Tears In the Water

 Saturday morning, Mommy was craving dim sum.  K loves the baked pork buns.

Bella was just happy whenever she saw trays of food or food pushed in carts.  She couldn't contain her excitement!

There's a  funny story behind this picture of K and her friend, E from school.  Not sure if Daddy agrees it's funny, but earlier this week E asked K to Menchi's (a frozen yougurt place).

This is the conversation according to E's mom.
E: "Do you want to have a play date with me at Menchi's on Saturday?" 
K: "Yes! My Mommy does not know how to get there."  (granted K has no idea what Menchi's is)
E:  "She can follow my mom."

Mommy and Daddy did not know the two discussed and planned this outing until one morning, Mommy and Daddy dropped off K to her classroom and as they were heading out, they ran into E's mom.  E's mom told Mommy and Daddy, E has been telling his grandparent's, his brother and all his friends, K and him have a playdate at Menchi's on Saturday.  It so happened K was free on Saturday, so the two were able to meet up.  Mommy thought it was cute E had asked K and he planned their meeting place.

On Sunday Bella had her first swim lesson.  This was just a trial class since Mommy wants the girls to have a lesson at the same time.  Bella will have to wait for a spot to open up.   

She was fine when the class started with singing songs to introduce the kids.

But once it was time to go through the tunnel or go her back or when it was time to go to the teacher, she started crying.

The only thing that somewhat calmed her down was playing with some water toys.

It will take a couple more times in the water before Bella will enjoy swimming.  K cried the first few times and now loves swimming. This was the last day with Teacher S who will teaching at a different day due to her school schedule.  Her teacher said she was bummed since this was her favorite class and everyone was so cute.

After swimming, the girls celebrated Auntie Annie's birthday. They had cake and went out for Chinese food.

Bella is sick again this week.  It seems like she is sick every two weeks from daycare.  Poor baby has been so cranky and not sleeping through the night.  Also whenever Bella does not like something or does not get her way, she will burst out with tears streaming down her face and wail. 

Here's our little drama queen in action.
