loved the school, saying goodbye happily to mama and farmor. His first teacher is Desiree. She's wonderful. Every day, the school sends us a report about his food intake, activities and his mood. Now he has two teachers, Desiree and Tanya, and has about 10 classmates (he's in the age 2-3 group). The school is less than 5 minutes' walk from our house. It has a nice playground, a garden and several animals as pets. It provides healthy snack and lunch. A lot of playing every day. We drop him after sending Maya to school and pick him up at 12ish because he likes to nap at home. He's a good napper, sleeping at least two hours.
Recently Luca started to wink a lot. To females only. Hmm, we wonder where he had picked up this habit. From Pappa????
Pizza day. Maya and Luca love home-made pizzas, and are eager to help. But, of course, they tend to make a mess, Luca making holes on the dough with his fingers, they getting tomato sauce everywhere on the counter and on their clothes, they eating a lot of the mozzarella cheese that was meant for the pizzas. On this particular occasion, Maya and Luca fought over certain task.
Reading Ratzs Kid together. Many nights, before bedtime, Maya reads Ratzs Kids, stories online from her school, on iPod. You can read, you can record, and each story has a quiz. Maya is an advanced reader and she loves reading. She has her own library and we go to the library every week, too, each time getting at least 20 books. We also subscribed two children's magazine for her: Ask and Ladybug.
