Ok, I am trying to get all hi tech and create a page to let everyone know what is going on here in California. I don't know how disciplined I will be at keeping it updated but I will do my best.
As you all know, Zoe McCain was born on May 25th at 11:32 PM. She was born 32 minutes after we arrived at the hospital and unfortunately for me, without any pain medication. She is absolutely perfect and Jacob has learned to love her. I say "learned" because about two weeks ago I think he realized she wasn't going to be leaving. I think his favorite part about having a little sister is all the cool new toys he gets to play with...the swing, the vibrating chair, and watching Mommy's face when he wants to "love" on her. Jacob has also figured out that when Zoe cries Mommy is going to hold her. So, as soon as Zoe starts to whimper, Jacob runs to me and crawls in my lap. I think he is trying to "mark his territory".
Brandon is doing very well in class. It is amazing how fast he is picking up the language. I've never seen him apply himself to something like this. He is starting to speak Chinese to Jacob and Zoe. It would be wonderful if he could teach them the language, although it makes me nervous to think that one day my kids may be able to talk about me and me not have a clue what they are saying. I will just have to learn as much as I can with them.
California is awesome! Although, contrary to what some people believe, it isn't always sunny here. Today was very foggy and chilly all day but yesterday was beautiful and about 75 degrees. The produce is incredible! We have made a lot of freinds and are having a great time!
Jacob decided to help make Daddy's favorite Poppy Seed Cake for Father's Day. He is just like his Father!!
This is Zoe's first skirt!
We went to the beach last Saturday and Jacob just had to play in the water. By the way, the water is really cold! Brandon and Jacob played for about fifteen minutes. I decided it was time to stop when I could see Jacob physically shaking because he was so cold. He was mad that I made him stop playing in the water.
Jacob seems to think that Zoe's bloomers look better on his head.
