<\/p>\nMy apologies for the tardiness in blogging! Work has been dreadfully busy, due in most part because of changed responsibilities at work. Over the last two days I\u2019ve been trying to make up for all the lost time I\u2019ve not been taking pictures and writing about Hannah, upon realizing that each day she grows without us keeping a memory of it is an opportunity lost.<\/p>\n
Hannah\u2019s certainly undergoing many changes. She, increasingly, wants her way and with her growing physical size and strength, isn\u2019t disposed against pushing the both of us away when she wants one thing or another! For instance, she used to be perfectly happy to sit on her own when we had dinner in the living room. These days, she\u2019ll insist on sitting on Ling\u2019s lap, and will raise a terrible din when we don\u2019t let her (Mommy needs to eat too).<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Thankfully, she still loves spending time with the both of us. Words like \u2018read read\u2019 are a trigger point for her, and when we let her know we\u2019re going to take time to read to her, she\u2019ll immediately brighten up, and bring us one of her books. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Hannah\u2019s been also experiencing difficulties sleeping at night with the mosquito net. The instant the net comes down, she\u2019ll holler. We\u2019ve been getting by only because the both of us take turns to sit beside her cot, sing, play with her until she feels secure enough to go to bed. We sure hope it\u2019s just a passing phase, though if not, at least I\u2019ve been able to get Hannah to sleep much easier than Ling (Ling snorts in response that so therefore, Daddy should put her to bed more often!).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
