Last year, Ray's blog told a story about a bird nest in our home. Obviously the bird's memory is not very good. The bird came back this year again. Dad and mom had previous experience so they only visited their home when the owner was not at home. You could bet it didn't happen often. We missed seeing new bornx as it only took a few weeks from picture 1 to picture 2. But we are happy to see baby bird. In a week, they all flew away.
What dad and mom learned: 1). bird incubation time is short 2). A nest to birds is not necessarily a permenant home. It could be just a 'delivery room'. Good to know these.
Was the birth of TWO birds in our home a superstitional sign that mom and dad's better just have two children, Ray and me? Mom would think so. It looked like a fairly strong indication. Even the bird takes two. Dad would say it's nonsense. Birds have baby birds every year. Could you do that?

100 days celebration
Tony passed 100 day old mark. Mom and dad brought Tony and Ray to Photo Studio. The pictures are on the way. Tony is 18.5 pounds now. And dad is going to trim Tony's hair this weekend.
Now Tony started to smile a lot. He is able to grab one single big stuff with two hands. And his two hands collaborates fairly well. This is earlier than expected. Talking back (a little exaggeration, it should be muttering back) is Tony's favorite activity.
Oh, Ray started learning how to play puppet show with dad. There are going to be a lot of good shows coming for Tony.

Dad opened Pandora's box
Ray had a great Easter. He probably hunted the most egges in his age group. In the early morning, he went to the first of his two hunts with mom alone. Dad was gardening for this spring at home. After a good two hours sleep, I woke up and was ready for food. Dad called mom, but my patience couldn't last for her seven minutes back trip.
Dad need to find a way to deal with it. He figured that everybody should have a little bit joy of Easter, why not Tony. Now it is a perfect timing for Tony to have a little juice, which he never had before. When mom got home, I had about five small tea spoon Mango juice. My response to Mango juice made Dad so proud that he had to share it with mom by making a demonstration and also to show off how great his idea was.
While mom set up and breast fed me, it turned out dad made a trouble. I just couldn't take mom's milk rather than mango juice. I wanted to eat and I cried. Mom wanted to feed me and mom's milk was springing. If someday I turned out to be a great character, my determination had showed up this time. Eating choice was my right. Yeilding was definitely NO. It took more than an hour to calm me down.
That was just a little story of my first Easter.

The big boss in our house
Ray sucked his finger when he was little. Mom and dad didn't mind as books said sucking finger soothes babies. Tony likes to suck his fingers too. But now the rule is changed as we have a big boss in the house.
Yesterday, Tony was laying in his carry-seat and enjoying sucking his chubby fingers. It was a nice warm sunny afternoon. Birds were chirping in the backyard, a little breeze was gently shaking the trees. All sounds accompanying with Tony's finger sucking 'ze ze' were in perfect harmony in our quiet house. Life was good.
Ray saw it . Without a hesitation, he jumped to Tony and pulled Tony's little fingers right away from Tony's little mouth. And Ray told Tony firmly:'DON'T EAT YOUR FINGERS'. Mom didn't teach that. Dad didn't teach that. Who taught that is not important. What is important is that we got a new boss in our house. At least, he could boss Tony around.
Poor Tony!

My hair earned me a nickname
I have a lot of hair on my head. Unlike Ray, my hair seems to stay there pretty well. So I am just getting more and more that Dad is thinking about cutting some. And he also gave me a Chinese nickname '风火小雷神', as my hair all straighten up after I took a bath. I might have 50% more hair than Ray. What is the big deal?
