My life with 2 kids is gradually back to normal. I can handle 2 kids with me when there’s nobody around me. I can also take them out with me too. Yesterday Chris bought me a stroller that can take 2 babies. It’s very handy. I used the stroller today to take them to a playgroup. I miss the interaction with other moms. Colton liked the new stroller a lot. He liked riding it coz it’s new. I had a hard time asking him to get out of it. Colton is now almost 19 months old. He can say a little over 30 words. He knows how to command us to get what he wants. Carina is doing very well too. She slept for 4 hours straight last night from 10:30pm to about 2:30am the next morning.
Carina is so different than Colton right from the start of the pregnancy. I remember Colton used to be a spitting baby. He had hard time burping after feeding. He had lot’s of cradle cap when he was a couple weeks old. Carina is the opposite of Colton. She doesn’t need to burp a lot and she spits much less then Colton. She has a few baby acne on her face and that’s it. Carina is 1 lb smaller than Colton when he was the same age as she is right now. But I think girl is smaller anyway. Oh! one thing in common, they both like water. Carina loves her bath and she never cries when I bath her.
Colton is so good with his sister. He kisses her and calls her ” May May”. He would help burping her after feeding. He never get jealous when he sees me holding Carina. One time when Carina was crying, Colton hold my hands over to Carina and say “Bao”. He wants me to pick her up coz she’s crying. He’s just a big boy now, and he’s a big brother too. He doesn’t get upset when he sees his favourite mobile on the crib that he used to sleep in. I thought he would feel abandon when we switch him from his crib to a new bed. But everything turn out smoothly. I’m very lucky to have a son like him. Or I should say I’m lucky to have 2 kids so close in age.
