lego

March 5th, 2010 | By Kyoko

Immi and her brother are totally into legos. Ashland keeps grabbing a piece and poking immi with it (I think he wants immi to help him stick it on) but she is too busy building her faery princess castle.

The sun has set, and immi is still playing with legos.

Immi made this diorama type thing — she took it to the kitchen, I think because she didn’t want Ashland to take it apart. It’s a princess tea cake party with circus entertainment.

Immi got out this wooden puzzle (I had it put away since it’s far too easy for immi but a bit early for Ashland). Ashland was totally happy about just chewing on it, but Immi showed him how it works and now he is trying to do the puzzle (he is just slamming the puzzle pieces onto the board, but it’s a nice try!). Immi is now supervising and helping along sometimes.

Immi is pretending to be upset because her brother is.

hug!?

August 13th, 2009 | By Kyoko

Immi is giving her brother a hug. She gives him kisses on his head too.

hug

Immi has been a very good older sister. She seems quite understanding when her brother needs my attention, and hasn’t made a fuss over this. She empathises when he is upset (she pretends too be upset when he cries), which is a sweet gesture, but really doesn’t help me because her [pretend] cry makes Ashland more upset:D

Immi snoozing in her HelloKitty palace.

Immi and her little brother. Immi knows that this swing isn’t hers and doesn’t try to climb in, but she likes to turn the switch on and make it swing.

We are at Greenberry’s for Sunday Coffee. The very nice barista made for Immi a free hot chocolate for being cute.

Immi and her dad are swimming. Her little brother is sleeping and I’m sitting by the pool spectating.

home

We are home from the hospital. And immi came home from her grandmom’s too. It seems that immi is warming up to her brother a little already. She’s been standing on pillows and peeking into the crib. You can’t hear it in the photo, but she is talking to him, I wish I could understand what she is saying!

watching

A short while after this, immi pulled up a stool closer to the crib, climbed onto it with her book and read to him!

little brother

We are at Inova Fairfax Hospital. Immi’s little brother was born last night at 9:34 pm. We really wanted immi to meet him so Todd went back to Reston to bring her back from her grandparents just for few hours.

Hospital food here is completely DISGUSTING (far worse than airplaine food!!) Todd brought me back very tasty grilled chicken and rice from a Vietnamese restaurant. Immi is enjoying some rice and cucumber garnish.

There’s no photo of immi and ashland together because only thing she wanted to do with him was to ignor him! …and she ignored anyone who was holding him too. I’m sure she’ll warm up to him and in the meanwhile I’m glad she isn’t trying to bite his head off.
