…Now with Curie and Elia
Curie Bear Song
Curie Bear’s in her jumper chair,
It really doesn’t go anywhere,
But if you make a little sound,
Curie Bear jumps up and down.
Chorus:
Curie Bear’s got a lot of hair,
It sticks way up in the air,
But if you make Curie Bear frown,
All her hair comes tumbling down.

Children are amazing when you have a really rough week. Here are pictures this week that have lifted my spirits.
This month Curie broke the 10 pound mark, somewhere around 10.8 pounds on the Wii though her doctor’s appointment is later on this week.
Erin taught her to blow raspberries, she (Curie, not Erin) says “up-thhh” which sounds like up, so I lift her every time she does it.
She continued her “firsts” with Christmas and New Year’s Eve, and may be teething. Our childcare reports that she can turn over and has started scooting forward. She has t-rex arms so I am afraid she will get rug-burns on her cheeks. She turns all the way around in her crib, and talks a storm. She drools and blows snot bubbles, and is a joy every day.
Curie at three months is almost 10 pounds, going to school (okay, child care), feeds from the bottle and breast (the secret was to feed her when she was asleep for the bottle – child care), has gotten sick (child care) and is a talkative, and smiley little baby.
This month she met her Ah-gong (Albert’s father), Ah-Jiq (Bernard), Ah-Jim (Agnes), and her big
Biao-Jie and little Biao-Jie (Miranda and Eleanor). She went to Niagara Falls (Canadian and United States) and the family went Urban Hiking together for the first time on a Food Crawl in Toronto (though Albert was sick – from Curie – from child care).
On a wonderful fall day, we went out to the memorials to see the foliage with our friend Octavio. He used our camera to take some family pictures. D700 with an 85mm at 1.4. Thank you Octavio!
At two months, Curie is twice her birth weight (if not more) and chubby, rolls over in great anger if forced to, may be teething early, and has learned to get out of a blanket if you throw one over her.
This month she took her first plane ride and saw her great grandparents, switched from preemie diapers to newborn (though it looks like she will skip newborn), went to child care for the first time, and begun to sleep for longer (up to 5 hours).
