5/25 妈妈一回家爸爸带着宝贝来和妈妈打招呼，宝贝直接双手搂妈妈肩上了。宝贝今天可累了，早上给宝贝换衣服还边睡觉。晚上吃晚饭的时候竟然在 high chair 上睡着了。妈妈给宝贝好多桃子，还有一些芒果，宝贝好快就吃完。吃完了坐不住了，所以妈妈帮宝贝洗洗，然后开始吃晚饭又继续坐回去，宝贝吃了一半就吃起拇指来，然后头歪歪的，看起来好好笑，妈妈还叫爸爸快看。没想到等再看宝贝的时候，宝贝就睡着了，真的好可爱。不久后宝贝醒了，爸爸就把宝贝放进房间跟着躺等宝贝睡着，妈妈在厨房洗刷锅碗。爸爸说第一次要偷跑出来，回头一看，宝贝睁着眼看着他，所以爸爸又跑回去何宝贝呆着，等过了一会宝贝又睡着了爸爸就跑出来了。晚上二姨他们过来，妈妈在和燕瑜和美珠视频，美珠说妈妈生了宝贝更好看了哈哈。不久后宝贝就醒来了。宝贝醒来还累累的，趴在妈妈身上差点又眯上了。爸爸给宝贝洗了个快澡澡，然后我们在床上玩了一会，宝贝这会有精神一点可以大笑了，不过宝贝十点多还是可以睡着。
5/24 妈妈回家接宝贝，把 mailbox 里的信也拿进来，回来让宝贝站在玩具旁边玩，把那些 mail 都放一起，宝贝看好多报纸，就一直玩报纸，有的都撕破了，掉到地上拿不到就有脚脚在那勾报纸。玩了一会妈妈过去宝贝那，宝贝就不让妈妈走了，一走开就要哭了。今天好热呀，妈妈把宝贝的衣服都脱了，光溜溜地吃晚饭，这样还省得担心衣服脏了。妈妈做了糯米排骨爸爸煮了米粉，宝贝今天吃得好多呢，妈妈都来不及给剪菜和肉。吃完饭我们跑沙发上看电视，宝贝喜欢玩爸爸的奶奶头和嘴嘴，手手一直扣嘴巴，宝贝也爱这样扣妈妈的嘴巴。爸爸光着身子宝贝手手在那摸爸爸的‘葡萄’，宝贝好像觉得很奇怪又好玩。妈妈给宝贝喂奶，宝贝用牙齿咬妈妈，咬一下，还停一下看看妈妈有没有反应。
5/23 Baby seemed to be a lot better now although still got runny nose and coughing, but she could smile more and interacted more. We ran into the neighbor Kara and Christian, so we stopped an chatted a little bit about the birthday party they just did. Daddy came back in the meantime, and came to us. So we walked back home together. Daddy said he ate too much for lunch and was not hungry. He made some rice noodles and ate a little bit, mommy ate more and gave some veggie and rice noodles to baby. Baby finished so quickly. Mommy gave baby some mango, baby loved it and ate some, but at the end ran out of patient and started crying.Mommy washed you and played with you for a bit. Daddy went mow the lawn today and baby just stayed with mommy watching TV shows. Auntie Emily came over and then we went out for a walk, mommy just held you and talking to Corey as auntie got to go back home do dishes. Baby just played herself on couch when we got back home and had fun playing with daddy and mommy before going to sleep.
