Sweetiee



Sorry for the lack of posts, but moving across the world sort of got in the way of finding time to sit down and write about the day to day operation of Baby Bug.
To skip the whole “how our move went”, I am just going to update you on how our two weeks have been since we landed in Auckland. I do have to mention however that Bug did great on our 12-hour flight! She slept through most of it and when awake, she watched her own little screen where Air New Zealand had children programs available.
The adjustment is going ok. Bug had to get used to sleeping in a big bed, spending very little time around kids, living in a large city, the cold weather and walking a lot. When I say walking a lot I mean walking A LOT! Auckland walking isn’t even just walking. It is up hill and down hill walking. Just like San Francisco’s streets.
So far she has made a friend named Elli who is 4 years old and has an extensive knowledge of Dinosaurs and the local Natural History Museum of which he was happy to tell us all about in an afternoon we spent together.
He is a son of one of Will’s new college and they were sweet enough to also invite us to their house last Sunday where we learned that the love of Thomas and all his friends is mutual between the two kids.
We have been also exploring much of the city and the surrounding areas and I can say her favorite part was once again the beach and the great park that is located right next to it.
Ever since we have arrived Bug is eating more than ever. If she could she would probably continuously eat throughout the day. She is pretty good with what’s available and we also got her to eat Malaysian food where she picked up the chopsticks and just knew what to do with them.I think she is a natural born “international” baby!
