Just kidding, she has no idea what is happening, other than that there are boxes everywhere!
After 3.5 years in LA, we've decided to move back to San Diego to be closer to family :). We want baby girl to know her cousins, grandparents and great-grandparents, almost all of whom are in San Diego!
As an aside: here is daddy wearing baby's backpack!!
After 15 months, Xinyi finally signs water! She used to sign milk for milk and water, but now she clearly signs water and knows the difference between the two!
Baby girl loves her songs! Now, when we sing "If You're Happy and You Know It" to her, she claps when the song lyrics say clap, and stomps when it says stomp, and raises her arms up when it says hurray! She used to only clap!
She also starts marching when she hears the song about Dinosaurs Marching, raises her hand to make a sun when we sing the song, Mr. Sun, and clicks her tongue to ask me to sing "Hickory Dickory Dock." She dances like crazy to "What does the fox say?" and "I'm a gummy bear" - two songs that I never thought I'd listen to, but baby loves it! And I've already listened to the 100 toddler tunes one hundred times too many :P.
Here we are saying goodbye to one of Xinyi's baby bff's!

Baby tries to zip her jacket together but can't quite figure it out, so she holds them together as if it were zipped up instead. But when I ask her to go to her (high) chair for breakfast, she toddles over and patiently waits to get lifted into her chair! When I say it's time to go, she goes to the baby gate by the door and waits for me to open it! When I say it's time to sleep and she's busy playing, she throws a fit! She understands sooo much!
And the newest thing she does is she gets frantic every time someone leaves the room she is in - to go get something, to go to the bathroom, to throw trash away.... doesn't matter.... separation anxiety!!!
She also continues to climb up sofas, chairs, couches, anything she can swing her leg up on! She's a little acrobat!
Xinyi also loves to hug her lovey before she goes to sleep. It's a new thing that started last week, but has continued strong this week. Every day when she wakes up, she is playing with lovey. Every nap, she falls asleep holding lovey. Every night, I watch her roll around hugging lovey. It's the sweetest, cutest little thing!!!
Well, that's all the pictures I have this week... too many boxes to pack :). Thank you LA friends for a wonderful 3.5 years. We will miss you all! Hello again to SD family and friends, we'll see you soon!
