Nate like going over to the neighbour gege (big brothers) house. Juin Juin is 10 and his cousin is 7, they like collecting fighting beetles and big fat worms, apart from fish and turtles. They also like showing nate their booty and take him on their adventures around their home, which is surrounded by bamboo areas and vegetable patches. On the weekends are when they get to play with nate as other days their schoolwork and tuition classes means they have little time for play.
On Sunday, nate went over to gege's house, he was shown these beetles with big jaws, nate is going through a fear of everything stage and can say the word "scared". At some point he says, pee pee and sow I take him to a tiny drain and he pees with a low arc. Gege seeing this, pulls down his pants and proceeds to make a big stream jet of pee, producing a big puddle and lots of foam. nate seemed very fascinated and now only wants to make big pee puddles and empties much more with less frequencies.
Ike hates the hot weather. He sweats alot and can't sleep well, he needs the aircon and will definitely survive montreal weather. Today after work loren held him till he fell asleep. The other day he had hiccups and I took him for a walk, the breeze and the rustling leaves put him to sleep.
Loren has found us a home in Dainfern, a fenced community with 1,600 homes. Our home plate is number 1811, at least in chinese its a good number meaning sure to prosper everyday. Am checking to see whether it makes sense to buy the house since we will be there for some time. Loren left the pictures of the house in the agents car but described it as about 4,000 sq ft, no funny rooms or carpeting or wierd layouts. I think he said 3 or 4 bedrooms upstairs and one more downstairs. A den area which I will try and turn into the boy's playroom. He has also found a helper who has 2 children aged 6 and 8, who can also stay with us during their school holidays.
The limited reading material that loren brought back is quite interesting, have not found a suzuki music school but otherwise alot of activities. I think I have also found my "print shop". The website of the montesorri school supplier doesn't have table and chairs and I may buy that here. I now have their catalogue.
Today, wendy made soya bean milk, it is very yummy and without preservatives nor sugar. Let's see if nate takes to it tomorrow, he does not seem to like the other drinks that were good for his coughing like red dates and boiled apple.
Nate is making associations that all the lions in different books that he reads are the same type of animal, he puts the pictures next to each other and says "same". He refers to a lion as both a lion and roar.