5/22 今天去教堂完二姨拿了些精油给宝贝涂，看看能不能帮助生病，妈妈给宝贝涂背，二姨给妈妈涂背， Corey 在旁边看着觉得好好玩。教堂坐一会后我们就去了 Czech villiage， 那里有个 festival 好多人。宝贝下车后坐到 stroller 马上哭得好伤心呀，于是妈妈抱着宝贝走，然后 stroller 给菲菲坐。我们先到旁边的餐馆吃午餐，才有力气走路。宝贝被爸爸妈妈轮流抱着超级乖，老是吃着拇指。
二姨去了一摊卖裙子的，旁边有个画师在给人家画像。妈妈好想画一张，但也没有带足够的现金，于是像二姨借了 $50 然后去画了。宝贝整个过程都在吃拇指，于是画出来的宝贝就是在吃拇指，看着好好笑。一个人彩色照要 15 美金，虽然花了 50美金就画那么张相，但是觉得还是挺有意义的，妈妈每次看到都会偷笑。我们四点多才回家，回到家好累呀，宝贝在车上睡着了，所以把宝贝的 car seat 拿到屋子。宝贝很快就醒了，所以让宝贝躺沙发，爸爸妈妈在旁边。最后宝贝又睡着了，爸爸也睡着了，就剩下妈妈自己做看电视。今天又是很热的一天，爸爸又给宝贝洗个澡。宝贝洗澡可爱玩了，坐在那边一直拍水，水喷得到处是。
5/21 宝贝半夜睡觉睡得很好笑，爸爸起来上厕所赶紧叫妈妈看宝贝睡觉姿势，整个人侧躺直直的，夹在床和 crib 的中间。今天早上妈妈上班，午饭后我们出门去 shopping 就逛了一下午。我们先去 Honda 车行看车，宝贝一直在车里睡觉，他们把车开上来停到我们车旁边，这样就可以陪着宝贝了，这次帮我们的人是上次我们买我们家车帮我们的人，上次态度挺一般，不过今天看上去挺不错的。爸爸试驾了一下车，妈妈陪着宝贝。车看起来还行，不过没有太多的选择，只有一辆。
看完车我们去了Sam’s club。 宝贝刚睡醒还是很撒娇的，一直趴在爸爸身上，脸红红的，看起来特别可爱。买完我们去了 walmart, 到最后结账妈妈带着宝贝到小孩子玩的地方都按摩椅坐着等爸爸，旁边来了一姑娘坐在旁边的按摩椅，宝贝一看到她就要往人家那边凑，这姑娘一直看手机也没理宝贝，就偶尔抬头看看宝贝笑一笑。可是宝贝可能看人家的手机喜欢，一直凑过去。
最后我们去了 Hyvee 买了几包虾，然再后就在那里吃晚餐。外公外婆比较忙，因为是晚饭时间，所以没有太多时间陪咱们啦。妈妈给宝贝吃好多 broccoli, 宝贝吃得可快了，妈妈看着宝贝，宝贝可会对着妈妈笑，指着水杯叫宝贝喝水，宝贝就拿水起来喝。今天好热流了好多汗，回家爸爸给宝贝洗了个澡澡。
5/20 今天妈妈下班回来，爸爸跑过来说沙发上有好料，妈妈就在想说是宝贝，一看确实是宝贝，但是睡着了。宝贝一般不会一回家就睡着了。爸爸接宝贝时MISSY说宝贝今天都没有睡觉，而且也不吃奶。肯定是又累又困呀。不过宝贝也没有睡特别久，等吃晚饭的时候就醒过来了。晚饭后我们去了教堂，吴老师他们回来了也过来了，吴老师一看到宝贝其实挺想抱抱的。宝贝还是和以前一样，自己一人背对着妈妈在那玩桌上的东西。
5/19 Daddy had to go work early because he’s got an early meeting at 7am. Mommy took Charlotte to daycare today. Baby didn’t cry when I handed her to Missy-this was very surprising because daddy said every time he took baby in , when baby saw Missy, would start crying. Charlotte felt better than yesterday. When mommy picked her up, Missy said baby had a good sleep.
When we got home from Missy’s, mommy put baby down play the walker toy, baby enjoyed playing by herself and didn’t cry at all, normally she would want mommy to hold her all the time. Daddy helped you with bath tonight, and mommy grabbed an outfit you’d never wore before and it’s getting smaller now. It’s cute though. When mommy went take a shower, baby stayed with daddy on couch, and at the end, baby fell asleep. when mommy finished shower, daddy got up to grab mommy towel, Charlotte woke up because she was sleeping on daddy. We took baby to the room and she fell back to sleep not long after.
