So A-ma and Gong Gong arrive this morning at 7am and decide to take Ethan back to their place so Adam can get in another 2 hrs sleep before he goes to work and I can get some sleep without hearing Ethan fussing outside of the bedroom. ( I ended up sleeping until 11am)
This would seem like a fantastic idea until I discovered that Ethan was up fussing and crying at A-ma and Gong Gong's place from 7:30am - 12:3opm. Poor guy. Such a new environment without mommy and daddy must have gotten to him.
Right away I nursed him and he fell asleep for three hours while Gong Gong and I went to the immigration office to report my canadian passport stolen- last time we didn't manage to finish the process because I didnt know my lost passport number, get my Taiwanese Driver's license renewed and buy some Avent nipple cream. Ethan sure has good suction. (I swear I deserve an award for nursing under excruciating pain.)
Then we came back and Ethan just woke up so we nursed again but he was wide awake and didn't want to sleep. A-ma and I quicky took this opportunity to get his passport and citizenship photos taken at the Kodak Photo Shop. I'll post the photo- I think its quite hilarious.
Then, Ethan proceeded to scream his head off while in the car seat during the 10 minute drive home from A-ma and Gong Gong's place to ours.
As of this moment, he is finally asleep in the sling, happy to be home in familiar surroundings and smells and I am able to use two hands to type this post.
Now, i'm wondering if I should let him sleep or change his nappy which is emitting a slight odor since he has only has 3 hrs of sleep total today. His soiled nappy doesn't seem to be bothering him though so maybe i'll leave him to get some rest.
Adam has just gotten home from work so i'm signing off. I'll let you know how the playgroup goes tomorrow if its on.
Take care and luv to all
