Rollover


Clara should be rolling over on her own anytime now. She now turns on her side and stops. It sure is exciting to wait for the first time she rolls over. On the other hand, it really means that I must be extra careful when placing her anywhere above the ground. Today, I placed her on her stomach to take the photos below and she toppled sideways onto the mattress and rolls off the bed. Luckily I managed to catch her else she would have bumped her head :( Even Sonya had a fright!



Clara fell asleep on her own when I placed her in her crib last night and a while ago. I wonder if this would continue or if I would have to keep carrying her like I did with Sonya.

This is the 5th day that I am alone with the kids. I am really emotionally strained by Sonya's sudden outbursts. She can be perfectly fine one moment and the next moment, she would be screaming and crying at the top of her lungs. The worst thing is that these episodes are usually triggered by the smallest and most innocent of things, like locking the car door her way. She screamed and cried for 20 minutes just now. She only stopped when she felt really tired and realised that she needed to sleep. My neighbors probably think that I am piercing her with hot needles or dipping her in hot oil for her to cry like that. Even Clara gets scared when she hears or sees Sonya like that and cries herself. I have no more ideas what to do with her. I still thinks that she is such a sweet and nice little girl but when she gets like that...

We were actually watching the videos I made for her 1st and 2nd birthdays. There was so much more laughter and fun then. I need to figure out what happened this past year...
