Stormy Start to the Year

We've been hit (some say finally) by some persistent rain and i-saw-my-neighbor's-garbage-can-fly-across-the-street-strong gusts of wind the entire day. And it's expected to continue right through the weekend and perhaps into the next week as well. Which means I'll have to figure out ways to keep baby and me happy indoors...

She loves shaking her little booty to music so perhaps I could work in some "baby disco" time. She's fallen in love with this book "My Merry Christmas" which tells the tale of Jesus' birth and holds on to it even when she's fast asleep so we could read that over and over and over again. And she likes playing with this big musical toy Grandma and Grandpa bought her for Christmas so that should keep her occupied for a bit.

Can't wait for the sun to shine again - though the Bay Area needs water badly. I also found lots of fun classes we could sign up for at the Morgan Hill community center and I'm rather excited about that. But I'm even more excited about the trip back home. Can't wait to show Kayla what the other side of the world looks and feels like. After all, it's also her home - her citizenship certificate finally arrived which means she's part-singaporean-part-american until she's 21 at least. :)

Yes... I actually have nightmares about the flight and my brains keep playing and replaying all the different scenarios that might happen. I don't think I've ever been this stressed out!
