It has been a very long time since daddy has to go on a business trip. Daddy found out on Monday that he and another engineer were going on a business trip from Tuesday to Friday. It's in a city in the south of Texas and they took a flight there. Grandma stays with us during this time but I still feel very lonely and helpless by myself with three kids. And we all miss Daddy so much already. Daddy said he will enjoy the time alone because it's like a vacation for him, a quiet time with no kids. But I know he will feel bored and lonely just like how we miss him.

I have been having this upset stomache for over a week now. Sometimes it's acid, sometimes it's gas and sometimes it just hurts for no reason. I don't know what's happening with my tummy and it almost hurts daily. I am now very careful with what I eat, so hopefully it will recover very soon.

Last weekend we had a busy Saturday. We first went to the Richardson library for the fountain festival, and the boys had lots of fun. They petted the animals, fished in the fountain, got balloons, candies, and visited different booths. We then went to the Plano center for another event, where we sat for a concert which was very neat. They performed different instruments from the world and this was the boys' 1st concert. Acacia didn't like it too much because it was very loud. the boys also had fun playing in the sand box. Daddy met his old colleague there but they came too late, they missed the best part.. the concert.

We went to Costco afterwards and saw 淑惠 and her husband and baby. It was good to see her again, and found 卉昕 has grown bigger, with teeth!!

On the Lord's day it was the 1st time I sat in the meeting since I had Acacia. She did very well, sleeping during the 1st hour in the stroller by grandma, so I could play the piano for the meeting. And she was all smiles after she woke up in the nursery.

Acacia is 7 weeks old this week, and she has grown a lot since her birth. She now smiles, her eye sight follows a moving object, and she sleeps very well during the night... which is great for mommy. She can turn her head from side to side while on her tummy, and she can lift her head for a few seconds. She nurses a lot during the day, which I don't mind since that means I get a good night sleep. She nurses 1-2 times during the night without waking up. Sometimes I let her sleep on her tummy, this makes her sleep better and deeper. She still doesn't like tummy time at all when she is awake. Acacia is a lot chubbier then when she was a newborn. I am so curious how much she weighs now... she seems so heavy to me already!

Timothy seems to be more interested in Acacia then Jacob is. He pays a lot attention to her and everytime Acacia cries Timothy is always the 1st one to run to her. He gives her kisses or gentle touches. This morning we will take Acacia to Timothy's class to actually take a bath there.. to show the kids how a baby takes a bath. I am a little nervous about it because I am afraid she will be cold in the classroom. Hopefully she will be ok and I am sure the kids will have fun watching her and Timothy will be a very proud big brother.

Last night Jimmy came for dinner and we all took a walk afterwards in the community. The gentle wind was very soothing but I missed Philip so much because usually he is the one who is either pushing the stroller, or holding Acacia. So I believe a short time away from each other is wonderful in that it reminds us how important we are in each other's lives.