5/18宝贝早上起床都没有声音了，可能是本来就感冒了，晚上还没好好盖被子。爸爸去接你回家，妈妈还在上班，爸爸就发邮件告诉妈妈宝贝今天很不舒服，所以不开心，一直要爸爸抱抱，一放下来就哭，而且还把自己的鼻子刮伤了，爸爸说看了特别心疼。晚上我们没有煮饭，就吃了中午妈妈的炒饭还有些 frozen food， 外公拿了鸡蛋和鸡蛋过来，然后我们去了 Saigon market. 到了店里，大家都在逗宝贝玩，宝贝笑得都停不下来。他们说宝贝是个超开心的宝宝。那个台湾的老板说爷爷奶奶肯定爱死宝贝了，因为这么可爱。回家后二姨他们都在 Ben & Cyndie 家，妈妈就带宝贝去何他们凑热闹，爸爸回家煮鸡爪。Sophia and Landon看到宝贝都赶紧跑过来逗一逗，LANDON 在吃糖，把糖分给宝贝舔一下。宝贝不是玩得特别起劲，趴在妈妈身上吃手指，妈妈把被子盖着宝贝整个身子，到最后大家都回去了，宝贝好像也不愿意呆外面，开始闹，所以妈妈带宝贝回家了。回家妈妈边看电视边吃鸡爪，宝贝坐旁边玩 spoon, 把它塞嘴里放开双手，看起来好好笑。宝贝上次在餐馆也是这样把 fortune cookie 放嘴里玩。宝贝今天很乖，十点多被妈妈放房间，吵了一下妈妈进去哄一两分钟就出来，宝贝自己在房间没有哭，好像很快就睡着了。
5/17 今天妈妈早下班，回来后 Corey 在我们家，所以聊了会天，然后接宝贝去了。回来后给宝贝点零食吃，然后妈妈处理了下鸡腿，因为爸爸说想再烤像二姨上次烤的样子。宝贝吃了好多零食，等晚饭做好了都不怎么吃了，吃完了我们打算出去走走，但看到 Cyndie 在外面，好久没看到她了，我们就过去聊天，一聊就聊了好久。她给我们看 Ben 在弄后院的门，然后给我们看看他们种的菜，还给我们一根 rhubarb。 爸爸得研究怎么做这个。回家爸爸给洗个澡，爸爸说宝贝好聪明，洗澡时候想喝洗澡水，但又喝不到，但发现用书打水，水会喷起来，然后就喝得到了，所以宝贝就一直大声然后用舌头舔水。宝贝真是可爱又聪明呀，不过洗澡水还是别乱喝。
5/16 Mommy doesn’t work today and got up pretty early since mommy slept early last night. Mommy was preparing the meat to make some soup and Charlotte woke up crying. Mommy didn’t go in the room right away though since the meat was still on the stove. Charlotte wouldn’t stop crying after a few minutes so mommy went in to check out. Poor girl just wanted mommy to hold her and nurse her. Baby was still tired after being fed and suck her finger and ready to fall back to sleep and slept until 11:45am until Daddy came back home to pick her up from bed. Baby is so smart now that when mommy was sneaking to take a video of her and she noticed that and turned to mommy and smiled so sweet.
Mommy took baby to day care after lunch and picked her up at 5pm so that mommy could do some cleaning and laundry at home. We went to Fareway to get some fruits and then went to look at Chevy Traverse SUV before we headed to grand uncle Jesse’s house. He was giving daddy his bike over the weekend but forgot to bring back home. YingYing was at their house too. everybody was trying to hold Charlotte, but baby only wanted mommy. Charlotte got everybody’s attention and was clapping her hands and said “baba” many times. Baby would grab everything and put into mouth. Grand auntie gave a piece of biscuit and baby started eating quickly. YingYing was trying to grab the biscuit from baby and baby got mad and switch the biscuit from left hand to right hand- so smart. We went to waigong and waipo’s house after that to get some food because waipo had cooked too much. Baby wanted to eat seeing mommy eating. Waigong was trying to hold you but you cried every time so mommy held you and fed you. We all went to bed around midnight and baby woke up a few times during the night since the bed time’s been screw up.
